One does, in fact, turn up the squelch to get rid of static.

The "to" is missing; your brain was lucky enough to subconsciously fix the typo.

I wonder if these people have ever read Riddley Walker, A Clockwork Orange, Finnegans Wake, or even half of Scottish literature.

Man the irony of this piece. I think I'll have Gemini translate it into modern English because I was really interested in the subject. (ouvre?)

Again! Another website that annoys visitors with slide-in widgets click-to-continue. So, my perma-ban list of websites grows. Now I need to find an extension to block websites that use those slide-ins ...

Use uMatrix. Allow all 1st-party except scripts. Allow substackcdn.com's CSS and images. Block everything else. Problem solved.

Ah yes, of freakin' course, the current issue with modern literature is typos.

The one thing that LLMs can fix in a split-second.

The problem with modern literature is not LLM. Not, that it is not. The problem is typos.

For fuck's sake really...

My hottest take of the era: LLM voice is perfect grammar and spelling. What’s going to damage Literature?
