Maybe HN needs some reflection, and satire is one of the best ways to provide it.

There hasn't been since n-gate stopped posting.

Comparing this with n-gate really shows the difference between AI and real work.

Superficially, they're the same, but digging in shows the real difference.

It's soul-crushing work, more suited for machines.

N-gate was by far the best thing about HN.

And slop is one of the worst ways

The moment slop becomes more HN-esque than original HN content, it tells you a lot about the quality of HN posts. That is very reflective to me.
