The OP of this thread is referring to humanity at large, not just India. We are all in the fight against climate change together.

Yeah, in short, don’t support the NYT. Their business practices are predatory and unethical. Use archive.ph to get by paywalls.

Site doesn't work. Can't recommend them either.

I received the same Alya email. This vibe-coded site was linked. https://mydaughteralya.com/

Lord what stupid branding - needlessly so, as the functionality is not unreasonable.

Infrastructure/platform engineer with 3+ years of experience on Uber's Compute Platform team (though I was sadly laid off in late 2025.) I work on large-scale fleet orchestration and the reliability/observability tooling around it.

Looking for: Series A/B infrastructure or compute teams... AI/GPU infra, developer platforms, or climate/energy/space especially!

“And that part, as I'm learning the hard way, is the part that actually matters.”

Anyone else’s slop detector go off on this sentence? Or am I losing it?


I think your detector is overly sensitive. That sounds like a very common way to phrase a sentence.

My slop detector got pinged.

I'm not saying it's AI. But founder build a platform around this issue and then discovered that this issue is hard?

If it's not an AI-slop, it still shows a sloppy reasoning.

He claims anyone can build what he build, and furthermore that he doesn't know how to actually solve the outreach problem. So essentially he did nothing and achieved nothing and instead only moving on, he decides to double down.

Site menu doesn't work, half of pages are missing, I tried to learn what his plans are moving forward, and couldn't find anything.

Even with AI, if you want to sell people on the idea that you personally can make a site, you should present a site that works.

If you claim that there is a solution, you should present an evidence.

It's not enough to say "everyone can do it with AI". I wouldn't trust a site like that not to leak my info.

Even if it's not AI, it still sloppy. I understand if it was a blog rant, but it's not.


Lots of slop indicators in this article. That’s why I didn’t finish reading it.

If the author doesn’t have the time or care to write it, why should have the time or care to read it?



Regarding your last point, I personally find it insulting when I receive an AI response because of the subtle deception involved. When I am talking with another human via Slack/email/etc., I am under the impression that the messages I am receiving are written by the coworker/person in question. When instead I receive an LLM's output, that trust is broken, especially if it is not made transparent that AI was used to generate the message.

One can be the dominant player in a field and still increase dominance.

The comment I'm replying to is saying that SpaceX will increase dominance despite this explosion which makes no sense.

Pretty disgusting behavior. Total lack of respect for others property. The individuals should be named and shamed for participating rather than putting it under the umbrella of the Bot Company.
