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?
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.
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

What your favorite programming language says about you:
JavaScript: Error: “You” is undefined
My relationship with JavaScript is more like an abusive relationship that I can’t escape from because it pays all the bills.
You just described my life. JS is hell.
You guys are using typescript right? … right?
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…
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.
What You’re acc to your fav language
Parse error in
/usr/lib/dict/en_all.hAnyone who says Matlab is their favorite programming language is very misguided
“You are an engineer and a nerd”
We call them “enginerds”, thank you very much.
What language is that one?
What about PowerShell?
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!
My favorite programming language is VBA
Legit tho you can do crazy shit with VBA. Excel is not sandboxed.
Lost and confused nerd.
No kotlin eh?
I can help with that one
“You are a nerd”
I don’t have a favorite language, I just hate haskell less than all the other languages I have tried.
Do you get a heart attack every time you need to write to a database, effectively causing a side-effect? Only real Haskell developers do.
Dude, I have a heart attack when I lift a finger, causing a side effect to the keyboard.
In fact, I have a heart attack whenever my heart starts beating, causing a side effect in my veins.
Damn, this guy Haskells.
Haskellers Haskell their way through Haskell. Simple.
If you recognize them all, you’re a double nerd
Why are we all accumulators?
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.
Ah yes, React my favorite programming language.
Mine is “nobody cares about camels anymore”
Is that an OCaml reference/joke?
Perl. But OCaml works too, I guess.
We’re old nerds.
You are a nerd and your back hurts
tbf perl nerds still are some of the nerdiest of nerds
Oh, Camels…
