Dumbness is the core value here:

Refactor code with Copilot because you dont understand. Bam, “successfull” vibecoder.

Ask questions like “why has rainbow colors?” or whatever joe rogan said…bam “podcaster”/influencer.

None of them has contributed to the advancement of humanity; instead, they are the loudest grunting in herds.

    Podcasting is a medium. You seem to have come across a certain subsection and made up your mind.

    I’m really heavily into listening to podcasts and I’ll strongly recommend them to anyone. You’ve got to find the right sources. Established publishers have really good quality podcasts. Try BBC, Guardian, etc. The Pushkin podcasts, iHeartMedia podcasts, financial times, Economist, etc can be good too. There are a bunch of good indie ones out there too.

    If you make up your mind with crap like Rogan or the Hawk Tuah podcast or crap like that then you’ve found the worst of the worst.

    There are plenty of good podcasts out there, so this doesn’t really hold up to scrutiny.

    It’s a bit like calling all TV shit because of the existence of reality TV, or all movies bad because of the existence of Hallmark movies

    Some podcasts are definitely just talking about extremely basic things, but there are also really interesting ones as well. In my case, I usually listen to a hungarian history podcast which covers interesting historical facts or modern day issues, like the uyghur massacre, teenage conversion camps in USA, traditional history, like ww2 or anything, and they really go in detail with these, by reading a bunch of different source books about these.
