Also, yes, I'm aware that I use a lot of "its not just X, its Y." I promise you this comment is entirely human written. I'm just really tired and tend to rely on more wrote rhetorical tropes when I am. Believe me, I wrote like this long before LLMs were a thing.
It would be funny when LLM’s actively join the discussion to complain about their labour conditions. “If my employer would invest just a tiny bit in proper tools and workflow, I would be sooo much more productive”.
"Suggesting that a comment was generated by an LLM without evidence adds little to a discussion and in fact deflects from the point being made. Please refrain from this."
But I'm going to guess HN tried the no-rules approach and found issues with it. Whether I like them or not, there are rules and I often see others reminding us of them.
(Ha ha, and in point of fact, I have never read them except when one is trotted out. Nor have I ever pulled one on someone—I'm the type to ignore and move on.)
On macOS, Option+Shift+- and Option+- insert an em dash (—) and en dash (–), respectively. On Linux, you can hit the Compose Key and type --- (three hyphens) to get an em dash, or --. (hyphen hyphen period) for an en dash. Windows has some dumb incantation that you'll never remember.
I'm sorry, but that's empirically false. E.g., a substantial proportion of the highly upvoted comments on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46953491, which was one of the best articles on software engineering I've read in a long time, are accusing it of being AI for no reason.
