It took me a moment to realize what BQN was; I had never heard of it before.

My 2 cents on BQN: I am certainly a novice with array languages, but I know they have conceptual power.

    Looking for a modern, powerful language centered on Ken Iverson's array programming paradigm

    BQN aims to remove irregular and burdensome aspects of the APL tradition, and put the great ideas on a firmer footing.
And BQN seems like the closest thing to a 'modern' array language. Modern, meaning, looking like my biased version of what language should look like.

Open source, has namespaces, and you can define your own operators and so on.

Heard of it from conor hoekstra
