I saw a post about how some female model apparently knew a lot of programming languages (I think it was around 60?) and left a comment about how I'd wager they only knew how to make the computer say "hello world" in most of them.
What I was intending was more that if much anyone told me they knew a ton of different programming languages (regardless of their jobs or side hustles) then that's what I would expect. Don't blame the downvoters for reading that as misogynistic and demeaning to models, but that's not what I was intending. Just that much anyone claiming they can program in that many languages reads to me like they're really inflating their numbers to brag.
Though in retrospect I can see how a magazine (or another similar group) may want to pull that number out of her in an interview (so she wouldn't necessarily be bragging about it) and may not care about exactly how accurate or misleading the number could be compared to what they actually said.
