No one who wants to write brainfuck would admit they need help.
-[--->+<]>-----.+[--->++++<]>.-------.----.--[--->+<]>--.++++[->+++<]>.--[--->+<]>-.-[--->++<]>--.---.+++++++.++++.---[->+++++<]>.Which is ironic, because everyone who writes it needs help. I've been thinking about learning it to show off how mentally healthy I am.
brainfuck is a member of an exclusive club of languages where it's much easier to write a compiler for it than to read a program written in it.
It's exclusive for a reason.
Why not learn COBOL if you hate yourself?
'Cause COBOL might actually get you a job? Esoteric languages can't even do that, so you have to hate yourself worse than COBOL if you're going to learn brainfuck.
"Worse than COBOL." This is a terrifying concept. ๐ฑ
Brainfuck is dead easy to learn, its incredibly hard to use.
Do they really need to? It's sort of a cry for help on its own ๐
My guess woild be.. only chatgpt can do it.
And honestly, thats good enough
