  6. Yesterday, I took my family to the Vancouver FC vs Langley United game.

    I’ve never been to a Vancouver FC game because it’s far from where I live. But since we were in the neighbourhood anyway—and the weather was nice—I thought this would be a good way to spend a Sunday.

    This was a pretty important match since it’s a Canadian Championship game, and the winner plays CF Montreal in the quarterfinals.

    Langley United play in the BC Premier League, which is considered Tier 3 on the Canadian soccer pyramid. But you can’t take Tower 3 teams lightly. CS Saint-Laurent, which is a Tier 3 team beat Inter Toronto—and that was a game that also happened yesterday.

    And that wasn’t the only upset so far this year. Atlético Ottawa beat Toronto FC just last week. So it’s been an awful month for Toronto #soccer this month.

    Langley United did a great job against Vancouver FC. There were moments that I thought they could pull off an upset. But in the 2nd half, Vancouver FC got two goals.

    It was a good time with my family. My wife got a hat and my daughter got a scarf. And they both love soccer.

  21. @mhd I was quite fond of Amiga #CLI syntax, which many did not consider a proper #Amiga subsystem because of #BCPL, but it allowed commands to pre-declare the arguments in a uniform, documented way similar to Python’s #argparse.

    It’s actually handled by BCPL’s rdargs() function, documented in cl.cam.ac.uk/~mr10/bcplman.pdf (p68).
