My 'nop' battle entry
Raw
nop_battle_entry.clj
(comment
"We were doing a 'nop' battle in IRC today. First it was manual typing of 'nop's,
but quickly we got certain scripts running.
Learning clojure, I thought I could come over the top easily. And I did. I
defined a lazy cycling sequence containing 'nop', then I tried to get the last
entry of that list.
Unfortunately this didn't just burn my CPU (as I expected), but it also allocated
so much memory in seconds, that my X got shutdown by kernel.
Wheter this approach is a win or an epic fail, I will leave to you.")
(def nop-seq (cycle '("nop")))
