It was off, it’s LTT. It was intertainment with some interview.

Still, L.T. had fascinating things to say, and a refreshing down-to-earth outlook on things like data storage (keeps no files really, just uploads to git and lets others worry about whether it’s worth saving or not), a.i. (important, somewhat inevitable, overblown hype, horrible business practices), and how he geeks out playing with hardware designs for things that are completely out of his expertise so it’s low stress (e.g. guitar effect pedals but he doesn’t play).

I rather took the comment as clearly saying ‘if they do it to my privileged demographic, how much worse will it be for the people they visually target?’

Many north american GenXers had the same feelings in our 20’s, even though it was a better situation then. Being in the voracious demographic wake of the boomers made scrambling up a tippy ladder seem pointless.

That’s (((they))) or “”“they”“” generally, as a not so subtle dogwhistle.

Just ‘they’ usually means, you know, like, uhh, The Man. TPTB. The Swamp, oligarchs, and sometimes for the Q klan, the globalists, which then bleeds over into anti-jewish rhetoric.

Idiomatic usage of ‘intuitive’ regarding interfaces breaks down into

1. ‘familiar’, so, confusing intuition with knowledge, or

2. ‘discoverable’, which is more accurate and describes things like icons and tooltips and menus, where the rules of usage become more or less apparent with exploration and logic.
