I only skimmed the half-slop of the first article. The irony of vibe writing about vigilance ...
It tries to argue that censorship resistance requires the disinterested X/podcast mob to rule on non-consensus changes. At times it nearly makes sense when it says things like "censorship resistance requires vigilance," but it leaps to suggest changing defaults changes vigilance.
We need to fear a general lack of vigilance. And, perhaps, changing defaults and the lame protests made the general lack of vigilance obvious to people who weren't being ... vigilant. But that isn't Core v30's fault.
The more that I think about this, the more I think that core's lack of public relations handling may be a feature and not a bug. It woke some folks up from their slop coma and they are being forced to make sense of the world. Some may succeed. Others may need to wait for ChatGPT to be smart enough to do better thinking for them.
I want to understand the mindset behind someone who posts AI slop blogs.
Is there a financial benefit? Is it for some kind of clout, or to tell people you're doing something? Is it fully autonomous agents?
What motivates someone to post AI slop articles?

I think it's clout. Perhaps more importantly self-clout. It feels like an accomplishment because it looks like one from a distance.
In this case, I think it's also a subconscious DoS attack.
if you didn't read my 11-part argument, you are reducing bitcoin's censorship resistance because you're not being vigilant
