The article was written by an LLM

> A couple of my internet stranger friends and chatGPT says this number was chosen by redis developers post a massive benchmarking. The consideration was trade-off such as performance vs blocking, memory management and avoiding overhead.

Deep dive is a colloquialism in english, at least in the US.

We are going to see a lot of these about Redis since the source has so many comments. Basically re-stealing Salvatore's work again, unpriced asset.

is anything you don't like now ai generated text?

"deep dive" has been around for quite some time https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?cat=5&date=all&q=%2...

Have you ever been swimming? There’s absolutely such a thing as a surface dive which is what you do when you need to cover a great distance quickly in a shallow depth of water. It’s something every lifeguard who worked at a pool in america had to learn.

From an explanation analogy perspective people typically say something like “we’re just going to touch the surface”.

You obviously have not worked a lot, this term is everywhere from my experience, ubiquitous even.

Terms like this one, “alignment”, “low hanging fruit”, all not super accurate but established industry terms.

It's very common, and increasingly common because of AI, since it was trained on a lot of meaningless business speak, but that doesn't mean it's not lazy and thoughtless, or particularly lazy and thoughtless now it's mindlessly pasted.

Or they might just not speak english at work.

On the topic of linguistics, I think "dive" isn't a verb here, but a noun ("a dive").

echoangle

Yes, but that's also how the commenter used it:

> "Deep dive". When is a dive shallow? Isn't a dive implicitly deep?

wkjagt

True, but I was commenting on the fact the commenter specifically called it a verb, while using it as a noun. I can't quote it now because the comment seems to have disappeared.

Meh...the phrase "deep dive" has been around forever, not sure what about that phrase specifically gives "AI generated" vibes? For me, I just read through those and focus on the content quality of the article - "verbal seasoning" doesn't phase me at all.
