jwz gets worse than this on a regular basis. It's not just suggestions from people who don't understand the problem and can't be bothered to learn - he gets stuff where they're not even making their *own* useless suggestion.
The number of times he's posted a specific technical problem, only for Joe Rando to post some nonsensical (or at least non-obvious) long reply of what he should do, and then when asked to explain it says "I don't know what it means, I asked Claude and this was its response".
I don't even get how anyone's mental state can result in that approximating "helpful". I mean, "I don't understand the question you've been working on for days or weeks, so I pasted it into a search engine that had a confabulation module installed, it generated a statistically plausible set of words in response with no understanding of the problem and no connection to reality, and I copied and pasted that as a reply".
Dude, you're not helping. You're the opposite of helping. You're distracting and wasting time while accomplishing less than nothing.
I wouldn't believe (mostly) these people are out there if jwz didn't have them on display for the world to see.
