gollark: Just because I forget to commit my changes doesn't mean it doesn't have updates.
gollark: To be less "cringe".
gollark: I mean "hard but tractable", not "effectively impossible".]
gollark: That might be fun actually: I could probably build a language which is easy for me to write in (with a secret key) but hard for other people (without that).
gollark: You could do something like Malbolge's "cryptography" where it's *technically* possible to write things.
