Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

here's another version of the same sketch

a machine is constructed in the form of a pretty lady to present you with a magical answer and the answer is a lie too

and the hand is empty and the style is retro pop art of a comforting past that never existed

now what could the incredibly obvious symbolism here mean, why all these choices

hope our poster never goes to an art gallery, could be fatal

I don't get it. It's like you're saying the sexy robot woman is a representation of seductive futuristic promises of a problematic technology. I don't see how that ties into the article at all.
