What could be more tedious than another low-level language based on subtle complaints about C?

Complaining that someone has invented a new low-level language?

YALLBOSCAC? How about a language named YALL and boscc as the name of the compiler?

seriously? i personally think this is an enormously exciting space to watch people explore, and i'm glad that the field seems to be enjoying a renaissance of sorts at the moment. there are a lot of powerful features that modern languages have developed, and if some of them can be brought to the C world without sacrificing the low-level features that systems programmers need, it will benefit everyone.
