- today I went to listen to some good ol'e Benn Jordan The Flashbulb at work, and guess what do I see?

wow. ain't that fuckin' nice.

+ NaNs should crash the program
% id = "01HPEMVAH97PDHJJS70SKG5VMN"
- any time I see a NaN I cry inside knowing how much pain debugging it's gonna be.
% id = "01HPEMVAH9Y3W35Y6Z4QMCJ5QM"
- I'd rather have the program crash and burn at the point a `NaN` is produced rather than have to sift through all the math to find that one division by zero I didn't account for
% id = "01HPEMVAH9XG3RK62RFXD29RWV"
- this does influence performance negatively, but it saves *so much* debugging pain and finding out which non deterministic scenario causes a NaN to propagate through the system
% id = "01HPEMVAH9CKAEQBMC8S6MR0GQ"
- worst case scenario you pull a Rust and disable those checks on release mode. that *does* work, but I don't like the idea of disabling numeric safety checks on release mode either.

+ operator overloading is good, but getters and setters are not
% id = "01HPEQ01JR57B057439SY90BQ9"
- this one stems from an argument I had today, so I'll write my thoughts for future generations' enjoyment here
% id = "01HPEQ01JR4YWC9Q6VYS82J0E3"
- I'll start by prefacing that I think operator overloading is good [*iff*][def:word/iff] it's implemented in a way that a single operator has only one, well-defined meaning
% id = "01HPEQ01JRBB8Z3P0KFJSR0SJN"
- this means `+` really means *addition* and nothing else.
% id = "01HPEQ01JRJJBP9C701B36ZR4N"
- this is practically impossible to enforce at a language level - what prevents the standard library authors from overloading `+` to mean string concatenation after all?
% id = "01HPEQ01JRY7R5QGJ2AM762PPN"
- however we can at least do our best by writing good defaults and coding standards that gently suggest what to do and what not to do
% id = "01HPEQ01JR4ZC0M68818EDVDBF"
- for example, allow users to define their own arbitrary operators that are explicitly *not* addition, to incentivize inventing new syntax for these things
% id = "01HPEQ01JRTWHH6PVNTFBDXPVT"
- the way I'd like to do it in [my dream language][def:rokugo/repo] is by a few means
% id = "01HPEQ01JRAAK5MQCZ7CFZ75FA"
- `(+)` is defined to be a polymorphic operator which calls into a module implementing the `AddSub` interface, which means you have to implement both addition *and* subtraction for `(+)` to work on your type
```rokugo
let AddSub = interface {
type T
fun add (a : T) (b : T) : T
fun subtract (a : T) (b : T) : T
}
fun (+) (a : let T) (b : T) : T
use AS : AddSub with { T } =
AS.add a b
```
% id = "01HPEQ01JR71RV53NNSFFDV6XN"
- note how this operator *does not* have any effects declared on it - this means addition and subtraction must not have any side effects such as I/O
% id = "01HPEQ01JRJR3ZAY24BP8TF5HH"
+ the `(add AND subtract)` rule enforces types like strings to take a different operator, because `(-)` does not have a well-defined meaning on strings
% id = "01HPEQ01JRGCPT2PGY5HK7HK7F"
- is `"foobar" - "bar" == "foo"`?
% id = "01HPEQ01JR3CVNNACZ6EGQ7NWM"
- by extension, is `"foofoobarbar" - "bar" == "foofoobar"` or `"foofoobarbar" - "bar" == "foofoo"`?
% id = "01HPEQ01JRK25NHG72ZX5XHEEJ"
- maybe characters are subtracted from the left string one by one? such that `"foobar" - "bar" == "\x04\x0e\xfcbar"` (wtf)
% id = "01HPEQ01JR25J5BY54J6RJ0KEC"
- so now getters and setters: what's so bad about them?
% id = "01HPEQ01JRQPZJEDDXV4BJN1GP"
- the problem is that given the rule above - *one operator means one thing* - getters and setters completely destroy your assumptions about what `=` might do
% id = "01HPEQ01JR0E8C0VJZ1D9TJRAG"
- what's that? you didn't expect `camera.angle_z = 420` to throw because 420 is out of the `[-π/2, π/2]` range? oops!
% id = "01HPEQ01JR0T4C2YC7TE9ZHXHT"
- what's that? you didn't expect `camera.angle_z` to return a different value every time you access it? oh, well!
% id = "01HPEQ01JR2KWGJVP7T4SH1SXD"
- at least when it's spelled `camera.angle_z()` it suggests that it might do something weird, like access the thread RNG.
% id = "01HPEQ01JRDNA35YPYV30CJG42"
- not to mention all the infinite recursion annoyance that sometimes happens when implementing them manually
% id = "01HPEQ01JRQFSFVPQA41MFZ91T"
- this is less of a problem in languages that feature automatic generation of getters and setters - such as Kotlin
```kotlin
var someVariable: String
get
private set
// no infinite recursion to be seen here!
```
but it's still an issue in eg. JavaScript, where one mistake can send your call stack down the spiral:
```javascript
class Example {
#someVariable = "";
get someVariable() { return this.someVariable; } // typo!!!!
set someVariable(value) { this.someVariable = value; } // typo again!!!!!!!!!! dammit!
}
```
and the error is not caught until runtime.
% id = "01HPEQ01JRMMS1B400DP6DV5M9"
- it's easy to fix but still an annoyance whenever you write a getter/setter pair.
