Ask HN: What's the account age threshold to submit Show NH?

2 pointsihateaislop23 comments

I'm trying to submit my 3 year old, non AIslop FOSS project to Show NH but I'm hit with the following error message:

>We're temporarily restricting Show HNs because of a massive influx, mostly by users who aren't yet familiar with the site or its culture.

>You're welcome on HN! Take some time to get to know the community, become a good contributor, and then it will be fine to post an occasional Show HN.

What's the minimum age threshold, then?

There's a more fundamental problem to deal with first: your HN comments have been breaking the site guidelines so badly that we've banned the account. You simply can't attack other users here the way you've been doing.

If you want to review the site rules at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and build up a track record of participating in the community respectfully, that would be the way forward.

Forget age, contribute insightful, productive comments: in other words participate in the committee rather than try promote your thing. The latter can follow later.

The problem with this is I'm searching like crazy for relevant posts, then I see some, I post on them, but I feel like I'm inflating HN with non-important posts specifically for the point of being able to show off my thing. I feel like I'm diluting HN because I'm a person who only speaks when I have something to say. I don't like forcing myself to comment on every post that I can say something on because it feels like I'm just adding noise not signal.

Same question. I've been working 14 hours a day for 3 months on something and I'm finally ready to show it.

Ngl though I checked your profile and your project is 0 value aislop

I didn't say it doesn't work; I said it doesn't add value. There's billions of local slop models.

Your work? You mean AI's?

Qwen 125b a6b with consultation with an 80b a3b model using a recurring loop. The whole point of the project is to get off the cloud, which is noble in itself-- running on my own custom daemon I might add

>which is noble in itself-- running on my own custom daemon I might add >-- LMAO did you write this with AI?

I've been writing chose your own adventure games in basic (if "y" then line 20) since I was 9 years old on an TRS 80 in 1988. I know code. AI makes shit sooo much faster. I never went to school because I never had support, but that doesn't make me less capable.

You can't even properly follow a conversation thread on hackernews, your "capabilities" are dubious at best.

Last thing to say. not to this dick but to the people feeling guilty about using AI for coding. AI Coding is here. It's a genie that's not going back in the bottle. If you're not using it as a tool you're obsolete. You can sit in the corner writing code by yourself for 14 hours for a basic calculator app and feel proud about it because you built it all by yourself. No one will care. AI can make that app in 10 seconds. While you're sitting there feeling superior people will be making impossible things and leaving you in the dust with your calculator app. If you want to see what's possible: Yanahchat.com

Also Zero more replies to you unless you look at the code and criticise an aspect of it, and don't roast me on non cleaned up code because I'm going for speed and functionality over a clean workspace

Please don't respond to bad comments by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes things worse.

Not sure why "reply" is not an option on your last reply, but no, It's my work. 14 hours a day for 3 months is my work. I give zero fucks about your opinion on my methods. Again, my work stands on it's own.

Asking a LLM 14 hours a day for 3 months is hardly work. And my point is that your little LLM slop project doesn't fill a niche, it's just generic local slop, I'd hardly say it's deserving of a 'SHOW NH' post.

I see what this site is. A troll trolls me, I defend myself, you ban me. He called my work AIslop. I strongly defended myself but a strong defense is not an offense. I kiss no ring in order to give you a gift. The level of "I don't fuck with that" is unmeasurable. Have it.Have this site. Wallow in the mediocrity you foster and enjoy your perceived power - the power to squash innovation and gatekeep ideas. Enjoy talking about Politics and all the other nonsense I've seen here get 400 comments while something legitimitely interesting and helpful gets banned. and enjoy passing on all the legitimately interesting projects you are excluding from your own sense of moral superiority. I fuck with this not. This whole energy, this whole system, I fuck with this not. Rot amongst yourselves, I've got genuine interesting work to do.
