@neauoire What does working on this feel like?

@dualhammers It feels like using a very mechanical thing, every part moves during transformation and you can watch each step reshape the system into a new thing. The most familiar experience this reminds me of is using Orca I think

@neauoire It's interesting how seeing the transformation at a scale we understand can make something feel very different

@dualhammers I agree, here's the steps to reversing a word and what it looks like during programming, it's very "mechanical", is the best way I can describe this.

@neauoire Is there a benefit for this over other methods besides personal curiosity and edification?

@dualhammers it's just a different way of thinking about computation. It might have certain advantage over other programming languages for certain tasks, but it's so underdocumented and explored that everything has yet to be tried.

One of the appeal to me is that the entire language implementation is only 300 lines, so it makes it pretty portable and minimal in the number of feature it has. It makes me look at things a bit differently too, which is always fun.
