@vaporeon_ expect fucking goddamn Spirit Airlines who charge you for snacks but only tell you afterwards

@vaporeon_ i mean, free is kinda deceptive since the price of the ticket is accounting for various amenities on the flight, but that is very standard for the flights i've been on

@vaporeon_ there were free pretzels on the flight so i think we're good

@vaporeon_
what if the clodsire buys a plane ticket

@vaporeon_ but can you protect it from a hungry, flying clodsire?

@vaporeon_ then i shall make myself some pasta 🍝

@vaporeon_ come to think of it, i could eat some pasta myself 🍝

@vaporeon_ A more practical example I ran into occurred when I implemented an HTTP/HTTPS request library. Internally I used a recursive IIFE to automatically redirect response with 3xx status codes

@coriander this just seems reasonable i was hoping your hatred would be funny in some way :(

@vaporeon_ it's a functional programming thing and it only seems to be common in JavaScript

Here is an example:

const fib_20 = (function fibonacci(n) {
  if (n === 0) return 1;
  if (n === 1) return 1;
  return fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2);
})(20);

@vaporeon_ Immediately-Invoked Function Execution! (some people pronounce it as "iffy", I just say "eye eye eff ee")

It's a function that you declare and execute simultaneously :D

there is something about finding a use case for a recursive IIFE that just fills me with joy

@coriander i would like to know why you hate leaf blowers

@vaporeon_ wait that wasn't a bible that was a pokedex, my bad

@coriander a game needs at least 6 canonical lesbians, else it sucks

@wohali i wish i had the power to ban people

(you really should cw any depictions of the word S*attle)
