Did people like John Wick 4? I liked the other 3. Seems like a no-brainer that I should enjoy the 4th as well.

So, I watched a trash movie and it was bad enough I am looking for a chaser, but now I'm scared of all these possibly trash movies making everything so much worse.

in control flow, sequences encode the arrow of time.

branches explore actions in alternate timelines, and merges streamline them.

loops are the effect of time machines sending values back in time that replace their younger selves.

immutable values represent the past that we can remember but not change.

mutating a value creates an altered copy and erases the original from the historical record.

Parallel universes are real! You shall be sent to live in one... forever.

You will get a choice between 5 universes that each have a similar collection of languages though technology & culture may be very, possibly hazardously, different.

To make your choice you may request one (1) kind of typical artifact. This will be fetched from each universe, you may compare to make your choice.

Electronics will be disabled. If the artifact doesn't exist... you get nothing.

What do you request?

if trauma means approaching every person like the worst person you have met, then "tough" business people are masters at exporting their trauma as culture.

every "tough" business person started out open and honest, learned through their abusers that this position is called "naive", and then turned into a traumatized abuser themselves.

"sorry it's just business" == "sorry i need therapy"

humans see meaning in random things all the time. but random things having meaning is also the modus operandi of the entire universe, so who can blame them.

    i thought i'd update our LLVM codegen from 13 to 16, but i had to give up. they transitioned to opaque pointers, and all sorts of instructions now use a different notation. it's time i get rid of this crap.

    If you want to implement some sort of feature toggles/switches in an application, and that means you have a class and an interface for each toggle, which only has an IsEnabled bool property to check if it's on, isn't that a bit of overengineering?
