Why?

I assume because “land” is a word Claude would choose.

  • Claude's wording (and knowledge) is based on what competent senior engineers would say.

    • I really hope I don't have to work with these "competent senior engineers" anytime soon — my codebase couldn't handle it.

      On the plus side I would spend all day hearing I am "absolutely right" from a superior being.

  • It's the only good word here. "Drop" can also mean the opposite and anything else sounds too formal. Don't get me started on "release will release".

    • Well, they could have written something like "The 2.0 release itself will be in the next few weeks" or "It will be a few weeks before the actual 2.0 release".

      (But I agree that "land" is fine here, and the rest of TFA doesn't strike me as obviously AI-written. And I'm not a fan of the "look, they did one thing that AIs often do! Must be AI and therefore bad!" thing in any case.)

    • "Polars 2.0 will be released (publicly) in the following weeks" sounds far more natural.
