»This is an awful language. Don't program in INTERCAL«

@adventofcomputing is talking about his work on bringing the original INTERCAL72 compiler from 1973 back to life again. Podcast recommendation, enjoy: adventofcomputing.com/?guid=b0

The manual has no appendix. It got removed. It has tonsils. (s h) #INTERCAL #AdventOfCoding

It's really important to have a sense of where you want to get to. Just don't ever forget where you're coming from.

For [reasons], did a slightly deeper dive on #INTERCAL today.

(See also my previous poll about the correlation between font making, conlang, and esolang communities)

Yep, there were silly people back then too!

You're about a quarter of the way to an #Intercal compiler 😂

🌘 INTERCAL:幾乎不可能
➤ INTERCAL的限制和獨特語法使其不適合創建密碼生成器。
muppetlabs.com/~breadbox/inter
INTERCAL是一種滑稽的編程語言,其語法復雜且反直覺。在INTERCAL中創建密碼生成器幾乎是不可能的,因為它缺乏內置的隨機數生成或字符串操作功能。INTERCAL的主要挑戰是其限制和獨特的語法。 Chat-GPT建議使用更適合此任務的語言,例如Python,Java或JavaScript。
+ 這篇文章很有趣,我從中學到了很多關於INTERCAL的事情。
+ 我從未聽說過INTERCAL,但是這篇文章讓我對它產生了興趣。

"Make everyone present in INTERCAL"

Honestly, it's better than Haskell or APL.

The programming language INTERCAL is designed to frustrate users, unlike all the others which just happen to do that.

@leonerd This sounds like the conditional logic equivalent of #INTERCAL’s `COME FROM`: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COMEFROM

Of course, there’s an Acme #Perl module for it: metacpan.org/pod/Acme::ComeFro

Ich hätte nicht gedacht das #Intercal “DO COME FROM”-Anweisung noch einen praktischen Nutzen haben würde: »IBT führt neue CPU-Befehle ... ein. ... Der Trick des Konzepts ist, dass der Prozessor bei jedem indirekten Funktionsaufruf erwartet, bei jedem Sprungziel auf genau ein endbr32 oder endbr64 zu treffen. Ist das nicht der Fall, löst das eine Exception aus ...«

Is setjmp() in C actually some kind of COME FROM statement?
