Thanks for feedback. Here's a pre-AI-slopped README https://github.com/nooga/let-go/blob/98c2e2ebf38519bceb4f799...

You can also refer to the HN post itself - it says why I think it's cool.

apologies if i was blunt - readme sloppage is a particular annoyance of mine that is quickly becoming common. i'm not against vibecoding, far from it. but a readme is a part of a project that humans immediately touch - seeing it littered with em-dashes signals carelessness.

i appreciate you taking my feedback with grace.

		I would like to point out, again, that em dashes are very much used by humans that run macOS or iOS — like in this case.

		No worries at all. I understand your point. I'll look into fixing this!

Why did you feel the need to slopify your README? The original version read much, much better.

I genuinely don’t understand why people do this.

Good question, perhaps I really was just careless. I'll look into fixing the README.

		It’s all good. Your project is awesome (and I say this as someone who has done Clojure fulltime for 5 years and nowadays write mostly Go).
