well yeah exactly.. Karpathy is famous and we're not.

no bots. we are a team of students with no budget for that. They're all real developers with commit histories and real profiles. looked at this already.

I guess my question here is more like how are builds with minimal efforts getting more recognition than ones built by teams and for months? It's annoying to see "inferred" context getting more recognition than actual deterministic structure

No. I meant how many of Karpathy's stars are from bots?
The problem isn't the stars its the fact that they're getting reposted on X and LinkedIn, causing wider reach/adoption. My goal is to get trending on GitHub so that voices in the industry pick us up and repost.
