but how many of them can do c#?
Let’s start from Excel, then scratch. That would be awesome
Most likely would be Zelenskyy, he supports modernizing government for the Internet Age.
Honorable mention to Pope Francis, who trained as a chemist and has the least political background out of all of them. I bet he would know how to code if he wasn’t born in 1936
Supporting IT doesn’t mean knowing how to code.
Supporting IT doesn’t mean knowing how to code.
But NOT supporting IT strongly predicates no coding ability at all. So if he supports a better IT, then there’s a chance.
That’s why I said “Most Likely”
Unless you think another one is more likely?
Having C# experience also doesn’t mean knowing how to code. According to all these interviews I’ve been doing.
I’m pretty sure Biden doesn’t speak The King’s English, but maybe Trudeau does?
Who’s the last American President that spoke multiple languages?
Edit:
Oh wow, Wikipedia to the rescue!

Seems like Carter and F. D. Roosevelt are the last two that could have been considered to be truly comfortable in a second language.
English>French>German seems to be the tier list. Then there’s Erdogan. Does everyone have go through their own translation service to call in, or does he have to provide a translator that everyone talks to? Situational?
When meeting with each other, heads of state who speak different languages always have their own translators present
While most of these leaders speak more than one language, many of them would not feel comfortable engaging in diplomacy or negotiations outside their native language
Yeah, e.g. Merkel and Putin. Both can speak German and Russian very well, but they still used translators for offical talks. Too much of a risk to use a phrase or word that means something in one language, but translated it can mean something else or have bad implications.
On that level you don’t want an accidental misunderstanding.
Not even talking about insults, world leaders cpuld identify that, but imagine accidentally promising or indicating something you didn’t want to.
Which makes sense, the other guy’s translator could bullshit you and you wouldn’t notice
Yeah, you can end up with a negotiation like this:
Having Sunak block out my country is irrationally aggravating.
That said our Taoiseach would probably tell you he speaks every language here and that he always had and thinks everyone should.
This was posted a lot of times, and it’s not defined what “spoken” actually means. E.g. you can hear Orbán speaking English in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bO9v8aKSj24
Those are definitely English words, and by Hungarian standards it’s not that bad (Only 25% of Hungarians can speak English according to 2022 census). But is this the same level as other leaders? On other threads it was mentioned that Erdogan can speak some other language just not really well, so it’s not counted here.
The pope speaks Vaticanian? Vaticanese? Vaticanglo?
is “latin” the word you’re searching for?
Yes, vaticanzo, that’s it
Edit: surely this should be the flag for Latin.
Leaving Belgium and Luxemburg out so that the rest is not embarrassed too much? I mean, those speak like 4 languages by default.
