Making up for lost time

I'm writing this fresh after waking up from a nightmare that captures my insecurities related to transitioning later in life. I'll begin by sharing the dream followed by my interpretation.

The dream

Normally dreams can be tricky to interpret but in this case my dream left a pretty clear signpost to guide the interpretation: the nightmare begins right after explaining to someone that I'm trans.

In my nightmare I'm in middle school and I have to head back home, but I'm unable to take my normal bus home because I got back late from a field trip. On top of that I'm having to carry home more baggage than usual: In addition to my backpack I'm also carrying my cello and also someone else's duffel bag that they left behind at school.

Lightweight Functional Programming specification

The purpose of this document is to specify a baseline set of functional programming features that users can request and that programming languages can advertise support for. This feature set strives to be "JSON-like" and "purely functional".

The goals of this specification are (in descending order of importance):

Cultivate a portable functional programming style
