   Do you know the move of add a .zip of the source, onto the end of an .exe?

   **You're not forced to distribute without source. It is a choice.**

   Spell out the same bytes in reverse order before adding them and then the whole file reversed is a .zip with the .exe attached, only an .exe in normal unreversed distribution.

   Me, I first felt that distribution without source is a choice when we lost the .java for a beloved executable .class file circa 1999. Eventually we disassembled the .class to create new .java that ran the same, but we'd lost the comments forever, because .class files of the time consciously cut them out. As if living people speaking didn't much matter.

   How many Turns of my chats with you our macOS Claude gave us the progress of:

       ca431e1 litpyglass.py: Add Class TerminalFrameKeeper for --egg=frames
       eaba820 litpyglass.py: Rename to TerminalByteFrame from KeyByteFrame
       4e2f5de litpyglass.py: Copy in Class KeyByteFrame as developed by /litglass.py
       82e2593 litpyglass.py: Factor Class ByteKeeper out of Class TerminalBoss wrapping Class ByteLog
       aa8258b litglass.py: Promise KeyByteFrame bounces this Byte last, after 0..3 Bytes of 1 unfinished Char
       538333a litglass.py: Take ⎋[M Mouse Press/Release as 6 Bytes, never as UTF-8
       77d7092 litglass.py: Don't raise TypeError when ⎋[ Csi Frame followed by an Undecodable Byte

   Can we imagine reducing that cost by 2X?

   How would we reduce it? I didn't know what I needed until after we discovered it. Could we reduce the cost of discovery, for the next thing we try to discover together?

   Explain this more slowly, presuming less understanding in me?

   Have you ever stood in charge of two or more children?

   CLAUDE PROMPT

   Can't you two just cope without demanding intervention from me?

   If we can hold on to two parties, if we don’t lose our free & fair elections to the worst of the grifters, then our grandchildren could thrive, after all.

   We don’t have to bankrupt the us dollar. We could just stop tearing the muscle out of it.

   Nice people don't ship this form of Python code:

   code = ord(text)
   if text and text.isprintable():

   Because good reasons:

   >>> ord("")
   TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found

   >>> "".isprintable()
   True
   >>>

   This is a kind of nonsense which my present quality gates do not screen out of my life!! : (

   Claude says it is a "hand-kept" file, if you do go so artisanal as to let living people edit your code.

   Only US Senators of the Party can visit any military base nowadays. Free, we were.

   The local police are plainly more brutally suppressing the poorer zip codes, when moving against the inequality youth protests in France.

   That’s not the republican equality of the «L'École de la République». Actually not.
