speaking of "computers arent supposed to do this" i was playing around with javascript again

for example: i have atob (i just straight up overwrite it), atob where o is a homoglyph, atob where a is a homoglyph, and btoa where a is a homoglyph
@boots oooh in langs that support unicode identifiers might be fun, too, just using some lookalikes to make it look like it's different code
honestly the best way to horribly confuse people reading code is to have it sometimes pretend to look just like normal code
have a long multiline comment in the middle of something
sometimes use built-in functions and normal looking variables
and then just bend them until they're completely in the wrong shape
it's like one of those surreal optical illusion paintings, everything's fine until you realize the staircase connects to itself despite going down
it's fun
