Have an interest in creating a toy language / compiler. I might learn more about Etherium to write a toy compiler to EVM. Or I might do something compile to 6502 or compile to .NET IL.

Why? Studied Math/CS, got the bug back to do something more algorithmic/logical thinking than the usual work stuff.

I have already written a silly language & intpereter which is a bit lispy and can do basic conditionals. loops and IO.

Would like to find a way to leverage into this. I.e. know enough that I can impress my work, they get me to do stuff like this at work, I get more hours learning this stuff so I get better etc.
