Ahhh.. wouldn't that be better by using a percentage of filler words/total words in title threshold?? I don't know if a feature simply strips out the filler words in title, it's not always useful and rather harmful is what I would argue.
- shakna 2y agoHumans work better. HN is small scale enough that a moderator can come along, collapse the off topic comments and fix the title, and it's not an issue.
- DavidMankin 2y agoSeems like title cleanup is a good use for an LLM actually. (Not to remove the human option, but as the first smarter pass instead of simple stopword lists.)
- shakna 2y agoIs it, though? An LLM burns through how much power, compared to the tiny Arc server? You could outsource it, of course... But then you have a third party dependency. Then you have the problem that LLMs continually and constantly change words to be "simpler" and destroy the very sensitive meanings, especially words in tech. Like auto-correcting Fediverse into Universe. Or C into C++.
