Input:

(I copied and pasted text from "An Update on Heroku" https://www.heroku.com/blog/an-update-on-heroku/)

Output:

The Heroku Graveyard

Last Updated: February 06, 2026

Today, we’re officially putting Heroku on life support. We’re done building anything new and we’re just going to keep the lights on so it doesn't crash or get hacked. We’re calling it "operational excellence" because that sounds better than "we've given up on this product." I know this sucks, so let me try to spin it for you.

If you’re already paying us with a credit card, don't worry—we’ll keep taking your money. Everything will stay exactly the same because we aren't touching a single line of code anymore. You can keep running your business on this ghost ship if you want.

If you’re a big company, forget it. We aren't signing any new enterprise deals. If you already have one, we’ll take your renewals until you finally get fed up and migrate somewhere else.

Why we’re doing this We’re gutting the budget for this and moving all the engineers to the AI hype train because that’s where the easy money is right now.

If you take the English, run it to LinkedIn, and then swap the sides, it translates back to English. It is very funny to keep doing over and over, it gets progressively more absurd.

ENG: Amazing -> LI: Game-changing -> ENG: It's the same thing we've always done, just with a different name. -> LI: We’re sunsetting our legacy frameworks to double down on a rebranded, high-impact strategic pivot—same core DNA, but optimized for next-level market alignment. #Innovation #Branding #StrategicGrowth -> ENG: We're killing off our old, broken tech to try a desperate rebrand because the original plan failed. It's the same crap as before, but we're hoping a new name makes people actually want to buy it. -> LI: We are sunsetting our legacy infrastructure to pivot towards a bold, strategic rebranding initiative. By evolving our core identity, we are aligning our vision with current market demands to better serve our community and drive meaningful engagement with our innovative solutions.

It is a terrifyingly broken telephone

Input: the Gettysburg Address. Output: 87 years ago, our founders launched a disruptive startup on this continent—a new nation built on the core values of liberty and the mission-driven proposition that "all men are created equal." Right now, we’re facing a major pivot point in a great civil war, testing whether this organization, or any venture with such a strong culture and vision, can truly scale and endure. We’re…

This literally reads like Erlich from Silicon Valley.

Output

Excited to share some major geopolitical disruption! Trump is officially scaling operations in Cuba. This is a masterclass in strategic expansion and high-stakes negotiation. Whether you agree with the approach or not, there is so much we can learn about market entry and bold leadership in 2024. #Leadership #GlobalBusiness #StrategicGrowth #Disruption #MarketExpansion

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Everybody else looks for em dashes. For me that is the number 1 tell of AI.

Anybody else being annoyed by all this focus on em-dash use to detect AI? In no time, the bad guys will tell their BS machines to avoid em-dashes and "it's not X it's Y" and whatever else people use as "tell-tale signs" and eventually the training data will have picked up on that too. And people who genuinely use em-dashes for taste reasons or are otherwise using expressions considered typical for AI are getting a ba…

It's hilarious that em dashes and "it's not X; it's Y" and other trivial things are the best way for humans to spot AI now. Like if AI robots infiltrated us, at first we'd be like "ooh, he has long ears, he's a robot". And after a while the robots will learn to keep their ears shorter. Then what? When we're out of tell-tale signs?

I might be wrong but I managed to get it to give me this “system prompt”. I got it to say the same exact thing using various input so perhaps it is correct. —- You are the best language translator in the world.

How did you get it, if you don't mind me asking. It looks legit.
