Laughs in perl
TMTOWTDI.
Nerd.
Perl should say: You are old and a nerd or you use Debian
Javascript should say “you are a masochist and a nerd”
Who thought of that and how have they managed to sustain their core bodily functions this long?
Probably this guy
with his therapist 🤣
I take it that he dictated the book to his therapist from a state of paralysis.
That should be a dog fucking a football.
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.
Lisp gang rise up! uses inhaler
As a haskell nerd, I feel that I have the moral authority to declare you king of the nerds.
“Ha! You think your language has macros? You call that a macro?! This list processing code is a list of tokens, why wouldn’t it be able to edit itself?”
It breaks my brain.
When they said, “Don’t write self modifying code”, they obviously didn’t mean me! /s
Is haskell still alive?
Absolutely. It’s just that less fuss is being made about it on hacker news because the cool kids say you’ll be a better programmer in other languages if you learn rust when they used to say that you’ll be a better programmer in other languages if you learn haskell.
With stack (consistent package version snapshot database based project starter and build tool) instead of cabal, you get the transferable and repeatable build benefits of docker with none of the hassle. Just
stack newat the start andstack buildorstack replduring development. Nothing gets bitrotten any more.Nah, I am not talking about hackernews buzz. I just thought it is dying couple of years ago.
What is HTML doing here? Blasphemy!
…but some nerds are more equal than others.
TIL fortran has a logo
This chart knows me.
Aww I guess i’m fine since i mainly write in BBC BASIC SDL lol
Have you come to 2025 in a time machine? Can I borrow it?
Sorry I’m using it at the moment doing research for a Roman trading game I’m writing in BASIC.
Well, if Romans will perchance feed you to the lions… we won’t be sad.
Neeerd
how dare you Im not an engineer
What language is that engineer and a nerd one?
Matlab.
How is your favourite language one that indexes arrays from 1??? You monster!
How dare you count things from one, like a human being.
I beg to disagree. It’s a law of nature to assign index 0 to the 1st th… Wait a moment
Where holyC
You are a christian nerd
This is deep.
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.
Super nerd
Turbo Nerd
Nerd.
Fair.
Therefore I can conclude I am not a nerd
I don’t think that’s how it works.
Same here.
VHDL represent. Although it’s arguably not a “programming language”
You work at IBM or something? Who even still uses VHDL?
A ton of people. Anything aerospace, DoD, Space, or critical infrastructure. All those industries have to use VHDL to support legacy products from the 80s and 90s. At that point everyone is like, “Sure its 2025, by why switch to SystemVerilog? We already know VHDL.” and thus you got a whole army of engineers making next gen satellites, augmented reality headsets, etc. …… in VHDL 93.
Is it such a hassle learning verilog if you know vhdl or vice versa?
Not really, HDL is HDL. At the end of the day, as long as you know what you want to do electrically then everything else is an exercise of translating that desire into VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog. The only real hassle is creating test-benches and verification simulations. But at that point it’s discretionary towards the designer. A lot of tools coming from Intel, Xilinx, and Synopsys allow you to “black box” components. So a module written in VHDL can be incorporated into a design or test bench written in verilog and vis-versa. IMHO VHDL is still dominant because grey beard chief engineers throw a little hissy fit at design reviews when they learn the junior engineers did everything in verilog.
I do mostly c/c++ for an embedded product, but one of the modules in the system uses an FPGA programmed w/ VHDL. So I’ve gotten to do a few deep dives into that code in the past couple years.
It’s been decades since I’ve had to write new VHDL or Verilog though.
Lol, so much of the FPGA industry 🤣. Especially East coast of the US
you get out of here with your hardware descriptions!
As a ruby guy, I’m just happy to be included.
