Friend, obviously new to the Pacific Northwest, asks if I’ve ever eaten Thai food.

Me, thinking back to all the times dining out, picking up, and that year I waited tables at a Thai restaurant: “yes.”

@Rob_T_Firefly @deadbeefmonster @maddiefuzz @thegibson Perl is a language for poets, and we saw how that turned out.

No, code as music is not a perfect analogy. But for that matter, musique concrète is still music.

More of a sludge rock fan myself.

@Rob_T_Firefly @deadbeefmonster @maddiefuzz @thegibson i forgot where i meant to take that.

Oh right yeah. Code is not generally poetry or music. But it has characteristics that might seem like music from a certain squinty perspective. But it’s not.
