IIUC, it looks like Delve lied to YC about stealing another company's Apache 2.0 licensed slopware. This is appatently a bigger sin than selling a product that does fuck-all. I guess they weren't tall enough for this ride.
@dgerard hey, I saw your bsky post and had an idea. Have you weighed in on Nscale and the UK's sovereign scafolding reserve? I hope that it gets noticed by the wider public, because that shit is 10/10 hilarious.

Honestly, the article reminds me of Scott Alexander, but succinct. "Here are several true things and an absolutely batshit wrong thing, presented together with equal earnestness."
The wrong thing being "Believing that LLMs are trash is a mental disorder (not really but wink wink)."
Why do this now, when it's all coming apart? It's baffling.
