Why is it always the shitty jokes that I don't think much of that land like this? I'll drop one that I think is a banger and get a chuckle at best, but then some random pun will kill.

Good question! For me the language isn't too important, kinda like with normal languages, it's all about the concepts being conveyed. With programming those concepts are, at a basic level; variables, conditions, lists, loops, objects, and functions. All (decent) languages with have the ability to convey these concepts one way or another, so it's just typically just comes down to syntax when learning a new language.

Obviously there are some exceptions where old or niche languages don't support something. But typically once you know 'programming' the language doesn't matter too much. For me, I use a few different languages depending on what I'm working on. Front-end web stuff; Javascript. Server side logic; nodejs and groovy. Database; SQL.

The driving force behind learning new languages (again for me) has been either for work because that's what is in use and I need to modify existing code, or because I've seen the language in use somewhere else and want to try it out.

Hope some of that answered your question :)

I was in school for electrical engineering and took a single C course in the second year. Absolutely fell in love with the idea of programming, dropped out of university and switched to a college programming course. Been a programmer for 8 years this may.

How are you planning on developing the film? It's really hard to find somewhere in Canada (at least in Ontario) to the point that I've started developing them myself. Surprisingly easy to do these days, and could save some money if you're going to be developing a lot!

As far as nicknames go that one ain't bad!

I remember thinking it was stupid that I could cause something like that, I chalked it up to my school's IT infrastructure just being bad (rural Ontario) lol glad to know it doesn't mess things up now, never tried it again after that!

Hey I did that when I was in elementary school. Was bored playing around and unplugged the ethernet cable from the back of the computer and plugged it into an open port on the wall. ~~Queue~~ Cue the whole network going down and me pretending I had no idea how that happened. We ended up getting a talk about not playing with the wires once someone figured out what happened 😅 never figured out it was me tho haha

I have the same problem. Never met an edible that had any effect on me. I've been smoking daily for years though, so my tolerance is something else. Sucks because I'd like to be able to use edibles in places you can't smoke (concerts, etc) but alas

I used to wait waaay to long between changing my blades. That stopped when I ended up stabbing myself in the finger because I was pressing so hard because of the dull blade and the knife slipped.

Now I change my blade anytime I find myself pressing harder, or need to make more than two passes. Sometimes I just throw in a new one when I'm starting a project for someone else as stuff tends to come out nicer with a sharp blade.

+1 to the other user that mention stroping as that can help extend the usable lifetime (by a little).

But yeah, if you can get a big pack of them cheap online and just change them as you feel you need to.

 
 

Been playing around with a little cnc mill I got for Christmas. I think these came out cute!
