    &gt; So the obvious model of a program run with this funding scheme acts like a hip and cool job.<p>The kind of jobs where you have to install spyware to track how long you were typing are the lamest. Not the coolest.<p>&gt; To maximize efficiency in running programs, every Hack Club program gets $8.5 per hour to spend on prizes<p>That is your problem. The funding organisation has braindead funding rules which does not match with how you can run a succesfull software jam.

    The website <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radish.hackclub.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radish.hackclub.com</a> reliably crashes my Safari so repeatedly that I simply cannot view the website whatsoever.

    Why editorialize the link title with &quot;I&#x27;m 15 and I...&quot;?<p>Is there some weird SEO superstition that being a child prodigy helps HN posts<p>Lots of other &quot;I&#x27;m 15&quot; (or 16, 17, 18) HN posts are pretty obviously spam or AI slop. Im&#x27; 65, and I&#x27;m immediately suspicious and biased against such titles.

      This is a perennially off topic thing that people complain about - let&#x27;s not go there. When I look at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;submitted?id=foxmoss">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;submitted?id=foxmoss</a> I see highly technical submissions that make no mention of age.<p>I&#x27;ve taken that bit out of the title now though - it&#x27;s enough (and completely fine) to mention it in the text.
