So many comments about the AI generation part. Why does it matter? If it’s good and accurate and helpful why do you care? That’s like saying you used a calculator to calculate your equations so I can’t trust you.

I am just impressed by the quality and details and approach of it all.

Nicely done (PS: I know nothing about systems programming and I have been writing code for 25 years)

Agree. What matters is quality, regardless of what/who made it.

O.t.o.h., it is funny to see tech people here, that work on implementing technology, taking an approach so... Luddite and "anti-tech".

I agree man. I love the HN community but it seems a lot more cynical than usual :).

i think 90% of the comments were about the AI part rather than the actual product - which seems very cool and definitely took a lot of effort to put together.
