HN should ban comments that are just Claude output

I’d rather just some sort of tag. Because sometimes it can be useful. This is a case where the community here can scrutinize the output and actually pull out useful data or steps or even starting points when information is coming in so fast for a developing story/issue

The (pretty obviously Claude'd) responses with actual steps you could take to mitigate were 1000% more useful to me than the "SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN WE'RE GONNA DIE" and the "stop posting AI slop" posts were, that's for sure.

It was your response. Of course you prefer your response.

The fact is you had no idea how useful or dangerous your advice was. PHP maintainers said to shut it down, how many people followed your advice instead? Did it work or just leave them vulnerable? Do you know?

Because you're heavily implying that the people who knew about the details of the vulnerability were panicking and thank god we had you with an LLM

It's just Claude output of what I've done; the other URL has the basics.

Why don't you do something useful and rewrite it so it's not claude output any more, but says the same thing in a way that you're satisfied with?

Then your own comment would not be such low effort and useless human slop.

Do you agree or disagree with the comment's claims? Did YOU verify anything? Let's all hear you fact check and proofread and reword what it said so it matches your standards, instead of just listening to you bitch and complain without offering any useful information.

Or do you not actually know anything about PHP administration, programming, and security, so you're only capable of information-free drive-by anti-ai posts, without any other useful content or corrections?

Ball's in your court.
