I am in fact an engineer and a nerd. Or as many of us like to call it, an enginerd

Edit: I wouldn't call Matlab my favorite though... But yes I use it. I mean, I'm on Lemmy... Like loads of users here, I like FOSS. So I'd say python is probably my favorite

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

Can't confirm, I'm old and a nerd and I love C++

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.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

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.

  • Java: you are in corporate IT
  • JS: you like surface things more than efficiency
  • Ruby: you are a gamer/modder/plugin maker
