gollark: Esolangs push the boundaries of what's possible and allow stupid things to be demonstrated also sometimes.
gollark: Esolangs offer insights into theories of computation and programming language design. Sometimes.
gollark: > <@!258639553357676545> it wouldn't work unless there was a serious applicatoin for esolangs<@766274162036572171> Like there are serious applications for Celtic studies or English literature.
gollark: Next September. We get a referee in January.
gollark: > i have already gone through all the ucas joyI'm likely to suffer that next year fortunately.
