Man I understand you. You are right on this particular subject. However if you are so angry it’s probably because of something in your life is wrong and not this person on HN. I am saying this as someone who did have very strong opinions on hacker news and in the end I just feel shameful about it.

Take a big breather and think: « how can I have a nice day? ». It’s not that serious!

I am asking myself the same question. Why didn’t they send it directly to Mercury?

Using “clanker” is the sign of a lack of empathy.

The OP is still in his edgy teenager phase, apparently… yes I know they’re successful; that might actually be the reason why they pick these words.

“Look, I’m so cool for using this neo-slur even though I build AI products! Like I’m so meta you see, I should be LOVING LLMs but instead I use the word clanker! I’m so complex and intricate and yeah obviously I’m not like the other AI users building slop. Cuz if I was building slop I would be infatuated with LLMs and thus I wouldn’t be using the term clanker. And also I’m very well emotionally tuned and suuuure clanker doesn’t sound like n-er to me and if it does to you then YOU have a problem! Oh those Americans and their political correctness! So annoying! But ME I’m different and don’t care about that because I’m HONEST and don’t hide the truth. Suck it Americans!”

Btw I’m not American nor politically correct. Still, I think it’s lame to use the word “clanker” because it shows immaturity.
