Assigned System/370 Operator At Birth
This kid’s full name is Fortran Sucksdontlearnit Johnson. His parents actually hated Fortran. Imagine the disappointment they’re about to experience.
I mean, Fortran isn’t even dead. It was updated last year. Weird but it’s still a used language.
And it is still living in weather forecasting models used by many weather institutes.
Source: Work for a weather institute.
And a lot of science libraries.
Source: married to a physicist.
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.
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.
parents are Mr and Mrs C. and C. Plusplus
Neither of them are very sharp
and we dont talk about their half cousin Objective
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.
But imagine how awesome it would be if you hire a Fortran guy, and he’s literally Fortran.
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.
He can also be the hacker known as Fortran.
fucking golf clap
“It’s a Fortran system; I know this!”
Your dentist’s name is Crentist?
Maybe that’s why he became a dentist.
“I was born for this!”
I was born INTO THIS
The heart is blackened.
Nominative determinism.
My parents called me Basic.
You’re the APL of their eyes
Ooh that’s a good one
Ada is good name for girl 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.
I knew a guy who worked with stuff at Nasa programmed in Ada and who named his daughter Ada :)
Ada is a feminine name. The Ada language is named after Ada Lovelace.
What about girl adult or woman child
“also the name of”
JavaScript was actually invented in 1845 by John JavaScript
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 many modern reinterpretations of the original canon were written about 60 years later by Jake Weary
And he invented JavaScript in a cave, with a box of scraps
My son is also named Fortran.
We need more “Fortran” license plates in the gift shop.
“We’re out of BORT license plates!”
Famous as AMOS
Land’s Raider
Imagine calling your kid KnockoutJS.
