I have not seen many of these hypothetical "intrinsically interesting" Show HN posts generated by unskilled users.

The single one I can think of is someone who (I quote) "accidentally created the fastest CSV parser ever using SIMD". This person had no interest in researching prior art themselves, and thus incorrectly claimed credit for "coming up" with this approach - and they didn't even do that.

It's not only the prose that's the problem if submitters are determined not to think.
