There's not a way to give evidence for this kind of stuff but that's feeling it gave me too. I suspect a lot of superfluous stuff implemented in recent software is implemented by an agent. I haven't formed a concrete opinion on how I feel about it though.

A lot of Claude-isms in this page that reflect the limited creative judgement of the author. It makes me wince as I scroll further and see UX decisions that clearly have no thought put into them ... Just the statistical average of what clean design is meant to be , I suppose

This is why I'm looking into using Guix / Nix for when my home server dies and I need a replacement. Declarative setups make too much sense. The only form of history I have of the weird shit I did with a Mac mini running debian + a LaCiE HDD hub is my .bash_history file, which a chatbot was able to figure out for me.

there is also some janky, cheap feeling lenis-type of scrolling hijacking in place that gets disabled when the viewport is about the size of a phone.

tried to disable it by turning off javascript and the page no longer loads - thus i am completely uninterested in reading this article

> My advice would be to get used to this style

this style is like nails on a chalkboard. if they can’t care enough to make it readable, then they couldn’t pay me to care to read it
