i’m ready for a perl renaissance
It’s the Swiss Army CHAINSAW!
As a Perl developer: not going to happen.
I’m sorry.
Eh, it’s a language that rewards deep knowledge. I like that. But it’s not coming back.
Man, I am learning Perl and that comment was discouraging for me :(
There will likely always be a job for someone who has good Perl knowledge. There’s no good reason to start a new project in it, though.
You know what, if I have a boy one day, I’ll name him Pascal. Hopefully, he won’t develop a lisp
Or a stupid wager.
Imagine calling your kid KnockoutJS.
Well in Poland we have so many girls named “Julia”, so you know…
My son is also named Fortran.
We need more “Fortran” license plates in the gift shop.
“We’re out of BORT license plates!”
When I named my children I made sure to choose names that can always be found in kitschy gift shop items.
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.
This kid is gonna get rich if they stick to it

I named my daughter Rubyonrails
We call her “On” for short
My first cat was called Rails, but he scaped home to never be see again. The second Ruby, but she died the next day we adopted her. The third one, Rails 2, but we call him Rails because is shorter, he’s 10 yo now.

This kid’s full name is Fortran Sucksdontlearnit Johnson. His parents actually hated Fortran. Imagine the disappointment they’re about to experience.
parents are Mr and Mrs C. and C. Plusplus
Neither of them are very sharp
and we dont talk about their half cousin Objective
Assigned System/370 Operator At Birth
My parents called me Basic.
You’re the APL of their eyes
Ooh that’s a good one
Maybe it’s time to go to the court house and change their name to Lua?
