Yep, totally agree! But I learned Go, so I wrote about that. :D I tried Brainfuck once, but I don't think my brain can wrap that enough to make it a career.

I wish "any Turing complete language" wasn't used as a catchphrase.

Especially that such a claim is so stinky. In what way the Brainfuck programming language environment is giving the coder same experience as Go, huh? Because, if it's not, I just invalidated your claim.
