And... they're gone. While I'm glad it must have gotten someone's attention, hopefully the moderators and not the spammers themselves (does HN allow one to delete 2 day old comments?), now there's no reference point.
I pray LLM output detection can get back on track so that this doesn't keep getting worse. It's certainly doable; we humans already spotted a few ones and distilled them into a fuzzy pattern, so a good classifier might have a chance. False positives are a risk, but depending on the spam volume, may be well worth it.
