|
|
|
// ------------------------
|
|
|
|
// Beware travellers, lest you venture into waters callous and unforgiving,
|
|
|
|
// where hope must be abandoned, ere it is cruelly torn from you. For here
|
|
|
|
// stands the bastion of the Turbofish: an impenetrable fortress holding
|
|
|
|
// unshaking against those who would dare suggest the supererogation of the
|
|
|
|
// Turbofish.
|
|
|
|
//
|
|
|
|
// Once I was young and foolish and had the impudence to imagine that I could
|
|
|
|
// shake free from the coils by which that creature had us tightly bound. I
|
|
|
|
// dared to suggest that there was a better way: a brighter future, in which
|
|
|
|
// Rustaceans both new and old could be rid of that vile beast. But alas! In
|
|
|
|
// my foolhardiness my ignorance was unveiled and my dreams were dashed
|
|
|
|
// unforgivingly against the rock of syntactic ambiguity.
|
|
|
|
//
|
|
|
|
// This humble program, small and insignificant though it might seem,
|
|
|
|
// demonstrates that to which we had previously cast a blind eye: an ambiguity
|
|
|
|
// in permitting generic arguments to be provided without the consent of the
|
|
|
|
// Great Turbofish. Should you be so naïve as to try to revolt against its
|
|
|
|
// mighty clutches, here shall its wrath be indomitably displayed. This
|
2021-07-26 19:09:04 +00:00
|
|
|
// program must pass for all eternity: forever watched by the guardian angel
|
|
|
|
// which gave this beast its name, and stands fundamentally at odds with the
|
|
|
|
// impetuous rebellion against the Turbofish.

|
// My heart aches in sorrow, for I know I am defeated. Let this be a warning
|
2021-07-26 19:09:04 +00:00
|
|
|
// to all those who come after: for they too must overcome the impassible
|
|
|
|
// hurdle of defeating the great beast, championed by a resolute winged
|
|
|
|
// guardian.
