Just what I thought. > made with <3 by Ayden That's the cherry on the cake - indicating genuine effort and attention to detail put into something, yet not even checking the credit at the bottom.

Actually a pretty funny joke if intentional.

I am the dev, it was in fact intentional

This is a filter for articles about AI, not articles written by AI. I'd actually use the latter. As for the "no AI here" badge, people will soon just put it up themselves. Like llms.txt: you add it, and nobody checks.

Submissions of articles written by AI should be flagged on the upstream HN, as should be comments written by AI.

Ngl it would be kinda fun for everyone to meme with each other on slop mode in slop threads

Without AI, using AI to accomplish it's goal. And built using AI. My friends we are in the future.

So what. The unabomber used a phone sometimes

unslop.news IS slop btw: https://github.com/leiDnedyA/hn-without-ai

Huh... it's not even that hard of a problem to solve right? Maybe I'm insane, but I feel like this is easier to crank out in rails or something than sloppin' it. It's a singular page, with some filtering on one model + a job to add entries on a regular basis with an API call out to openanthrogemingptai. We do get the the pinnicle of software quality though: parsing HTML with regex. https://github.com/leiDnedyA/hn-wit…

lol it works though doesn't it?

Oh I'm just saying this would be faster to make with a framework and... traditional coding or whatever I'm told to call my job now.

If you're talking about parsing HTML with regex... buddy that IS the pinnacle of software quality. I'm sure... nay convinced, that HTML is fully parseable with regular expressions. We were just waiting for one very special boy to ask Claude for it, and today, the world hath received the fruits from a tree we planted long ago... thank you.
