Are people supposed to be obligated to post such a report nowadays?
I enjoyed the article and found it really interesting, but seeing these types of comments always kind of puts a damper on it afterwards.

No, typically when I ask questions it's optional.

That is why I waited half a day, and until after there were lots of comments praising the article. Still, I'm sorry if it put a damper on it for you.
Also the whole reason I asked about the source is because I think the article has a lot of merit and so I am curious if it's because the author put a lot of work in (LLM-assisted or not.) Usually when I get that feeling it's followed by a realization I'm wasting my time on something the author didn't even read closely.
But I didn't get that this time, and I'd love more examples of LLMs being used (with effort, presumably) to produce something the author could take pride in.

Actually, I take it back. I did think I was wasting my time when I noticed it was written by an LLM. But then I came back to HN an saw only praise and decided to wait a bit to see if people kept finding it useful before commenting.
I was somewhat excited by the prospect of this article being useful, but I've started to come around to my initial impression after another day. I don't really trust it.
