That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include AI-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.
