First comments on top threads
HN comment orderI was expecting dogescript: https://dogescript.com/ Love the fake O'Reilly book and "NOT'REALLY®" joke.
Haskell's syntax without Haskell's type system sounds like a nightmare. The type system is what makes me at least vaguely confident that the incomprehensible string of symbols that make up a good chunk of Haskell expressions are at least close to being correct. (And to be clear: I use Haskell professionally and love it - but the syntax is _not_ why most people use Haskell).
That reminds me of this blog [1] which is a BASIC! No, it's a Haskell too [2]! [1] https://augustss.blogspot.com/2009/02/more-basic-not-that-an... [2] https://hackage.haskell.org/package/BASIC
