There's no science behind it. You're reading ai generated text.

My guess is the prompt was something like this:

"describe a color palette generating tool that uses the magic of polar coordinates to make pretty color palettes"

It's not AI generated; it's a joke by the creator, as explained here a couple of years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34665584

It is AI-generated. I'm sure the author provided the prompt and liked the result, but it is the output of an LLM.

Evidence for this claim that you're making with absolute certainty?

Excellent, this is what I was looking for, thank you.

This is HN, if the writing is not complete deadpan with a complete lack of whimsy, followed by a list of citations, it's AI generated.

[throw10920]

Ok, so you are both lying about multiple things (the fact that it's AI generated and the way that people interact on HN) and blatantly breaking the HN guidelines. Got it.

That read like sarcasm to me tbh, your parent post.

Ah, thanks for the cite!
