I use R for all sorts of bioinformatics shenanigens, and I remind myself daily I am not a nerd. Even my rows of warhammer books, minis and Corvus Corax poster confirm to me I am not a nerd..... The Emperor Protects....my code

Please, direct your hatred for R here:

Why hate? It allows for easy functional programming with vectorized operations that bind to C for efficiency.

I don’t think I like any of them. This is just a job to me.

Just saw react in the “language” list and now I’m definitely a nerd.

My dad first learned to Code in Pascal. Where would he fall?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I still do.

I wish they'd open source Delphi (and most of the libraries). Might actually breathe some life back into it.

We nagged our highschool around 97-98 until we got a programming course, we wanted c++ but the IT guy thought c++ would just be a fad, so we learned turbopascal.

No Gleam either. That's one I'm wanting to try out.

Which one of these symbols is Bash? If none, does that mean I'm not a nerd?

I used to be very opinionated about programming languages but now I just really love all of them.

Sure some might not be the best tool for some jobs but maintaining a language is insane and just such a mind-blowing endevour.
