Then I think I should learn Crystal. ;) I’ll gladly program in a language with the same name as myself. Hahah.

Thanks again!

Thanks so much for your insight!

I’m a self-taught programmer as well. Started with the basics way back when like Atari basic, GWbasic, built into Forth of all things, then C++/C#, PHP, JavaScript, etc., then into frameworks like Node, React, Vite , Laravel, CakePHP and stuff.

I followed the Ruby online tutorial. It seems a lot like Zoho’s Deluge, but I heard it isn’t as optimized as Rust, so thank you for talking about Rails :) I’m excited to see what I can build!

Also thanks for the warning about outdated Gems.

I’m learning Ruby on Rails. Would you recommend it as a good website framework? Or something else? I’ve already tried Laravel, CakePHP, Vue/Vite, and making my own from scratch .

Long live Fixedsys! My favourite font since before time.

I found a version with ligatures. Love the thick equally spaced characters. Makes stuff so nice to read.

Ouch… My company speaks French as well. :( I get to hear the buzzwords in English.

My condolences, friend.

I’m glad my company speaks a different language than English, and can’t use all the word soup completely. That said, my company is also wondering why my timesheets never add up to the entire day because always in meetings, scrum, or “can we jump on video chat for a sec because it’s easier to explain vocally than in writing”… And that “sec” turns into a 30 minute tutorial I have to give.

Turtle day? Then give praise to Tortoise SVN!

Thank you for your service in keeping my early programming safe on someone else’s computer!
