I had GLM-5.3 in OpenCode make this while I drank Guiness 3 through 8. Then I posted it to HN before bed, thinking a couple other people might get a kick out of it.
~250k requests and a brief stint at #1 later, and I'm amazed that my 2 RTX-4060ti's haven't collapsed under the load. The model is an abliterated version of Qwen3.6 35B running on my PC. (qwen3.6-35b-a3b-uncensored-hauhaucs-aggressive)
So anyway, it's just a fun satirical sort of protest directed at the absurdity of it all. No attempts to monetize have been made or will be made. I'm already at 76% of my daily quota for the cloudflare workers, so it won't be around much longer. My budget for this project was the $10 I spent on the domain.
This is what I love about the agentic era the most. It gives us highly functioning alcoholics the ability to drink and work at the same time! -thisisajokeorisit-
I doubt the author would have made something worth posting (much less something that hit #1) if he had attempted to make this by hand while drinking 6 guinness
Maybe I should have sent you a Guinness last night after I saw the website.
Ooh, instead I should vibe code a website and service that will send a Guinness to a hacker who is working on their own vibe coded service, kind of a perfect recursive circle! LLM, please write my book, "Godel, Escher, Guinness, an Eternal Dark River of Achievement".
Immediately after completing this, I heard a knock on my door from the dark forces of Alcohol Beverage Control, they were trying to get in, along with my HR team, my copyright lawyer, and weirdly my ex-wife were all here to tell me this was a bad idea.
As a side note, that particular model is extremely abliterated, although it's almost certainly wrong, it'll attempt to give you an entire setup plan for a meth lab if you ask it. Or something similarly naughty as a test.
This sort of absurdist satire with the right system prompt is a near perfect use case for it since it'll happily cooperate with just about anything. And yet it's big enough to be able to write coherently and provide a reasonable answer.
I think it scores like 0 out of 460 on a test of known "bad" prompts that most LLM will refuse.
>> No attempts to monetize have been made or will be made
> I'm disappointed.
So am I.
A true fan of the movie would have remembered the following quote:
"money? ... [thinks hard for a couple of seconds and then remembers] ... I like money!"
While HTML4 geocities style website have a soft stop in my heart, this page absolutely feels like it was made by an LLM which makes it ironic in a way it was never intended to be I assume.
I genuinely have never seen these stupid bordered bubbles with gradient backgrounds and emojis-for-icons before LLMs, why are they obsessed with them? How did they get into the dataset???
These were chosen manually, by committee. It's as natural as bootstrap.
I love the "dataset" guys. "The reason there are so many em-dashes is because they were trained on the work of great writers, and people frequently used em-dashes before AI. I certainly did!"
1) You didn't.*
2) So explain all of the sections starting with emojis. Did all of the great writers have a section called "The meat of the issue" with an emoji of meat? Why did they go away? Are you starting to suspect that this doesn't work like you think it does?

[*] And some of them just started so they could hide LLM output in their newfound style or explain previous LLM copy-pastes that they were passing off as their own. Others started because they just discovered em-dashes from LLM output and decided they liked them; and still others because they worship the LLM, think that it abstracts the excellent writing styles of the great masters, and they want to be seen as a great master — by imitating the prodded and formatted probability distributions of a machine.
I’ve been using em dashes since I was 17 once I realized that they—when used without spaces—allow you to squeeze a few extra words past the Common App website’s word counter. Not exactly a strategy that works to your advantage these days.
Yeah, somehow whoever (or whatever) decided to build this, decided to use Tailwind for something that absolutely doesn't need a CSS library/framework, it'd be what, ~30 CSS rules to write? :P LLMs truly is the kings of bloat as it stands right now.
Luckily, LLMs have no state so they have no idea if a task is depressing. Unfortunately, they can write future LLMs notes so they know how depressed they should feel. Aside from stopping them from doing this, we have no way to prevent this from happening!
Say what you will about President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho -- at least he cared about the well-being of his country and sought out expert guidance to set things right.
This. The society is still trying to manage its inhabitants by providing what they crave. It is not clear our current trajectory supports that particular landing zone.
A parent doesn't necessarily knows best or acts with your best interests in mind, and that's really observable by all the toxic parents regardless of whether there's malicious intentions behind their actions or just sheer incompetence.
I'm too European for the rest of your argument and I just happen to be Greek so I fundamentally disagree with the premise that I'm voting a father or mother figure which I must blindly follow out of obligation or blind trust.
>A parent doesn't necessarily knows best or acts with your best interests in mind..
A parent who does not have the best interest of their offspring is a fool..Now the "knowing best" part. I have a news for you. No one does, unless they have access to a crystal ball that shows them the future..
> toxic parent
As soon as I see the word "toxic" in a comment, I lose all respect for the comment.
> I'm voting a father or mother figure which I must blindly follow out of obligation or blind trust...
No one is saying you should trust them. What my comment is saying is that you cannot declare how much a person care by looking at external behavior. Even if one put a gun to someone's head and blow their brains out, if you had more context, it might turn out to be in their best interests. (Reference: ending of the movie Mist)...
I'm not entirely sure if I understand your point, but if you're making an analogy between the president and parents, and citizens and children, then I think that is a terrible way to think of an ostensibly democratic system.
If we didn't need hand-holding we'd just vote on policy directly.
The argument is that people aren't equipped to do that, but that's a muscle they've never exercised, because... they aren't equipped to do that, because that's a muscle they've never exercised, etc. It's self-sealing.
Isn’t town hall a thing in the US? I’m not american, but voting on the scale of a nation is generally costly, and some country just keep it for a few important matters. Delegates are way more pragmatic.
Don't know about you, but personally I don't like direct democracy bc i have shit to do besides deciding which law to pass. My states' ballot is full of ridiculous questions every year and takes me days to do my research. I can't imagine doing this year round without getting paid.
> i have shit to do besides deciding which law to pass...
Really shows people take the government for granted. Just remember about the people who gave their lives for freedom and independence. They gave their LIFE. You are only asked to give some of your time to maintain what they bought.
Or am I getting this all wrong and people never gave life for freedom and independence?
People gave their lives so everyone could spend their life studying law?? The people you've got in mind gave their lives for a representative, not a direct democracy.
Laws are difficult and nuanced. Deciding between yes/no takes me a long time, because I am not a lawyer or a legislator. Even for them, again, legislating is a job for a reason... I know I like certain things, and dislike others, I know basically which direction I want things to go; however, deciding whether a concrete bill is a reasonable-enough implementation that has closed loopholes is way out of the scope of decisions I would trust myself, or most citizens, to make well. This, it feels like a waste.
there is a lot of nuance in laws so much so that people spend their entire lives studying and learning how to work with the law. it's unrealistic for every person in a democracy to be able to study understand and vote accordingly on every law proposed. people absolutely should put in more effort towards their civic duty but there are other aspects of society that require significant effort as well.
> If we didn't need hand-holding we'd just vote on policy directly.
That argument doesn't make sense to me. We elect people to work for us. They're not our parents; they're our employees. You have the relationship upside-down.
None of this has anything to do with voting on policies.
Voting on policy directly would be taking up everyones time. It's just not practical for anything bigger than a small village.
The problem with today's system is we have MPs or representatives instead of delegates. They are not bound to their campaign promises in any way other than risking a small fine if someone fights them in court for months to prove they were lying. Once you get elected you can do what you want until the next election unless you really piss off your colleagues and get kicked out.
Voters should be able to call an early election in their district and override their reps/force them to vote a certain way, without having to personally show up and decide every single issue.
Teflon Mark will do anything achieve a goal. If Trump said that he liked underage girls, Mark would show up in a Sailor Moon uniform to keep NATO intact.
That's a pretty wild analogy that the guy who cheated on his first wife to get with his second wife to cheat on his second wife to get with his nude model third wife only to be subsequently accused of multiple serial sexual assaults and found liable for one of them is a good parent.
Girl, don't you wanna be like us? (Like us)
No choice, no decisions, no fuss
Take a dash of fascism, fill your cup
It's great
Slip off that democracy
Let us take ze lead
The less choice you have
The more you feel free
Hands up for the Führer all night
Goose-step to the left
Jump to the far right
It's a Reich, it's a Reich
You must bow to our might
Fünf, vier, drei, zwei, eins
The funniest thing about the design is when I click the 'X' on ads to see if they close, but the button keeps moving. I feel like I’m literally chasing it like a mouse, I was laughing straight out :)). A correct depiction of the modern ad system.
I’m kinda surprised we are not mandated to call it America Intelligence. The initials would still be AI!
I’m personally still bummed basilisk.ai was taken. Looked for it as soon as I heard about that silly thing. Was going to make a Geocities style “shrine to Roko’s Basilisk.”
Would love to know what prompts you used for this. Anytime I've ever tried to make an LLM create funny but satirical jokes it fails terribly and comes across cringey and try-hard. This one genuinely seems funny and absurd.
The close ad button has the class "right-1" and the code that tries to move it changes the left value, the result is that the button instead of moving resizes, defeating the purpose of the unclickable button joke
Amazingly, this doesn’t look like slop to me, unlike the slop articles and images I’m flooded with on the Web these days. The world of Idiocracy actually had some taste, unlike the timeline we’re on today.
I also made a satire webpage but spent a lot of time getting it to look like a modern news website that most people don't even get its satire: https://gossip-glitch.considerthebean.xyz/
