OISC? Ternary statements? Stack operations? Brainfuck?
I know what these things are, but they have nothing to do with my proposed ultimate computer language. I frequently have difficulty explaining my ideas. When I have some time for this, I'll put together a hypothetical code example, and post it here.
In the meantime, consider: "What is the connection between computer language and thought? To what degree does our choice of how we express software change the way we think about the problem?"
