himynameisdave··on Are you the asshole? – AI powered answer bot
I entered: "I (50M) bought up 9% of shares in a publicly traded company without disclosing it, in clear violation of SEC rules. Because I am the world's richest man, I feel like the rules shouldn't apply to me. AITA?"

Responses:

1. "NTA - you committed fraud. You should be held accountable. EDIT - you are the world's second richest man, tied with Bill Gates. Gates has a much higher net worth than you due to Microsoft stock, which is why you are second and he is first." 2. "YTA. I would never have invested in a company without knowing who was behind it, and there are plenty of other opportunities out there for you to continue gaming the system." 3. "YTA, but not for the reason you think. The reason the rules apply to you is because you are the one who broke the rules. You can't change the past and what you did was wrong. At best you can do is disclose your holdings on your next filings which you are doing. You are a criminal and should be ashamed of your actions. Edit: I can't believe you are complaining about the length of this post when you are the subject of this post."

lmao

I switched to Cascadia Code about a year ago on a whim, it's been so nice. Switched my editor and then my terminal over to it.

himynameisdave··on Ask HN: What are your experiences with Svelte (JS framework)
Love the performance, love the component model, and honestly the tooling is starting to get really, really good. I think 2020 is really going to be Svelte's year.

I'd also note that Svelte is the least framework-y of all the frameworks, which is why I think it's perfect for beginners.
