The sheer em dash density of this post really struck me, so I asked Claude to write a script which ranked text post Show HNs over the last week in order of em dash density. Script here: https://github.com/mturnshek/hn-em-dash-density/tree/master
This post comes in 12th place out of 668 with 0.6232% em dash density. I was also surprised by the large number of ShowHNs in the last week.

– en dash (U+2013)
- hyphen-minus (U+002D)
Anyway.
