Yeah, it's clearly by Joy Machs.

Thanks, appreciate your kind words!

Yes, everything we do at TigerBeetle is handcrafted (by humans) for quality, including the art.

Joy Machs on our team is an artist, and as you spotted, he signs all his work—I always ask him to! :)

Joy also did much of the Zig artwork, which is how we met.

You can see more of his work here: https://sim.tigerbeetle.com (and see if you can find or "not find" an Easter egg in our docs).

As a general rule when it comes to this pattern of replying to "this is AI generated" with that link: the people that write these posts often read HN and attach a certain amount of importance to the opinions presented here, and it's important that people express their opinions about trends in how the majority of technical writing submitted to this website is either generated or presented, before they become well and truly entrenched as being problems "too common to be interesting".

There's a difference between criticisms of the content or the reader's ability to view it and complaints about "tangential annoyances" surrounding it.

Thank you for defending (handcrafted) art! :)
