Do you think the original comment posted by quapster was "slop" equivalent to a copy-paste spam bot? The only spam I see in this chain is the flagged post by electric_muse. It's actually kind of ironic you bring up copy-paste spam bots. Because people fucking love to copy-paste "ai slop" on every comment and article that uses any punctuation rarer than a period.

> Do you think the original comment posted by quapster was "slop" equivalent to a copy-paste spam bot? Yes: the original comment is unequivocally slop that genuinely gives me a headache to read. It's not just "using any punctuation rarer than a period": it's the overuse and misuse of punctuation that serves as a tell. Humans don't needlessly use a colon in every single sentence they write: abusing punctuation like this is actually really fucking irritating. Of course, it goes beyond the punctuation: there is zero substance to the actual output, either. > What's wild is that nothing here is exotic: subdomain enumeration, unauthenticated API, over-privileged token, minified JS leaking internals. > Least privilege, token scoping, and proper isolation are friction in the sales process, so they get bolted on later, if at all. This stupid pattern of LLMs listing off jargon like they're buzzwords does not add to the conversation. Perhaps the usage of jargon lulls people into a false sense of believing that what is being said is deeply meaningful and intelligent. It is not. It is rot for your brain.

  "it's not just x, it's y" is an ai pattern and you just said: >"It's not just "using any punctuation rarer than a period": it's the overuse and misuse of punctuation that serves as a tell." So, I'm actually pretty sure you're just copy-pasting my comments into chatgpt to generate troll-slop replies, and I'd rather not converse with obvious ai slop.

    Congratulations, you successfully picked up on a pattern when I was intentionally mimicking the tone of the original spambot content to point out how annoying it was. Why are you incapable of doing this with the original spambot comment?

      I'm not replying to your slop (well, you know, after this one). Anyways, if you think something is ai, just flag it instead so I don't need to read the word "slop" for the 114th fucking time today. Thankfully, this time, it was flagged. But I got sucked in to this absolutely meaningless argument because I lack self control.

        Ironically, you were the first person in this thread to use the word "slop". You have become what you hate.
