There's a lot of truth to this but there also still definitely are forms of social media where the paragraph is alive and well, they just take a bit more effort to find and get into

I've seen htmlforpeople.com go around, maybe useful. My default more comprehensive rec is developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/L... . If tutorials don't work for you, sometimes it's just use your browser's DOM inspector to see how a site you like did it. (I'm happy to answer random questions sometimes)

(1) Not really, I'm pretty tuned out of the leaderboard in general; I just don't think I'd get as much out of it as other ways I could be doing AoC or other things I could be doing now. (I have successfully continued solving the puzzles up to today in J) (2) No promises but I'll consider it!

Top of mind right now, J sort of... doesn't have the concept of parsing code before executing it? You cannot tell what the syntax tree of an expression like "a b c" is (to the extent "syntax tree" is a meaningful concept in J) until you know what a, b, and c actually are.
