programming language design 

i guess i should explain exactly what my bad programming language is going for

i want to make a language supporting both FP-style (side-effect-free) functions and imperative-style (side-effectful)... uh... let's call them procedures

i would love to have currying and partial application and other such nice things, but there's some other stuff i would like too, so i gotta be careful about syntax so it can actually express stuff nicely

programming language design 

in your programmery opinion, which function call syntax do you prefer:
- f(x, y)
- f x y
and how might your preference change in the presence of, say, partial function application (e.g. 'f x' returns a function that still expects a parameter y)?

shouldn't be hard, considering programming languages are all bad

Anyone interested in buying MTG cards for less than you would have to pay for them online? I kind of want to sell my collection; I don't really play IRL anymore and I have several grand worth of cards just laying around; I could really use that money for improving my mental health, making sure I can pay for my car and my medication, etc.

I have a large collection and a lot of cards, so feel free to ask for what you want. Lots of expensive EDH cards, as well as a few signed ones from when I was working at Mox.

Anyways, hit me up if you want cards :blobuwu:

i respect ms paint for sticking to her principles and keeping her maiden name. to be fair, i wouldn't want to be called mrs notepad either

i passed by a "free will baptist" church on the way to work, but i briefly misread the sign as "free wifi baptist" and all i could think was "well that's one way to convert people"
