alt Hacker NewsMy only direct submission that has gotten any traction at all [1] has made my life a little annoying. I am now occasionally getting messages from people that want me to pay them money to promote my project.
I don't respond back them to them, but I always want to respond with "dude this was something I vibe coded over the course of a week that almost by definition has no means of monetization", but of course it would be just arguing with a literal machine.

There is such an level of assymetry where it takes us effort to suppose even write such a comment but then we know that its going to a machine so to no avail.
And yet the spam messages still land in the mail so what happens is that we just end up being frustrated without any avail which is just annoying and rage-inducing.
