COBOL: You’re a fucking dinosaur

if you have a favorite language that isn't on this, you're a super nerd.

Believe it or not?

I don’t think I like any of them. This is just a job to me.

Just saw react in the “language” list and now I’m definitely a nerd.

As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

I am old and a nerd and I don’t see Perl on here.

Wait… is it the tiny camel at the bottom?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Yep. It has no logo of its own, so it sometimes gets identified by the animal on the O'Reilly book

You clearly were not a perl programmer 20 years ago

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

it was a joke about O'Reilly, which is also the name of this cunt

Yes, it appears it is. I thought it was Apache Camel but I was corrected as per the hump count.

Right hand to baby Jesus, I thought Kmart was basically no longer in operation, when did it become a programming language for nerds?

I am in fact an engineer and a nerd. Or as many of us like to call it, an enginerd

Edit: I wouldn't call Matlab my favorite though... But yes I use it. I mean, I'm on Lemmy... Like loads of users here, I like FOSS. So I'd say python is probably my favorite
