Haskell, where the programmer, not just the whitespace, is significant.

I saw a video of someone explaining how Spotify is “listening age” works. And they made a plot where the X-axis was year and the left-most year was 1990. Everything left of that was labeled “way way back”.
Just put me in the ground now.

Hispanic heritage month started last week in the US, but Latin American Heritage Month does not being until October in Canada.
I propose that we call these two weeks Puerto Rican Status Fortnight, and never speak of it again.
