making the serious accusation of racism without offering any justification for the claim ain't so great either...
The original comment implied that white people were losing jobs to non-white people (it has since been deleted by HN)

Everyone calls X a "dumpster fire" etc, but when I go on there I see see great tech conversations. Database people having fun and chatting about projects. Lots of hackers. A much larger network than bluesky.
You can find good content on almost any platform. The problem is when the negatives become so overwhelming, in your face, and hard to ignore, that you feel like it's moving away from what you want it to be. It's not hard to find good tech conversations on Bluesky, they're just lower volume.

hexator commented on OpenAI to buy AI startup from Jony Ive bloomberg.com/news/articl... · Posted by u/minimaxir
That is an insane amount to hire Johnny Ive. Just to signal to the market that OpenAI is getting into hardware, what on earth could they be building towards. They’ve been writing some big checks off late, these costs will have to be justified soon enough.
The obvious answer would be some sort of consumer AI assistant, like Siri but better.

This is a great way of applying AI. I wish more companies followed suit

In my experience a lot of these kinds of messed up priorities tend to come from managers and PMs, not engineers. A lot of engineers would find it a fun challenge to support old devices and optimize the hell out of your app, but they just aren't given the opportunity.

Sounds like all of this could be solved by not manually paying your rent at the last minute?
Besides the fact that the story is an example, is fully made up, and you clearly didn't read the actual article: what an incredibly out of touch response.
