Just read these all in Rodney Dangerfield's voice, delightful.
- sbierwagen 15y agoI tell ya, my programming language don't get no respect at all. I was telling my coworker about the library I was writing in my 10% time, and he asked if it was used for steering a turtle! No respect at all... Our meetups don't get a lot of traffic either. Last time only one guy showed up, and he was in the wrong room! Turned out he was looking for the cooler, more hip meetup across the hall-- it was for Ada! No respect at all... I told my boss he should give me a raise, that developers for my language were in big demand. He said from who, Fischer-Price? I tell him no, that Facebook was looking for guys like me, and he said that would only be happening if they're looking for a guy to rewrite existing code into a language used more widely and was more corporate friendly-- like EmacsLisp!
