So marketing department what our team to create a payment gateway from scratch, and must use our own programming language...

Personally , create a programming language is good idea but is time consuming and buggy

Why? Two unnecessary requirements in one go

@asgs Technically in our team all are confused AF

Want ge the innovation money from local government XD

Make a pseudo-assembly language like Berkeley Filters. Or a barebones interpreted functional language. Those are relatively easy. An implementation without optimisations can realistically be done in a week not including the stl.

Rolling your own payment gateway is not at all a good idea unless you're willing to sink a lot of time and money into it. Particularly if you want to deal with credit cards (→ PCI DSS).

@saucyatom I would like to know more..

Make a framework that adds one or two syntax cookies to an existing language and call it a groundbreaking and disruptive new language

@jak645 that's a valid reason to do it ! Money is a king in any company and developpers role is to participate in money making. Directly or inderectly. (Custom requests from clients, projects withj local governement, others)

Edit : it doesn't even need to work, you just need to prouve you spend XX days trying to make it

@NoToJavaScript its valide but if you don't secure everything you can be in deeeeeepppp shit when you play with money

@jak645 Oh I would NEVER do 'custom language" for that.

I would "pretend" to do it to get governement subvention. And if the check comes, simply explain how we spend 14 days and didn't manage to make it work with some timesheet logs. (excel)

@johnmelodyme Basically if anything goes wrong, it gets very expensive quickly. You have to follow all sorts of regulations and law. If you deal with credit cards you need to be PCI DSS certified (which might include an audit and is very expensive).

@saucyatom Sounds like is going to be chaotic....

WTF CREATE YOUR OWN LANGUAGE??? ARE THEY FUCKING SERIOUS?? Might as well learn some electrical engineering and chip together a new computer! This is extreme wheel reinventing

No sane dev is going to think it’s a good idea to create an entire language for something like this, especially when there’s millions of others out there. Again, they’re super clueless about this field, and totally unaware of how much sweat tears and time goes into writing a compiler.
They should shut their asses up, make like Tigger and do what they do best

@d-fanelli I agree

@johnmelodyme it’s about as bad as @Root ‘s project where she has to go through 200+ files and security check each one. I feel bad that you both have to deal with such abusive ruthless and cruel employers
