Most of the other "tools" posted to HN within the past year are near identical to yours because you've not bothered to consider what you're building and why. You've asked an LLM for a weekend project idea and gone w

The trend is people releasing barely conceived software and products written by language models, backed by equally thoughtless marketing materials written by language models.

You're going to have to work remarkably hard to link your comment to the parent without looking like a disingenuous ass.

I'm certainly observing AI smells from a high proportion of the books I read from O'Reilly and Packt since 2023. Authors don't attempt to hide it and some publish the work as if we didn't have a back catalog to distingui

Why would you presume the parent is "just handwaving"? It's odd how people in the .NET community struggle to earnestly engage in conversation with Java folk. The reverse isn't true.

With all due respect aka_67, your reading comprehension is as low as your bigotry is rich.

That you and other readers can't outright identify the comment as parody is actually quite disturbing to me.

Firstly, your question is not genuine and it's clear by how you've constructed your post. There's no need to put on a facade of curiosity to make a statement. It would somehow be less antagonistic without the question and jus

TFA has a few more tidbits than I've seen elsewhere but it's mostly LLM-induced, hype-driven marketing bilge. A slightly more sober announcement is available at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48352627 .

Good shout, that's what I use. My usage of OpenRouter was limited to casual throwaway experiments with coding agents and quick, surface-level exploration of new and unfamiliar models in the chat interface. My comment is just an express

I've noticed LLM writing over the past year has had an unusually high tendency to talk about surfaces and, in particular, substrates. I don't expect LLM generated text to be anything other than rich with clichés. I simply wish we

Vibe coded product, vibe coded marketing website, AI-generated marketing copy, a testimonial from an AI-generated mascot and seemingly fake identities for the founders. Of course this garners some points on modern day HN. > SprintiQ star

That's nominally true, but a project using shadcn/ui is nearly immediately identifiable as such because most do not deviate from the defaults it (or Tailwind) provides. A UI for toggling border radius and colour palettes isn'

But as mentioned by another reader, that would almost certainly violate the ToS of the web property subject to the automation. It's almost indistinguishable from session hijacking as far as that property is concerned. And it certainly
