All current programming languages

Just .. miss the point, slightly, of what programming *is*.

We could do so much better, I'd like to start a language design group.

Anybody interested? (if so you could post a little bit about what sort of semantics and essence you'd like to work on)

We should write a Universal bytecode language. It will be powerful enough to support compilation from any dynamic language, including the algorithmic language Scheme, the slow as fuck language Ruby, and the FIOC. But it will be simple enough to allow efficient implementation directly in hardware. How does that sound.
