Once someone creates SmarmyNerdGPT, it's all over for HN.
- _AzMoo 4y agoAsk ChatGPT for a comment, then tell it to "do it again but make it snarky".
- Gigachad 4y agoSmarmyNerdGPT is a pointless product. You could have done this with bash scripts and curl. Why would anyone pay for this?
- Yiin 4y agono one said anything about that being a product
- voakbasda 4y agoExactly. Far too many people just want to watch the world burn.
- TylerE 4y agoWhy write in bash when you can write in rust
- grogenaut 4y agowe all know that the lambda calculus is the only true way to produce software or to think about ruining the world, really at scale. If you're not using functional programming to ruin the world what are you doing really.
- bee_rider 4y agoWe made a snarky nerd AI using bash scripts and curl, but looked upon itself and said “actually #!/bin/bash is not portable.”
- leroman 4y agoWhoever is looking to promote content to HN front page or affect opinions of it’s community..
- karpierz 4y agoThis is so perfectly on the line between satire and genuine, it's fantastic.
- rl3 4y agoI disagree, and wish to determine the precise location of that line for no particular reason, in a thread that continues for days replete with a veritably endless level of pedantry.

- kugelblitz 4y ago1. Regarding the first part, many people want something plug and play. And even if they were plug and play, the problem is that the user experience with debugging might suck, and you don't have AI helpers. 2. There are some unannounced viral parts i didn't get to show in there. Up to x people trolled, tiered plans above that.
- schnitzelstoat 4y agoThis is a reference to the HN comments on the Dropbox launch, right?
- mguerville 4y agoHas to be. It's funny to me as a non engineer that is getting more fluent over time with engineering concepts, to notice that it's not just occasional comments but a good proportion of the posts themselves on HN that are somewhat in that vein. "Tell HN: We rewrote a compiler to run on a Miele dishwasher SoC", "Show HN: a new anti-DNS web browser that only accepts actual IP addresses as URL"
