    Rust: you are transgender

    ASM: you are a nerd

    Python: You are a high school student

    Java: Your brain is so big you can accomplish anything.

    PHP: You could likely do it all in JavaScript

    HTML + CSS: You don’t know programming but still want to look cool. If you need JavaScript you can ask ChatGPT.

    Brainfuck: you like to brag

      Can I be a 1.99x nerd if I missed the bird one? (Swift, from a quick search)

      Am I delusional or am I really that nerdy? Who doesn’t recognise at least one of these?

      I feel like they’re all super common language/frameworks

    What does it say about a person like me who reads all these damn memes even though I don’t know jack shit about programming?

        When I saw this reply in my inbox I honestly had no idea which of my posts it was going to be related to because it could probably apply to most of them.

      I’m like that because:

      • I need a hobby
      • weird history with programming, but never actually liked any programming language enough to have a real project.
      • now I found a niche language* that I like but so far it’s just not where I want get started (one example, still no bindings for Godot 4)
      • Ray almost tricked me into making a framework for a framework but I saw right through that
      • personal issues

    What your favorite programming language says about you:

    JavaScript: Error: “You” is undefined

      It’s worth going hungry in the dark. Lawyer up and hit the gym. JS doesn’t deserve you.

        And a Python developer is born!

        Source: I moved on from an abusive relationship with JavaScript to a healthy not-at-all-controlling equal partner relationship with Python. And four spaces makes perfect sense, once I really considered Python’s point of view…

        I don’t know all of them, but I was talking about React being a framework, not a language.

          Hah, I kinda glossed over that one. Not sure what the downvote is about, it’s a joke. JS and PHP are the two I’m most familiar with and they’re scripting languages, not “proper” programming languages. That doesn’t make them any less serious. Anyway, React, being a library for a scripting language, is two steps removed.

            A scripting language is certainly a programming language. In fact, it can be hard to even draw a line at all. PHP is just-in-time compiled, and has static analysis tools that can catch errors that are normally considered “compile-time” - scripting language or no? Is Typescript compiled? Are JVM bytecode and WASM just very low level scripting languages? Can you write a powerful web application using BASH? What even is Lisp, in this context? “Scripting language” is a poor abstraction, really.

    Look, I was forced to learn R (very badly) for my PhD (which I didn’t complete). So technically I’m not a nerd (it’s sadder than that). Yay!!
