my VPS has 8 gigabytes of RAM. it's not exactly out of the question to buy a larger one, and in the future we could just, y'know, not preallocate _all_ the memory, and instead reallocate if a certain threshold is reached
parser events don't take up enough memory to warrant a stricter limit.
I do wonder if this limit is actually reachable with a 65536 character limit though.
for faster load times, and seamless updates.
because for some reason ServeDir can't do it correctly, and it tells the client "yeah hey nothing changed" even if something changed

can someone put a NaN to good use for once and store a pointer to some helpful metadata in it.
please.
I beg you.
I've been (hotly) debating this with myself today and I _think_ this is the right decision for an app.
note that I'm not changing the font size in the docs; that I think is valuable to have be user-controllable, but I'd really prefer if users would see the app the way _I_ design it to look
previously we'd create (argument_count + let_count) locals, which doesn't make sense.
so now `let`s use their own counter for their own locals, and we only request as many empty locals as there are `let`s.

the arity of unary and binary ops is guaranteed by the fact they're, well, unary and binary ops.
right now there's no way to call them with less or more arguments, so we may as well.
introduce a new, more ergonomic syntax for haku
not all features are implemented just yet. still missing:
- custom tags (non-True/False)
- color literals
- lists
this is quite common in other apps with an infinite canvas - such as Miro
also on laptops middle-clicking is a pain in the ass, though we should add more proper touchpad support for that case
error handling shows you the error and offers the ability to reload;
disconnect handling shows you that the page will reload in a few seconds.
it uses exponential backoff with some random sprinkled into it to prevent overwhelming the server once people's clients decide to reconnect.
you could paste discord convos into it.
discord.
conversations.
and they'd render.
like in Discord.
lmao.
I still do wonder how to do syntax highlighting on it, but I've seen prism-code-editor, which I _think_ hides the textarea's text and overlays a non user-interactable syntax highlighted version on top.
what's cool is that we could theoretically have many such overlays - for things like highlights too
but we'll see how that goes
