The blog post is entirely AI generated.
Cool, every kid who’s dropped a bomb in a computer game is apparently a war criminal.
Yeah, it's a bit of an awkward article. Just compare the paragraph headers to the paragraph contents - "Why a hex grid" and then the paragraph doesn't talk about hex grids.

AI stylisms are not necessarily bad - short, punchy fragments CAN make it easier to digest some text. But it can't be all punch. In a meandering writing (like this post), it comes off as unfocused and as a blasé imitation of actually focused, to-the-point, punchy writing.

It gives off of similar vibes as corporateese - like someone who kinda knows what "right/smart/good" sounds like, but doesn't or can't present something actually right/smart/good.

EDIT: Not that there isn't interesting stuff worth reading, but it does feel a little "someone put a big mac in a blender and I guess it's still decent".
