I hate the syntax of this language. What do you guys think?

    I generally like weird language syntaxes but that looks amazingly unreadable

    This is on a yet another level of nope

    This is what happens when you complain about Python being to easy of a language, but rather finding yourself a different language, take a dump on a screen, throw in some more math and pretend you made Python harder.

    And for this reason, kids: if you mix drugs, you'll end up with something like this - a cautionary tale for upcoming language designers. (Looking at you google engineers..)

    I see indentations instead of {} blocks - I close the tab

    Technically it may be a good language. But if it requires effort to read/format the code - it's a deal breaker

    @electrineer yeah the logo is nice indeed. I actually can't unsee that now.

    The readme basically states that it handles like Rust, but for people who don't need any of Rust's benefits.

    As a huge fan and proponent of Rust, that just sounds awful.
