2022-07-13 19:27:20 I still have no idea what it IS about

2022-07-13 19:27:23 great, now we get to brainwash you and get you into the cult of forth

2022-07-13 19:27:43 cult of forth?

2022-07-13 19:28:05 well yeah, forth is basically a dead language so I consider the people who use it cultists

2022-07-13 19:28:10 what is it?

2022-07-13 19:28:24 forth is a programming language that basically uses a stack to do its operations

2022-07-13 19:28:34 like esperanto ?

2022-07-13 19:28:41 programming

2022-07-13 19:28:49 esperanto is a human language

2022-07-13 19:28:52 oh programming language like FOSHIZZLE

2022-07-13 19:35:30 well, esoteric languages are stupid

2022-07-13 19:35:33 languages are hard enough

2022-07-13 19:36:14 true, but I kinda loved them

2022-07-13 19:36:23 I´m a bit silly, I guess

2022-07-13 19:36:52 anyway, this channel is all about old languages?
