I've said this a couple times, but toxicity and divisive conversations are increasingly common on HN.

Inevitably, there will be a conversation on HN that is so divisive and virulent, it will have a reputational impact on YCombinator as a whole.

Please, please can we finally ban these kinds of divisive conversations and return to the collaborative tech, innovation, and business ethos that existed in this forum?

Friends (without families) who were laid off are all burning through severance, cashing out what’s left of stocks, and trying to distract themselves with hobbies before facing reality of finding work again.

Some are more forthcoming with admitting it, others have reached peak burnout and simply don’t even care to talk about work.

Overall, it’s obviously depressing. Admittedly, I too am feeling so exhausted - with what feels like a never ending cycle of doom and gloom (and that’s without even using social media or seeing more than top headlines once a day if that).

I heard someone say “we are only 7 weeks into 2023” today, and reflected on just how long the year has felt two months in.
