Many of us are now using coding agents everyday and, it would seem, GitHub pull requests are developing a bit of an accent as a result.
An analysis of 47,000 PRs found a distinct vocabulary cluster dominated by words like “load-bearing,” “quietly,” “latent,” and “genuine" that grew from 1% of the corpus in January to 45% today.
The project samples 100 PRs a day, filters out bot and agent accounts, and groups descriptions into eight different writing styles based on word choice. For those of us familiar with their work, this cluster certainly sounds like the "load-bearing" vocab of LLMs.

One pattern I find useful for working with LLMs is a nice long ramble session. Sometimes the LLM needs more bits to understand what you're trying to achieve, but you're too lazy to type them. In these cases I like to lean back, switch to /voice and just ramble for like 10 minutes, total mess, anything goes, full stream of consciousness. Sometimes I declare it up top, something like "switching to speech recognition sorry for any typos...". Sometimes I turn it into a small interview of a few turns. But I find that the LLMs are somehow very good at reconstructing long incoherent rambles and often their echo of your own tangle of thoughts comes out quite a bit cleaner than what you started with. The result is that you improve the mind meld and have to correct things less from that point on.
