With my very laconic reply I wanted in fact to convey my congratulations the Lugg creator for their perservance during the hard beginnings of their startup; plus, I strongly believe that the human level of the aspiring enterpreteneur's life is much more HNish in spirit, than endless discsussions circling around running LLM in the basement (or basement-as-a-service) without apparent customers, and somehow strangely the latter seems to be dominating HN comment space. Thanks for listening.

But I get your point, thank you. Although it is kind of scary people read that much between the lines.

Recommend you stop, unless you like coming off as an asshole..

In part, I expect, due to the double full-stop which looks like it might be a miss-type ellipsis. It makes what could already potentially be seen as a sarcastic “cool story bro” response look even more so.

That, and the fact that HN generally disfavours short reaction comments (including, but not limited to, “Me too!”) which add nothing themselves other than perhaps (in the case of “me too”) an extra anecdata point.

Your follow-up post may well be downvoted too, because complaining about downvotes also being frowned upon (it is seen as adding unnecessary noise to a thread).

Try to imagine thousands of people who don't know either you or the person you're replying to reading your reply. If it's meaningless to them, it's probably not worth posting.
