Not sure about the first claim. But yes, talking to the founder, sharing details and having it stolen is not a good look. Sorry that happened to you.

"they copied my idea by showing interest in my product and then copied it". What exactly is revolutionary about Firecrawl or your product? Scraping APIs have been around for over a decade.

Clearly vibe coded like yesterday.

Conveniently running Claude Code while sitting on the toilet?

I imagine it's the same as a police officer asking for your name on the street. They are allowed to ask, and you are required to provide it. There's no restriction of freedom happening. I think it's logically prudent to know who is on a flight.

About 75% of the time I don't get asked for ID at all when flying within Schengen Europe. I understand technically there isn't any border crossing, but they have absolutely no idea who is actually on the plane. Wild.

Wait so when I get treated differently in China due to being white... it's not racist?

You're so far up your own virtue signalling you've lost touch.

Okay. I am also not from the US nor do I live there. I am an immigrant in the country I live in.

No need to be passive aggresive or assume political leanings. I have no horse in this race.

Thank you for your contribution.

Thank you, that helps to clarify.

I think HN discussion should stand alone and not require research to find what someone is vaguely referring to, especially in an emotionally charged comment.

Loving the downvotes on a valid, reasonable question. I'm asking for specifics, isn't that what goes into a good comment here? Or maybe the downvotes are political.

Genuinely curious: what exactly did we see before?

And what will the luck be needed for?

A very vague comment.

The standard playbook. If its not nuclear weapons, it's the spread of democracy, or "helping people". The global police just securing their natural resources, nothing to see here.

It’s satire, a hit at global geopolitics where the US is placed as the global police. A joke, if you will.

I read about this incident in detail even before it was posted on HN.

I think Graviton would still be much more energy efficient though? (I'm not sure)

I believe the main motivator for AWS is efficiency, not performance. $ of income per watt spend is much better for them on Graviton.

Point taken. However, would you say HN readers are an accurate average cross-section of broader society? Including interests and biases?

Classic case of thinking that the use-case HN readers want is what the rest of the world wants.

I guess by this logic we should never have a depression/recession/bubble burst ever again? We always learn from our mistakes!
