When browsing Hacker News, I noticed that many Show HN projects now have a generic sterile feeling that tells me they are purely AI-generated.
Initially I couldn’t tell what it was exactly, so I wondered if we could automatically quantify this subjective feeling by scoring 500 Show HN pages for AI design patterns.
Claude Code has led to a large increase in Show HN projects. So much, that the moderators of HN had to restrict Show HN submissions for new accounts.
