Maybe they're confusing "recursion" with "iteration"; and "iteration" in a similar sense to iterative programming and not to loop iterations.

That's why I never write a stop clause in my recursive functions. Makes everything infinitely better. /s

Thank you! I will try that and see how that goes. :)
Edit: I got a stack overflow! Does that mean I should download more RAM, or what am I doing wrong?!

But seriously, I think the author is referring to evolutionary algorithms. It does not make much sense regardless. Smith and Trinity are crucial to account for, but the author left them out completely.

#55It’s incredible to see Lana be handed millions of dollars to make a film and they bomb every single time no matter how large or spectacular. They just keep giving her money. It’s amazing how she makes the same mistakes every time and never seems to learn or gain any self awareness. And it’s amazing to think it all began somehow with the greatest movie of all time.

Yeah, that's my impression too. It's unbelievable that there was right amount of everything in The Matrix.
Cloud Atlas, Sense8, and other movies Lana made after The Matrix just feel a bit cringy and off most of the time.

#57I managed to enjoy Dark Phoenix, Last Jedi and Aliens 3 so godammit I'm going to enjoy it
Alien 3, it's kind of a big deal.

#58Recursion sounds like resurrection, so they must be the same.
What about the Matrix Resuscitation, because resuscitating someone is like 'resurrecting' them from the dead. Im sure they meant to call it Matrix Resuscitation, the meta is strong.

Not using a a language implementation with tail call optimization, or recursing outside of tail position, probably.

#60It was completely meta. They literally reference having to make a sequel because if they didn’t, “Warner Brothers would do it without them”.
From that point, just watch the pretty action and stop critically thinking, because they sure as hell weren’t.
