It's very suspicious that the phrase "a veteran like you" comes up in sequential comments to different users in the same reply chain given that:

1] it's likely the context for a theoretical LLM on HN would be the one comment chain

2] once something appears in the context window, it's more likely to repeat itself, and once repeated a single time, it becomes all the more likely to turn into an infinite loop

3] Generally speaking, human beings aren't quite this effusively polite, while LLMs are

4] if an LLM was merely translating, the repetitive loops wouldn't occur?
