I think it is great that people point out LLM generated articles here on HN. Sadly, it feels like I am slowly loosing my skill to identify LLM speak. Maybe I am getting worn out of all LLM content... So, please, list the indicators and telltale signs from the specific article or blog post (like others have done here already). At least I would appreciate it a lot.

I guess this just shows how divided the world is right now (in a lot of ways), but for me this sounds like one of the creepier episodes of Black Mirror or Twilight Zone.

It is still used for operations procedures in, at least, European space industry. E.g., in mission control systems from Terma (CCS5 and TSC).

I am pretty sure there are people here qualified enough to edit that Wikipedia page in a proper way.

An "explorative" hex editor where you can do "fuzzy" searches, e.g., searching for a header with specific values for certain fields. (I thought ImHex should be able to do this (and still think it might), but haven't really figured out a good work flow...)

Then you are part of truly strange circles, among people who don’t understand human behavior.

Even though I do find your indifference refreshing I must say: it does matter for quite a few people.

Almost 16000 lines in a single source code file. I find this both admirable and unsettling.

Need to check it out. I guess you mean these:

- C++ Exceptions Reduce Firmware Code Size, ACCU [1]

- C++ Exceptions for Smaller Firmware, CppCon [2]

Modern autogenerated C code from Simulink is rather effective. It is neither garbage nor spaghetti, it is just... peculiar.

Not my experience. I work with a -fno-exceptions codebase. Still quite a lot of std left. (Exceptions come with a surprisingly hefty binary size cost.)

Do you have some concrete or specific examples of intentional compensation or purposeful scaffolding in mind (outside the topic of the article)?

Yes. The LEON series of microprocessors is quite common in space industry. It is based on SPARC v8 and SPARC is big-endian. And also, yes, SPARC v8 is a 33 years old 32-bit architecture, in space we tend to stick to the trailing edge of technology.

Also remember: Even though many of these articles/books/papers/etc. are good, even great, some of them are starting to get a bit old. When reading them, check what modern commentators are saying about them.

E.g.: What every programmer should know about memory (18 years old) [1]

How much of ‘What Every Programmer Should Know About Memory’ is still valid? (13 years old) [2]

But even in LEO, there must be quite a few SEUs and resets?

I've always wondered how well these RPi based cubesats really work in space. Really hard to find out. Also, people (naturally) aren't always eager to talk about failed projects. Maybe some people here on HN have experiences to share?

Great project! Been using it for years together with VTS [1] to visualize real-time and propagated satellite positions and attitudes, and also star tracker and payload "beams".

Swish is great, but it is sensitive infrastructure. It has already been down multiple times due to DDoS attacks (together with BankId). Don't let Swish completely replace a stash of cash at home.
