 I'm still in catch-up mode but I'll recommend a recent episode of Better Offline, "Hater Season: Openclaw with David Gerard," Dunno if he ever checks Dreamwidth anymore but David is probably my favourite tech writer (no offence to Ed Zitron or Paris Marx or even Cathy O'Neil, who are all excellent) mainly as the guy who is right about everything and funny about it. Sometimes you just want to see two haters go at it and this episode is that. It's a little bit of economics, a little bit of debunking Clawdbot/Moltbot a few weeks before the rest of the world caught up. It's basically confirmation of my intuitive reaction to the hype bubble but they explain why my intuitive reaction is correct.

I'd never have called David a tech writer... but I guess?

(In unrelated Reading Wednesday news, I'm about midway through To Leave a Warrior Behind and I am enjoying it, as odd as it is).
