Earlier quoted context omitted.

The joke was fun the first time. When the joke posts (low effort AI slop no less!) are spammed to HN every week, it stops being fun.

Its on the front page, that means it atttracted attention and was upvoted. If what you are saying was true, these posts would die very quickly and we would never see them. Maybe its just you who doesnt like them?

I guess if everyone thinks mocking peoples' projects and efforts is funny, it's okay!

My opinion is a weakly that this is tiring and borderline insulting to people who are genuinely looking for feedback and community. Clever once a year or so, but the creator has leaned into it and posted a lot of meta in a small timeline.

This is so damn good that I want to put it between me and the whole internet. At least selectively. Please y'all go build this. An opinionated, tuneable, reader-agent.

That’s it. It singlehandedly sold the idea of an AI browser to you. Like I now want an AI radio in my car, and we’re all putting AI between Google and us because Google’s results unfiltered are bad.

A good Friday morning laugh! I think the tiles are not just honest, they are brutally honest. Some of my fav ones: - Amazon finally adds a feature that has been standard since 2005 - Texas accidentally does something good for privacy Would it possible to add a feature where hovering over a title displays the original title?

I wanted that feature as well. Adds much to the lols.

OK, so the "Storing data in the network ... " title made me remember something. If you transmit a message to Mars, say a rover command sequence, and the outgoing buffer is deleted on the sending side (the original code is preserved, but the transmission-encoded sequence doesn't stick around), then that data, for 20-90 minutes, exists nowhere _except_ space. It's just random-looking electrical fluctuations that are pr…

It's just a fancy form of delay-line memory [1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay-line_memory

you beat me to it - or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay-line_memory in general, space is probably closer to an electrical delay line in practice.

"Do you confirm you are above 18 years of age (or the planet-rotation equivalent in your local star cluster)?" i am so confused, whats the reason behind this little event handler?

The website has been made by AI. May be it has learned from its training that this kind of confirm box is cheeky humor for humans?

Probably because a few articles contain curse words (which corporate filters may hiccup on).
