Dogescript

What&#x27;s funny about this is that every comment here is calling this useless, yet it&#x27;s something that&#x27;s very much in the hacker spirit.<p>Utility is not the end goal of everything.

Hiya! I&#x27;m the creator of this. I did not expect this to be here (nor did I especially want it to...). If it isn&#x27;t painfully obvious, this is a joke, so please don&#x27;t take it too seriously. Thanks!

In case you aren&#x27;t familiar with this meme, it&#x27;s the Shiba Inu meme, termed &quot;Shibe&quot; or &quot;Doge&quot;.<p>* <a href="http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/doge" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowyourmeme.com&#x2F;memes&#x2F;doge</a><p>* <a href="http://reddit.com/r/shibe" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;shibe</a><p>* <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/supershibe" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;supershibe</a>

This is really funny. I quite enjoyed it. I wouldn&#x27;t take any serious comments here seriously. Unfortunately the distribution of sense-of-humour in the world is not even. Some get a bigger chunk of it than others.<p>The next time anyone mentions CoffeeScript to me, I&#x27;ll send them here. Much better.

Yay, looping just for those who&#x27;re upset.<p><pre><code> very mad is true many mad plz console.loge with &quot;rawr rawr stop posting amusing&#x2F;funny things&quot; wow</code></pre>

All it needs now to be perfect is Hindley-Milner type inference.

I like it. And I always wondered why a programming language couldn&#x27;t exist to work as follows:<p><pre><code> Start Run at 60 frames per second and do Clear the screen Draw a rectangle at (10,10) with size (100,50) and rotate it 20 degrees Repeat End </code></pre> Or something along those lines - hopefully you get my point.<p>This would be fun for prototyping. I could just speak to my computer and have it translate my plain english into a working program :)

The thing that made me crack up was &quot;console.loge&quot; - love it.

I like the syntax! Reminiscent of <a href="http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOLCODE" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;LOLCODE</a> but probably more usable.

The logical next step would be to write a wordcloud generator in Dogescript. Which always includes a &quot;wow&quot;.

What&#x27;s funny is that it reads a lot like COBOL.

such plug<p>very terminal shibe<p>so hax<p>many monads<p><a href="https://github.com/thiderman/doge" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;thiderman&#x2F;doge</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6667414" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=6667414</a>

Am I the only one who read the title as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doge" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Doge</a> script?

I got a huge laugh out of this. I love how some of the statements I ended up writing could almost be interpreted as poetry, hilarious poetry.

This is totally awesome. I was already excited about Zach&#x27;s upcoming talk at CascadiaJS [1] but now I can&#x27;t wait to see what he&#x27;s got up his sleeve.<p>[1] <a href="http://2013.cascadiajs.com/speakers/zach-bruggeman" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;2013.cascadiajs.com&#x2F;speakers&#x2F;zach-bruggeman</a>

Are there any tutorial that go about implementing your own compile-to-js language?

It seems to me that a lot of these toy&#x2F;joke languages are just thin wrappers around existing languages. Something that can be accomplished by a few #defines or regexes to transform it into a runnable language.

Challenge for the month, persuade your boss to use this in production.

Well, you made me smile :)

Haha this has made my day

As someone who lives in territory that belonged to the Republic of Venice for longer than Italy has been a going concern, &#x27;Doge&#x27; means one of the leaders of that Republic.

I think it&#x27;s pretty funny. This is firsthand codecomedy.

Reminds me of LOLCODE. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOLCODE" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;LOLCODE</a>

The console.loge had me laughing pretty hard.

I want the Kittyscript plugin of Dogescript

BUT DOES THIS WORK WITH NODE.JS?!1

I&#x27;m not a js coder but this is really fun to take an eye on the dogescript

Very funny. Maybe useless but amusing.

Thank you, doge. I love it.

This lang gave me cancer.

Somebody had to do it.

Is it turing complete?

Comedy is dead.

so wow. much smile.<p>Great job on this. Made my day

so useless

Many of these internet memes are genius hilarious. People know the good Monty Python bits 40 years on. The good doge pics bust my guts just like that stuff. Will anyone get or remember this in 20 years? Interesting times.

Is the point that we need a transpiler for any idiolect to JavaScript?

I don&#x27;t even

pure gargbage

Absolutely disgusting, may I request that you reddit&#x2F;manchild honeypot users please refrain from posting your degenerate garbage on here.

rly?

I hate this bullshit.

Ok....why? And please don&#x27;t replay &quot;Why not?&quot;
