Using ASCII Art to Prove that I, not an LLM, Wrote Something

This is a blog post that I spent the last two months working on. I've run into a situation at work where there are several people who aggressively vibe-code all the things, and while I think that LLM usage is helpful in some cases, I don't believe that outsourcing your brain to it has any real usefulness. This post is about the techniques that I've adopted at work, and the history behind them, for proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that the documentation I write is by me and me alone.

I'd love to know your thoughts!

I knew someone was going to point that out before I fixed it

The build that fixed it failed before I noticed, and it's re-running now. >_<

edit: it's fixed now!

If there's one thing I've learned about website design, blog publishing, documentation publishing, and commenting on things it's that the nanosecond I push to production I'll catch a glaring error that I should've caught in one of the 4-5 passes before I finalized and published. Every time. Without fail.

Every single freakin' time.
