EYG: A Programming Language for Humans | Hacker News

A post proposes a human-centered programming language for “makers” who can express logic but do not want to handle low-level plumbing.

The idea favors safer, simpler abstractions such as BigInt and cleaner syntax over traditional developer-oriented complexity.

A key debate is whether the language should compile to an intermediate representation or stay directly usable for end users.

The discussion also asks if this approach is better than relying on AI tools like Claude or Codex to generate code.
