    So, I started implementing my weird Lisp dialect with functions that can return several times.

    It sounds like generators or observables, but it’s actually more like the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.

    When a function returns multiple times, the caller branches into alternate timelines.

    If a collapse of the wave function is desired, you would naturally use a “collapse” expression for that.

    Not sure what it’s good for yet, but I think it may offer some interesting powers.
