why was this flagged and dead? I have no idea, it definitely reminds me of the kind of thing that HN used to excel at, funny and inventive technical stuff. Am I going to do it? No, I'm not in an office with a bunch of nerds anymore so it just wouldn't be something I might spend half an hour doing just for the fun of it.
But I do think there are lots of people here who would think this was really great.
Back to the flagging, I think a lot of technical stuff gets flagged nowadays because people are worried it's AI, at the same time people spend all their time on here talking up AI. I don't know if this is or isn't. I suppose not because this is the kind of thing I would either do personally or not at all and despite all the evidence I have had in my life to the contrary I always proceed from the supposition that others are just like me.
I think I figured out one reason for flagging dead, the account is new, so probably there is new account + post of github new project automatic flag as potential AI slop and hope someone vouches for it?
