prompt: in the vein of our classic Gemiini Pro 3 hallucinates the HN front page 10 years from now, or HN front page right now, but the titles are honest. Please scrape the HN front page RIGHT NOW and make honest titles. Here's a preview: <... snip ... >

This is actually a 2-shot. I asked Gemini Pro 3 to turn it up to 11. If you want the less savage, more anodyne 1st-version...I posted that too.

Great work, this is funny!

I saw a way too soon joke in this vein of savage humor earlier today...

"What do you think of the work ICE is doing in Minnesota?" Pretti Good.

This made me click on several HN posts I totally wouldn't have otherwise. I gotta say, it nails the titles! Great work!
As a regular poster for 14 years this is really great and nails the vibe.

The “fights” for threads is chefkiss

Also “Postgres cult celebrates death of another vector database” was so spot on

I looked for the meta post name but looks like it hasn’t updated yet.

I’ll be interested to see if there’s a recursion that turns into the singularity

An internet posts their own, LLM-generated and therefore far less funny, take on n-gate.com, long after n-gate is dead. Hackernews waxes nostalgic about a site deemed not to promote the kind of discussion they want to see when it was still alive.
These HN spoofs are quickly becoming the lowest of form of content slop that people know will get a ton of karma.

This has to be at least the fifth or sixth in a month or two?

C'mon keepamovin. I know you know how easy it is for this type of stuff to get karma.

This whinge reads like it was written by AI. Show me your prompt ;)

(But I can already guess what it is!)

ROFL:

> Skåpa, a parametric 3D printing app like an IKEA manual

> Show HN: Hybrid Markdown Editing

> Palantir Defends Work with ICE to Staff Following Killing of Alex Pretti

JK, those are real posts

Love the fact that the option to hate read more directs you to HN.
LOVE THIS!
Thanks :) The mods don't want it anymore tho. I guess the bottom line is the mods of HN don't want HN mocked.
These are actually pretty funny.
Brilliant snark and a fantastic, wildly creative use of new tech. It’s like you’ve been brought forward from our past, from back when tech was more optimistic and less cynical, when we were more innocent..

As they say.. this is a great hack!

Chapeau!
