Re: It bears repeating: Building a CPU that runs C fast considered harmful.
Some real engineers* still use FORTRAN too. I have to use a "FORTRAN-like" language for some thermal modelling every now and then, but I'd far rather be using Python.
Congrats, A/C on replying to dismiss assertion of Real programmers with Real Work to do use FORTRAN - really wasn't necessary, it's an old joke.
Clearly being a Rocket (or at least Aerospace) Engineer isn't necessary for some tasks after all, that actually makes me feel better about my job.
