> Sounds like you were posting about politics so the flagging was appropriate. You also were asking about TL;DRs which are explicitly not on-topic on HN. I'm not sure you've grasped the culture here to be honest.

The person who first called me clanker called it on an AI related post not on a flag related post. The flag related post was where we were talking about the distrust and where I later posted about on and someone followed that comment but couldn't see the previous so he called me clanker again

Although I admit that I may have mixed two of these flag and clanker stories but they are individually seperate (or that's how I intend it to be)

Apologies if that wasn't clear.

> You are over-valuing HN. A good comment here doesn't get you into college. A bad comment here doesn't change what your employees will think of you if you have some in the future. Overall, HN is not required to model itself to your desired topics and conversations. While it is a really decent place that many of us enjoy, it is still just a discussion board. And one that works exactly because the community monitors and moderates it.

You are probably right but also, it's not only about these things but rather in the whole scheme of things, I wanted to atleast be a legible source if I ever post something here and I still enjoy the discussions. Of course I may have gotten sentimental a little but I deeply enjoyed Hackernews but right now, even not related to politics. The system does fall apart on every AI/Political issue which are dominating the headspace (some of which aren't flagged but I hope you get my point)

> And one that works exactly because the community monitors and moderates it.

I understand ya but once again, apologies if I wasn't clear but we are on the same page except even flagging aside, people are genuinely distrustful of each other and someone had even compared Hackernews to 4chan and I tried to defend against it but nope, I do feel like its becoming 4chan atleast.

> If you don't like the moderation and truly feel wronged, email the mods at hn@ycombinator.com.

BTW, Odds are this post will also get flagged because complaining about flagging is another topic that is not interesting.

Once once again, the two things are somewhat linked but that's okay about flagging, thats a different issue where the community has been vocal about.

But the point (or what I want it atleast to be) is that people call clanker or AI or there is this distrust that the other HN commentator isn't in good faith or is a human at all. And I think that the community is quickly turning to degeneracy in many instances


No I didn't. I have played retro pokemon games though

Also not sure how it's relevant to this discussion extremely at all so yeah :/

PS: (it's okay that the commentor might not have created a decent comment but perhaps we can talk about retro pokemon games in here to atleast be a better spirit than complete waste of time, what's your favourite pokemon, mine's ampharos from pokemon silver. Ampharos + (totodile's last form fredigilator?) combo is one of the best in the game and you can actually defeat whittney johto (from the original which is considered one of the most hard challenges by many) rather easily by this combo. Hope this could help even one person xD


My intention about current political issues wasn't to be political. I posted it when I found some news pretty early and discovered that the previous post was flagged.

HN flagging is much of an issue too where you can observe in those threads. If you want, I can share the link perhaps.

The news of US blocking 75 countries have true deep economical impact and I dont even know how it got flagged since its a massive news development and something which impacts the valley and so many other people and I genuinely just wanted people to know and discuss about it similar to other posts (which didn't get flagged but I would consider more controversial??)

I just straight up don't know about this dual hypocrisy I witness in Hackernews. Your comment is still extremely good (compared to the two others one of which is a bot and the other called about xbox??)so I"d love to continue this discussion

> Good luck with your journey and have a nice day yourself. Thanks!


Okay what the actual fuck.

I comment about the problems caused by AI and bots and you create a new account just 2-3 minutes ago just to post on this and your about me tries to refer to Hi X where X is some AI tool itself which I don't even want to name which tries to remove humans from pictures

THE IRONY IS WRITING ITSELF. I swear, this is messing with my head right now. This can't be real.

Edit: looks like they are flagged now. To just say this, they had responded with just "cool" 2 minute after I had created the post


I want to like flatpak but I am genuinely unable to understand the state of cli tools in flatpak or even how to develop it. It all seems very weird to build upon as compared to docker

Create a symlink to .env from another file and ask cursor to refer it if name is the concern regarding cursor (I don't knowhow cursor does this stuff)

I am a stauch cryptocurrency avoider (most are very scummy) but I once was in part of tournament and got some crypto and so I just converted it into gold stablecoin. (partially because cashing out was/is hard and I am a minor)

I am not kidding but the whole crypto market has bled so much when I have been in like +20% or something. Its crazy.

I highly recommend Paxos gold but I had around 100-200 bucks and hte isuse is of Ethereum 7$ gas fees which I shouldve known (I usually use polygon usdc 0 crypto bs only stablecoins)

I think Paxos,Xaut are some good options and there are probably some neobanking solutions to this as well


> stauch cryptocurrency avoider

as a staunch avoider you know and do quite a lot in the space!


Well I am avoider because I feel like people necessiate that interest in tech or tech being cool === profitable or some thing

I have built cryptocurrency related stuff (usually for free) out of just mere curiosity on proving systems and other solutions and that's how I know some things

In fact I was just curious about proving something and then I took tournament just to explain that and got some simple but nice money (25$) which made me get to more tournaments and other things haha

Moral of the story is to be reasonable with your money and if you still wish to invest, invest in your companies/projects.

That being said, stablecoins are still pretty lucrative. I follow only stablecoin news because I find the idea of remittances etc. interesting.

I usually follow https://stablecoininsider.org/ but holy cow they write texts with LLM's and that sucks imo and I am following them less and less.

I just like the idea of stablecoins though because it can genuinely open up new possibilities if done properly

Even then when I was building my first such project, I actively avoided crypto but I just wanted to prove it lol and actively wanted to look for other projects

(The idea is basically using nano zero fees coin with vanity link generators and looped transactions to permanently store very few data (like bytes) free of cost in blocks permanently, useful in proving identity of someone who wrote something while providing a timestamp when it happened, thus nanotimestamps)

Nothing is being built on it even though I think the idea did have potential but eh, I am happy lol. I am a stablecoin fan usually/traditional finance fan of index funds because I wanted to go for finance field for so long and read books about it I guess


Yes but also nobody's absolutely forcing you to keep your money if you feel like stocks are in turbulence

In fact you win even more if you feel like stocks are bubbly and wait in say gold or short term and you buy more stocks when they are cheap

Also US stocks have underperformed compared to EU when you take all factors into account and all US stocks have rather been focused on AI hype which once again is a bubble which will fundamentally break the US economy.

It's like saying 2008 crisis still made you money long term

Sure if you are 20 years deep and even then nobody could've predicted what happened. The sentiments were extremely low

I am one of the biggest index funds advisors usually and that's when I read finance books and wanted to go into finance but genuinely felt like index funds are just so great that the need is very low

In fact I must admit that I dislike saying Gold but its genuinely one of the best assets (although it may be overvalued now not sure), another investment is specifically globalize your index fund portfolio to extreme/exclude US. In fact if possible bet on index funds on the opposite side of AI which most likely feels gold and yes, I am a little sad about this fact but rules of the game changes at points of extremes so gold is valid option right now


> you buy more stocks when they are cheap

but they are unlikely to be cheaper in the future than they are right now (https://www.guggenheiminvestments.com/advisor-resources/inte...).

so if you have the money but defer buying them, you lose out on the time value of money.


I understand this but realize that there are dips of almost 25%

I invest in Index funds for peace of mind as well. That the market remains reasonably happy/sad and I can be for the long run.

People discount this fact but imagine your concerns if you feel like 25% of your savings just evaporated because a guy ten layers detached from you burnt all the money on AI compute and there is no moat (Ahem ahem)

If you don't want peace of mind, people should angel invest or build their own side hustles but then you are getting some savings anyway and its better to invest than keep it in banks (once you have a safe amount saved)

But if you are saving money and still facing 25% crisis. Yeah...

I understand where you are coming from but if you can expect a 50-75% dip in market this time (some companies are 2-5x overvalued just because they slap AI, their P/E ratio's straight up just don't make any sense at all!)

So if you are willing to consider such dip for unforseen amount of time for unforseen returns in future when you can get a pretty safe investment for X amount of years being very liquid and historically in such times there are times when bond prices have been larger than stock prices

If I remember correctly, Intelligent Investors suggests an intelligent approach towards this (in one of the starting chapters of the book)


> but realize that there are dips of almost 25%

Does that change the basic logic and strategy? I don't think so, given that it isn't possible to predict WHEN the market will drop, by HOW MUCH, and for HOW LONG.


Yes I agree, I mean in the sense to stop investing in S&P 500 entirely and much rather focus on international market index funds

There is no free lunch, people who argue that S&P 500 historical returns and the over concentration into tech stocks has more risk than people believe leading to thinking of free profit

I would still call it a foolish errands if you are unable to keep your calm and composure if american stocks can fall 50% - 75%

If you are okay with that and then sticking your profits for 10 years or so afterwards to then get your money equal then sure

People forget that japan's markets got into a stand still for 30 years to make net profit. Researching about japanese documentaries pre and after that time can just show you the devastation

I personally recommend investing into world index funds if possible. Its your savings not your gambling money. Even 25% is devastating.

Even John bogle says that the difference between S&P (US) and international is minimal giving fairly similar but he was more nationalistic but seeing the current geopolitical and economical blunders by america, I wouldn't be surprised if he might change his stance

Rest in peace John Bogle, you will be missed.


P/E ratios rarely seem to make sense and yet people have been making money for a long time buying stocks with crazy P/E.

Just because people have been making money with stocks with crazy P/E historically doesn't mean that its meant to continue

Especially when you realize on aggregate, Companies long term have to reflect profit and less P/E otherwise if your stock index fund has larger P/E ratio, then you are absolutely taking on higher risk

There is no free lunch.

You are also forgetting that the reason the extrapolation of stock markets growth from historical data correlates to future data is that there is a benchmark of productivity underneath it all. Stock markets theoretically grows when productivity of all businesses in an economy improve which can improve due to scientific and economic reasons and the faith in the system that it does improve

Quite frankly, if you can't observe this, do not invest in index funds but rather something else which can reflect some amount of productivity (Short term bonds are needed by govt to improve life of the people so that they can pay more taxes in aggregate and improve conditions thus improving productivity as well)

I recommend the book Intelligent Investing and The little book of common sense investing by the legendary John Bogle (May he rest in peace)


wow. ACP is used within zed so I guess zed is safe with ACP using claude code

I wonder if Opencode could use ACP protocol as well. ACP seems to be a good abstraction, I should probably learn more about it. Any TLDR's on how it works?


According to Opus, ACP is designed specifically for IDE clients (with coding agent “servers”), and there’s some impedance mismatch here that would need to be resolved for one agent cli to operate as a client. I havent validated this though.

—-

1. ACP Servers Expect IDE-like Clients The ACP server interface in Claude Code is designed for: ∙ Receiving file context from an IDE ∙ Sending back edits, diagnostics, suggestions ∙ Managing a workspace-scoped session It’s not designed for another autonomous agent to connect and say “go solve this problem for me.”

2. No Delegation/Orchestration Semantics in ACP ACP (at least the current spec) handles: ∙ Code completions ∙ Chat interactions scoped to a workspace ∙ Tool invocations It doesn’t have primitives for: ∙ “Here’s a task, go figure it out autonomously” ∙ Spawning sub-agents ∙ Returning when a multi-step task completes

3. Session & Context Ownership Both tools assume they own the agentic loop. If OpenCode connects to Claude Code via ACP, who’s driving? You’d have two agents both trying to: ∙ Decide what tool to call next ∙ Maintain conversation state ∙ Handle user approval flows


opencode acp -- start ACP (Agent Client Protocol) server

WHAT??

Edit: I may have been rude previously but I was feeling beyond angry because I have tried to be a part of the community and I don't even know what to say

I genuinely am speechless. I think its so sad to see HN community be unable to trust and how you accuse me man which is so sad to see.

I genuinely just don't know what to say? I hope you are (jokng or something?) but what sort ofjoke is this?


Well I created this post but I wasn't given any reason as to why :/ I hope that this or the other post can get un-flagged by dang

@dang can you please look at such to see if there is a particular reason they got flagged, because I don't think these break hackernews guidelines and a lot of people on both threads simultaneously are asking the same questions

mistakes happen but please fix them if possible (and thanks if you do so) and if you do keep it flagged, please tell us the reason why and we'd be more than happy if we find the reason reasonable ofc.

have a nice day dang and looking forward to your response
