Yet behind the polished marketing campaigns of some major global suppliers, there lies a darker and more troubling reality.A small British innovation company recently found itself in an impossible position.They had entered into what appeared to be a promising deal with the UK subsidiary of a large US-based enterprise technology manufacturer — a household name. The agreement involved financing the acquisition of a specialised high-performance server, sold as new, state-of-the-art, and mission-ready.What they received was a system that, within days of installation, failed to operate as advertised. Investigations revealed indications that the equipment had been previously used, and internal communications suggested that even the supplier’s own staff were aware of problems.But here’s the true outrage: the financing contract — designed by the supplier

Show HN: LLM-God – An LLM Multiprompting Apphttps://github.com/czhou578/llm-god/tree/1.0.3I’ve been building and maintaining LLM-God, a desktop LLM prompting app for Windows, built with Electron. It allows you to ask one question to multiple LLM web interfaces at once and see all the returned answers in one place. As a very big user of AI tools in my daily life, I hated having to click through multiple tabs in my browser, and slowly copy paste a single query into multiple LLM web interfaces. This inspired me to find a better way, which resulted in this app. I tried to make it as minimalistic as possible while still being functional.Key features:• Starts with a default of Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini, with the option to add more LLM's like Grok, Claude, and DeepSeek.• Responsive, keyboard-friendly interface.Link to the video demo is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10ECa__WWmJEAWAfwrCGPYDnEzvM...Feedback is welcome here, on GitHub: https://github.com/czhou578/llm-god/tree/1.0.3
