&gt; Birbs stagger as they walk: they are reduced in alternating associative order, starting with left associativity at birb index ⌊len&#x2F;2⌋:<p><pre><code> BB -&gt; (BB) BBB -&gt; ((BB)B) BBBB -&gt; (B((BB)B)) BBBBB -&gt; ((B((BB)B))B) BBBBBB -&gt; (B((B((BB)B))B)) BBBBBBB -&gt; ((B((B((BB)B))B))B) ... </code></pre> This is the worst operations order I&#x27;ve ever seen and I love it so much.

The fact there isn&#x27;t a crow (or other corvids) is a crime. Otherwise I enjoy this immensely.

I&#x27;m now waiting for a discovery, that hieroglyphs not only told some stories, but represented ancient algorithms in a programming language similar to this one.

This language would work well in the universe of the fictional absurdist documentary “the falls”<p>The Falls — Greenaway &#x2F; Nyman<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;dTKNMR9KDZg?si=BR521zn3VsK6zTEF" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;dTKNMR9KDZg?si=BR521zn3VsK6zTEF</a>

Reminds me of a similar project by Devine Lu Linvenga: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.xxiivv.com&#x2F;site&#x2F;logic.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wiki.xxiivv.com&#x2F;site&#x2F;logic.html</a>

I honestly have no idea what I&#x27;m looking at, but I love it.
