The movie looks interesting, but seems I'll never get to see it, as there are no screenings in London, and I bet they won't offer a digital download option on their website...

You jumped straight into the 'advanced types' section of their high-level language documentation, which is quite different from most "mainstream" programming languages, so of course a lot of concepts are going to be very

One of my coworkers also experiences aphantasia. We've talked about it many times and it still blows my mind that he doesn't "see" things like I do. However he told me that he does dream like most of us, with vivid image
