This particular excerpt is reeking of it with pretty much every line. I'll point out the patterns in the English translation, but all of these patterns apply cross-language.
> classic chain reaction triggered by “hidden assumptions + configuration chains”
"Classic/typical "x + y"", particularly when diagnosing an issue. This one is a really easy tell because humans, on aggregate, do not use quotation marks like this. There is absolutely no reason to quote these words here, and yet LLMs will do a combined quoted "x + y" where a human would simply write something natural like "hidden assumptions and configuration chains" without extraneous quotes.
> The configuration system requires “bad → reject, keep last-known-good” logic.
Another pattern with overeager usage of quotes is this ""x → y, z"" construct with very terse wording.
> This wasn't an attack, but a classic chain reaction
LLMs aggressively use "Not X, but Y". This is also a construct commonly used by humans, of course, but aside from often being paired with an em-dash, another tell is whether it actually contributes anything to the sentence. "Not X, but Y" is strongly contrasting and can add a dramatic flair to the thing being constrasted, but LLMs overuse it on things that really really don't need to be dramatised or contrasted.
> Rust mitigates certain errors, but the complexity in boundary layers, data flows, and configuration pipelines remains beyond the language's scope. The real challenge lies in designing robust system contracts, isolation layers, and fail-safe mechanisms.
Two lists of three concepts back-to-back. LLMs enjoy, love, and adore this construct.
> Hats off to Cloudflare's engineers—those on the front lines putting out fires bear the brunt of such incidents.
This kind of completely vapid, feel-good word soup utilising a heroic analogy for something relatively mundane is another tell.
And more broadly speaking, there's a sort of verbosity and emptiness of actual meaning that permeates through most LLM writing. This reads absolutely nothing like what an engineer breaking down an outage looks like. Like, the aforementioned line of... "Rust mitigates certain errors, but the complexity in boundary layers, data flows, and configuration pipelines remains beyond the language's scope. The real challenge lies in designing robust system contracts, isolation layers, and fail-safe mechanisms.". What is that actually communicating to you? It piles on technical lingo and high-level concepts in a way that is grammatically correct but contains no useful information for the reader.
Bad writing exists, of course. There's plenty of bad writing out there on the internet, and some of it will suffer from flaws like these even when written by a human, and some humans do like their em-dashes. But it's generally pretty obvious when the writing is taken on aggregate and you see recognisable pattern after pattern combined with em-dashes combined with shallowness of meaning combined with unnecessary overdramatisations.
