If my search history is any indication, zero.
I'm still chuckling to myself about this. Wish we could give unicorns for comments.
How do you decide whether you know a language? Is it just knowing the syntax, or actively using it, or even being able to use it when called for? 🤔
You feel comfortable writing in it and you able to write idiomatic code
idiomatic* means that the code you wrote is seen as correct way of doing it or more like the "appreciate & preferred" way of writing the code by the overall community of that language.
I like this definition
I am this close to hack NASA with my html skills
you might need to know more than html to do that. lol!
This plus some CSS skills would be quite enough.
hardly, maybe try XSS ;)
HTML+css is turing complete!
if you say so :)
you don't have to take my word for it
I am not, I don't think you can prove it w/0 JS. lol!
Not personally, but this is cool, fuller write-up here.
I think we work on different planes ...
Thx for your CSS links tho!
PowerPoint is also Turing complete
PowerPoint is just a tool! Wrong channel! :)
Doesn't change the fact that it's Turing complete (also a little hint: the html+css dudes are joking, except for the Turing completeness, that's real)
dude, you would not know Turing complete if it hit you on the head ;)
this thread is now Turing complete! lol! Cheers!
XML might do the trick
sure! try it with SOAP! 🤓
Common guys! Its pun intended, some of ya all needs to Google for their sense of humor, you might find it lying around in stakoverflow or GitHub 🤣
I thought I kept it that way, with some sprinkles on top ...
It's amazing what you can do if you remember that "hack" in this day and age also means social engineering.
HTML/CSS is enough to cause some nasty problems if you hook the right people.
Also, don't forget Powerpoint is Turing Complete (youtube.com/watch?v=uNjxe8ShM-8). If you really want to spread lies and/or disrupt the ongoings of a business, that'll do it right there.
Html and css?? for nasa? i use html e css for haking the all world
I'm strongest in C#, PowerShell and JavaScript.
I have a workable skillset in Python and SQL (if you want to consider SQL a language). But I definitely need to Google a lot more.
I used to work in PHP a lot, back in the 4.x/5.x days. So I would consider that knowledge pretty much lost at this point.
We'll call it 3.75 programming languages
ALL OF THEM.
Or at least, some of them + my 7th coffee of the day #yolo.
know? I know nothing haha
I can print out Hello World! to the console with every single programming language ever invented by humanity 😎
Bow to me, you nerds!
How about Assembly, the original language? 😋
Damn it, I'm busted...
Damn you, Ken Bellows! I shall have my revenge!
My first computer (an 1802 processor in a system that was published in Electronics) did a LED sign board controller by hand assembling the code and inserting it into memory using switches! I then thought that punch cards were a step up!
As long as I can bring my IDE about 5. It also depends what count as a programming linguage. If css, xml, yaml etc. count it's a lot more. Without IDE it's pretty hard.
Throughout the years I've used...
BASIC
Turbo Pascal
8086 assembler
SPARC assembler
C
C++
COBOL
Modula-2
Scheme (LISP dialect from MIT)
Smalltalk
VBA
Visual BASIC
C#
Javascript
Java
Typescript
PL/SQL
Transact-SQL
PHP
I could be missing a few.
Of these, I regularly use only C#, Javascript, PHP and Transact-SQL, so at the moment I'd say they're the only ones I "know", as I've forgotten a lot of the others and going back would almost be like learning them again.
What is your favorite?
Hmmm... Overall, probably C# these days though I have fond memories of Turbo Pascal and 8086 assembler. I never did anything that really worked in assembler, but I had a lot of fun playing with it. I learned a lot about the 8086 (a simple processor by today's standards) just by learning the language, and that helped when dealing with low-level stuff in other languages.
Lately I'm mostly dealing with JavaScript (front-end; the back-end is in C# but I haven't touched it in a few weeks) and it's driving me completely crazy. I'm having a lot of fun. :D
We're nearly career twins!
know, or used, or currently using? ...
also, define language. Is Vega a language, or just a json dialect? etc.
Is SVG a language, or just a specialized vocabulary of XML? ...
