if (not enabled feature) then jump [to the end of this code] ...?

Age: reminds me of the bane of basic compilers: INPUT "which command?",a: GOTO a*1000

Agemixer (23:49:40)
correction: conditional programming

mirrorbird (23:49:27)
we are very complicated machines but very efficient.

Agemixer (23:49:24)
if [not true] then jump to [this]+n bytes

they were studying it because it could outperform the best known algorithms. Nature is wild.

mirrorbird (23:48:48)
there was sth interesting in the news not long ago, about the study of some biological thing, a fungus? which grows very efficiently towards its goal (food...)

Agemixer (23:47:58)
or yeah, if you want to skip a piece of code, then that is called proportional code, iirc
