Kpler acquired them and it's not consumer friendly anymore. They are focused on enterprise accounts only now.

One factor is that people are obsessed with removing any friction in their life that stands in the way of whatever they believe makes them happy at the end of the day. Which for a lot of the US is just being alone and unbothered with a TV or a phone.

Having responsibilities and caring for others is actually good for the human soul. Being inconvenienced is a part of real life.

I’m not trying to convince everyone that they need to have a kid. But from my experience, having kids provides a very deep and satisfying purpose. Not the only purpose. But it does provide one. And it helps cut through the craziness and hurt and vanity of this world.

I built a fantasy football rankings app using claude code, and it has been blowing up in the fantasy football subreddit. Funny enough, it's forcing Yahoo to change their site and improve their layout which ruined all my automation. Surprised how much traffic it's receiving every week just for a better layout.
