akashskypatelon There's never been a better time to commit financial fraud

It's being perpetrated right in front of us by this administration. They have been embezzling billions in so many schemes:

- Crypto scams by DJT

- Trump Phone

- The whole Tariff Refund Scheme by Lutnick's firm Cantor Fitzgerald

- The billions stolen from Venezuela just recently

- the J-6 "Slush Fund"

- The guy who got the Reflection Pool contract is mysteriously a Mar a Lago regular

And probably many many more we don't even know about.

akashskypatelon Ask HN: I built it and nobody came. What got you your first users?

I think we are in an age where there is so much saturation and noise in every corner of the internet and with the rise of AI everyone is building "disposable" software for their own niche use or what THEY think is new and unique that it's impossible to generate organic traffic anymore. All the "hot" projects are botted to hell with most likely paid promos on places like twitter to promote their project and botted stars on github. Everyone is throwing their own project out in the void and hoping someone will adopt it. I have resigned to just working on what I enjoy and find useful that fills a niche somewhere and just having fun with it.
