I’ve heard of Pythonistas and Rustaceans. What are some of the other names given to devs writing in, for example, PHP or C++. Appreciate any answers - both serious and joking.

psssss: Python
Amazing, thank you for this comprehensive list :)
I definitely associate “ninja” with wannabe JavaScript developers.
Pureblood is pretty funny, though of course we actually use Haskellers. Honorable mention goes to “Haskellnaut” to (playfully) describe taking the language as far as it can go.
I’ve heard COBOL devs being referred to in Polish as “koboliści” (I guess you could translate it as “cobolists”)
Coballers - cobalt
Pascalleros - pascal
Rust: “Rustaceans”
R - pirates
C#itheads - those are the guys that show up to the emulation project I work on insisting we would drastically improve by nuclear rewriting millions of lines of code into c# (or another lamguage occasionaly).
It’s a 20ish yrs old c++ program, we’re never doing it but someone will show up trying to push the topic evert couple of months.
We Clojurists use Clojure / ClojureScript
Java = Javier
It actually isn’t but I think it should be.
