Off serious topic: Naming it after you girlfriend is a risky move, like getting a tattoo of her. Better get married and stay that way or the next partner is gonna be like: "wtf", you still working on your tribute to your ex programming language!?

Please follow the new language <a href="https://sandralang.org">here</a>" https://sandralang.org">here</a>"

Sick of all the hassle you have to deal with regarding <formerly new technology>...? The lesson here is ultimately all technologies suck, but you have to find the variety of suck you're willing to live with.

Alternative view is that they all have their uses and if you choose the right one for the use case, it makes your life easier, not harder, especially once you get to know it well.
