    Code Languages — from Pascal to Move

    Computers don't just speak 1s and 0s. Like humans speak Slovenian, English, German, Spanish — machines speak C, Rust, Move, Solidity. Each language has a voice, a purpose, a tribe.

    Two worlds, one idea: language is bridge

    Ich bin Miha. Una cerveza fría, por favor. Hello. Živjo. Each tongue opens a door to a people. The same is true here — learn one code language well and the next ten come faster.

    Miha's path

    Pascal → C → C++ → Java. The classic 90s/2000s programmer journey. Today's LOVE Coin runs on TypeScript + React + Rust (Soroban). Tomorrow we add Move (Sui).

    Systems — close to the metal

    OS kernels, drivers, embedded, game engines. Manual memory or strict ownership.

    C

    Miha used
    1972

    The mother tongue. Unix, Linux, almost every other language is implemented in C.

    C++

    Miha used
    1985

    C with objects + templates. Game engines (Unreal), Chrome, finance HFT.

    Rust

    2010

    Memory-safe systems language. No GC, no null. Powers Solana, Polkadot, Soroban.

    Zig

    2016

    "C done right." Simple, explicit, fast compiler. Bun runtime is written in Zig.

    Object-oriented classics

    Enterprise backends, Android, business apps. Run on virtual machines (JVM, CLR).

    Pascal

    Miha used
    1970

    Wirth's teaching language. Where Miha started — Delphi, Turbo Pascal in school.

    Java

    Miha used
    1995

    "Write once, run anywhere." Banks, Android, Minecraft.

    C#

    2000

    Microsoft's answer to Java. Unity games, .NET backends.

    Kotlin

    2011

    Modern JVM. Official language of Android. Concise and null-safe.

    Swift

    2014

    Apple's language for iOS, macOS, watchOS.

    Scripting & the web

    Glue languages. Fast to write, read by humans first. The whole modern web stack.

    Python

    1991

    AI, data science, scripting, FastAPI backends. The most-taught language in the world.

    JavaScript

    1995

    The only language native to the browser. Now runs servers (Node, Bun, Deno) too.

    TypeScript

    2012

    JavaScript + static types. What LOVE Coin is written in. React + Vite + TS = our stack.

    Ruby

    1995

    Optimized for programmer happiness. Rails powers GitHub, Shopify.

    PHP

    1995

    ~75% of websites still serve PHP (WordPress, Laravel).

    Functional — math as code

    Immutable data, pure functions. Used in finance, telecom, distributed systems.

    Lisp

    1958

    Second-oldest language. Code is data. Emacs runs on it.

    Haskell

    1990

    Pure functional, lazy evaluation. The academic gold standard.

    Erlang / Elixir

    1986 / 2011

    Built for telecom. Powers WhatsApp, Discord. Insane uptime.

    OCaml

    1996

    ML family. Used by Jane Street, Facebook for fast type-safe code.

    Blockchain & smart contracts

    Languages that move money. One bug = millions lost. Security first.

    Solidity

    2014

    Ethereum's contract language. EVM, Base, BNB, Avalanche, Monad.

    Move

    NEW
    2019

    Born at Meta (Diem). Assets are first-class objects — "resources cannot be duplicated or deleted by mistake." Powers Sui and Aptos. Get out the way, indeed.

    Rust (Soroban / Solana)

    2010

    Used for Stellar Soroban contracts and all Solana programs. Memory-safe.

    Cairo

    2020

    StarkNet's language for provable computation (zk-STARKs).

    Plutus (Haskell)

    2021

    Cardano's smart contract language. Pure functional = formally verifiable.

    Hello, Miha — in every tongue

    Same intent — "say hello" — written 16 different ways. Tap a language to see its voice.

    hello.pascal
    Pascal
    program Hello;
    begin
      writeln('Hello, Miha — pozdravljen svet!');
    end.

    Notice: Pascal says begin/end. C asks for headers. Rust insists on safety. Move treats every word as an object. Same hello — different worldview.

    And all of this needed time

    Pascal in school, C at night, Java at work, Rust last year — none of it skipped a step. The same way we two communicate so well now: built on years of patient layers. Time isn't a cost, it's the soil. We stand on a hundred years of someone else's overtime.
