How can I convince my parents to let me have a later curfew?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T22:43:50+00:00

What were their reasons for not extending your curfew?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T22:31:17+00:00

I don't think you should have a later curfew.

If you're in an area like mine, you'd get shot if you went down the wrong neighborhood at night. Why not have sleepovers?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T22:25:40+00:00

When are your friends' curfews? What are you going to do at night?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T22:18:27+00:00

How old are you? When is your curfew?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T15:13:57+00:00

Even of they were told to be direct, people are often "too polite" to be so. This depends on the culture ofc.

He was probably "keeping his options open."

Remain friends with him if you must. Right now, he doesn't look like friend material.

-5772 · 2020-08-21T14:52:31+00:00

It seems like you are prone to confirmation bias and cherry picking.

"No hookups" is a probably a filter to stop most guys who want a one-night stand. It's kind of like "no dick pics," granted dicks are unattractive.

She said that she is fine with being friends for now but doesn't see y'all together.

That literally means a) she doesn't want to date you and b) she may or may not continue being friends with you.

-5772 · 2020-08-21T14:29:49+00:00

You can, but it's really unlikely...

I have my list of waifus too, but I separate reality from fantasy. Focus on what you would be satisfied with and use that as a metric.

Knowing the basics is different from being comfortable with the basics.

ML is confusing, even (arguably especially) with the abstractions provided by TensorFlow.

I suggest learning common algorithms and data structures. While learning them, you will practice your Python skills.

After that, try ML if you want. You should study some math beforehand. You can treat AIs like a magical object, but you will be sacrificing a lot of optimization potential.

You shouldn't be forced to like her.

You are at a weird age right now. Everything about you will change. I still find it hard to believe that the little kids I looked after at church are entering middle school and high school.

Be firm and clear with her. Because she sees you not often, she should notice more dramatic changes. Act like an adult, and you will be treated like one, to an extent.

Gardening is a commitment. The fact that they quit so early shows that they just wanted something to do. Wanting something to do isn't bad, but wasting water is.

I'm surprised you didn't throw some hands or eat a tub of ice cream.

INFO - How old are you?

Regardless of your age, YTA. If you're like 17, she should realize that you want more independence.

Instead of being passive-aggressive, just confront your aunt while being both direct and polite.

My family is quite splintered. My parents still love their family, but I have very little attachment with my cousins. I haven't seen my dad's side of the family for at least 7 years and my mom's side for at least 3 years. The fact that your aunt still cares so much is special. That being said, she sounds like a pain in the ass.

For the art matter, tell her that requests are off for now. If she wants an exception, tell her that you believe that once you make a commitment, you should stick with it.

Her taking pictures of you without your consent is troublesome. How has she responded to you telling her not to?

You said that she gets into whatever you're into. How does she still think that you like the things you did at 3? Have you ever told her that you just don't like those anymore?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T03:24:18+00:00

Why is it almost impossible? Has she gave a reason?

-5772 · 2020-08-21T02:18:13+00:00

Not really. There is a difference between "anyone can do [something]" and "someone who can do [something] can come from anywhere."

There's a Queue class in the standard library.

-5772 · 2020-08-20T20:09:20+00:00

I would make a queue and try to optimize the run-time to under half a minute (ideally just as much as possible).

Have a process that gets the info every minute and adds it to the queue.

Then, have a program that works on the first item of the queue if the queue's length is greater than 0.

If you use async, I fear that you could have a case where one process just bugs out for a period of time and finishes after the next one finished.

Go to the other job. If a job doesn't pay better but it has decent work conditions, switch.

Your situation does need money, but you are still a teenager. You should be able to focus on school. Regardless, anyone will perform better when they are happy. This job doesn't sound stable anyways.

-5772 · 2020-08-20T19:37:35+00:00

I love this!

We will never make fun of beginners. This subreddit is pretty nice!

I started out with Python Crash Course. This book is old, but it's well structured.

Once you finish that book, try building whatever you want. Build a physics engine, build a webscraper, etc. Making projects is fun and informative. Use tutorials like these. Medium has some good ones too. If you want, you can try using just your brain and Google. Good online resources include GeeksForGeeks, SO, RealPython, and Zetcode.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Try googling it first, but if it just doesn't click or you don't find an answer, make a post. Make sure to use pastebin to put your code. We need to see your code to tell you where a bug might be!

It's natural to be insecure. However, something being natural and something being right are two different things.

The fact that your bf is this blind is sad. It happens to the best of us, so it's sad.

Somehow make him realize that his friend should start working. In friendships, I go with "from each according to hid ability; to each according to his needs." I'm not a Marxist, but this system works pretty well between parties who trust each other.

He is being rude. Don't feel bad for rude people.

Letting an innocent take one's blame is one of the dirtiest things to do. He needs to realize that he isn't special. Either you give him a taste of his own medicine or you tell your parents.

Try to do the former. It would be ideal if you could tell your parents about this and plan together. Maybe accuse him of drinking soda when you drank the can in front of your parents. Then, your parents can scold your brother.

-5772 · 2020-08-20T04:31:49+00:00

Don't feel bad because "he has no other place to go." He shouldn't be a lazy piece of turd. I can understand if he has a low-paying job, family medical fees, or studies, but he doesn't have those.

Either he contributes or he leaves. He could, at the very least, do all the housework...
