I should make sure I make 10 less posts every single day...

I make 79 posts a day

hooray, the money arrived! an hour after I already got home!

I'm gonna go take it out of an ATM so it doesn't get absorbed by bills or something, and then also buy some cheap biscuits

(not going to buy real food because
1. we have enough to last us until I go back to the chinese grocery tomorrow
2. real food at the local shops is significantly more expensive than at the chinese grocery
)

I'm so mad.

I spent 1 and a half hours loitering about in the Chinese grocery, but because the money never came, I couldn't fucking buy the ingredients I needed to cook dinner for the next week.

I only had enough pocket change for 2 packs of 2 minute noodles

time to attempt to buy some noodles

I keep forgetting to drink water and HOLY HECK IT'S BEEN HALF AN HOUR SINCE I POSTED THAT WTF

I need to drink some water!

^ of course, these Computer Bros who complain about functional programming are also the kind of people who refuse to learn anything and think they're always correct, so this doesn't actually solve any of their problems

bad stuff:
* it's so ugly... not as ugly as C, but there's still too much punctuation marks
* the book I'm reading (real world ocaml) starts with a guided tour, which covers the basics of the entire language - if I wasn't used to functional programming, this would have put me off completely
* I want to use this language to do a whole bunch of stuff, but I'm scared people will say I can't because it's not as well known as other languages

good stuff:
* this is a good functional language
* it's also a good "compromise" language - every Computer Bro who has whinged to me "X is why functional programming isn't good enough" would find those problems solved with this language^
* being able to easily switch between functional and imperative and OO inside the same program is great
* named function arguments is pretty cool, and makes it easier to read other people's code

me: I want to make a let's play series!
also me: I don't have the attention span to watch LPs anymore
also also me: *is incredibly boring when I play games*

a keyboard, but on a rubiks cube and the cube shuffles itself while you sleep
