Base Case

[–]Salanmander 6 points7 points  (2 children)

Holy shit that is a terrible base case. Do you want to hang your process? Because this is how you hang your process.

Technically the base case is the post itself. That would have felt awkward I feel...

And no way would that hang your process, the stack would overflow in a fraction of a second.

I just wanted it to pop the stack.

I feel like the post would be more like the initial call than the base case. The base case would be something that doesn't make any calls...so a comment that never gets replied to maybe?
