Fortran has a logo now?
It’s just an f in serif
We can just remove the HTML5 entry all together.
My dad first learned to Code in Pascal. Where would he fall?
I still do.
I wish they’d open source Delphi (and most of the libraries). Might actually breathe some life back into it.
rust: you’re about to get a blahaj and a tiny blue pill.
Can’t confirm, I’m old and a nerd and I love C++
The cool kids use AI to code
Happy to see Julia on the list.
Apparently I am a nerd. I accept that.
I used to be very opinionated about programming languages but now I just really love all of them.
Sure some might not be the best tool for some jobs but maintaining a language is insane and just such a mind-blowing endevour.
if you have a favorite language that isn’t on this, you’re a super nerd.
Believe it or not?

Ah, alcoholic then
Thankfully I suck at that, but holy crap it is prevelent in this industry. The alcohol abuse is cray. Doesn’t help when you travel constantly. I don’t travel much anymore, but the people who spend 90+% of the year in the field, while having a family, are fundamentally broken. Fun to party once in a while, but when they do this shit multiple times a week, I don’t understand.
Yeah holy shit. When I was starting out and tagged along a senior on a trip he literally hauled a big backpack of spirits with him.
Got out of that industry after a few years when I realized why every senior was drinking. The money was just not worth it for me.
Couldn’t agree more. Field service is one hell of a drug. Money’s good, variety is fun, the chaos and travel are fun too, and you learn a lot quickly. The latter often because some or all of the mfg. plant you’re visiting needs you to fix your stuff so they can run, and no one is coming to BFE to help you, lol.
But that all wears off, in time, and it starts to take a huge toll like you described. Never met a long term field service engineer with a healthy home life, or with their health in general. I got out because both of mine were crumbling, for real.
COBOL: You’re a fucking dinosaur
I used to develop with PHP all the time . That was back in 2010 when my teenage soul still had hope and dreams. Can someone still developing tell me what I should use for the backend today? Also I can never understand GIT as a single developer. The fuck is that? I’ve tried everything to understand.
never understand GIT as a single developer.
I use it to make it easier to work on stuff from my desktop, laptop, from windows or from Linux…

I recommend checking out Python (Django) and Ruby (Ruby on Rails) if you want nice and easy modern Web frameworks that also aren’t that weird if you have PHP experience.

Versioning your code with Git makes it much easier to experiment with new ideas. Cocked up a file? Pull it from the previous version. Create new branches for experiments, merge them in if they work, toss them if they don’t, or keep them around just in case, without them ever getting in your way in the “real” version.
And if you keep the code in a server (GitHub etc), that gives you a backup location and makes it easier to work on code on multiple systems.
I’m a single developer and I use it. It’s a great way to backup your files on the cloud with versionning.
I am old and a nerd and I don’t see Perl on here.
Wait… is it the tiny camel at the bottom?
Yep. It has no logo of its own, so it sometimes gets identified by the animal on the O’Reilly book
perl logo is just the infopop ultimate bulletin board logo.
You clearly were not a perl programmer 20 years ago
it was a joke about O’Reilly, which is also the name of this cunt
OCaml maybe
OCaml has a camel with two bumps. So, that’s gotta be the Perl dromedary camel…
Wait… is it the tiny camel at the bottom?
Yes, it appears it is. I thought it was Apache Camel but I was corrected as per the hump count.
It is indeed the sedulous camel of perl!
As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.
as an R user, what is matlab what is it about
It’s mainly a tool for working with matrices (matrix laboratory). This is useful for solving ordinary differential equations. Learning Matlab is usually a requirement for first year engineering students. I’m now a licensed chemical engineer, and I haven’t used Matlab since sophomore year.
i technicly will get the title of enginner (barely) from my uni course we use r for statistics and data analysis
Nope, JS is “You think you are nerd”.
Also, why React is there? It’s a lib not a language
HTML 5 is also not a programming language.
That being said. The JS hate is kinda cringe at this point. It’s a perfectly fine language all things considered.
Isn’t it Turing complete or was that CSS?
This guy right here is a certified nerd
This guy right here is a certified nerd certifier
definitely a nerd’s nerd.
Come on y’all, would you lay off the gatekeeping. Some of us still think the free web’s a good thing, lest we all end up in a walled garden hellscape. JavaScript is therefore needed if we’re being pragmatic. Just transpile it from TypeScript if you’re
too stuck up for dynamic languagesbuilding something big.Node: Did you say “Nerd”?
promisify(nerd);
I only believe in Bun.
