Another argument, this time for performance: JavaScript is single-threaded, so while you wait for your hyper-detailed spring animation to play out, the JS engine does literally nothing else.

This is a pretty good post.
In general, I don't think `class` is a good place for styling.
No, it's not. You can read the rule as "If it's obvious enough your code has been LLM-generated, you will get banned" if you feel like the conciseness of the current rule makes you uneasy about using Copilot.
Besides, I suspect in the maintainer's case, banning unreviewed LLM contributions is effectively congruent to banning all LLM contributions.
If you think the rule is unfair towards LLMs because they can do such good, feel free to open a good, clean, useful PR clearly stating how you used the LLM to generate code.
That would make sense, but maybe not for the reason you think.
"Why use a calculator all the time? Just use ChatGPT!"
Maybe you want to be an helpless baby who can't do anything and needs to chug a bajillion liters of water and depend on OpenAI to decode base64, but the thought of this becoming the norm understandably upsets reasonable people.
First of all, from a public image point of view, it really doesn't matter at all whether he ate something off his foot or whether he says "Amazon swindle", because Stallman isn't the gateway into free softward anymore.
To an order of magnitude, no one in the last 15 years has heard of Stallman then free software.
The real role of Stallman is to avoid the movement being co-opted by soulless and/or corporate interests. As long as Stallman is here, you can't make free software corporate and well-mannered, which essentially means you can't absorb it into a marketing strategy for your next brand of phones unless you actually plan to deliver.
Plus, pushing intentionally buggy commits in a way that's subtle enough to be noticed, but not so subtle that it seems intentional (once the bug is revealed to be fixed) doesn't sound like the easiest way to make money. Especially on repeat. Wouldn't this be a little suspicious the third time around?
Von Neumann spam.
I'm not gonna get into detail, but for me, some defining elements:
- A compulsive need to criticize, demean and replace every piece of code written in C by Rust (rarely, it's another language).
- A willingness and strong activism to separate from figures that created the FOSS landscape, like Richard Stallman.
- A sort of laxism towards non-free software, and a particularly cringy hype towards corporate lip service paid to OSS, or trojan horses.
- Subtle propositions made to consolide FOSS communities around centralized services, and promiting those.
This isn't exhaustive, because it's just off the top of my head.
Aliens probably aren't this edgy, nihilist caricature. Most likely, they're kind of like us- Curious about us, hoping for the best, but irrationally fearing we're an "highly aggressive apex" or whatever self-absorbed nightmare the less enlightened individuals of their species dreamed.
Seriously, you think anyone is gonna cross 50 light-years to kill a bunch of featherless bipeds and plunder some common rocks?
You should look into it, some time.
Besides -- If you don't tolerate intolerance, you're intolerant (of intolerance). So you shouldn't be tolerated. Right?
