Rust: you’re an annoying nerd
D: you’re a nonexistent nerd
We can just remove the HTML5 entry all together.
JavaScript: You are jus pretending
Fortran has a logo now?
It’s just an f in serif

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.
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.
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.
rust: you’re about to get a blahaj and a tiny blue pill.
Happy to see Julia on the list.
Apparently I am a nerd. I accept that.
My dad first learned to Code in Pascal. Where would he fall?
We nagged our highschool around 97-98 until we got a programming course, we wanted c++ but the IT guy thought c++ would just be a fad, so we learned turbopascal.
I still do.
I wish they’d open source Delphi (and most of the libraries). Might actually breathe some life back into it.
where is Dart :(
Can’t confirm, I’m old and a nerd and I love C++
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.
The cool kids use AI to code
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.

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 use it to make it easier to work on stuff from my desktop, laptop, from windows or from Linux…
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.
I wouldn’t say it’s a perfectly fine language but I also don’t understand the people hating on JS developers. If anything kudos to them for suffering through a language filled with such BS as “==” not actually doing what you think it should do (when coming from other languages).
I’m yet to find a non-LISP that doesn’t have at least one or two rough edges like that.
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
I didn’t certify that nerd certifier though.
You want to be looking for some other nerd certifier certifier for that.
definitely a nerd’s nerd.
Node: Did you say “Nerd”?
I only believe in Bun.
promisify(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.
Ah, yes. My favourite programming language (checks notes) HTML…
If your favourite programming language is HTML, we do not grant you the title of Nerd.
