You went to the effort of posting 2 HN comments, tweeting, and taking a screenshot because you are annoyed that this project used an open-source library and were transparent about doing so.

I didn't know it was open source. I thought it was a ripoff.

A ripoff of the visualization layer? Even if it was, who cares? That's not the work. What's next, you think a new chess engine is a ripoff because they use a standard chess board for visualization? A new protein prediction model is a ripoff because they use the standard visualization?

There's a long precedent of knockoffs, scams, and skullduggery in silicon valley.

The answer isn't to not even read what they are doing and just assume the worst.

They edited the post.
Regardless, you're just trying to personally attack me. That's a great use of both our time.

It was rhetorical. And telling you that the answer is not to assume the worst without reading what they are doing is not a personal attack.
You are out here implying these guys are a fraud. Being told to pull your head in is not personal.
I took a screenshot in case they change it. Nullschool is 10 years old btw.
