The author has one of the most interesting projects list I've seen: https://thesephist.com/projects/
The "EXPERTS CLAIM limit TO BE 10" is the epitome of our times. People who agree can hide behind authority and people who disagree don't need any knowledge to do so, the fact that something was claimed by an expert is reason enough.
On a related note: I Just a new app called Boring Report on r/SideProject that strips clickbait content from articles so you can read the info without the sensationalism

Perfection.
I had a similar, never realized concept of a language named "Spouse"(no gender implied), with keywords such as "You promised we would ... on ..."(declarations), "you always ..."(loops) and "Fine."(marking the end of the program). I couldn't get the grammar to be both consistent and sound like the real deal though.
Funny little language. I used it in an exercise for the a workshop I gave at MCH2022 called 'Workshop: A practical approach to parsing' [1]. My solution can be found at GitHub [2] and can be used with IParseStudio [3] to execute programs written in Tabloid using the build-in interpreter.

But does it support fake news?

Looks like I'll be doomscrolling through massive code bases.
Gotta love goofy stunts that take effort to make! A spiritually similar programming language that also screams a lot is ArnoldC: https://lhartikk.github.io/ArnoldC/
For some reason I lost it at the "PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE"
Made my day! What about import statements like "CELEBRETIES LOVE X" or an "unsafe" keyword like "SECURITY EXPERTS HATE THIS TRICK"?

Some people just have way too much free time.

Brilliant, made my day
Hey HN! Fun to see this project from my college years on HN again. To clear my name, I have actually written other languages that are arguably more useful, like Oak [0] which I used to build a bunch of personal software infrastructure [1] including my current daily-driver apps for notes, longform writing, a Twitter client, a personal search engine, and a few other knickknacks.
I find building little toy interpreters and programming languages fantastically fulfilling, creatively energizing, and a really fun way to learn how such a common element of our work that's often a black box functions inside. I've written before about how to get started [2] with these kinds of little toy programming language projects if you're curious to dive in.
