No LLM entirely organic. (If you are talking about referring to the author as "they," that is impact to my head from working at woke workplaces.)

I can't really put my finger what (falsely!) tipped me off here. I think the short, single clause, internal-monologue-ish sentences is what did it? > I am reading the post again. It does appear the author is not fully aware what DFU is supposed to do. That especially came off like an LLM being called out on being wrong about something?

Ah yes the woke practice of the singular they, when gender doesn't matter or is ambiguous. Which a hundo-percent never existed before scary mean woke-ism.

        > Also yes, it is 100% corporate woke-ism... In your experience, sure. Some of us have done it that way since Usenet in the early 1980s w/out ever having worked in corporations, attended HR meetings, and well before woke entered the recent zeitgeist lexicon. Using they is indeed a grammatical usage stretching back centuries in the english language. Oxford Eng. Dict. cites it used in that manner going back to circa 1200. (well, as ' https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C3%BEe%C8%9D%C8%9D https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C3%BEe%C8%9D%C8%9D ' in Middle English)

        Sure, it is a personal experience, but no, you cannot gaslight me out of my personal experience by citing your superior knowledge of Middle English. The existence of such construct is not germane here. Forcing people to use the language a certain way is. Anyone who has faced this knows exactly what I am talking about and they can judge for themselves. Since this subthread was adding precisely zero value, I am going to stop right here.

        I would not deny you your experience, I merely remind you that you do not speak for all and the experience of others. Perhaps take your complaint to the root offending comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46853452 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46853452 that started all this by projecting their personal gripes outwards and onto all.

        It's SO FUNNY HOW YOU JUST USED IT. Oh my god, I knew you would eventually, but in an actual reply in this thread. Truly amazing. Anyone... They... But yeah, I'm the weird one for using "they" the same you did rather than go look up the post authors gender. Jesus fucking Christ. Props for keeping the makeup on.
