This checklist for writing a new programming language is both funny and true! https://www.mcmillen.dev/language_checklist.html Excerpt: Your implementation has the following flaws: [ ] CPUs do not work that way [ ] RAM does not work that way [ ] VMs do not work that way [ ] Compilers do not work that way [ ] Compilers cannot work that way [ ] Shift-reduce conflicts in parsing seem to be resolved using rand() [ ] You require the compiler to be present at runtime [ ] You require the language runtime to be present at compile-time [ ] Your compiler errors are completely inscrutable [ ] Dangerous behavior is only a warning [ ] The compiler crashes if you look at it funny [ ] The VM crashes if you look at it funny [ ] You don't seem to understand basic optimization techniques [ ] You don't seem to understand basic systems programming [ ] You don't seem to understand pointers [ ] You don't seem to understand functions |

Hee hee - very Usenet, to my eyes. Although I see it's from 2011. I see there's a copy embedded in the SIGBOVIC proceedings for 2012 (which is constructed entirely of this sort of thing - "Association for Computational Heresy : : Advancing computing as Tomfoolery & Distraction") https://sigbovik.org/2012/proceedings.pdf |
