Jonathan Blow slams rauchg's hand-built record player: "built with WebGL2?!"

Jonathan Blow quote-posted a web record-player simulation by rauchg (Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch), fuming: "How do you go through the effort to simulate a record player and then say 'built with WebGL2 and Web Audio'?" — a jab at how projects rush to brand themselves with AI while genuinely hand-crafted work stays modestly labeled. teropa called it a "terrible take," defending honest craft attribution. The spat captures the era's anxiety over crediting how things are actually made.
