Your voice, the animated dinosaurs combined with a really weird programming language make for an oddly entertaining video

Yep, got randomly recommended this and I don't regret clicking on it.

Imagine writing an Operating system in AsciiDots

[@nyakase]

SufferingOS

[@signisot5264]

It would probably look like block programming, as you would just create the smallest possible form of gates to copy and paste wherever needed. I'm pretty sure 90% of programmers tasked with creating something complex in Asciidots would create a very vertical program that looks like other programming languages anyways

[@mstefanwalker3654]

I think it changes the insert mode for typing so that you can overwrite characters as you go instead of pushing them back. Good for if you want to keep things aligned!

Fun fact: Base-15 is the best number base for the Fizzbuzz program. Sub-fun fact 1: If a number ends in 3, 6, 9, or C (for 12) in base 15, replace it with Fizz because it is divisible by 3 but not 5. Sub-fun fact 2: If a number ends in 5 or A (for 10) in base 15, replace it with Buzz because it is divisible by 5 but not 3. Sub-fun fact 3: If a number ends in 0 in base 15, replace it with FizzBuzz because it is divisible by both 3 and 5.

[@matheusd.rodrigues429]

This language seems pretty useful to teach what happens on metal. The dot being the electron

[@denyraw]

Except its not at all what happens on metal.

[@Forthro]

It may resemble hardware at the first glance, but in reality even Minecraft redstone is closer to metal, than this language.

[@xkarea2]

Esolangs are fun

[@hansdietrich83]

Sooooo ut basically a node based language but using ascii as a UI

This looks vaguely useful as an esoteric Hardware Description Language

[@zacharymarino8926]

I actually made a version of the calculator which does accept the actual symbols instead of numbers (and includes modulo)

[@sekoia2812]

That infinite loop creaturey made would probably mess up anyway, since going in reverse would mess up with the printing code

[@zewzit]

right? I didn't understand how the ( ) made it work lol? Unless asciidots ignores the commands in reverse if they don't make sense? but that's still very unsafe.. if it could be read then it would do actions you don't want?

[@lonelyPorterCH]

what a great language^^
