I was slightly hoping this was a piece about ninja turtles.

This made me chuckle.

Is this like the FlatBuffers "zero-copy" deserialization?

Yes. Same for me as well. It just works and is easy for my fingers to remember without consciously thinking about it.

Somewhat related, does anyone know the difference between `erlang:suspend_process` and `sys:suspend` when trying trying to "unschedule" a process for executing reductions? Are they the same thing?

As someone who lives near the rocky mountains, I will say the part about getting struck by lightning by a storm that's up to 10 miles away is quite accurate.

I was out riding my bike one afternoon in Chatfield State Park in Colorado when I looked up and noticed how quickly the weather changed. Clouds had rolled over the mountains in the west and I heard lightning strike in the distance.

In the same second, I saw electricity arc between my hands and the handle bars as my fingers froze for a second. I didn't feel any pain or shock, but I got out of the area real quick.
