News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I find it's a shame the article is absolutely littered with AI-isms, again, like another cool hack project the other day here on HN. It is incredibly jarring to read a line like "No Platform Builder, no SDK install, no CD key.".

Sounds like a cool project but I find it a bit offensive that the article author doesn't value the article reader's time enough to edit the AI-isms out.

On the other hand, trying to point this out usually results in downvotes, so maybe it's useless to complain about this trend?

Years ago, when poor English in spam emails was a signal, I was always puzzled why spammers didn't spend the smallest amount of money to have a fluent speaker write their copy.

It's not. Please don't stop pushing back against this deluge of crap.
