@kerrick@dotnet.social And that should be Objective-C, ugly but pragmatic.

@kerrick@dotnet.social Do your languages learned school count? I had: - Qbasic * - Turing * - Pascal * - C ** - Scheme ** - Java ** To end up with #JavaScript & #PHP for my career. 🤩 * = highschool ** = university

@kerrick@dotnet.social My first three languages were QBasic, C, and Tcl. 😂 But my fourth was Java, which I do indeed use in production. 👍

@kerrick@dotnet.social Not sure I'd lead with Lua but I agree on Clojure and Smalltalk. I think APL and Prolog are important. Disclaimer: I'm lucky that Clojure is my production language.

@kerrick@dotnet.social 😄 - Forth - Logo (Lisp!?) - 6502 Assembly Then I learned Pascal and Basic... Dijkstra's "mutilated" quip comes mind 🤣
