Yeah. I get that many HN comments are just complaints (heck mine was too and just as negative and shaming). But how bad of a day must you be having to try to shame someone about how they choose to write up an experience they thought was neat. Whatever, free speech and all that. Hope OC's day gets better.
Only because so many of the articles posted on HN now are AI-written, and badly, too. A lot of tech people are so impressed with LLMs’ capabilities in code that they fail to recognize how bad they are at writing enjoyable prose. And it feels like a chore to write out a whole blog post by hand when the machine could do it for you! But the result we get is so, so much worse and more annoying.
While I don’t disagree with their sentiment, I’m far more annoyed with it than the AI writing.

Every single HN post has the same comment now.
