Why HN links it
HN commenters link posts on a text-based arrow notation for graphical diagrams, comparing them to an ASCII arrow notation and a Haskell arrows implementation. The comments are bare links and do not judge the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
