As someone who does not know what k4, qSQL, or q are, reading through the landing page of this website was giving me mild schizophrenia. And then I tried to search for these things in the old way, and received incredibly dry technical sites that still don’t tell me what it is, and all these names are wildly SEO unfriendly. So I had Claude give me context and it’s apparently the database Wall Street uses for tick data. Sounds cool but, jeez.

Flagged, lots of unexplained grandiose thinking like “k and q made the vector the unit of thought.” K and q are unexplained and unlinked and “unit vector of thought” is pseudoscientific language

Extremely likely to be AI, though I’m not sure that matters for rules re: submissions

I mean, this is perhaps the most vibecoded website possible so... deff AI.

It attracts negative energy via unanswerable questions and downvotes if you assert it is, alas.

> lots of unexplained grandiose thinking like “ k and q made the vector the unit of thought.”

That much makes sense in context: K is an array language, like APL, J, etc. From what little experience I have with J, ‘vector as a unit of thought’ seems like a reasonable description.

> Extremely likely to be AI

I had the same thought though.
