And I thought brainfuck was hard to read... Pretty funny.

#4I can't understand why anyone would choose to use this language. Clearly it is unreadable and I highly doubt this scales. Can somebody give me a good reason for using this on my Facebook clone instead of a more mature language such as PHP, Python or Java? Also, I heard somebody was developing a web framework, Trolls under Bridges. Has anybody heard about this?

PHP, Python and Java don't have a 'lol' operator!

I don't think this is a language people use in real life. It's more for testing. When I went for a job interview at Alexander Interactive http://www.alexanderinteractive.com/ one of the tests they gave me was to write a short bit of code in Brainfuck to reverse a string. The string they gave me was "Hello World". I was allowed to look at the Wikipedia page regarding Brainfuck. They had an interpreter running, into which I could type my code and see the results. I had 15 minutes to make it work.
I think that is where these kinds of languages are used. I think the idea is to test how fast a programmer can learn something new. (For the most part, I'm doubtful about these tests.)

Sounds like either they were messing with you; you are messing with us; or Alexander Interactive doesn't respect their applicants
