This guy ships!
Look how rolling his own basically everything, except an OS, seems to work pretty well. Given time and ability, making what you need almost from scratch may be not just viable, but productive.
The "EXPERTS CLAIM limit TO BE 10" is the epitome of our times. People who agree can hide behind authority and people who disagree don't need any knowledge to do so, the fact that something was claimed by an expert is reason enough.
The author has one of the most interesting projects list I've seen: https://thesephist.com/projects/
The author is, if this is all real, one of the most prolific programmers I’ve seen. Wow! Can I have some of what he’s on?
Perfection.
I had a similar, never realized concept of a language named "Spouse"(no gender implied), with keywords such as "You promised we would ... on ..."(declarations), "you always ..."(loops) and "Fine."(marking the end of the program). I couldn't get the grammar to be both consistent and sound like the real deal though.
Looks like I'll be doomscrolling through massive code bases.

The secret is that they always write "you" as "u" and then spend all the time saved on programming.

What made you think that? Based on the author’s Twitter feed [1] and own website [2] they currently work at Notion [1] https://twitter.com/thesephist [2] https://thesephist.com/
They say in the OP that they did this as opposed to database homework.
Hey HN! Fun to see this project from my college years on HN again. To clear my name, I have actually written other languages that are arguably more useful, like Oak [0] which I used to build a bunch of personal software infrastructure [1] including my current daily-driver apps for notes, longform writing, a Twitter client, a personal search engine, and a few other knickknacks. I find building little toy interpreters…
Write a program in Tabloid that takes 5 numbers and returns the product of the first three numbers plus the product of the last two.
Run it with the numbers 4,5,7,8,9.

DISCOVER HOW TO product_with_five_numbers WITH a, b, c, d, e
RUMOR HAS IT
EXPERTS CLAIM ab_product TO BE a TIMES b
EXPERTS CLAIM first_product TO BE ab_product TIMES c
EXPERTS CLAIM de_product TO BE d TIMES e
EXPERTS CLAIM result TO BE first_product PLUS de_product
SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT result
