I highly doubt that. What tells do you see that lends to probability of it being llm generated content?

Is it possible that we (myself included) have become conditioned to think content is llm generated as the default opinion?

The article is definitely write or at least rewritten or heavily editorialised by an LLM. You can confirm this by skimming the author’s previous articles and compare it to this one, specially pre-2021.

Come on, the LLM language is all over the article:

> The workflow I had in mind was deliberately cautious

> The code was not the difficult part.

> These requirements are not a one-time form to complete and forget. They create an ongoing responsibility around the account, the documented process, community feedback, failures, and potential reversions.

Just a few examples. And yes, Pangram 4 also flags it as 100% LLM written. I don't mind being downvoted or flagged, but I think more people should be aware of the LLM style, even if they're ok with it being used without any disclaimer. It's honestly sad that nowadays people on HN cannot recognize this style.

What about your examples has an llm tell?

I don't trust pangram 4 much. There was a post here earlier confirming it fails for many others.

Perhaps you haven't used LLMs enough, this style is extremely common with Claude. And can you link me a Pangram 4 example where it has lots of false positives? The main reason why Pangram is supposed to be reliable in the first place is that they trade false positives for false negatives.

The way the text flows, the section headings that have zero creativity...

Has there ever been something like the Jones act, that has worked? In any western democracy? Honest question. I wonder if the nature of international commerce and large nation domestic policy is too complex and chaotic.

The US Army keeps the M1 Abrams line spun up despite a lack of losses to ensure that when losses do happen, it can be replaced.

So far the only effective method has been to purchase a fixed amount of the final desired product regardless of actual demand.

Smoot-Hawley and the Buy American Act, which protected/enabled the Arsenal of Democracy to win the Second World War. Europe's Common Agricultural Policy. Voluntary Export Restraints. Steel and aluminum tariffs. Tech/IP restrictions from the U.S./EU on communist Chinese firms.

Smoot-Hawley was passed while America was a net exporter of industrial products and hurt American manufacturers. I don't see any way to skew it as having helped win WW2.

It decoupled us from foreign markets.

Honestly dunno if anyone does anything similar to the Jones Act. Certainly not in shipping (though a lot of countries require domestic flagging, not built).

Outside of shipping idk what the analogous situation would be

Spanner really can. It has its own quirks, but I've enjoyed working with it.

The hype may have gone down, but it's usage is good. It's used where I work. It has a slack channel that's pretty busy.

dbt isn't going anywhere. It's the standard.

That said, SQLMesh and other tools are pretty interesting and I look forward to new growth in the space.
