I’ve observed a connection between lovers of computer languages, and lovers of human languages.
If you are interested in coding or linguistics, are you interested in both or just one of of the two? If only one interests you, which one and why? If both interest you, do they seem related to one another?
For me it’s both.
Language interest came from hearing my grandparents speak another language as a child, and coding from exploring early windows/dos and seeing what computers could do. Both are fueled by a curiosity and desire to know more so I’d say they’re only loosely connected in that way.
