BASIC (TRS-80 Model I)

1983–1987

Buying games on disk was expensive, typing them in was educational. Decades later, my mother's ploy appears to have paid off.

Commodore BASIC

1984–1988

Colour. Imagine that.

LOGO

1986–1987

Only green?

Javascript

1996–

At first I didn't know better, and got away with more than I deserved. She grew up and turned into something entirely more lovable. We're still close friends.

Pike

1997–2001

Probably my fondest language memory. But not popular enough for my liking in this end of the world.

VisualBasic

1998–2000

I still feel dirty over this. Partly because the customer was the property wing of an oil company. It didn't help that they sprung for hookers.

bash

1998–

Always.

sed

1999–

Just because it's quick and dirty doesn't mean it's not love.

PHP

1999–

Jumped ship from something which had great potential but few possibilities for something with wider horizons, but which turned out deeply schizoid and with lacking coherent identity. Oops.

AWK

2001–

Our relationship is made of many brief and satisfying encounters, with no demands either side.

ActionScript

2008–2009

Had to keep head down and eyes off the awful UI in order to get the job done. Like waking up with a hangover and Javascript's ugly cousin.
