From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

Cloudflare is a steal at $240 IMO. Regardless of what happens to the AI models, you will still need protection a decade from now. Not to mention the most comprehensive platform to use with AI, they will inevitably eat Lovable / Repl's lunch.

Election euphoria and hangovers, Sobriety the following day, $8,000 for a video card, Empty boxes on Christmas day. Can't even rhyme without AI anymore.

Democrats are not going to try and stop AI or rein in AI. There is too much money at stake. They'll pass some regulations, sure, some data center rollouts might be blocked or modified, but they aren't going to stop the train.
