I don't know if the tide has shifted on this site, but I was scolded by dang some months ago for pointing out something was obviously GPT-written. I guess that's against the rules.
- alpaca128 1y agoThere's a rule against commenting about "tangential annoyances" like text formatting or bad UX on a linked website. It's possible a comment about GPT use might have been interpreted as that, but I would disagree - this has an effect on the quality of the content. Either way this rule is not very consistently enforced as far as I observed.
- dang 1y agoThere's also the rule against generic tangents, which this subthread certainly is. The trouble with those is that they tend to get upvoted to the top of a thread (as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45089350 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45089350 was), where they choke out the rest of the discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- dang 1y agoOut of curiosity, where was that? The only moderation reply I can find to you is https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43797043 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43797043.
