What’d I win?

I find it interesting and unnerving that I understood the code, but not the youthspeak.

I had to design a simple general purpose language for university, so I tried creating "ZoomerScript" with Jetbrains MPS

It only supports ints and bools, some logic and simple arithmetics

That’s more than you need.

This is actually funny. Imagine some automobile vendor misbehaving in some way and all other self-driving cars make a beeline for them just to ruin their crash statistics.

Could you elaborate what you mean by that? Should it be “was flat”?

There is much more support for climate action globally than people think

Those who don’t aren’t the ones causing climate change, so what’s the point in asking their support?

69% of the global population expresses a willingness to contribute 1% of their personal income

Giving money is easing. Not eating meat and not flying to vacations and not using a car and not importing Avocados and not buying a new phone every year aren’t.

People are willing to endorse climate action as long as it doesn’t affect them.

To anyone who is interested in a better design: Buttons should be labeled with verb+object combinations, for instance “Cancel subscription”. Also it’s better to use less generic words that apply to the task at hand, for instance “Terminate subscription”. Here, ‘cancel’ is the right word, so this hint doesn’t apply as well here.
