Every one of those is also an example of how people have written and spoken since before AI existed. But then, I don't 'Claude', so I'm not sensitised by exposure.

Droidify sometimes does a weird thing when installing apps: 1. Ensure Droidify is not running. 2. Launch it. 3. Tell it to install or update to an app. 4. Receive an Android system prompt to approve the install/update.…

The first 10 years are 1 through 10. That is the first decade. Consequently, the next decade is years 11 through 20. The first century is years 1 through 100. Therefore, the second century is years 201 through 300. The…

Aging or damaged batteries can have dramatic'ly different output curves than the system expects. What looks like x% to the system can be at the edge of a cliff on the curve, causing sudden shutdowns or power loss.
Quite often when I use a 1990s system, I encounter several things that are instantaneous, while modern machines take several seconds. Like, sending an empty folder to the bin: Win 10 this afternoon took seconds to…
