Oatmeal - Make awk rawk
A friend online recently replied to something I wrote about awk by saying: [โฆ] itโs a danged shame [awk] didnโt continue to evolve the way Ruby,
Depending on who you ask rawk is either a compiler or a preprocessor for awk, implemented in POSIX awk. It allows you to write declarative, functional-flavored code, with support for first-class functions, operations like map and reduce, etc.

A screenshot that shows 2 windows, each taking up exactly half of the available screen space. On the left is a normal Firefox browser window. On the right is Firefox dev tools.
Something I missed until this morning, too, is that the game gets harder the wider your screen is. My usual web dev set up...makes the game easier ไน(โฅ_โฅ )ใ

I may be leaning in to making my little game, mountain, a platforming game for platforming sickos (positive).
It now features a hard mode and a super hard mode, that means you've gotta finish the levels in either 7 or 5 seconds.

A while ago I made a game. On accounts of it being pretty boring to play, though, last night I added an auto play feature to the game so that it can play itself. Tap the v key on a keyboard to enable auto play. Reload the page to turn it off.
