I'm thankful to HN because I got my last job because of it, but most of the discussions and comments there seem to be from bots or two-legged duning-kruger effects so hoping to have a sane discussion with actual smart people is kinda rare unless you find to manage a topic that is not about ai stuff, politics or CS.

You can find there all the cringe stuff from ai proselitism ("thanks ai because I can do my website for free in no time without having to pay thousands to a web designer or developer!") all the way up to antivaccines weirdos ("lockdowns were a joke and the vaccines were proven to not work") and even xenophobia and chauvinism ("go back to your weak country"). Yes, all of this quoted sentences are from the top of my head from HN from the last few weeks.
