I asked Claude to fix the grammar of my comment, and it changed "I am using 3.7 for" to "I've been using Claude 3.7", so they sneaked their own name on it.

incredible. further evidence supporting my personal stance to never ever let an LLM write or edit my writing intended for another human being to read. this is all me, baby
you didn’t even read your comment before you posted it?
Once you've written something, it's incredibly easy to overlook minute changes to the text.
See: why authors wait days, weeks, or even months before editing what they've written (or, if you're more interested: cognitive regression, inattentional blindness, and the effects of misdirected saccades).

1. That's a wild conclusion from his comment! Understand that it's not an "either/or".
2. I'd wager the majority of HN commenters don't read their own comment before posting (pre-LLM days).
I can read my own comment twice over and still somehow miss seemingly obvious wording errors.

Eh that one is on me, if I think too much about my HN comment I end up deleting before posting it. I rely on the 1 min `delay` set in the profile page to fix before it goes live, but for some reason this time it was set to 0.
A two paragraph hacker comment? You burned carbon for that?
