HN isn’t that discerning, lots of LLM-written posts seem to zoom up the feed (especially if they have a good headline). I’m not sure if it is a bad things really; often it feels like the posters here ignore the contents of the link, but come up with legitimately interesting discussions kicked off by the headline.

Agree about the mechanics.

It’s a bad thing if you valued the thoughtful, insightful, well-structured technical writing that used to be behind many highly-upvoted hn links.
