marto, tinyurl has been around for 22 years and their short links do not expire. Anyway, behold The Game of Life:

    I'm not sure this would impress my children. Maybe because we're not in the US?

    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

      I don't know why that would happen because when pasted into my zsh on macos all these slashes magically appear: 

      perl -MHTTP::Tiny -e 'eval HTTP::Tiny->new->get(shift)->{content}' htt
+ps://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl\?displaytype\=displaycode\;abspart\=1
+\;node_id\=574225\;part\=1

        That's impressed me!

        I'm connecting to a Mac at work through ssh in a Linux terminal which doesn't add any backslashes.

        map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
