I wouldn't ask an LLM to output this directly. For an ellipse ascii I would guess that having it write a python program to generate it and then run it would work much better. Using claude sonnet 4.6 on a free account it seemed to work (sorry in advance if the hacker news formatting is horrendous) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⠤⠔⠒⠒⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠙⠒⠒⠢⠤⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢀⡠⠖⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠲⢄⡀⠀ ⣰⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣆ ⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸ ⠹⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⠏ ⠀⠈⠑⠦⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⠴⠊⠁⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⠒⠢⠤⠤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣠⠤⠤⠔⠒⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ | ||

You can use two spaces at the beginning of each line to trigger the "code" mode. I tried to reconstruct your drawing, but perhaps I didn't guess correctly:
Edit: I had to delete the two first spaces or each line and replace them with newly typed spaces from my keyboard. Perhaps there is some white-space-unicode-magic-character that is confusing HN. | ||
