trochee, 4 months ago back in the day, we used to say "regular expressions are unreadable" and make "now you have two problems" jokes about Perl. now, of course, we've fixed that problem: we use billion-parameter neural nets to parse and reformat JSON not sure what paperclips we're maximizing, but i didn't sign up for this
