@vaporeon_ i have failed in my objective lol

@vaporeon_ "From reading this, it may seem to you that stateful metaprogramming ought to be illegal, and that the committee feels the same way. The problem is that they do not know what to do with this “feature” that they introduced accidentally. The technique was found back in 2015, and since then the issue has remained open."
oh my GOD
