With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

I feel like there would be a HUGE amount of ecosystem value for Rust and async/await, if there was funding and the right dev(s) available to focus on improving:

* Improving codegen size/perf
* opt-footguns

The Matrix was a leap forward for movies. This is a leap forward in moviegoing.
