    Plot twist, it was artisanally typed in emacs.

    This is great satire. If you read it as a parody it's uncomfortable, if you read it straight it's uncomfortable but in a different way.

    > Accessibility doesn't matter when the content is engineered to be inaccessible to thought.

    Act sarcastic all you want, that's a killer line. You do care.

      The headline on that section, "Static sites are for people who can still read", caught me off guard.
      • altmanaltman 46 minutes ago
        Because it's also bullshit. "People who read" prefer static sites and not prefer any kind of interactivity is just fetishizing intelligence. Readers don't give a fuck if your site is coded in react or static, most of them dont even know web technology statistically. Projection at its peak

        Out of curiosity, which AI persona should I attribute this writing to? Is this Claude?
        • elmerland 1 hour ago
          Ya, it’s Claude

            It’s so strange that the Claude-ness leaks out even when it’s prompted to use this tone. The underlying flavour shines through clearly. I’m sure you could get it to shake it with enough prompting

            > get hired at a comp number that requires a comma you've never used before

            Gotta hand it to Claude, that's almost a pretty decent line.

              I’m pouring out a shot of Tres Comas for Claude right now

    I'm fatigued by this hyperbole and profanity, especially when written by an LLM. There is too much of this. Human-written or not it makes it very difficult for me to engage with. The sentiment is bad. Is building this better than building nothing?

    Just because this is how things are does not it's how they should be. I'm very tired.

      This site is for the lolz and obviously following the style set by the previous mf websites. I find it cathartic to laugh at the ridiculousness of the situation we are in, but also genuinely engage with the neck breaking pace of change we are all having to adjust to.

      And the LLM came up with some really funny lines

        people were (rightfully) complaining about this kind of humor in 2019

          People complain about all things all the time (rightfully) but I'm not gonna complain about your complaints now, I will only add that I sometimes enjoy humor full of "shock" and profanity. Still! , After decades of professionals and non-professionals diluting it. This site was funny. Ymmv

    One starts wondering, is farming one of my strengths, is it something else.

    As many says if AI does the creative part then I do the dishes, as opposite why we built computers for. Looks like we will be serving AI.

    First they sell you the sickness and then they tell you the cure is too dangerous to release to the general public. Because their sickness will not sell.

      Are you talking about Claude Mythos? /s

    Very good. A viable if any longwinded ode to the original. Which in itself is very fitting.

    > Websites are broken by default. They used to be functional, fast, and accessible but ugly. Now they're slop, agentic, and on fire — but they get attention, and attention is the only metric left. Nobody's reading and you know it.

    I’m upset if an LLM actually wrote this because this is p sick

      It's AI. Telling a model to shitpost really isn't very interesting since that's pretty much half of everything on the internets and there was practically infinite training material.
    • helloplanets 14 minutes ago
      It reads a lot like an LLM... Especially this sentence:

      > Now they're slop, agentic, and on fire — but they get attention, and attention is the only metric left.

      Welcome to the future, where we have LLMs writing slop rants about LLMs writing slop!

  • indianmouse 1 hour ago
    Exactly! Though it is sarcastic, it is the way in which everything is moving. No end to it and it'll get worse by day.

    But the site has brilliantly captured the thoughts and the little nuances behind agentic coding. It is sure good for all the LLM providers, but on a slightly serious note, it just burns cash which could have been avoided all together.

    All said, it's just too good and satirically correct with the prevailing attitude!

    Nothing to complain or comment on about the thought process or content. Just don't get into an opinion forming on what is written, but just take a step back and retrospect, it is all on the wall!

    Nice work IMHO!

    Why is this so good?

    Probably because someone still cared a lot about the bit! And wow this is really quite good lol.

    I’m getting some serious Frank Grimes vibes here [1]. I think the slop is causing people to lose their minds because the cognitive dissonance they have seeing it proliferate while hating it so much.

    Now Im suspecting if it's possible that VCs are part of the money loop, thus they are more than happy to fund as long as you pour enough of the funding back into the "AI ecosystem".
