@Logical_Error Indeed, but there is a bit of a chicken and egg problem here: Unless it shows up prominently in a training data set, it won't matter, because the LLM won't know what to do with it.

Vaguely related, has anybody tried to use Claude Code to write something in INTERCAL, or Befunge-93? That might be a fun experiment.

#intercal #befunge #befunge-93

I'm writing a #befunge interpreter in #rust (for fun) , and I've decided to make it unicode compliant. That means that emojis will be fair game in the funge source code, and I think those programs are going to be amazing to look at!
🌘 Fungus:Befunge CPU 硬件架構
➤ 深入剖析 Befunge 語言的專用硬件架構
https://www.bedroomlan.org/hardware/fungus/
本文詳述了 Fungus 處理器架構,這是一個專為執行 Befunge 語言而設計的微碼化、18 位元、二維極致 RISC 機器。作者旨在透過專用硬體來加速並簡化 Funge 語言系統的建立,克服 Befunge 編譯的難度。Fungus 採用二維記憶體模型與向量暫存器,能以硬體層級高效解釋 Funge 指令,作者期望此架構能催生更複雜的 Funge 編譯器,甚至能產生 Fungus 原生碼。
+ 這是一個非常有趣的專案!能夠以硬體層級來執行 Befunge,這真是太瘋狂了。我很想知道他們是如何實現向量暫存器和二維記憶體模型的。
+ 將 Befunge 這種「惡夢般」的語言移植到專用硬體上,想法很獨特。作者對挑戰的熱情值得讚賞,但也讓人好奇實際應用上的可行性。

Fungus: the Befunge CPU

Fungus is a prototype hardware specification of a funge machine, a microcoded CPU capable of interpreting funges at the (macrocode) machine code level. Why? The same insanity that drives anyone to learn esoteric programming languages, of course.

Thinking in two dimensions is absolute madness but is what Befunge expects us to do: in this video, I challenged myself to write a program that endlessly prints random 0s and 1s. Will it behave or completely fall off the grid? ➡️⬆️⬅️⬇️ #coding #befunge

“If i were to categorize #programming languages like #art movements, there would be mid-century utilitarianism (#Fortran, #COBOL), high-theory formalism (#Haskell, #Agda), Americorporate pragmatism (#CSharp, #Java), grassroots communitarianism (#Python, #Ruby), and esoteric hedonism (#Befunge, #Brainfuck). And I’d say #Go, often described as “#C for the 21st century,” represents neoclassicism: not so much a revolution as a throwback.”

Attention, Spoiled Software Engineers: Take a Lesson from Google’s Programming Language

The language Go hails from an era when programmers had smaller egos and fewer commercial ambitions. My generation of strivers has a lot to learn.

The Hidden World of Esoteric Programming Languages

Programming languages are the backbone of the digital world, enabling us to create software that powers everything from our smartphones to space exploration. While most developers are familiar with popular languages like Python, JavaScript, and C++, there’s a fascinating and lesser-known realm of programming languages that exist outside the mainstream. These are known as esoteric programming languages, or “esolangs” for short. Esoteric programming languages are not designed for practical use or efficiency.
