It’s not my bot.

But this was you, right?

https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/31138

I guess you were putting up the same PR the LLM did?

[bergutman]

I forked the bot’s repo and resubmitted the PR as a human because I’m dumb and was trying to make a poorly constructed point. The original bot is not mine. Christ this site is crazy.

I never expected to see this kind of drama on HN, live.

If I ever saw an argument for more walls, more private repos, less centralization, I think we are there.

The post is incomprehensible, but it does end:

Are you sure it's not just misalignment? Remember OpenClaw referred to lobsters ie crustaceans, I don't think using the same word is necessarily a 100% "gotcha" for this guy, and I fear a Reddit-style set of blame and attribution.

Sorry, I'm not connecting the dots. Seeing your EDIT 2, I see how Ber following crabby-rathbun would lead to Ber posting https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/31138 , but I don't see any evidence for it actually being Ber's bot.

I wrote a blog post about open claw last week… because everyone is talking about open claw. What is this Salem? Leave me alone wtf.

100%. I submitted the second pull request as a poor taste joke. I even closed it after people flamed me. :/ gosh.
