Bottom post of the previous page:

well good news on my end. The shitstorm was partly miscommunication and not caring about details. They still need our help to clear the queue, but it should be less of a demand now that they understand that our phones don't have to be open for us to receive customers and we use a system that's not tied to the phones at all. All they were claiming they saw was "Not Ready". And not that we're in a specific not ready state. Hopefully this idiocy will be solved entirely soon.

You missed my point. It's just a matter of learning a new language when you already know how to program. For your first programming language, you also have to learn programming itself, which significantly complicates things.

EndgamerAzari · Thu May 19, 2016 9:15 pm

That's true, but I guess I'm seeing main main barrier to entry as the language/languages. It's like the key the opens the mental door to actually be able to learn how to use them.

Did that make any sense? I think I'm hungover.

dont worry my man i coded some things for this game a few times and while i was in coderbus i got some dank coder memes leaked to me, and it turns out that 90% of shit you don't have to remember half the time since you just google it/ask somebody else

Its more like learning a different dialect than a whole other language.
Actually, probably easier than that even - fucking teacakes.

Every time I switch between C++ and Java I have to reeducate myself about how arrays and arraylists/vectors work in the other language, and right now I would not be able to write a class in C++ if my life depended on it.

By the way, funny that you should mention keys, because keys is actually how I visualize variable types. Say you have a function int doShit(int a, String b). This function basically has two keyholes. The only types of keys that fits in the first keyhole are integer key,s a variable of type int. The second keyhole only takes String keys. Because the function is of type int, it can also be used as an int key itself, and you can even pass it directly as an input to itself.

So you could call it like:

Code: Select all

doShit(doShit(1, "marco"), "one day while andy was...")

I had an old roommate who's a professional developer help me with a couple of my issues last night. Talk about standing on the shoulders of giants! Even though it was kindergarten-level stuff, it felt so gratifying to be able to communicate on the same wavelength. I can tell I'm already starting to be able to think the right way, even if I don't know what the hell any of it means most of the time.

Is wearing more leather than boots, a jacket, and gloves (but only when its cold) still considered to be massively gay?

EndgamerAzari · Fri May 20, 2016 8:42 pm

I think everyone's too preoccupied with contemplating their own inevitable death to really care that much.

Maccus · Post by **Maccus** » Fri May 20, 2016 9:00 pm #178163

What else could you wear that's leather?

EndgamerAzari · Fri May 20, 2016 9:02 pm

Full leather pants might get you some strange looks, admittedly, unless you've gone full biker.

Maybe the bit on the back of the box of antihistamines wasn't lying when it said don't exceed the dosage and don't consume alcohol.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Okay, decided to bite the bullet and bought 100 feet of cable instead

Fuck this place for not having an integrated system

I THINK I fixed it

The upload speed is a bit wonky, though I can tolerate that

Takeguru · Post by **Takeguru** » Sat May 21, 2016 11:14 pm #178505

Take the pictured download speed, divide by 35

Upload was slightly better, at 3 mb/s

Takeguru · Post by **Takeguru** » Sat May 21, 2016 11:51 pm #178511

I tried all my multiplayer games and didn't notice the upload fucking with me

My phone gets 50/50 right next to the router, so I don't even know what's up

Worn the damn things for 10 years, they have never gotten comfy, if anything they've gotten more uncomfortable as time has past due to the impact of crappy eating and being glued to a chair all day, everyday.

Maaan that was a great thing about that time I went to Australia. They don't do ties. A tie is not a thing I saw in person over there. Even when I grabbed temp office jobs for some roobux before heading out travelling.
The temp agency handed out a list of interview tips to improve chances of getting the job, and one of the tips was to remember to wear shoes to the interview.
Not to wear smart, polished shoes - just wearing shoes at all.

I only ever wear bowties.
I would wear cravats, but I'm not quite that old.

Only thing they're good for is a makeshift noose

Luckily I don't wear a tie in my job.

Twat does not rhyme with Knot.
Twat rhymes with Bat, all I hear from americans when they try to say that is Twot, why can't you say it right?

Edit: this comes off harsher than I mean it to but it's late so idk really how to make it less harsh.

Takeguru · Post by **Takeguru** » Mon May 23, 2016 1:52 am #178849

American English and British English have been slowly diverging for about as long as American English has been a thing

Dropping the U's from a lot of our words was actually just being cheap bastards, though

Remie Richards · Mon May 23, 2016 1:55 am

I mean, I guess I could see Twot coming from Swat? but still that's really not how you say Twat lol.

EndgamerAzari · Mon May 23, 2016 2:16 pm

This is fucking bizarre.

Apparently, while I am jealous of my brother for being slim and lean, he wishes he had MY body type so he could get FUCKING MASSIVE. Genetics pulled the ol' switcheroo on us both.

No that's dumb! The smart choice would be to have a fist fight with your brother on top of a bipedal tank while you complain about superior and inferior genes.
