I don’t want to be a cranky codger, but I dont get why 5 minutes of work cleaning up the README can’t be done before posting to HN.

replyThis is the first line of the README. I can't believe people are becoming ok with this, and I'm 100% on the AI train.
I hate this AI style writing because since it doesn’t really understand flow, it’s being inserted in irrelevant places and it is extremely irritating to read.
replyI feel you! fix incomming
replyFor what it’s worth, this comment was not targeted at you, but rather the model kinda forcing it. I get the sense that Anthropic did not think much of this, but it seems to have gotten worse with recent models and it really comes off as a kind of nails on the chalkboard writing style.
replyI have to image whatever style of writing this was trained on is a lot more pleasant to read and I feel bad for whoever writes like this now being associated as bad AI writing.
most of this stuff isn't really possible at this point _without_ models, so pissing and moaning about people publishing work and not humanizing is really silly.
replyI used similar prompts before. Now I simply say to "remove historical cruft" and results are good enough. It's the model itself that first used this wording, I found it concise.
replythanks! I'll do!

reply> if someone completely new comes and read the current page... isn't that piece of information something they want to know?
replyAgain, the README is (was?) written in way that it was clear it was a conversation between an agent and a human, with literal replies in the README. I'm in no way whining the way you are or demonstrate, and I even give OP helpful advice to fix it. What more can you want from me?
