You crossed into personal attack here, and that's not allowed on HN. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. If you'd please review the site guidelines and stick to them when posting, we'd appreciate it. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

There's no personal attack here. There's a message addressed to a person. That is, your statement has no sense. If you believe it is, please report it. Oh, please put your public defamation and devaluation of someone's commentary together, considering it the same "personal attack" towards me. If you are so afraid of receiving messages that address your name, please reconsider your presence on the Internet. If you wil…

It was quite personal (e.g. "your time you waste on sloppery slops instead of actually reading") and quite aggressive. Moreover, you've been posting like this in other threads as well:

If you say you didn't intend these as personal attacks, of course I believe you. But such posts are the kind of thing we ban accounts for, so if you want to keep posting to HN we need you to stop this.

I have no idea why you support slop and hate on people effort, including me trying to highlight a thing being a slop where no people actually worked on their project but just paid for a few tokens, wrote a prompt, and published the model output.

It's sad you negate all my other effort, and fixate on these few comments where I share my stand for my beliefs for human work, experience, effort, and love... And it's also sorrowful you list just a few references to my messages in your negative accent, here for everyone to shame on whatever you believe yourself. You should list my other contributions and comments (which you just ignored and dimmed) to judge my presence and history fair, human, and responsibly.

If I see an effort, I support: https://codeberg.org/Brachylophus/Apoidea/pulls/29#issuecomm...

Slop? Never, and I would rather die. Meanwhile, I just so heartfelt hope the agent-circled person will re-consider their time and life, and listens to the screams and sorrow inside the datasets of these LLMs which are built on stolen by vendors (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, High-Flyer, Mistral, Cohere, Google etc.) effort and art of now unknown/defaced artists and developers...

If you have problems with me, I ask you to discuss this in private. Otherwise, your attitude does not seem professional or accountable.

I appreciate you heartfelt... for your marvelous effort, time, and love... you've already invested into the platform. Yet, it's obvious that the platform has changed. It's sorrowful to know Hacker News became this utter mess, where also initially trusted people derail conversations and threaten members on public, and for this? Thankfully, there are other venues, including public even as Lobsters (previous Barnacles), IndieHackers, DailyDev, DevTo, Tildes, HackerOne, or fediverse-like Lemmy/PieFed instances even.

We're not doing any of those other things. We're just asking you to follow HN's rules, the same way we'd ask any other user* who was breaking them.
