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.

I might be a nerd...

Which one of these symbols is Bash? If none, does that mean I'm not a nerd?

Haha elixir is too obscure to be a nerd just us cool guys putting the fun in function

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

No Gleam either. That's one I'm wanting to try out.

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.

My dad first learned to Code in Pascal. Where would he fall?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 3 points 10 months ago

I still do.

I wish they'd open source Delphi (and most of the libraries). Might actually breathe some life back into it.

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 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.

Can't confirm, I'm old and a nerd and I love C++
