It uses XML-like syntax:

<fun>
  <name>sum</name>
  <in>
    <int>foo</int>
    <int>bar=0</int>
  </in>
  <out><int>foo+bar</int></out>
</fun>

Make sure to make ample use of mixed content elements.

<statement><var>bar</var> = <int>0</int></statement>

statement: 
  comparison:
    - kind: libcompare.EQUALS
      comparators:
        - foo
        - bar
      whentrue:

               content: foo does not equal bar

God I hate it

Lol, I'm sorry

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Don't apologize, it's beautiful in its horribleness

How did you come up with such a ****ingly stupid syntax?!

[–] hedgehog@ttrpg.network 1 points 2 years ago

They probably have experience with Spring

[–] Lightfire228@pawb.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It haunts me in my dreams

[–] VitaminF@feddit.org 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks, I hate it.

Can you please link to a medium article on how this will help utilize AI blockchain so i can show it to management on Monday?

[–] notabot@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I like it, this is clearly very enterprisey and solution focused, but I would like to suggest a couple of amendments if I may?

Namespaces We should make full use of namespaces. Make the structural tags be in a language specific namespace (to be referenced in every function spec, obviously) but change the in an out params to use the parameter name as the tag, namespaced to the function they're for, with a type attribute.
In memory message queues Have all function invocations be marshaled as xml documents posted to an in memory message queue. Said documents should use a schema that validates the structure and a function specific schema to validate the types of arguments being passed. Namespace everything.

I reckon we could power a medium sided country if we could generate energy from the programmers despair.

The whitespace is not only required, but it must be tabs and spaces.
