is it any worse than python having syntactic indentation? it's a weird design choice but also understandable given the origins of the language and it certainly doesn't force you to write bad code.

yes because with python any half decent editor can reformat your code automatically to sort out any syntactic indentation confusion or errors, whereas in MUMPS this would probably break your code in a million different ways

except that we literally have hundreds of people who have the spare time and interest

i suspect the actual reason it's being done in secret is that lowtax and his boy wonder are ashamed of what yospos/fyad/shsc would bitch about

we have a winner, an open sores forums would probably the first, and only, successful goon project.

why is fyad on that list

imo we should have a backup forum setup on something like funny.computer for when the end times come

imagine the day, the desperate survivors who made it out in time before the forums apocalypse gather in syncirc trying to assess the damage, our visionary post apocalyptic leader smythe grabs the digital conch shell and tells us all of the new promised land called funny.computer, a dozen nerds post "i'll start the wiki" in unison
