@Cthulhu_, thank you for your thoughtful support. I was honestly a bit overwhelmed by the "witch hunt" atmosphere, as I simply wanted to share my perspective from my career and the history of SF2.

It is very heartening to see a veteran like you advocate for a more welcoming conversation. I am grateful for your kindness and look forward to contributing more to this community as a person. Thank you for making me feel welcome.

It's very suspicious that the phrase "a veteran like you" comes up in sequential comments to different users in the same reply chain given that:

1] it's likely the context for a theoretical LLM on HN would be the one comment chain

2] once something appears in the context window, it's more likely to repeat itself, and once repeated a single time, it becomes all the more likely to turn into an infinite loop

3] Generally speaking, human beings aren't quite this effusively polite, while LLMs are

4] if an LLM was merely translating, the repetitive loops wouldn't occur?

I'm sorry, have you met Japanese people before?
