HTML 5 isn’t a programming language! (Yes, I’m a nerd)
What if you don’t have a favorite programming language? I’m a firm believer that each language offers a specific set a features that makes each one uniquely suck and I often find myself at the crossroads of continuing to use this garbage or to learn a new language only to find it sucks in a different way. (/s another way of saying each language has its niche… (but sucks outside of it))
It’s like how some infinite are greater / less than others, sure you might say that each one uniquely sucks, but spend a month trying to build something with say, Salesforce’s language, and you’ll come to appreciate how there are still tiers to it… much, much lower tiers.
Not Verilog though. That shit is for jocks.
I got swirlied by an FPGA
How dare you. I’m a physicist, not an engineer.
Yeah, I associate Matlab with my physicist friends, my engineers friends either dont program, or already became software developers.
Is this a safe space to say that my favorite programming language rn is Python?
Its okay. I’m sure you’ll get over it.
Technically, half of those are scripting languages not programming languages.
Anyway my favourite is Bash because I’m weird, even for a nerd.
how is a script not a program??
I always thought that programs had to be compiled to be classed as programs.
Nerds like to push this narrative
That’s just the difference between compiled and interpreted.
Interpreted programs such as web apps can very much be programs, after all.
Interpreted languages have classically been called scripting languages, it’s pedantic but it has use and meaning in the industry.
There is no purpose to mislabeling something and speaking inaccurately in a professional setting.
Pedantic correct. The best type of correct.
No, it’s not. It’s objectively inaccurate.
A computer does not care whether the instructions it’s executing were compiled ahead of time or interpreted on the fly and they literally never have.
