That's right! Your agents can now provision servers, spend money, and do everything for you!

You don't even need to hand them a credit card!

What's that? Why's that?

Because they've teamed up with Stripe! Why yes, if you've signed up with Stripe Atlas (don't "shrug" this Atlas off, friends!), which is Stripe's "launch a startup for you" company-to-make-companies, they'll give you $100k of FREE credits!!!

That first hit! It's free! Hey!

I bet all the future hits will be too, right? And uh, who will be left holding that bill after you've established this nice dependency?

Vibe coding? That's nothing! Time to go all in on Vibe Founding!

In reality, you don't need much to do it.

Humans can be in the loop to grant permission and must accept Cloudflare's terms of service, but no human steps are otherwise required from start to finish.
Humans are still required to sign this contract but there's now no need for them to read it.

Incredible business model concept. The software tool that buys our product for you. Saving you the hard work of deciding if you want to buy our product. 10/10 no note.

I think they want the poor dead

That doesn't make sense tho'f they wanna be rich. "Rich" is relative; it can only exist when there's poor people also.

Poverty'd be solved by taxing the rich (n redistributing their wealth to the poor).

I find it so fascinating that they even entertain the idea, as if their wealth isn't a product of the poors. It feels like a rancher saying, "well how are we going to get rid of all these cows?"
