I always wonder what GitHub has that Codeberg doesn't. It's a shame this isn't as popular. It seems like developers, of all people, are willingly letting their code be AI piggybacked.

Exactly my concerns as well. If we're indeed heading toward “ask AI first, humans later” model there's potential for a slippery slope—one that could be exploited depending on which regime happens to be in power. If politicians or special-interest groups can manipulate or curate AI-generated “opinions,” they could present those biased outputs as if they were genuine reflections of their constituents’ views. Over time, the line between authentic public sentiment and engineered AI propaganda could blur, undermining informed democratic debate.

Make it decentralized. You could implements atproto protocol by bluesky you could get some traction with publicity. Oh and by the way stay clear off anything hinting your political leaning (Make 'something' great again?).

Hey Friel Family, I just wanted to reach out and say how sorry I am to hear about John’s passing. I didn’t know him or his work, but it’s clear he made a significant impact on many lives. Losing someone who has touched so many people is never easy. Even though I’m a stranger, I hope you find some comfort in the memories you shared and the love that surrounds you during this tough time. Sending you all my best wishes and support.

I'm not familiar with politics in Brazil but aren't the last guy that run the country some called him Brazil's Trump? From what I'm hear that guy is worst than the current guy which is from my perspective seems moderate. Any Brazilian care to clarify objectively?

Ah, the beauty of a powerful mind. As our high school dropouts are setting in their labs adding lithium from used cell phone batteries and Sudafed from wherever they can get it to cook a batch of methamphetamine for some quick cash, our most esteemed scientist are setting in their labs adding zeros from “zeroes unlimited” and “fuzzy” words from “scientific thesaurus” to cook up another grant for some quick cash.

After rereading the above paragraph I thought it to be too negative, but then I thought, “If indeed this is only a projection of a 2D reality then 3D movies are not really in 3D and I just paid way too much for the popcorn”.

I'm interested about this bit:

If you are too early-stage to have functioning software, mockups will at least let you show that you have good design and product sense.

I want to know if this is really the case here. I have a feeling that YC only accept established working prototype, not just mere interactive mockup that look plausible.

Can somebody vouch in a mere mockup application that has been accepted?
