Relevant not so much to the whole page, but to the snippet shown above: I read something recently, that I can’t find now, about a small set of questions (eleven, I think) to determine the grammar of a human language. It included things like how plurals are formed, whether adjectives come before or after the noun, how questions are asked, etc. etc. etc. Perhaps a similar set of “questions” could be formed for computer languages, whether “how does one do this tiny bit of functionality”, or specs for a tiny application, like an exercise off Exercism.
