I want to say it was only 4-5 days ago max. I just remember the post had over 100 upvotes and there was a medium amount of discussion about it. I believe the author of the language was in the comments section, but I could be mistaken.

Sadly, it was not this language, but thank you for the link

Thank you so much! I was able to find it by looking at the front page for a specific day.

Cool ... pleased I could help.
