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?
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

You’re a geek.
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.
What your favorite programming language says about you:
JavaScript: Error: “You” is undefined
Not all of these are programming languages btw
You’re a nerd for knowing that.
You’re a nerd for calling them out about it.
Scripting languages are for popular kids and jocks.
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.
Anyone who says Matlab is their favorite programming language is very misguided
I’m a pirate. Arrrrr
My relationship with JavaScript is more like an abusive relationship that I can’t escape from because it pays all the bills.
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…
You just described my life. JS is hell.
MATLAB is such a scam. Luckily a growing amount of universities are starting to realise it.
“You are an engineer and a nerd”
We call them “enginerds”, thank you very much.
What language is that one?
Ah yes, React my favorite programming language.
What about PowerShell?
My favorite programming language is VBA
Legit tho you can do crazy shit with VBA. Excel is not sandboxed.
Have you ever been to PowerShell Summit? It’s the only nerd conference I’ve ever attended where only about half the attendees actually realized they are nerds at a nerd conference. I love the vibe. It’s got style and pizzazz.
That said, the added entry for PowerShell would still be: “You are a nerd.”
No, but now that’s absolutely on my radar, lol.
And yes! Woohoo!
Lost and confused nerd.
What You’re acc to your fav language
Parse error in
/usr/lib/dict/en_all.hIf you recognize them all, you’re a double nerd
I am not a nerd, I am actually a gigachad. Selfie
This interface is bloated
How did you take a selfie with your feet? Impressive.
Mine is “nobody cares about camels anymore”
Is that an OCaml reference/joke?
Perl. But OCaml works too, I guess.
tbf perl nerds still are some of the nerdiest of nerds
Oh, Camels…
We’re old nerds.
You are a nerd and your back hurts
Omg, it’s scary how accurate this is!
I am a nerd!
