If you google "vi release date", you actually get the release of a certain League of Legends character (I think), which was introduced in 2012.

Not sure if this is a llm or just lazy research.

Looks like it's written by llm where it mixed up the numbers

Regardless of how they messed up, they just successfully vaporized their credibility with me. It’s a big platform, and an obvious mistake that the editor should have caught. And if they care so little about my time that they’re not going to employ an editor, shame on them.

Needless to say, private parties get a lot more leeway with me. This isn’t a mistake that would phase me on a random person’s blog, but Stackoverflow speaks with the voice of authority. They have a duty to get it right.

vim is late 1991, vi was 1976, sublime text was 2008. Just seems like garbage writing (very easily could be LLM).

Seems like an LLM wrote this.
