"A TLV variable name is a random pronounceable three-letter string, sometimes with some vague relationship to its meaning, but usually not. Usually CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) is a good choice.

You should use TLVs much the way math people use Greek letters. The same concept should in general get the same name across different contexts. When you're working in a given area, you'll tend to remember the binding from TLV to concept by sheer power of associative memory. When you come back to it, it's not that hard to relearn. And of course, when in doubt, comment it."

If only there were some way to put, like, a comment right inside the name itself somehow. Almost as if the name of the thing could be a meaningful description of what it represents. But I guess that's just a language design pipe dream.

Reading that ought to convince most people that the project is not intended to be taken seriously.

It reads like a how-to guide for writing a IOCCC entry.
