Comment on Lost languages discovered in the oldest continuously run libraries (2017)parent

That's a good summary, thanks! With the only departure being that programming in 1s and 0s is very hard for humans and so we develop abstractions on top of it to make it easier.

Whereas the baseline language I'm proposing we use would be very easy for humans, and in fact would be much easier than the local languages that would be kept the same to express whatever they're good at expressing.
