Sorry for giving feedback to someone who clearly is looking for feedback, why post it otherwise?

To share a joke. Whereas by your logic then George Carlin was not a comedian, but a policy wonk who just happened to use the stage and mic to solicit feedback.

Actually, to be fairer to GP - their _git with vibed storage_ project is not a joke, it’s *art*. And the world needs more art.

Right, a joke that is better because it's inconsistent and contains instructions to do stuff the UI doesn't facilitate? I guess I might be overly strict, but I like my tech jokes to make sense, at least internally consistent, and at least seemingly made by humans.

> And the world needs more art.

The world needs more human art, not just "any art created by any manner", that's just slop.

It explains what the thing does, and then there’s also a web demo, where you can run the code and see the reconstruction (which is what would happen when it’s checked out) and run that. You can alter the key cli args it tells you to.

I don’t see any instruction here that it’s telling you to do that you can’t in the demo.

I think you might understand it better if you took a moment to.
