Is there a public script for macroexpanding? Or is parent commenter a moderator? (if the latter, thanks for your work!)

Haha, I'm tickled. What aspect of my (intentionally quite long) profile made you think this? I am a regular user who appreciates HN, when something seems off I email hn@ycombinator.com.

All my macro-expansions are done manually, it only takes a minute or less. Don't let the programmatic appearance deceive you, I'm just decently consistent. Even at my $dayjob, for PRs people have repeatedly accused me of / assumed I'm running a linter when it's just me and my brain trying to make things easier for future brains down the road.

I'll take it as a compliment. Cheers.
