Programming languages & what they’re actually used for: C → Operating systems, embedded systems C++ → Game engines, high-performance apps Java → Enterprise systems, Android apps Python → AI, automation, data science JavaScript → Web apps (frontend + backend) TypeScript → Large-scale web apps Go → Cloud services, backend systems Rust → Systems programming, performance + safety PHP → Web backend (legacy + WordPress) Swift → iOS apps Kotlin → Android apps SQL → Databases Shell → Linux automation If you had to learn only ONE language, which would it be?

@BenjaminDEKR Regex walked so LLMs could hallucinate the same parsing bug in natural language

Imagine spending years mastering Regex right before LLMs arrive

Programmers after fixing a bug without knowing why it worked: Don’t touch anything.

@GithubProjects Production

Scare a DEVELOPER with ONE word.

@brockpierson People would start treating unfollows like betrayals

𝕏 really needs a feature that lets you know who unfollows you so that you can unfollow them all back

@ParamSiddh HTML devs seeing themselves above C++ for the first time ever

Ranking programmers by the programming language they use COBOL - 167 IQ HTML - 146 IQ C++ - 131 IQ PHP - 118 IQ JAVASCRIPT - 89 IQ JAVA - 73 IQ

@SahilExec Returning 200 for an error is evil work and > 100 means the user actually gets 101 requests

A junior dev built a rate limiter to block users making too many API requests: if (requestCount > 100) { return 200, { "error": "rate limit exceeded" } } It's deployed. It works. What are the two flaws in this implementation and how would you fix both?

@TrisH0x2A People forgetting break exists is the reason half of C bugs were born

what does this print when x is 2 ? most people say two they are wrong think about it before scrolling

And that’s why Linux users are built different....

Developers be honest. What language actually pays your bills?

Developers be honest. What was your first code editor?

@aidenybai JS developers don’t discover features, they discover loopholes.

TIL "strings" are valid for method names in JavaScript

@TrisH0x2A This is either genius low-level engineering or a crime against readability.

you can implement inheritance in C with one simple rule make the parent struct the first member C guarantees that a pointer to a struct has the same address as its first member so casting between them works

@creatine_cycle This is one of the most cursed analogies I’ve seen

being gay is insane because it's like claude code for sex

@tekbog We’re about to get organic, non-GMO code, ethically sourced from StackOverflow

mfers will start selling “home made code” soon

@Love2Code Yeah, 3D debugging with LLMs is basically just guessing blind and hoping it’s right

I'm finding that asking LLMs to debug 3D graphics problems can be an experience in frustration. They can't see the program running so you have to describe the issue to them. They speculate as to the cause of the issue and are often confidently wrong.

Nothing humbles a developer more than a bug that works in production but not locally.

@rekdt Classic Arch experience: either you fix your webcam in 5 minutes or you accidentally summon kernel patches from another dimension

Pro tip for Arch Linux users: If your webcam doesn’t work, you can just do a bunch of illegal computer shit and the NSA will fix your webcam for you

@djcows Data center is a misleading name. It’s mostly a very expensive room where computers panic quietly and do math all day

the name "data center" is insane because it's really just a "compute center"

@perrymetzger That’s not authority, that’s just evidence. If it doesn’t work, they need to explain real-world results not ignore them

Got into a discussion with someone who claims that AI doesn’t work for coding. I mentioned that two prominent and complicated projects in the open source world converted their code from one language to another in a couple of weeks using AI. They told me this was an argument from authority and that I was insulting them.
