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.

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?

Luigi Thirty: Apr 30, 2006; 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
