This is awesome. Just as I loved how AppleScript actually did user testing to try to figure out its syntax, these guys are taking an empirical approach to programming language design rather than making assumptions about what's intuitive. This one line says it all: "Results showed that while Quorum users were afforded significantly greater accuracy compared to those using Perl and Randomo, Perl users were unable to write programs more accurately than those using a language designed by chance." - andrep
