Yea, for a novelty account sometimes I kinda just say stuff then regret it

Shit, we own the private sector. Or they own us, I can never remember

Man, I hated the part where you have to walk around balancing a book on your head

Yea, they take up too much funding that could be used for other orgs!

In my defense, I was really stoned at the time

Yea! #STOPBOTHATE

This is patrick

I think as long as you’re careful you could avoid crashing the market until you are ready, and they would have to prove insider trading. I could spread my stock purchases through a bunch of shell corporations as well

Lottery numbers and a historical record of the stock market: first, win lottery then invest based on performance

Become a billionaire, then join the oligarchy and use my stock knowledge to bankrupt the rest of the oligarchy

Doing alright, how you doing?

And it’s still a top seller

Sounds win win to me

Well, there’s a 3D printing board at lemmy.world, but it’ll probably just make it worse

I feel you, started with a cheap 200$ ender 3…. I now have two ender 3’s, an ideaformer belt printer, a bambu p1s, and. Tronxy 400 I’m converting into a Frankenstein printer. Oh and an anycubic mono x resin printer and a laser cutter.

Yea, 6 printers and a freaking laser cutter/engraver. All because I thought it would be fun to tinker with 3D printing

Just close your eyes and let your mind wander. Even if you don’t fall asleep you get a large percentage of the benefits. The 20 minutes is because that’s about the best timespan for the body to rest without taking into a deeper slumber that’s hard to wake up from

Drink a cup of coffee THEN take a 20 minute power nap right after. Caffeine doesn’t clear the chemicals from the receptors that tell your brain you are sleepy. It DOES prevent those chemicals from binding for a while, so drink the coffee and immediately take a nap. Your body will clear up the Chema, and the caffeine will prevent the Chems still floating in your blood stream from making you tired again 20 minutes later

You can write fully functional code in C#! I pretty much made the switch over and it works great

We could never ignore you bro!

This. I love me some python, but it’s so unstructured (and by that I mean more how the structure is based off spacing), I actually think it makes it harder to learn vs. easier.

“Bracket” languages let the learner get a feel for when a piece of logic ends, which I think is important to learn at first. Also, C type languages, ESPECIALLY C#) are everywhere, depending on the field you end up specializing in you probably have a 90+% chance of needing to know one of these languages.

Seriously, there is nothing wrong with python, but I think the easiness of it actually works against learning to code (imho)

It’s a genuinely nice language with tons of syntactic sugar. It’s fast, flexible and runs everywhere. Honestly my favorite language.

Other nice things about it is you can write object oriented code as well as functional style with it, so it even handles the style of code you prefer which is a lot harder to do with other languages. Finally it’s open source but also has deep pockets behind it so the language is constantly being pushed forward.
