(It's not enough to copy Snapchat - probably severely financially hurting them, by stealing their Prior Art - you have to do things like https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/09/snapchat-reporte... as well, and just remember: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1692122)

- the programming language part is dropped almost immediately by the LLM.

- The unrelated meat emojis to give it an animated background

- Painfully generic / not attempting to make a joke: "This language finally lets me express my true feelings about variable assignment."

- Every section has exactly the "right" length, ~3-5 items per list, ~2-3 paragraphs per section.

Hate to eat downvotes for saying this, I hate what FB / Zuck too and understand the impulse to treat it as unneeded negativity.

However, I've been on HN for 16 years, and can't remember a time I've seen a human-generated surface-level satire persist in the top posts. Seems to me the length and subject let the slop skate, at least so far.

For example, take the title. Imagine if the PL was a declarative way of describing a distributed system, with HTTP endpoints or web sockets connecting modules. Then, for harvesting, it gives unbounded ability for nodes to read and write to other nodes outside of the standard interface. You can just go in and read/write their data, without any public interface needed. Of course someone else can probably come up with something better, but I think it’d be cool to see something that more fully uses what a “programming language” means.

This was made by claude code as a demo to someone, and because I thought it would be funny.

It actually works have a look: https://github.com/jayzalowitz/zucksharp

... any other version will break it. RIP SW engineering.

I guess this has become a mantra: "Going forward is a way to retreat. " TTOP
