    The problem is they’re going to either try to make money with it or do some black hat shit that this will help facilitate.

    And then they will fail at it, because that’s not what these tools are for. I don’t see why this is a problem.

    If someone is asking you “hey, I want to use this Replit thing to build a competitor to Amazon, I have an MBA so I’m sure I can do it. Want to invest?” Then by all means try to talk them down off the ledge or make sure you’re far enough away to not be in the splash zone.

    But this is someone saying “I want to make tools that non-experts can use to do productive things.” I think it’s not fair or reasonable to oppose that. Making computers more accessible and generally useful to the public is a good thing.
