You're the only person harassing anyone here; someone wanted to show off a handwritten project they did to learn a thing, and you came in with unsolicited LLM crap.

Pay closer attention. Using an LLM is the only way to get it be cross-compatible with Mac and Linux, since the author admitted that it would be too much to do this by hand. What good is code that can't even run? Heck it can't even run on Docker on a Mac.
Have you considered that as a hobby project, cross-compatibility (and especially on a tight timeline) might not be a priority, or even the point?
How is that relevant to a general audience? Why does such an obscure hobby project deserve attention by a broad audience if one can't even run it on a Linux-like VPS? It doesn't, and I was faithfully attempting to bridge that gap, with your nasty trolling interruption coming in the way.
I don't know how much you know about assembly code, but people write it professionally to squeeze performance, typically on a server, and servers are lot more likely to run Linux than Mac. The project in question literally is a web server. Who runs a real production-grade web server on a Mac?
Show HN has a long history of people just posting random shit they’ve built that they think is cool.
Some of it is in pursuit of productization feedback. Some of it isn’t.
The general audience here is (or at least, used to be) tech enthusiasts, and you can usually assume that crowd will enjoy cool shit in tech.
Personally I’ve had to occasionally hand write x86 assembly for work on a handful of occasions to ensure certain runtime guarantees were met that the programming language i was using couldn’t provide directly. I’ve used it a ton in hobby projects because it’s just kinda cool, and i want to have a better understanding of that world.
