I hate that LLMs are a thing honestly. not because I don't think they can be useful, but because it makes me so insecure that my writing is too AI-like

I read the Wikipedia like "how to spot AI writing" and now I am fighting the urge to look through everything I have ever wrote in my entire life to see if I write like a damn robot

like a big one: I tend to summarize the content of my writing in the conclusion it at the end of sections cause that's how I was taught to do it in undergrad. I also connect sections with like, connecting sentences/ideas, cause I was also taught to do that in undergrad

now I am second guessing everything, and am genuinely paranoid that I'm gonna be accused of having AI write my shit, and I'll have no means to prove my innocence

I struggle with the fear as well however what sets us apart of LLMs is that our writing doesn't feel uncanny. when I read something of yours, I know you have made it and do not suspect AI in anyway. You might have more proper grammar than most but that doesn't make you any less of a writer. If anything you are proving that us humans can still be formal in our writing :P

I've been messing around with debian 13 for a while now while it was in testing, and am very excited to have it on my 2015 macbook pro now!! Debian is my fav OS, I just love its stability, and knowing that I can always rely on it working

gnome 48 has a ton of performance improvements over the I believe gnome 41 which was running on debian 12, and I believe gnome 46 on the ubuntu version it used to have. In either event, the performance of gnome is substantially better on the macbook, which I am super excited about!

I still would only recommend debian to people who just need a system that works no matter what. If you have new hardware or need of the latest and greatest software, you're better off on Arch if you are willing to put a little time into your system, or ubuntu and/or fedora if you want something that just works

I've been writing what I consider some of my best work. I won't be putting it here because I think it might actually be publishable. I am so proud of it, and if it does get published, I will share it all with y'all!! If not, I'll post it like my other unpublishable writing
