why?

cause.

Satire maybe.
footy•1h ago
to move fast and break things, it's right there!
halperter•1h ago
I don't think I've seen satire in the form of a programming language before :). Neat. Does anyone else have any other examples? All I can think of are languages like Velado (uses notes) and Piet.

There's TrumpScript.

https://github.com/samshadwell/TrumpScript

ronsor•55m ago
It's designed completely wrong.

Trump programs would end with "Thank you for your attention to this matter."

zahlman•46m ago
The project dates to the 2016 election campaign and was archived in 2020. I don't think Trump had that particular speech affect that time around, or at least I can't recall it being memed upon the way it is now.
bryanrasmussen•1h ago
I mean theoretically brainf*ck is, but I'm pretty if you were to find satirical programming languages they would be satirizing development itself or a type of development (object-oriented, functional), and this is satirizing a purpose of development.

These are the types of projects that are becoming viable with AI. Previously they were too expensive.

I love this.

Some well-known satire/parody languages are Omgrofl, Shakespeare, ArnoldC, but there're many more. Can check https://esolangs.org/wiki/Category:Thematic & https://esolangs.org/wiki/Category:Joke_languages. But although weird esolangs, don't see how Velda and Piet be considered satire.
zahlman•47m ago
I would say these are just joke languages that aren't trying to parody anything or use satire.

When I think of parody or satire in programming languages, the example that comes to mind is the "C plus equality" project used for rather trolling critique of contemporary "social justice" ideology.

A rare example of language implemented atop PHP. Should've made with Llama for extra Meta points.
