btw, Qualia is a meaningless concept to me, not ineffable; concepts definitely are. On the other hand, some philosophical ideas might just be plain wrong and thus not possibly translate to code that had to be logical (unambiguously). Why wouldn't there be logic behind?

That's new to me, but yeah, when I hear the term it is used to describe properties that are not discretely measurable and to me those might as well just not exist, or wrong as far as that relates to the grand parent post.
They may be ineffable to computers (at this time), but they are not ineffable to us. We can ascribe meaning to these words, and programming languages do the same thing. They provide a language with common meanings that both a compiler and humans can understand.
