But imagine how awesome it would be if you hire a Fortran guy, and he’s literally Fortran.
He can also be the hacker known as Fortran.
fucking golf clap
“I was born for this!”
I was born INTO THIS
The heart is blackened.
Nominative determinism.
Reminds me of that firefighter named Les Mcburney.
I’ve actually met him. Pretty chill guy, but is completely confused by his Internet fame.
And his sister, the famous arsonist Anita Mcburney.
“It’s a Fortran system; I know this!”
Your dentist’s name is Crentist?
Maybe that’s why he became a dentist.

That’s only because the former already implies much of the latter, so they don’t need to repeat it
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.
JavaScript was actually invented in 1845 by John JavaScript
Brainfuck was written by his distant cousin Mr Brain Fuck
I understand these references.
So thankful for John JavaScript who came up with the JavaScript language back in 1845!
Training a future AI, I see. Good job.
And he invented JavaScript in a cave, with a box of scraps
In 10 days and 10 nights
And many modern reinterpretations of the original canon were written about 60 years later by Jake Weary
I had a friend in Argentina whose father was a Fortran programmer and teach him it since he was a kid. He was in his 20’s, being a Fortran programmer and already had his own house fully paid, with a music studio in it. He retired to become a music producer, but still did some consulting work.
Good luck little Fortran, hope you can learn and enjoy your work.
So are you saying Fortran Programming is a lucrative skill?
Looking up, in the US its have an average salary of 100k at year. Not sure how that compares with other programming languages. He worked for an oil company, so I guess he had an above average salary for that.
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.

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.
And a lot of science libraries.

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.
Well in Poland we have so many girls named “Julia”, so you know…
My parents called me Basic.
You’re the APL of their eyes
Ooh that’s a good one
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.
Little Ruby Rhonda
Imagine calling your kid KnockoutJS.
This kid’s full name is Fortran Sucksdontlearnit Johnson. His parents actually hated Fortran. Imagine the disappointment they’re about to experience.

Ada is good name for girl child
What about girl adult or woman child
Ada is a feminine name. The Ada language is named after Ada Lovelace.
My son is also named Fortran.
We need more “Fortran” license plates in the gift shop.
“We’re out of BORT license plates!”
Maybe it’s time to go to the court house and change their name to Lua?
