I would have said there is no problem with your style (nothing brash/abrasive), but you used a lot of jargon, that people who are not very deep into LLMs (large language models) would not understand. Interests of hackernews visitors are very diverse, not everyone follows LLMs that closely.
- smeej 3y agoThis was my take exactly. I read the original and thought, "Wow, this sounds like really interesting stuff this poster us excited about. I wish I knew what the terms meant, though. I'll have to come back to this when I have more time and look up the terms." I was pleasantly surprised to find a glossary immediately following, which tells me it wasn't the tone of the post, but the shorthand terminology that was unfamiliar to me that was my issue. I think writing in "Ben's voice" is great. There are just going to be times when your audience needs a bit more context around your terminology, that's all.
