What's the big deal?
The big deal is that it's honest, and funny, and still kind of crappy.
In good fun, "knows what bootstrap means and likes it" translates to "minority share and you'll be doing all the work."
Bootstrap doesn't mean "minority share". It means "low salary".
Wow, given the line it was on, I had a rather different impression:
Sorry, the parenthesis break the URL detecting, so you'd need to copy/paste. (Bug?)but dude, machine learning! You will eat your words once Sproost makes Strong AI.
And uses it to, um, make interior design accessible to everyone. Just like we all secretly dream to do.
I will eat anybody's words once anybody mankes Strong OR Weak AI.
