This is a bug with the extension; if you open up the second link you'll see some red characters indicating that they're incorrectly encoded as they're not escaped correctly e.g. you can also see this if you try and fetch / display them by running this:

fetch("https://github.com/elecfreaks/pxt-cutebot/raw/master/_locales/ca/cutebot-strings.json")
    .then(resp => console.log(resp.json()));

if you compare it against the other files you'll see there is a missing second slash to escape the first one like there is in all the other localization files. That needs to be fixed for the file to be able to be loaded into the editor / the translations won't work right now.

That said, this also shouldn't be an error that causes a hang, probably just need to change a JSON.parse to a pxt.Util.jsonTryParse
