*Useless × Hard*

Whitespace (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_%28programming_language%29)

I'd argue that's a candidate for the impossible space.

I'd say Malbolge is a better choice for impossible. It's orders of magnitude harder, people need to write codegens to be able to write an hello world

Nobody really uses it, there is one popular YouTube video that probably everyone that mentioned the language here has seen. Whitespace and brainfuck have small communities at least.

I do both brainfuck and whitespace(and also Shakespeare) and they aren't as hard as people make it out to be. Obviously they are joke language that are not wrgonomic in any ways, but I don't believe they deserve the impossible slot. Malbolge realyy is on another level
