Don’t worry, you might make it to the start of the bell curve one day.

I’ve been programming for 35 years, and professionally for over 20, so I’m pretty far along the curve, thanks.

We all have different definitions of “fun.” C won’t surprise you when you try to add a string and an array; it’ll do exactly what you told it to do, which then translates to assembly code with a very predictable pattern.

On a different note, bash scripting is well-defined and mostly consists of understanding that common tools can be chained together to provide useful output; combined with the very well-defined string operations, I’ve found that bash scripts can address over 99% of cases people try to throw sed and awk at. It’s almost surprisingly powerful.

JavaScript is just a hot fucking mess.

Except for C
