#24And really, aren't loops just ifs and jumps under the hood? So coding is just ifs
Indeed. Jump on zero and integer manipulation are sufficient for turing-completeness. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter_machine
All you really need is `mov`.

#30That first reply is so funny to me because it hits too close to home https://twitter.com/nice_byte/status/1466940940229046273 The more I do this, the more I gravitate towards the simple things.
