Legit: A language based on a Git commit history (morr.cc)
28 points by efm on May 2, 2019 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments



I can't barely find time to like work, and enjoy my family life and doing chores, and then, there are people like that. The world is a crazy place


I guess time at the Recurse center is substituted for work here?


Can someone describe a practical case to use such a language?


It's an esoteric language, they usually aren't designed with any practical application in mind. They're more like art projects.

Despite that, I can think of one interesting use case: steganography, to hide one program inside of another. Kind of like whitespace[1].
