this rocks, but have you considered that Godot is woke now sir
Of course it’s woke.
Can’t code on a sleeping computer.
Least arcane syntax
Raku has the
⚛operator. And there’s APL of course:life ← {⊃1 ⍵ ∨.∧ 3 4 = +/ +⌿ ¯1 0 1 ∘.⊖ ¯1 0 1 ⌽¨ ⊂⍵}I can’t see a thing. I’ll open this one.
So does Java, btw. Using non-ASCII in code, though, is just brainfuck with extra steps.
PHP, too
I do love adding emojis in comments. Programmers can have a little unicode as a treat
for(int 😬 = 😖; 😬 < ☺️; ++😬) {...
There should be a Bad Quality Copper Seller Simulator.
tbf most modern compilers support utf-8
public abstract class 😤 extends 💩🥺

The Nam-Shub of Enki
They put Linear A in unicode, a language no one speaks anymore in a script we dont know how to decipher. Thankfully, in case we have some Encino Man style shenanigans, some Cretan from 3000 years ago will be able to type and read it and explain what it is exactly that we’ve decided should be supported in unicode.
Honestly its one of the better things tech bros have done. Unicode seems to be extremely liberal with what it’ll include. Its been a bit historically biased (adding fake languages a la klingon before real, actually currently used scripts). But they’re at least trying and providing what I hope is real support to linguists and those of us who just like to see how other people do scripts.
i have been a roadside unicode appreciator since i was a little baby looking at the early windows character maps. thanks so much for these comments.
yeah but scribing your code onto the tablets before feeding them into the computer to compile is a huge pain in the ass
I assure you, punch-stone programming will outlast us all
We need to start recording more stuff on punched gold plates.
Alright now Joseph Smith
Bit idea: Guy who believe code is law, but only if written by prophets on golden tablets (no you cannot see them).
Well it worked once before… Alright I’m in!
it’s more expensive but has the advantage of being less likely to break when you’re carting a wheelbarrow full of the code for your graduate thesis across the ziggurat at eridu and you stumble and they all spill out and fall down an entire tier don’t ask me how i know that
🤨
64 abacus beads ought to be enough for anybody
We need to get people onto memory-safe quipu!
And how many storypoints is the Epic of Gilgamesh worth?
