False claims from people who hide behind random nicknames are
typically completely ignored by the community. Rightfully so.
Cybershadow is a well-respected member of this community,
contributing to the D ecosystem probably close to 20 years if I
remember well. He also happens to be the guy who wrote the very
software you used to write your message, in D ofc.
Rest assured that IF he used AI to do his PRs, he _DOES_
understand that code.
