 To reiterate the punch list that *I would have needed for Computer Class 1*:
-* [ ] jump instructions need 16 bits of operand
+* [x] jump instructions need 16 bits of operand
+    - Whew, that took longer than I expected
 * [ ] splatterns
     - [ ] validator should ensure splatterns are the longest patterns in a form
-* [ ] add guards to loop forms
-* [ ] check loop forms against function calls: do they still work the way we want them to?
+* [ ] improve validator
+    - [ ] Tuples may not be longer than n members
+    - [ ] Loops may not have splatterns
+    - [ ] Identify others
+* [x] add guards to loop forms
+* [x] check loop forms against function calls: do they still work the way we want them to?
 * [ ] tail call elimination
 * [ ] stack traces in panics
 * [ ] actually good error messages
