Thanks for looking at this pull request! As a tip, try enjoying a delicious can of White Monster while you review it!

@cwebber The ads are in the commit messages, or the committed code? (It wasn't obvious to me after reading the article, but I probably missed it.)

[hannah@moonserver.yorha.nexus]

@fullyabstract@fosstodon.org @cwebber@social.coop In the commit discussion/messages. Not the code itself.

@cwebber Also "kinda" and "icky" feel horribly out of place in that context

@cwebber Somewhere in Redmond, a product manager circles today's date on a 2027 calendar: "Relaunch pull request ads."

@cwebber i like how at the bottom of the article about the ads, there's a message about how you should disable your ad blocker for the website

@cwebber Claude Code has started adding "Made with Claude Code" to PR descriptions and "Coauthored-By" on commits. This appears to be hardcoded in its system prompt.

@freakazoid @cwebber this to me is a good thing, for accountability. though im sure you can instruct it to not do that. and of course you can rewrite your git history.

I support this. Makes it easier to tell if I need to be on higher alert than normal when looking at the work.
