theres a lot of weirdos in this world, me included.
|
||||
|
||||
for some reason people think its, well, weird to be a weirdo, and they might be right.
|
||||
|
||||
but its something thats pretty useful, and heres why.

||||

|
||||
anyone whos actually reading this is probably no stranger to programming, and therefore knows about the
|
||||
|
||||
***hundreds of thousands of millions of different ways to program***
|
||||
|
||||
concept space is infinite, and programming is unbridled choice of abstraction, given human readable form (unless you program in APL)
|
||||
|
||||
any, single, thing, that you can program, you can translate into another form and use that instead, you can repeat this as much as you want until you have an ever-moving lovecraftian blob of code.
|
||||
|
||||
and thats the beauty of programming.
|
||||
|
||||
## minds eye
|
||||
|
||||
whatevers in your minds eye dictates how you do it.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
we come up with all these random equivilencies that six months from now youll look at and think
|
||||
|
||||
> le grill? what the hell is a le grill?
|
||||
|
||||
and thats the beauty, thats the charm and character and poetic tism that we should be celebrating in programming.
|
||||
|
||||
i want to look at a program like you would an art piece, like you would an arthouse movie, and think
|
||||
|
||||
> i wonder what was going through their head in order to influence this
|
||||
|
||||
i want to redo older programs in different "styles" just to see how they would differ.
|
||||
|
||||
i want to find the weirdest way i can do something, just in case we learn something from it
|
||||
|
||||
~~i want it to be socially acceptable to use cool anime profile pictures on linkedin~~
|
||||
|
||||
and most importantly...
|
||||
|
||||
`i just want my code to work :wq`
