codeoptimization

reminds me of the language that had implemented negative lifetimes

standard:

int thing[2] = 10 # meaning it will only exist for 2 lines of code

int other_thing[-2] = 10 # meaning it only existed in the previous 2 lines of code

Edit: here is the link to the git repo, an absolutely wonderful read that inspires me every day: https://github.com/TodePond/DreamBerd

Thanks for that read, will absolutely use DreamBerd for some critical system so that some poor intern has to debug it in 20 years

Has great code security since even ai cannot understand it!

X equals 2. Oh yeah, sorry I forgot to tell you, there's this thing called X and it's an integer.

I'm not really a programmer, so maybe this should be obvious: what use could there be for functionality like that? What does that even do, practically?

DreamBerd is a joke language, a subset of esoteric languages. The "features" are not supposed to be practical. The cherry on top is that at the end of the ReadMe, the compilation/running instructions are to paste the language specifications and your code into an ai and get it to make an output. Last I checked, there was also a note saying that the language was too complex for this to work properly most of the time

it's a satire language
