Noice. I used to support meditech in my help desk jockey days and it seemed like trash. Also I love how y'all use a language forked from mumps that has somehow become even more terse and indecipherable than the source language.

Please teach us MAGIC

i will teach you the ways of ~MAGIC~ if you can teach me how to escape this place. MAGIC $T is the one that is kind of like mumps, everything is a B tree. there is also magic fs which is terrible in completely different ways.

Here is something in $t that will print the fibonacci numbers under 10000. Note the left to right assignment using a ^, which looks like a little arrow in a magic terminal. # is a "prefix", which just outputs things to the terminal.

0^X,1^Y,D(13,10)^#,DO{X<10000 X^Z_D(13,10)^#,X+Y^X,Z^Y}

edit: the D(13,10) are just cr-lfs i put in there so that it would print out real pretty.

Holy poo poo. ^ is the prefix for globals and routines in mumps and that's making this really hard to process for me.

Also i escaped by posting about mumps until a goon got Stockholm syndrome and gave me a job

yeah _ is the concat operator and the ^ assignment operator can both be chained so if you did 1_2^A^B^C, all A,B and C would be 12. Also the language is what I would call militantly untyped. there is no real distinction at all between strings and numbers and you get hilarious behavior if you multiply 3 * "hello" or something like that.



the comments on this one are pretty great.

I know javascript and react pretty well. im pretty much a full stack dev, but all my back end knowledge is completely worthless. I get a lot of recruiter spam for web dev jobs, but I really am not great on the css/design side of things.

so lets say i did fake my death and moved to belize, wouldn't flying to belize be recorded and they'd find out I wasn't dead?

wouldn't it be best to go to another country, fake death there, then go to belize, possibly using fake identification?

Emergency confection port.

ugh writing an event system for this DOS game’s UI that won’t bite me in the rear end later

player clicks the FIRE button (which is technically a window)
window manager looks up the object at those coordinates, sees it’s the fire button, and forwards the event to the button
the button does whatever a regular button does when clicked on (redraws itself if it needs to or whatever)
the button (not being a subclass of Button) has no defined OnClickEvent action so it sends the event to its parent
the parent’s a custom window class so it sees that it has an event from one of its children
it looks up what it should do, calls FireAllMissiles() and eats the event
