I keep seeing this comment. This is _hacker news_ where, back in the day, people just hacked on things, because it was a hobby. They weren't "moneymaxxing" or desperately trying to be as insanely efficient as possible. They hacked on stuff with a can of surge at 3am because it was fun.

Your comment is like a meta comment of "LLMs are generating everything, after a while the ouroboros will eat itself. (Which I agree with)" If people aren't hacking on this shit just because, you have completely conceded control of software to a handful of sociopaths, and open source software is dead.
