Programmer Humor

There's nothing left from Russia anymore.

Surprised nobody has complained so far about the Rust comparison. I guess any objection would appear to prove the point, or at least reinforce the "evangelist" stereotype.

Assembly is Turk, started everything.

RustyRooster: C is the root of all modern languages

FORTRAN: Am I a joke to you?

This is great.

If I could make one change, there's so many funnier languages that could have been Esperanto. I would have taken a shameless jab at F#, myself.

Literally all of these languages are rooted in English.

C: printf()

C++: cout

JavaScript: document.write() or window.print()

Java: system.out.println()

Python: print()

Rust: print()

Exactly zero of those reference a language other than English. I'm not even a linguist and this is just silly. It's literally part of why English is becoming the dominant world language, because if you learn computer programming you basically have to learn English.

I write several flavours of BASIC fluently, Fortran and Pascal passably, three forms of assembler well enough to get by, and I've worked in COBOL.
