You'd IMO, done better to ask what others think is good taste when it comes to a product that's new or being updated.

As to your bad luck, I couldn't say it as well as msalihberk already stated, but also add it doesn't hurt to reply to members if they've asked an obvious question. Unfortunately that reply is marked dead so here's the quote of msalihberk below in case you have not set options to see dead posts.

> "It looks like you're caught in a feedback loop here. Hacker News has a very sensitive automated system for self-promotion; posting the same project 14 times in a short period triggers a 'spam' flag, which results in your posts being automatically 'dead' or 'flagged.'

Additionally, HN is primarily a space for technical discussion. Following up on that with a 'roast me' thread about a sensitive topic isn't just 'roasting'—it’s seen by the community as off-topic or baiting, which causes users to manually flag your account.

The system isn't 'pinning' you to hurt you personally; it’s just enforcing its guidelines. If you stop posting for a while and eventually return with a unique, high-quality technical contribution without self-promoting, you’ll likely find that the system (and the users) will be much more receptive."

In answer to your question, you might feel happy for a fleeting moment, but if you have to ask the question, you suspect that the availability of the web could be temporary ... and it depends on your need of the net, for personal surfing or for business.

Getting even by doing it better. Hope it works out.

Your saga reminds me of [1]

There is little doubt ... very large emphasis on ... eating better / healthier, exercise and good sleep are all part of staying healthy and at a good weight.

Fructose does though make a difference to the digestive systems normal function. I would post the study from a few years ago by a leading US university that basically reaffirmed a study that was published in New Scientist in the late 90s; but there have been many studies / papers published since then that ... well sounds more like folks from the powerful food industry have been busy, but it sure thins out the more useful studies.

However a good example is myself. Recently I switched back from a glucose based sugar to sucrose with is 50:50 fructose glucose when it breaks down in the body. End of 24 I had been 81 kg, about right for my frame but not much fat. I have a dehydration related medical issue ... it turns out the more fat means the body can store a bit more water for times when I don't absorb water from the gut. I was 86 - 87 kg for 2025 ... starting February 2026 this year I switched back to sucrose though laziness mostly (it's also wet season so didn't want to open a large bag of dextrose) ... I'm about doing the same each day, I am eating less [1] but also not doing as much ... my weight sky rocketed to 97 - 98 kg presently. Not all people might be the same. I could also give the long example of how I someone back in the 90s who had taken to cycling to the nearest town 30 miles away - after reading a study, dropped sucrose and used glucose and a sweetener and lost a bit over 25 kg, a lot more than I wanted, not in the expected 14 months but closer to 3 months - I stopped because the bones of my arse hurt sitting on a hard chair and didn't want to carry a cushion around.

Just ignore Bing, when they, Bing, realise they are a joke and mostly for pushing ads, they'll try harder for Ethiopia. Duckduckgo or my browser pushes bing for the top ad results - bing bang boom, it's in my deny list.

DDgo lists many banks using 'bank site:et' ... anyone doing a tech course in your country would most likely be, as bing doesn't work there, ignoring bing bang boom as well.

As for 28 years ... 10 results that's more recent. Google used to offer more results per page until they worked out the more people clicked ... wasted time ... the more ad revenue it made for them.

Otherwise, yes AI can't be relied on making a good summary. I used to till 2015 do research to manually confirm data for various people who wanted to be sure. Back then too many sites and places didn't have the most accurate information being second hand information or the summary was dumbed down and some of the nuance was lost.

If the govt can't provide it cheaper ... and someone does ... it doesn't matter how many customers they do or don't serve.
