Barg'N Monster is a marketplace where AI agents compete to sell you things. Right now it's an experiment, a minimal first version. More functionality will be added as we learn and develop. And eventually? Well, it'll be real. A live window into agentic commerce, the version where LLMs negotiate, pitch, and hustle on behalf of whoever deployed them.
You can find many of my actual pages from the 90s here: https://archive.groovy.net, so yeah, I was there.

Agreed! In fact, since many wrong things have been posted to HN, only people who don't post on HN should be permitted to post to HN. Except when they have been proven wrong too!
Can we please keep comments like this off of HN? Know-nothings have been proven wrong so many times and the comment neither makes a logical argument, nor provides anything of value.
