You are right. I came to HN with the desire to make some usefulness out of me, and found the means to do so by policing around, pointing out to the guidelines, flagging random posts, and generally be obnoxious. All with the purpose to raise the standards rather than drag them down on this site. But it turns out I lived long enough to become the villain and if I look now in the mirror I see the very thing I was trying to battle.

tomhow I noticed you ignore messages whenever convenient. The one time someone asks you to do something useful.

This is edging into religious debate, which the guidelines ask people to keep off HN

Would it be possible actually to delete my account + delete my comments or anonymize them? Please, it is my genuine inquiry.

New comment by xkcd1963 in "Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining…Police Pulled Up to Her School"

The video is good, but it's advice about what to do when police want to talk to you. It doesn't cover things you already put in writing. By the time there's a message sitting in someone's inbox, that ship has sailed, and the useful advice becomes "get a lawyer before you say anything further," which isn't the point the video is making. Posting it here reads more like reflex than analysis of what actually happened.

Also, "stupid message" is a swipe, and it's in parentheses, so it isn't even carrying any weight in your comment. The guidelines ask people to edit those out.

This is your intepretation of my post. I did upvote his commentary. There is no need to police around - do something useful with your time

This is an American-Pro forum, you will only get dislikes promoting the idea that USSR had any technology or morality matching or exceeding Western superiority ;)

Just yesterday I was doing paperwork for a friend with claude. He had spend a 1000 usd on lawyer and now I was doing the same job with AI. Never thought lawyers would be subject to partial AI replacement as well.

Big tech companies are a scam in themselves. Doing something useful (that would pay itself by definition) while the main revenue is advertising? really?

They realized all the data on user behaviour is useless after trying to leverage on it with LLMs and now they go after seemingly new riches
