> how the truly skilled will finally have their time to shine.

That's not what I said. I said that those who are already shining, are now shining even brighter. Give a great craftsman a new tool and he will find a way to apply it. If it is valueless, he will throw it away.

For what it's worth, your comment is also an HN trope, the disaffected low-effort armchair keyboard warrior.

Expressing a negative sentiment is a trope now?

Keybored is a trending vibe, yeah.

Is anyone else bored of talking about posting with that keybored vibe? Hey, don’t get me wrong!—I’m not some heretic. I love the keybored posting vibe. Lots of sarcasm, complaining about American geopolitical decisions, recommending socialism on some venture capitalist/hacker forum, absolutely no hint of any Show HN bragging rights or any technical accomplishments whatsover, just lots of complaining in general (but I repeat myself). It’s fantastic and I could not go back to posting any other way. But why are talking about it so much? Why not just live it, live that beautiful vibe, and let it permeate our whole Internet persona—in fact just let it become water around us, like we are fish, something vital to our existence and wholly unquestioned until the dam breaks somewhere.

u mad bro?

Ask an LLM if that was a joke.

I read it as satire.
