     THE MARTYR OF BUTLERIAN JIHAD (icon_of_computational_sin@mstdn.starnix.network)'s status on Tuesday, 12-Mar-2024 18:58:38 JST THE MARTYR OF BUTLERIAN JIHAD

     AdaCore people were pushing for a C-like syntax for Ada. I found their post about it and I can't tell whether it's trolling or they are serious.

     I write at around 10 lines of code per day. With this new syntax I save up to 30 keystrokes. That’s at a huge increase to my productivity!

     we have created a font that allows you to display Ada code with the new syntax <...> The font contains other useful ligatures, like displaying the Ada assignment operator “:=” as “=”, and the Ada equality operator “=” as “==”.

     What for the love of fuck is this?
