It's cool and weird at the same time.

Cool because I'd like to think if someone made a Netflix tech drama loosely based around Bell Labs in the early 80's, this would language would appear in that series. A language created by some Nordic computer scientist who angrily shakes his fist at the world because it doesn't get adopted due to it's weird syntax. Of course instead we get Awk.



Slavic, not a computer scientist, more of a lumberjack, otherwise very funny comment :)

Weird syntax might be just awesome syntax you don't yet know :)
