I'm not sure if this commit breaks everything in my monorepo. I think it
will.
Why am I doing this? Perhaps it's a bad idea. I don't fully understand how
readTree works. My ignorance is costing me hours of time spent debugging. In an
effort to better understand readTree, I'm removing the default values for my Nix
expression parameters, which I believe have preventing errors from surfacing.
actors.go is my attempt to better understand golang's channels. I'm mapping my
understanding of concurrency from my experience with Elixir / Erlang and actors
onto golang until I have more opinions.
