00:16:29FromDiscord<DetermiedNim1> i've used `$>` and `$<` (stdout, stdin) so many times lol

06:42:17FromDiscord<janakali> In reply to @b0rsuk "Recently I've been code": it's just a different discipline. Like if you compare competitive sport to fitness/training.

07:42:48FromDiscord<DetermiedNim1> sent a code paste, see https://paste.rs/P7KRy
07:49:24FromDiscord<b0rsuk> Oh, so it uses a lot of punctuation.↵I've been comparing two `jq` lines that do the same thing, and have the same number of characters. I concluded that I prefer the one with fewer punctuation and more letters.
