Nope, JS is “You think you are nerd”.
Also, why React is there? It’s a lib not a language

definitely a nerd's nerd.
Come on y’all, would you lay off the gatekeeping. Some of us still think the free web’s a good thing, lest we all end up in a walled garden hellscape. JavaScript is therefore needed if we’re being pragmatic. Just transpile it from TypeScript if you’re ~~too stuck up for dynamic languages~~ building something big.
Ah, yes. My favourite programming language (checks notes) HTML...
If your favourite programming language is HTML, we do not grant you the title of Nerd.
A real nerd would know that React is a library and HTML is a markup language, and neither are programming languages.
matlab is nobody's favourite language. although using it does require an engineering degree, which makes you a nerd.
Or a physics student who wants to cry. cue thousand yard stare to freshman year in college.
Most of these are scripting languages. Some are even markup languages. It's like the meme creator didn't even know what a programming language was.
I hope someone got fired for that blunder
What your comment says about you:
You are a nerd
What's the difference between a scripting language and a programming language?
Some people think that only compiled languages are true programming languages. (Needless to say, they're wrong.)
Needless to say, they're wrong.
Not least because there's no such thing as a "compiled" or "interpreted" language.
Which is to say that it's a property of the tooling rather than the language itself. There's nothing stopping anyone from writing a C interpreter or a Python compiler.

Except god, hopefully
Yeah, once you know all the details, the distinction disappears. The term doesn't clarify understanding.
If I had to make a distinction, it'd be that scripting languages are meant to be a simple way to serve a specific niche. Things like SQL or Excel formulas. It doesn't apply to Python.
Do you know what community you're in? Do you want to start a war?
There is no clear definition because there is a lot of overlap, especially when you get into the details, but:
Scripting languages are often considered to be very high level and can commonly run without compilation. Making them great to automate tasks or create a simplified interaction/abstraction layer to a more complex program.
Programming languages usually have much lower level access, and by extension they tend to be more complicated. In exchange for that, you get much more control. Although the access varies from Assembly to languages a C programmer would consider "scripting".
Although for every example, there is basically a counter example. Because programmers being who they are, see it as a challenge to do something with a language that others consider impossible or wrong.
For example, there are things like NodeOS, a "Lightweight operating system using Node.js as userspace."

No way this exists.
Wtf, it exists. Why would anyone do that to the world?
A scripting language is a type of programming language...
Neeeeerd!
I think simply knowing what the "F" is means you're old and a nerd.
It's still commonly used in STEM fields.
I have to take a breath whenever I find an F77 file. Prepare for a lack of objects!
I am old and a nerd and I don’t see Perl on here.
Wait… is it the tiny camel at the bottom?
Yep. It has no logo of its own, so it sometimes gets identified by the animal on the O'Reilly book
No Haskell so I'm not a nerd 😎. Though from the languages I use the most (Java & Python) and other languages I enjoy (Rust, Julia) I can infer that I'm probably a bit of a nerd.
if you have a favorite language that isn't on this, you're a super nerd.
I didn't knew that (1) Fortran has such logo and (2) I am old. Shit
F in the chat for Fortran programmers.
COBOL: You’re a fucking dinosaur
No QBASIC, can not confirm.
Bottom right should be "You're a nerd and getting old".
Source: I was dicking around with mod_perl yesterday.
As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.
Matlab sucks ass no real engineers use it, only college kids.
I've had more than one job where Matlab was used extensively, guess my coworkers and I aren't real engineers.
I'd rather use something else, but if it's what the group already uses, fine, I'll do it
Also, I don't do a ton of true programming on it. It's a fancy calculator, and occasionally I make a GUI app with it
laughs in PLC
Ah, alcoholic then
Thankfully I suck at that, but holy crap it is prevelent in this industry. The alcohol abuse is cray. Doesn't help when you travel constantly. I don't travel much anymore, but the people who spend 90+% of the year in the field, while having a family, are fundamentally broken. Fun to party once in a while, but when they do this shit multiple times a week, I don't understand.
Couldn't agree more. Field service is one hell of a drug. Money's good, variety is fun, the chaos and travel are fun too, and you learn a lot quickly. The latter often because some or all of the mfg. plant you're visiting needs you to fix your stuff so they can run, and no one is coming to BFE to help you, lol.
But that all wears off, in time, and it starts to take a huge toll like you described. Never met a long term field service engineer with a healthy home life, or with their health in general. I got out because both of mine were crumbling, for real.
Right hand to baby Jesus, I thought Kmart was basically no longer in operation, when did it become a programming language for nerds?
We can just remove the HTML5 entry all together.
Fixed! "Fotran: You are ~~old~~ dead and a nerd"
Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
