Josh Constine replied to @firstadopter and strongly disagreed that Dwarkesh Patel content was engagement bait. Constine stated the material was designed to help less technical people understand. He added that it would have required bending over backwards to avoid many of these terms. Constine also noted that engagement bait is not normally published after a long delay. In his assessment the post seemed considered and thoughtfully prepared rather than rushed for attention. The reply came from Constine who is identified as an investor and former TechCrunch editor.
