Didn't you guys just make rules about using AI to comment and post?

> Don't post generated comments or AI-edited comments. HN is for conversation between humans.

Maybe you need to read your own rules: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

This guy is as blatant as it gets, and you can't/refuse to enforce it. Obvious AI writing with all the tells. Your site is going to crap buddy go select which rules you feel like moderating somewhere else and ban me. Never going on here again, enjoy your AI slop.

> Just look at the freaking mess that is trying to proof your identity in the US.

Care to elaborate? I'm not sure what's a mess about a driver's license, social security card. I've never once had any issue with my identity.

I mean the title of the post claims it can create full games, it can't. Its not even close?

People are really amazed at something excel has been capable of for like 30 years now. PowerBI/Tableau are free and do much more. Making charts and diagrams is impressive or a selling point now? Am I missing something here?

I think this is correct. It was common across all SaaS products id say right before LLMs and as LLMs were taking off.

So frustrating that news from my area one here is ever positive. West Michigan has a booming tech scene right now and clearly companies like Stryker need talent. Its LCOL here and the jobs are there for tech.

Sometimes I do genuinely feel sorry for those chasing the dream in Silicon Valley. Its much like Hollywood, where young talent can be taken advantage of easily. The Midwest has its problems no doubt but my lower pay = LCOL and less stress (I know there are plenty of good companies in Silicon valley)

What about in the cases of satire? I make a joke about the holocaust not happening in a comedy club in Berlin, is that illegal? I think with it being such a slippery slope is why Americans take the stance they do.

I understand what both of you are saying, I lived in areas where if someone is talking to you on the street theres a high chance theyre asking you for something, so you learn to just kinda block all of it out. Now that I moved to a smaller town, I find myself talking to strangers much more frequently.

Im not sure how the tech works, but they mimic ATM transactions at the POS system & then round up the transaction giving the customer cash back.

This keeps things legal here in MI with a lot of potential for middleware software (between the dispo & bank) that automates compliance reporting that is required by banks. Shops that offer POS systems have competitive advantage still but that may no longer be the case.
