“Loopy Humor”

Bare Bones has been persuaded to dip their toes in the water of public beta releases. That means one of my hands, previously bound behind my back, has been freed up to let me write about what's in the public betas.

I won't bore you with much technobabble, but I felt this clipping from the release notes was funny:

    -   Fixed the infinite loop in the YAML module caused by some uses
        of the vertical pipe '|' (because Macs only need 1 Infinite
        Loop)

Note: YAML is a markup language based almost entirely on indentation. That has nothing to do with the reason for reprinting the above note, though.

If you don't get it, methinks you may not be a mac user (or have absolutely no idea what an infinite loop is)..

Somebody felt funny that day...

Postscript: yes, I confess, it was me.
