How dare you. I’m a physicist, not an engineer.
when you’re so much of a nerd that your favourite lang isn’t in the meme (it’s Ada btw)
Technically, half of those are scripting languages not programming languages.
Anyway my favourite is Bash because I’m weird, even for a nerd.
how is a script not a program??
I always thought that programs had to be compiled to be classed as programs.
That’s just the difference between compiled and interpreted.
Interpreted programs such as web apps can very much be programs, after all.
Interpreted languages have classically been called scripting languages, it’s pedantic but it has use and meaning in the industry.
Nerds like to push this narrative
Mine‘s Lisp.
HTML 5 isn’t a programming language! (Yes, I’m a nerd)
Assuming you’re talking about HTML5 & CSS it actually is Turing Complete.
Wrong. Well, at least incomplete.
You need user interaction (e.g., clicking on a button) and HTML & CSS for Turing Completeness, apparently.
Has anyone ported doom yet?
Oof, I guess I’m a nerd
Awesome! I guess I’m a nerd!
I guess I’m an awesome nerd!
nerd.js
We need to rewrite it to nerd.rs for speed and memory safety!
Is this a safe space to say that my favorite programming language rn is Python?
When did you get diagnosed?
Its okay. I’m sure you’ll get over it.
Only if you use it for systems programming
Especially writing drivers amirite!
Big oof.
neeeeeeerd
No
Tap for spoiler
/jk obvi I like Python
No !haskell@programming.dev ? How the mighty have fallen.
It’s still my favorite for now, though I do find Idris and Purescript compelling, too, for different reasons.
LISP: You are an AI researcher and a nerd.
that’s not really true anymore is it though? in my limited experience now that nearly all AI is statistical, it’s mostly implemented in python, R, matlab, or the low level languages that implement their stats libraries like C and fortran
Don’t forget Julia!
Hey, I’m not that old!
Is Fortran really your favorite language?
No, actually not haha
It’s easy syntax for math
What if you don’t have a favorite programming language? I’m a firm believer that each language offers a specific set a features that makes each one uniquely suck and I often find myself at the crossroads of continuing to use this garbage or to learn a new language only to find it sucks in a different way. (/s another way of saying each language has its niche… (but sucks outside of it))
You are a nerd
Thank goodness, apparently I’m not old.
Not Verilog though. That shit is for jocks.
Vhdl gang rise up.
What if you prefer a DSL? I use G’MIC for image processing tasks.
Truest words ever. Would flash/action script be considered?
