1. You’re welcome!

2. I too would like to explore other developments - not that I think C++ sucks or anything (not that I don’t think it doesn’t suck sometimes!) - Rust and all. Here’s hoping

3. At points during development of this, the ol’ impostor syndrome would kick in. “Surely someone would’ve done this already.” Or more often, “Meh, people will just roll their own version of this, it’s not that hard.” But then I’d actually go through the exercise of implementing whatever it was - and think to myself, “that WAS NOT obvious.” It dawned on me that by doing it, I proved (to myself at least) that it’s not easy to do it, and thus perhaps worth having started.

Thank you so much for posting everything that you did. Long-form details are hard to find. In my truest contribution, I suggest you're a pleasure to work with. Rarely have I seen anyone willing to give the deep-digest of their determination and problems with a function. Consider writing more!

EDIT

I didn't see the other posts about brevity. Fuck that. Details matter and so does the human experience. Who hasn't on this site been the unfortunate recipient of trying to get some brilliant but shitty function to work?
