I can’t even style a SCROLLBAR without it looking like a potato.
For those of you who are worried about AI taking over the world, this is the sentence produced by a “neural network” (a fancy name for my relative frequency matrix) after I had it read Beowulf, Galen, Guinea, Little Women, Mansfield Park, Peter Pan, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, A Tale of Two Cities, and The Call of the Wild. (All are freely available on Project Gutenberg in many filetypes including plain text, btw).
For those new to code culture, I encourage you to revisit the original post’s comment section numerous times over the coming weeks.
Because the battle over that choice for H is going to age like fine wine. Sure, sure, there’s a definitively right answer. But what power does definition hold in the face of emotion?

React a Cosmopolitan
Angular an Appletini
Express an Espressotini (yea I say that instead of “espresso martini” because I find it more fun this way)
C# is a Sazerac with equal parts cognac and whiskey, and the person making it will HAVE to tell you how “a lot of people say it’s the first cocktail, but that’s not really true”
if i were a drink i’d be cherry vanilla coke
You know what I haven’t thought about in while? Ruby. Maybe I need to polish off the old gemstone.
Before and after adding css animations

Update: While fun and neat, I still have yet to find a suitable hobbyist use case for Go.
I like Cilk++. It’s so nice to just be like “Hey I want this for loop to have some parallelism” then only have to replace the “for” with “cilk_for”.
Looking at you, C++
I won't ever take you back.
And yet it hurts that you don't even want me to.
