We can just remove the HTML5 entry all together.
Nope, JS is “You think you are nerd”.
Also, why React is there? It’s a lib not a language
This guy right here is a certified nerd
This guy right here is a certified nerd certifier
I didn't certify that nerd certifier though.
You want to be looking for some other nerd certifier certifier for that.

Fortran has a logo now?
It's just an f in serif
A real nerd would know that React is a library and HTML is a markup language, and neither are programming languages.
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.
rust: you're about to get a blahaj and a tiny blue pill.
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

if you have a favorite language that isn't on this, you're a super nerd.

matlab is nobody's favourite language. although using it does require an engineering degree, which makes you a nerd.

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
A scripting language is a type of programming language...
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.
There's nothing stopping anyone from writing a C interpreter
Except god, hopefully

COBOL: You’re a fucking dinosaur
where is Dart :(
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.
Yeah holy shit. When I was starting out and tagged along a senior on a trip he literally hauled a big backpack of spirits with him.
Got out of that industry after a few years when I realized why every senior was drinking. The money was just not worth it for me.
As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

I didn't knew that (1) Fortran has such logo and (2) I am old. Shit
Happy to see Julia on the list.
Apparently I am a nerd. I accept that.
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.

F in the chat for Fortran programmers.
My dad first learned to Code in Pascal. Where would he fall?
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.
I still do.
I wish they'd open source Delphi (and most of the libraries). Might actually breathe some life back into it.
