It doesn&amp;#x27;t really do much. Just shows your HN bio rendered as markdown plus meta stuff. I&amp;#x27;m thinking of adding an aggregated user listing on the homepage so people can explore profiles. There&amp;#x27;s a bunch of interesting people on HN but discoverability is a bit longwinded. I&amp;#x27;m wondering what other features people want. Otherwise shall likely leave it as-is. I remember hnbadges was a thing for a while, but can&amp;#x27;t remember what happened to it. Did people like that?

These models will also learn they don&amp;#x27;t even have a moat to differentiate themselves from other offerings and should keep their development jobs. :)</text></comment>
