Technology is indistinguishable from magic
It’s called sufficiently advanced technology.

catto trace lines for my headless daemon and track down this zombie orphaned child. Maybe there’s something in the journal about what it bound to before the memory pool told it to sleep. … Why are you looking at me like that?”It’s just math. The programmers just like playing wizards.
mathemagic, please.
“it’s just math”
Anyone who claims modern smart phone isn’t a cursed item is just kidding themselves.
Completely off topic tangent: the people that started the KKK also really wanted to play as wizards. If LARPing and/or D&D were a thing at the time they might not have become a thing
I still remember the first time I had to sacrifice a child to get more memory
Have you ever had to remove child from parent using fork? I have…
bro, clone, detach, kill, then fork
Did they become a zombie?
Guess he sacrificed the child not its parent
When killing children, it’s important to first identify parent child relationships, assuring total genealogical erasure.

Of cause its magic. We are pumping electricity into rocks to make them think.
You forgot to mention the tiny intricate runes we cover the slice of rock with.

Rust has a transmute function.
Curses is a Python standard library module (for those who like me have never had anything to do with Python).
Actually, curses is much older than Python. It’s a generic library to allow standardized output on non-standardized text terminals. If you see text based user interfaces on Posix systems, you can be 99% sure that it’s based on curses (or its successor ncurses).
Developed for C in the late 1970s, it now has bindings for dozens of languages from Ada to Zig
Do people still use original curses and not ncurses (which is a bit newer than python)?
I’m not too deep into the history of curses, but as far as I read, ncurses was just a rebranding of pcurses when a new maintainer took over. And pcurses is an open source clone of curses from 1983.
So whether python or ncurses is newer depends on if you consider the renaming as the birth of ncurses, or the date when its first line of code was written.
Not just Python. It’s a terminal control library for Unix-like systems (originally BSD, but widely ported).
What’s imagemagic?
It’s a console tool for image manipulation. Basically Photoshop with a command line interface. It’s working in the background of a lot of other software for image editing. Though it had problems with an unstable CLI interface in the past, so if you plan to use it in scripts, you might want to look at graphicsmagick which is a fork aiming for a more stable API.
Kill and invoke a daemon.

Yes, exceed… Such is this magic.
