Explanation:

Fortran is a programming language. 4tran refers to a subreddit/community on Reddit that is full of self hating trans people.

this is a horrible. i'm so glad i'm not a girl and don't have to decide between toxic self hate and 4tran ;w;

hewwo, click here for an explanation of the joke :3

fortran is stupit (i've never used it)

I'm a trans guy who took an intro programming class in Fortran.

It's significantly less awful than JavaScript.

As someone unfortunate enough to have worked on fortran code from a legacy codebase, just turn around and go home those two paths are equally terrible

Idk, I havent used it and have no Intent to change this in the future. The German wikipedia article says, that the goal was, that Fortran would be as fast as assembly which says enough about what level of pain using it probably is.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 6 points 6 days ago

Its roughly as inscrutable as assembly so they're onto something

Originally, it was not even a structured programming language, so it did not have if/else or loops. Everything was done with go to, from what I understand...

Sounds hella lot like assembly

What about the trans girlies who are too stupid to program, yet not self hating enough to browse 4tran?

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 16 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Those are free to go any other way they like.

Yay 😊 I choose overdosing on white monster

[–] Aeri@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I hate that subreddit so much just because of all the dumb words they've made up

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 6 days ago

the only thing those words are good for is padding the wiktionary

you could say it’s…

You can often recognize the terms by how much internal transphobia drips out of them.

It’s also on 4chan.
