Yeah, my interest in giving money to this guy vanished after learning about this. It’s not like whipping up some eink dashboards is a huge imposition in the AI era for anyone nerdy enough to want this in the first place.

Afaik there’s never been any apology or statement, just a careful scrubbing after this started making its way around nerd spaces.

Edit: Sheesh, I was only familiar with the transphobic remarks. This guy is a lot worse than I thought.

Anyone who says that shit publicly says crazier shit privately. Half the quotes floating around came from his resume and courses he was selling. So presumably the more polished material.

(2024) > for example in private i say “fat people” and “retard” and “trannies are disgusting.” the final leap is doing so online. if it costs me, this [new years] resolution was accomplished.

Yea I don’t think an apology is coming. The scrubbing of statements is contextually a funny plot twist though.
