YHK - yet another hacker news clone

Does it come with a vim plugin?

It's that time for the complaints about page scroll UX

What happens when the parasites evolve a resistance to green lasers, as they tend to do

I wish more things had bolts on them, it screams “take me apart and fix me!”

On the flip side the last thing I’d want to open up is an autonomous laser gun. I wonder what the safety-catch looks like on this thing? A big metal shutter?

worst website ui.. ever.

A video of this in action is going around on social media recently. Here's a short clip from year ago that's much better than the company website: https://youtube.com/shorts/6sGkVQUvW20

Isn't water really bad environment for light transmission?

I was hoping for a shark wth fricken laser beams...

What a strange idea for a website. An extreme closeup of a machine that vaguely rotates a bit as you scroll down for seemingly miles trying to find a single word explaining what you’re looking at.

Then when you finally get past it, the first text on the page says “our software is constantly being improved…”, as though we already knew what this thing was and what it did.

Nothing else further down gives us any more clues.

Maybe on a Mac desktop or whatever the designers used, there is text happening during all that scrolling?

Finally we will get some revenge for Steve Irwin!

Fascinating. Very cool technology. I was curious if it worked and it's funny, there's a study that says it doesn't work[0] but it seems that farmers keep wanting more[1]. Amusing.

Great product, but the most horrific web page I have seen in 2026.

What an utter shitshow of a website.

Please for the love of god put a brief intro on what it is on landing pages. Not close up shots and hijacked scroll and text about stereoscopic cams.

Stereoscopic cams ON WHAT. What is it...

I would realy like to see one of these in action, as anything that kills parasites non chemicaly is going to be the only viable way to controll them going forward, which is why the worlds most horrible web site works, because if you flick hard it gets you to an actual phone number and physical address, which is what a farmer will use, with the words I put at the top, here, comming out of there mouth, and presumably the demo involves real time video of frying lice, which for anyone involved in any agriculture, will be a beutifull sight. If this company is any good, there main quest will be data aquisition and working constantly on the next iteration, and marketing will be very traditional, based on word of mouth concerning proffits and quality. The unwritten promise is that by reducing the parisite load, other infections will drop dramaticly, use of chemicals and antibiotics can be reduced or eliminated ,quality goes up, and concerns about the environment and animal welfare go down. This, is , BIG.

Overcrowded salmon farms gets the fish lice infestation, no problem, just put a computer vision guided laser blaster in there. Surely there is nothing wrong with the whole situation.

The irony, of course, is that the Norwegian farmed salmon is generally the stuff that's safe to eat raw, and the wild catch has to be selected and handled carefully because of parasites.

The lasers work! :)

(I have no idea if the lasers work. I see fish lasers, I post fish lasers.)
