it's incredibly low effort and very high yield. it only keeps boosting their SEO. they have enough human traffic to where they can totally get away with it too

the only way I can describe the modern Apple App Review process is "silly". necessary, but very silly. I was rejected AND had my account terminated for having Firebase Remote Config in my app, and they thought I was hiding feature

Everyone is doing this now. Granted, on Codex / Claude Code, you can disable it, it’s not the default to have it disabled. For some reason on Cursor, they keep shoving the “Made with Cursor” into my PR description despite me disabling

Just further proof that context is the real moat, not intelligence. All the models are already converging to be equally intelligent and that will only continue. GPT 5.4 / Opus 4.6 are the first two models I’ve used where I’m like, yeah

docker is bloated. i'm almost certain half of every image is dead weight. unused apt packages, full distros for a single binary, shell configs nobody touches. but the incentive is to make things work, not make them small. so bloat wins

Fair point, the "tuned to flag aggressively" claim was speculative on my part. Turnitin's own documentation says they favor false negatives over false positives. That said, their accuracy claims have been disputed before. Ins

nobody's asking who profits from false positives. these AI detection vendors have a direct financial incentive to flag aggressively. more flags = "more value" = more school contracts renewed. same playbook as selling antiviru

MCP is a completely useless abstraction, and I’m not sure why anyone would push for it over basic cli tools / skills.

"everything else is just efficiency" is a nice line but the efficiency is the hard part. the core of a search engine is also trivial, rank documents by relevance. google's moat was making it work at scale. same applies here.

Our lawmakers have zero idea how software works. "useradd bob" is an "account setup". does that need age verification too? haha

MCP's only real value is the auth handshake for third-party SaaS. the actual tool execution is worse than a subprocess call. more tokens, harder to debug, and the failure modes are worse. if someone just extracted the OAuth layer into

Of course it won't be gentle. Just look who is saying it will be gentle and what their economic incentives may be. You don't get 12 figure funding rounds by admitting that your product might destabilize the world labor market.
