It's not unkind to point out an advertised low effort result is broken.

You/we have little idea how much effort went into the project or why there was a glitch on the production server at that time. The commenter’s story suggests they have been putting a lot of effort into learning skills and building their project for years. They didn’t name the site in their comment. They were making no claims about it being in production or bug-free. You hunted it from their profile then named it in the comment, apparently as a dunk. If you wanted to help them, you could have worded it much differently.
HN is for people who like to build things, who like to support others who build things, and it’s not cool to sneer at others for mistakes or make dismissive assumptions about their effort.
Indeed, for years, I was looking for a technical co-founder.
I virtually did not find the right profile serious enough for such a role.
I ended up learning software myself after graduating from business studies at university.
Then AI came in the middle of my self-learning journey, I started using it as a software writer. I thought I could 'vibe-code' it into anything I want.
I was wrong.
1. It made so many mistakes. 2. I needed solid understanding of software basics to be able to understand the code it is writing, to be able to architect a complex software for a startup idea I had in mind.
I went back to learning software from reliable non-AI sources. By the time I learnt so many things about software, I gave AI another try.
This time it worked.
I became an AI-assisted Founder & Systems Architect.
But it's only the beginning, AI is non-deterministic!
Happy Coding!
