A significant fraction of the people commenting on HN believe themselves to be the next Jeff Bezos. They cheer for the boot that crushes them, as surely one day they themselves will own that boot.

I recognize this style. Shame they stopped posting their weekly hackernews sneer.

‘Dead rop’ is a really dumb name.

Kagi was founded as an AI company so this is not surprising. I unsubscribed from them after learning that. Also, their CEO is a weirdo who harasses people critical of their product and he thinks the GDPR is optional.

Neat, but sad to see that it is permissively licensed.

This fucking thread on HN right now.

OP is an enlightened freelance webdeveloper who is very scared about ghosts from their computer.

“I find myself in a unique position here, as my diverse background and experiences have given me a perspective that allows me to see the potential impact of AI more clearly than large parts of the society I’m living in”

Another poster is also very scared about ghosts from the computer and converted their entire net-worth into NVidia shares. Now that they are heavily invested in a company deeply entangled with ghosts from the computer the apocalypse basically has to happen. After all it couldn’t be that they overreacted.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they introduce another subscription tier at some point that features Ads or worse. Then, at a later date, they will gradually raise prices across the board so the new subscription tier becomes as expensive as the current one.

I guess Roll20s subscriber numbers plateaued and they are now feeling the pressure from dnd beyond. Buying a competitor is probably the fastest way to bolster their customer count.

Or he is trying to get ahead of some news. Maybe a journalist contacted him about some serious allegations. So now he joins up with Musk, comes out against the ‘woke agenda’ and when the news releases, he can claim its main stream media silencing him.

I looked into Zig because it seemed interesting. I like the idea of a safer C but the compile errors for unused variables pretty much killed my interest the second I encountered them. I could accept this if there was a compiler flag to disable this behaviour but no such flag existed. I have no patience for languages like that so I went back to C++ instead.
