README could clearly make use of a cleanup, seems to be more like a session log dump now than a good introduction to the project for a new user. Maybe try something like "Remove anything from the README.md that wouldn't be helpful to someone who sees this project with zero context, for the first time. Rewrite all paragraphs and sections to be concise and remove all fluff, leave only important details new users must know before using the project".
- carloslfu 1mo agothanks! I'll do!
- Eufrat 1mo agoI 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.
- carloslfu 1mo agoI feel you! fix incomming
- Eufrat 1mo agoFor 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. I 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.
- cyanydeez 1mo agomost 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.

- embedding-shape 1mo ago> if someone completely new comes and read the current page... isn't that piece of information something they want to know? Again, 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?
- makira 1mo agoI 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.
- trollbridge 1mo agoI 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.
- embedding-shape 1mo agoHonestly? Me neither, I'd be embarrassed if I got caught not even looking at my own work before shipping it publicly. However, feels like the battle is loosing, and now it's just about softening the landing instead of being vehemently against something the vast majority seems to be engaging in. I refuse to participate myself, but at least hopefully I could help steer some of them in a better (more concise) direction.
- brookst 1mo agoAnd it can even be LLM work. Just write a good requirements doc for document creation, including links to good readmes, maybe a style guide for your personal style.. and you can have quality docs with near zero tax. Sure, hand editing each one is even better, but you can get 80% of the way there with zero ongoing investment.
- ricardobeat 1mo ago> Run Qwen3.8-Flash-Next on a Mac that can't hold it This 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.
