Some people use ai tools to help summarize/read/or cross reference HN text. That's not a very nice thing you did there.

I'm not posting strings to sabotage Emacs either. Can we all just get along peacefully?


What strings would you post to sabotage Emacs?


I thought I was being facetious, but a quick superficial search says apparently that's a real thing!?

But I wouldn't post them directly on-site because that's obnoxious; (No matter my personal opinion on emacs. :-P )

:wq!


Indeed it is, and hence my comment - see, e.g., https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42256409. I was wondering how it might be done generally by posting strings here though!

Like I said. I don't trash your systems either. Sploiting on-site is not cricket. Shall we leave it there?
