Goat Radar / Noise Report
904 items landed in the noise bin, so here is the stink report.
- 83 launch-style posts looked like announcement confetti without enough builder meat underneath.
- The phrase "introducing" kept showing up 96 times, which usually means the marketing interns found the same thesaurus.
- openai-blog was especially noisy today and dumped multiple ignore-pile candidates into the trough.
