Y'all told me Andreesen was smart, Thiel was smart, Rabois was smart, Musk was smart, they have all outed themselves as lucky and dumb. You need to stop assuming being rich and being smart are the same.

@harish turns out being good at programming does not automatically make you smart at life!

@seldo @Red_Shirt_no2 Don’t forget the evil part. Thiel made New Orleans his personal experiment for a mass surveillance police state driven by an algorithm, Musk tried to get an employee killed by cops for whistleblowing.

@seldo And it's actually pretty easy to be rich, if you're born into a rich family. All it takes it not being willfully stupid.A test Musk is failing, these days.

@seldo Y'know what? I never met Andreesen but I know Jamie Zawinski, who worked with/for him and wrote Netscape Navigator (the ancestor of today's Firefox: Andreesen coded up NCSA Mosaic, the ancestor of Microsoft Internet Explorer). Zawinski isn't a billionaire or a VC. Instead of going ride-or-die after billions of dollars he opened a goth night club and late night pizza joint. Nice guy. I wish Thiel et al had copied him instead of Andreesen. We need goth night clubs more than billionaires!
