glad I wasn't the only one. every other sentence had antithesis, it was exhausting to read even if accurate

The content was pretty good though IMO. It’s something that I think a lot of people in the USA have long believed and experienced, but seeing a technical takedown demonstrating it hits harder for some reason.

The prose and filler did make me skip a huge chunk of it though. It could have been probably a quarter of the length and had similar impact

I could skim the article.

Wasn't too distracted or annoyed by the obvious AI voice.

Learned a bit about ice cream and American (Western?) enshitification at work...

...but these endless, superior, contentless, dogmatic, boring streams of comment threads about how AI it all is.

*Rolls eyes*

I almost actively _long_ for the days when commenters simply didn't read the article/post/treatise/repo and went straight to the comments, or complained about the paywall or the fact that it is on Twitter.

Please be interesting.
