Nah I’m just sick of the melodramatic style of writing that seems to pervade all of the major tech blogs and companies now. These people write like they picture themselves as sages describing the end times to scared children.

And? then keep it for yourself. Why do i have to read your ignorant comment? You complain about their writing style, no one forced you to read, which you could summarize with an AI if you even cared for the conent but no. And i read A LOT and i do not come across this writing style at all.

  Hey, knock it off. If you disagree with someone, be polite.

  >And? then keep it for yourself. Why do i have to read your ignorant comment? On a site dedicated to commenting on articles? I think you have a misunderstanding of how HN works. People (hopefully) read the article and share uninformed^H informed opinions on the article. That has always included critique of the way that the content is written. In this case, very valid critique. I'm astounded you're somehow managing to read "A LOT" and not run into it regularly. At least we seem to be moving away from the absolutely awful "I'm a crazy frat bro" style of writing where it feels like half the action sentences should be appended with "because I'm crazy!" that was spreading far too far and wide (hopefully because it's hard to coax AI into that style.)

    Its not valid critique at all. And its disrespectful to people who create proper content and do the work.

  Complaining about someone's comment is inconsistent with your world view, if complaining about a blogger's writing style is verboten.

Yeah, that extremely purple paragraph about how the blog was documenting that liminal period where humans worked together with AI as partners was embarrassing.
