Luu kinda has a reputation for knowing his shit, for over a decade now. He's not a checks notes games journalist larping as economist, but he does all right.

He may be a good programmer, but I have never seen any interesting article from him. Also, making predictions is different from being knowledgeable.

It is ironic that Zitron is accused of having a cult following whereas Luu clearly has one, here at least.
