Why not learn COBOL if you hate yourself?

[–] nyan@lemmy.cafe 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

'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. 😱

Brainfuck is dead easy to learn, its incredibly hard to use.
