As a ruby guy, I'm just happy to be included.

[–] epicstove@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago

If you're programming in assembly, regardless of what it is, you are the biggest nerd of them all. And I have massive fucking respect for you.

Wow I'm an old engineer nerd. I feel so exposed. Zero is nothing always start at one for life.

How is your favourite language one that indexes arrays from 1??? You monster!

[–] oyo@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

How dare you count things from one, like a human being.

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 1 points 1 hour ago

I beg to disagree. It's a law of nature to assign index 0 to the 1^st^ th... Wait a moment

What language is that engineer and a nerd one?

[–] SandroHc@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago

Matlab.

I am not in this chart because my favourite programming languages are too nerdy for the cool programming nerds to include in their nerd chart.

[–] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Therefore I can conclude I am not a nerd

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I don't think that's how it works.

Javascript should say "you are a masochist and a nerd"

Trying to rewrite everything in the universe

[–] darvit@lemmy.darvit.nl 5 points 19 hours ago

It's a shame that the Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils was named uutils and not uwutils.

R

We can reject the null hypothesis that you are not a nerd at significance $\alpha < 0.001$.

oh wait, shit let me run that again, my data frame is full of NA somehow, again.

[–] TimeSquirrel@kbin.melroy.org 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Cobol: you are old, and a nerd, and probably making some sweet cheddar right now propping up a mid to late 20th century beast somewhere.

Assembly: you are a cyborg.
