Gathered around the water hole

chirp
ordered
frequency’s
self-unpacking stream

the honchos come to blows over our own chance to brag
“[T]he following Unlambda program calculates and prints the Fibonacci numbers (as lines of asterisks)
```s``s``sii`ki
`k.*``s``s`ks
``s`k`s`ks``s``s`ks``s`k`s`kr``s`k`sikk
`k``s`ksk”

“The lambda calculus can be called the smallest universal programming language.”
