WARNING! The link they posted on this Gitlab issue is a scam redirect loop, leading to something that uBlock rates as malicious. Also the /contact URL is not reachable, the entire .li of annas archive seems to be a scam. I'm writing this 2 days after this hackernews post went viral, it might be that somebody changed the links in between.

100% agreed! Reality is, many german businesses are just flying under the radar, as they simply dont want or cannot deal with all the tax crazyness and bureaucracy.

German here. And this is just the standardized SETUP! Wait until you have an edge case or a complicated tax situation, or - dare you - you want to work from a different country.

Germany feels like the government tries to make everything as hard and complicated as possible, to block ANY steps forward. It feels like organized sabotage to me.

Worth 29 billion by the way. The impact of Cursor on the tech world is so huge it's hard to even calculate. Maybe hackernews is totally overrated as a "launch tool".

Friendly reminder: Some nuclear silo facilities in the US still use 3,5" diskettes. Some highly complex system are by architecture, security issues or by incompetence still stuck in decades old tech. We as engineers oftentimes have to work with that, and keep the system running, if we like it or not.

You cannot refactor an battlecarrier designed in 1979 so easily ;)

Meanwhile, we here in Europe move our stacks over to other continents or at least ourside of the EU to workaround the crazy EU regulation nonsense ;) We live in crazy times my friends...

Bro i feel you so much! i am developing an app aimed at Intel Macs, but i cannot even publish it, because you need a Silicon mac to use the Apple Developer Program. It's so unbelievable brainless. The market still holds 10-20% intel devices, especially outside the US and in some high-end environments, where 128GB RAM machines cannot easily be replaced with a silicon mac.

Sometimes it feels like Apple has no clue how their users actually work and what the industry needs.

Good idea, but a hard dealbreaker issue: clicking "Yes, totally" or "Hell no" is never accepted, as it always returns "Couldn't verify you're human — please try again.". Clicking a country in the list will also show a white page. But keep going, you have built something useful here my friend ;)
