Any programmers here?

Assembler. Wow. Thought that language was a myth :p
Just like the foundation of a house, plebeian programmers never see the assembly code that their fancy compilers and environments depend on...
 
Embedded C here for just over 18 years. Occasional assembler (mips and arm) mainly for interrupt routines and low level debugging.

When you code throws a processor exception and the debugger stops on a line of assembler you better understand what you are looking at 🤣

Most compilers these days are good enough for you not to need to actually write any assembler but if you are working in true real time embedded systems it helps a lot to understand assembler. Especially when you need to dig into the guts of the RTOS itself.

Hahaha I didn't want to be snobby one - At one stage I could help myself with CMP, JMP & MOV but it was an academic excercise, didn't realise it was used in practice anymore.

Think we should refer to anyone with low level knowledge as "Software Engineers" whilst the rest are just "Script Kiddies".

I have had so many laughs I had to hold in when I tell someone I am a developer, and they say they are too. So I ask, what languages do you use, and the reply is : "HTML and CSS"

That will teach you to mix with developers - they tend to be toxic...

C# and ES6 here (right now), all sorts of other stuff over the last 25 years.
 
I'm currently trying to start up version 2 of my company after parting ways with my business partner and selling him my share of the business.

I am doing some contract work and looking for new customers. Let's see how 2018 goes!

What type of business is it for interest sake?
 
I'm also a web Dev, mostly C# but i do some frontend work when I have to. Does anyone know a good place to pickup small freelance jobs?
 
Maybe i should drop this here :p our team needs devs. So if you guys are in pta and want a move that has awesome tech and lekker people and good money, then let me know
 
Mobile devs?

I could find out. There is a division that does android dev. I'll let you know. My team is C#, angular, vue js, MVC, postgres, microservices (docker, etc), kubernetes, ... that kind of thing

I've battled to find small projects... These days there are people who have some stock projects they've already made money on so they'll sell something that is 100 hours worth of work for R5k... And guys pumping out cheapass online shopping cart type things for R799.

Then I find possible clients and spend weeks or even months engaging with them, gathering requirements, drawing up proposals and documents and they either mess me around or just stop communicating. Or I end up at a biggish client and engage and everyone that is going to be using the software/system is so frustrated by their existing system/process and super excited about the proposed solution... but then suddenly the brakes come on... and I'm not even quoting huge figures.

Perhaps I'm underquoting by too much, since I'm a one man show now.

Nah it's cool, I was just curious. :)

I've developed in a bunch of languages but I can't really call myself a programmer because most software development bores me. Only coding I do now is Unity's subset of C#. Still managed to create a web service and handle consistent interaction from Unity software, but I much prefer the actual game development side.
 
Python, Nodejs(JavaScript, apparently that needs to be specific these days haha), C#, Java, PHP, GO, Dart

Main Langauge I work with everyday are Python and JS.

Definitely some interesting times for development at the moment!
 
sql language dev is scripting, but still counts for your cv
 
C#, MSSQL, Typescript, Powershell (for Azure), GDScript, Python, Unreal Engine!

Edit: I realise Unreal Engine is a game engine and not a language, but it counts right :p
Been working in it for like 3 years. If you lot are interested in game engines check out Godot. Mighty fine.

Godot is perfect for those Friday nights where you drank too much and the ambition is strong... 5 hours later and you have something playable.
 
Good ol' C, Python, SQLite. Lots of Bash scripting and messing with Linux. Also work on some stuff in Qt that is technically C++, but the lack of OOP on that project makes it feel more like C being forced to compile as C++.

I've been wanting to get in the C#, Java, PHP game lately though. Seems like there's more potential than the almost-embedded stuff I work on and would love a more flexible and ambitious work environment
 
Java/c#/Javascript-Typescript/SQL/python/ruby/c/c++/PHP... And some more over the years. Continuously evolving, tho in my experience frameworks is where it's at. Learning a new language usually fairly easy, mastering the frameworks now there the true time consumer.
 
C#/.NET MVC,Web API/SQL/JavaScript/D3/jQuery/Angular/Bootstrap/CSS/GoogleMaps

currently working on a .NET MVC project that is using angular... not by choice. I do not recommend it.
 
C++, and then a bit of Java, VB, JS, jQuery, CSS/HTML, PHP, SQL. (Built simple CRM's before too since I see some people mentioning it)
Also cool with designing on photoshop etc :)
And electronics i.e Arduino/RPi and general circuitry
And 3D design and printing :D
