Qoiet - saw BONES[^]
I was listening to some death metal and metalcore last week when Spotify put this one on shuffle.
At first it seemed totally normal to have this track in that particular playlist, but then things got a little different...
It sounds like death metal mixed with dubstep, but listening to some more of his tracks it turns out it's more like dubstep blended with death metal.
According to his biography "Qoiet (real name Bruno Brocker) is a producer whose incredibly unique style is as frenetic and ferocious as it is brutal and bombastic."
That sums it up nicely.
Not unlike anything I've heard before, but it's very nicely done and Qoiet takes things a bit further than most other bands and producers.
The biography also coins the term "metalstep".
In any case, sound of the week!

Nice little clue

I thought that lost direction meant to drop one of NSEW, which would turn friend into fried.

What, "Right" and "Left" aren't directions now?

It does but l and r also qualify

The author of python got his wish.
I have very carefully formatted ASP-like templates combined with an IndentedTextWriter to make sure all of my generated output is formatted precisely.
It was a lot of work. I did it because of Python. I don't target it just yet, but I plan to. Heck, I don't know Python well enough to write it, only to basically read it (kind of like my Spanish) but I'll pick it up as I go.
Still it was that bloody significant whitespace that made me put in the work.
So when Norm and Reggie spit out beautiful code, thank Python.

I quite like Python for certain things, particularly SBC development and working with the I/O stuff.
|
|
|
|
|
I refuse to write in it directly on account of its use of significant whitespace, other than line breaks which is bad enough (*sideeyes VB*) but I don't mind writing generators that target it for generated code output.

Doesn't VB allow multiple statements on a "line" ? 
|
|
|
|
|
It might, and it theoretically at least allows one statement to span multiple lines but doing so is messy.
It's better than the situation with Python which is why I'll still grudgingly use it if the need arises (thankfully it really hasn't).

Putting an _ (underscore) at the end of the line is messy? The flip side of this is you don't need semi-colons to terminate statements.
|
|
|
|
|
And we know that it's much too much trouble to type a semicolon. 
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
|
|
|
|
|
The underscore requires two keypresses, while a semicolon takes one (on most keyboards). Factor in the notion in C-style languages that there are fewer statements than lines, and therefore semicolons win.

Well, you can always fake it: Python Humor | Python.org[^] It's really just one extra character at the start and end of a {} block!

I quite like it, and any decent editor* will manage the indentation for you.
*In fact VSCode does it even without the Python extension installed.
