"And here’s the absurd part: that history exists."

"It’s a jigsaw puzzle where the manufacturer had the original picture, cut it up, mailed me the pieces one at a time, lost a few in the post, mailed some twice, and printed nothing on the box."

"and that’s the entire problem: nothing announces a gap."

"None of this is any provider’s bug. Their webhooks work exactly as documented. The problem is what a webhook is: a notification, “something happened, here’s a POST about it.”"

I think my is-this-LLM alert is triggered not by mere use of phrases / constructions beloved of popular LLMs, but by things like unmotivated magpie-ish use of those phrases.

I didn't get that reading this (I didn't read the whole piece but I had read the parts you quote before reading your comment).

Often the LLM-beloved constructions are good usage in the right contexts.
