Your comment is flagged (I didn't and don't think it should have been flagged FWIW), so I can't see it any more. In any case you might be confusing me with someone else. I'm not the GP.

Not a single question mark to be seen in your comment, nor the one you replied to. I continued on the topic you brought up, "the law" and its relevance.

Why do you pretend that laws matter when the current government is showing every waking second that they do not? To the extent they've been called back by judges dozens and dozens of times, for breaking the law? Yet they keep breaking

Luckily plenty of people are fine with making less profit and not enslaving people, to give one extreme example.

You missed an adjective: literally every megacorp CEO. Plenty of small companies with transparent and honest CEOs. Also why we need much less megacorps than there are now.

In one of the niches I'm in, the top apps that do rank above us are entirely free (we're freemium), so that doesn't entirely track. Your premise holds some merit, but it's not as extreme as you're saying besides ext

What the comments here fail to understand is that even if 80% of these is vibecoded slop, 20% of them isn't (classic Pareto), and that's still a ~17% increase of non-slop. Quite a lot. An LLM being used to generate the code doesn&

Unicorn is indeed an exaggeration but 1-5M ARR doesn't need funding. Most in that range weren't VC funded, as by VC metrics that's considered a failure and they shut down if they can't get past it.

This is so disappointing. Finally we had a fantastic, fully OSS, non-profit harness. Very extensible, well-made, minimal, untainted. None of the baggage of OpenCode both in terms of codebase as well as its.. "passionate" leadershi

Haha, by whom? There are zero higher-ups who are actually getting institutional backing and are in favor of this. Look at how Mamdani didn't even get any backing. Quite the opposite, he was obstructed. And he's 100x more palatable

This post needs to be flagged, this is pure affiliate spam and not at all what HN is meant for. Doubt the guy is even European at this point. An email @ dang wouldn't be out of place either for anyone with the time.

I can tell you that even on HN, most people have still not come around to it. If in a thread about Ellisson or Thiel or their respective companies you point out that Bezos, Zuck and Sama - and as a result the companies they lead and the use
