FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Offical Announcement Of (SUCKS)

With this document, I formally announce the Secret Underground Clojure Kollective (SUCKS).

We of the Kollective firmly reject normative spelling and oppressive rules around anagrams. We stipulate that (SUCKS) must always be enclosed in parenthesis.

Yes, we will publish a (SUCKS) Manifesto. Obviously. However, that might take a while because we are Lazy. Not in a character flaw way, you understand. More in a solidarity-with-seqs way. But the result tends to be the same, so a Manifesto might take a while and the whole thing might stop with a baffling exception later.

In order to be the moral force for good which the world so desperately needs, (SUCKS) has reviewed best practice around high energy moral issues such as Climate Change, Equity and The Game of Thrones Finale. We will soon make appointments to the following positions:

  • Good people
  • Bad people
  • A Devil incarnate
  • A list of Sins
  • A Holy Book (or holy movie)
  • One or more Sacred Objects
  • A Righteous Path
  • Punishment for apostates
  • A White Horse

Never let it be said that we don't appreciate a good design pattern.

In the early absence of a Manifesto and the comfort of moral certainty, know this: we of the Kollective firmly reject the everyday Bourgeoisie Programmer with their opulent syntax and operator precedence. We warn them that, come the revolution, they will be first against the wall. Comrades, take up your parens and join us now in seizing the means to be productive.

The Kollective will make no further comment at this time. (SUCKS) forever!!

P.S. On second thought, rather than a Manifesto, maybe we just release a video "Lazy made Easy" - me drinking a Cocktail, made by someone else, while floating in a swimming pool hammock. Wait. Did I just invent the swimming pool hammock? I think I did.

That was, like, totally our last comment at this time.
