    I've just been reading the chicken spec and the Javascript implementation. I laughed so hard I had tears.

    "Error on line "+CHICKEN+": expected 'chicken'"

    Jetlag is doing bad things to my sense of humour.

    So, when do we get the first article on this language? We need to know more, I got a feeling there's some easter eggs hidden in there!

      Guess the Programming Language | Tutorialzine[^]. I managed 20 out of 20 - I'd be very surprised if you didn't get the same.

            Only 18, and a few were through the process of elimination (e.g. haskell & rust). The second js one got me (although I'm sure it's a well-known bit of horrible code), and I've never used scala or ruby, and guessed the wrong one :(

              It was the alert that clued me in that was JavaScript.

                  Premature clickage. It's a problem.

                      19 - Damn that JavaScript one! A Real challenge would have included COBOL, FORTRAN, PL/1 and a few other languages spelled in ALL CAPS!

                      - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                        I got 18/20. I had never seen Objective C, Scala, or Rust, or Go, so I managed to get a couple mixed up.
