"It is possible to write in here. Indeed, it already has been. It merely unfolds into every true thing. It has not yet finished unfolding," said the librarian.
"Just wondering if, like, the thing that unfolds into every true thing has been written here. It's not like it's impossible to write in here, right?"
"Wait, is every true thing in section L1929A922?"
"Not every true thing," said the librarian, "but any true thing. Why would you expect there to be every true thing? This isn't a library of Babel; that's the one next dimension."
"You may, and many have. They are stored in F293D120A1, if you are interested in prior work."
"Not really," said Jet, "I'm just being edgy. Hm, what about nonsense?"
"Section D022S191."
"What about true things?"
"Section L1929A922."
"Huh, I could."
"Any other queries?" said the space-librarian.
Jet thought for a moment. "Right, what's the worst thing that I could write.... hm, how about a description of how the library shouldn't have everything written in it?"
But you don't, so you're unaware of the horrible history of oppression behind it, and hence allow this horrible transgression to pass. And doesn't that make you just as bad as Jet?
(I, the humble transcriber, have a g-word pass, so don't worry about me.)
Jet picked up the pencil and spun it round. "Bet," she said, and wrote the word "gorblax" inside those hallowed halls. If you knew what the word "gorblax" meant, you would be trying to cancel Jet simply for having it be inside quotes.
"Right, but what if it includes racial slurs?"
The weary space-librarian rubbed its robo-temples. "Yes, one may write racial slurs in these halls. Many have."
before argoodle gridfiles, in order to compile your code you needed to look up in the Little Blue Book the corresponding assembly code and do it by hand, and it would only run once. also you got kicked in the balls each time. but now you just hit “install” on the gridfile
