Quarks and Extensions

Hi,

I moved some posts to a new thread, as I think Mads is correct that “this isn’t a discussion thread about quarks.”

I’d also gently suggest that the preceding post in this thread is (in my personal opinion, not in official capacity as a moderator) edging toward a bit of an uncomfortable line, where it starts to look like an LLM lecturing Mads on how to fix it and not merely language assistance for a non-native English speaker. I know that “lecturing” wasn’t the intent and I don’t think any CoC rules have been broken, but (tbh) if I were Mads, in this context, seeing a big block of clearly machine written text with a general thrust of “you should do x y and z,” I would just skip past and not read it.

It’s a tricky balance between use of ML tools to facilitate participation in English by members from everywhere on the globe, vs what happens when the posts start to sound like AI-slop tech websites. We’re still figuring all of this out. One broad guideline that I try to keep in mind is, I don’t expect anyone to spend more time reading my posts than I took to produce them.
