Something that has cropped up from time to time in the art world since at least the Dadaists was the idea that rather than distribute the artefact, you distribute the instructions to construct the artefact.

I think if we want to combat slop we have to be honest about why it happens, and the honest truth is that a blog post whose whole content was "I was only using the terminal and Claude code for a couple hours and it drained my whole battery wtf write me an article about this" would not be gaining traction. Some amount of polish and effort is needed, but we can still avoid the most annoying tropes.
