Rule of three could do the funniest thing right now.

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

My strategy of getting drunk to fix my flying anxiety rocks because I get to be drunk on a plane but also anxious anyways and then eventually also hungover.

The airport is the place people go to practice being bad at forming and using lines

Try as I might, I always have such a painful time with programming languages that require headers. It frustrated me when I was learning objective-C in high school, and it frustrates me now when I write C++ lol.

Let's figure this out together. See you in July!

Yatsi can compile and evaluate functional closures now, and you can watch in the closure visualizer: yatsi.dev/closures/ It's still tailored to my own perspective on what's interesting. Gonna build a lot of these playgrounds until I figure out what's more useful for other people

In search of: updog joke, but it's about upvalues

Yatsi can finally return values from functions. And recursion just sort of works out of the box (I do have to add some call stack limits just in case): No real closures yet. Once I add that, I'll start working on some fun visualizations for how that all works under the hood.

Yatsi can run parameter-less functions that return `undefined` now:
