Irritating when people try to draw our attention to otherwise banal things by exploiting the shock value of swearing. People that swear liberally in everyday conversation irritate me intensely.

The High Court of Australia ruled that swearing isn't by itself offensive. So I s'pose you're shit out of luck if you cross our border.

Somebody didn’t read the style guide, especially 1.1.2.

BF is slightly hard to read, more like a well written Perl. IMHO any solid enteprise should use Ook! or similar substitution - power of Perl, with verbosity of COBOL ! https://esolangs.org/wiki/Ook !

You can embed BF directly in your perl code!

There's an Ook! interpreter too but it's more limited.

People who get uptight about swearing irritate me. I understand getting upset about racial slurs or other actually loaded language, but getting upset about the word "fuck" but not "sex" is just making up things to be upset about.

Some people just don't like the overall crudening of society. Get over it.

Never been much into BF nor esoteric languages in general, but I love this attitude!

Regarding the comments at the top of https://github.com/bf-enterprise-solutions/ed.bf : I believe a modern-day developer comparable to Ken Thompson might be Fabrice Bellard, WDYT? Any other names that pop to mind?

You missed an opportunity to say "Get the fuck over it". :|

I do think it’s an important social issue though.

Swear words communicate important and precise emotions that no other words can communicate.

I totally understand why some words aren’t appropriate in a given social setting but it doesn’t mean the words are forbidden. Also those words can hurt when they are directed towards someone and you have to be cautious with them. But sometimes you want to hurt someone, sometimes you want to shock your audience. Sometimes you just want to laugh.

We are animals full of emotions and we need precise words to communicate them rapidly.

Wow, would love to adopt this on our infra! Just one teensy problem - legal's a bit worried about the name. Would you consider renaming BF? Maybe Brainfriend?

Maybe BE. Brain Excellence. Also, do you have a PowerPoint explaining how to setup a Center of Excellence?

The corporate flavor should obviously be named Braindead
