Written by AI? The whole text smells like it, this sentence near the end is the most suspicious: "The 2 bytes were never the goal. The goal was to see how far in I could get."

I stopped reading at “ 2 bytes on a 64GB stick is embarrassing. 2 bytes in your mouse is art.”
No way to know for sure, but worth flagging.

I hit "No rounding, no validation, not a "that's not a real DPI" error." and stopped. Garbage

So yea fair enough for being skeptical. That’s just how I write. I normally don’t do technical blog posts and in my free time I tend to write more in a bookish way. Especially since it’s not my first language. Thanks for checking the post out and this helps me

Write it yourself. This comment is fine, it didn't matter if your English isn't perfect. I got you. LLMisms sour the whole post with a bad tone and I and others won't stomach it. The impression of effort is more important.

is this comment written by Ai?
the first sentence is the most suspicious - too many comments accusing blogposts of being made by Ai for basically no reason

It's really not that hard to tell

I laughed at this bit, because I've also tried to debug things only to find it wasn't telling me what was wrong with my code (my own error, perhaps - a forgotten --verbose or -v):
> Turns out macOS's IOHIDManager silently blocks the longer HID++ report format you need to actually write to it. The OS just drops the packets. No error, no explanation, nothing. I found this out after writing a pile of probe code and staring at empty responses for longer than I'd like to admit.

That’s a beautiful writeup. Why did I do this ridiculous and impractical thing? To learn how to do it!
Well done.

Guess I should start buying mice instead of expensive RAM-sticks.
