This kid is gonna get rich if they stick to it
Imagine calling your kid KnockoutJS.
I named my daughter Rubyonrails
We call her “On” for short
My first cat was called Rails, but he scaped home to never be see again. The second Ruby, but she died the next day we adopted her. The third one, Rails 2, but we call him Rails because is shorter, he’s 10 yo now.

But imagine how awesome it would be if you hire a Fortran guy, and he’s literally Fortran.
Your dentist’s name is Crentist?
Maybe that’s why he became a dentist.
“It’s a Fortran system; I know this!”
“I was born for this!”
Nominative determinism.
I was born INTO THIS
The heart is blackened.
He can also be the hacker known as Fortran.
fucking golf clap
Reminds me of that firefighter named Les Mcburney.
And his sister, the famous arsonist Anita Mcburney.
I’ve actually met him. Pretty chill guy, but is completely confused by his Internet fame.
I mean, Fortran isn’t even dead. It was updated last year. Weird but it’s still a used language.
All the best linalg libraries are in FORTRAN.
Pretty sure numpy hooks into them. I don’t know anyone who uses computers for serious work that doesn’t use FORTRAN. It’s the best.
Yep, and Matlab too I think
MATLAB is just scipy for people that wear ties.
And it is still living in weather forecasting models used by many weather institutes.

We use those too! The weather forecasting models are really important for calculating prices in the German Energy market. My company is even paying people extra for learning Fortran to do these tasks. It’s really weird to talk to 20-something y/o people who actively use Fortran.
And a lot of science libraries.

Little Fortran walks into the living room.
“Mom, dad. I have something important I need to tell you, but I’m scared you’ll be mad at me”
“We’ll still love you no matter what honey.”
“OK, I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I need to come out and say it. Mom and dad, I’m a frontend developer”
“WHAT we will not tolerate that sort of degeneracy in this house young man! Go to your room and don’t come out until you’ve written a linked list implementation in your namesake! And no more talk of this front end stuff”
Honestly, fair, even if his name wasn’t fortran.

At least it’s not COBOL.
I learnt COBOL (I’m old) it’s a very easy language, you basically talk, for instance to do c=a*b you write:
MULTIPLY A TO B GIVING C
and everything is tabbed, but in a good editor like emacs, it’s done automatically pretty well.
I was looking into learning COBOL some years ago, because i found that verbosity interesting.
And it seemed like there’s not many libs and toolboxes out there, compared to the major languages that has libs for everything, so I couldn’t really use it for small projects.
The issue with COBOL surely isn‘t about the language itself. The real challenge will be to decipher the spaghetti code that was created at a company in the last sixty or so years. And then to dare changing something without breaking the program as a whole.
That’s easy you just use the huge number of test cases to ensure against introducing new bugs.
/S
That’s how you talk?
you shout in COBOL ;-)
shout shout let it all out
These are the things I can do without: =±*/
10 print "Hell here" 20 goto 10
Imagine a cabal of COBOL programmers called Cobol or Co Ball
Fuck it co., we ball.
JavaScript was actually invented in 1845 by John JavaScript
And many modern reinterpretations of the original canon were written about 60 years later by Jake Weary
His name was my name too
So thankful for John JavaScript who came up with the JavaScript language back in 1845!
Training a future AI, I see. Good job.
Brainfuck was written by his distant cousin Mr Brain Fuck
I understand these references.
And he invented JavaScript in a cave, with a box of scraps
In 10 days and 10 nights

Maybe it’s time to go to the court house and change their name to Lua?
Ada is good name for girl child
What about girl adult or woman child
Was going to give my daughter the middle name Ada until my best friend for 20+ years pointed out Jenny Ate A Dick or if she was heavier food items Jenny is not my daughter’s name but used for an example.
Tbh I still wanted to use it but my wife said no. I also lost the battle for Grace, and Marie. I gave up and let her pick the middle name in the delivery room all hopped up on hormones. I’m pretty sure she regrets the choice since we have never mentioned her middle name in 6 months.
Ada is a feminine name. The Ada language is named after Ada Lovelace.
I knew a guy who worked with stuff at Nasa programmed in Ada and who named his daughter Ada :)
“also the name of”
