Better start now, the US might need a new one soon. /s

A smart contract as the declaration of independence would be awesome though.

Is there some language or “syntax formatter” that turns source code into something more off a visual programming language? Like a WYSIWYG markdown editor.

Like python doesn’t have curly braces, but you could add some kind of “block illustration”.

Or you could have illuminated initials for variable names to make them more unique.

So IDE with syntax highlights? Those blocks things are also pretty much shown in most IDE, what do you use to code?

I even have prettifying turned on so the keywords like in, lambda, etc are prettified.

See the problem with this is that even if I write code with this font, I can’t force people to read it in this font.

Of course you can. Instead of committing the code to a repository, you just take screenshots of the everything and commit that instead.

And then you program a runtime that calls an AI to parse images and execute your code in real-time!

That way you don’t need Gimp to make edits. I like it, very human!

The only real way to write protect it is by printing the pdf into pdf (making it a pdf of an image).

And then maybe you could use something like #define in C to map them back to valid characters? Not sure if there’s a good way to do that in other higher level languages.

You could always write your own program that runs before the compiler. Simple character replace for those unicodes to ascii

Many editors can read config files from a file in the repository itself. And oftentimes it has the highest priority. Just gotta know the IDE of your target and they have to click “trust this project”.

Just add it for VSCode and Jetbrains and you cover like 75-95% of devs
