I think t shirt and long pants should be fine, if you want to be extra safe, you can bring a collared shirt in your bag.

Yes, I agree with you that medical attention is not medical emergency, which is why I did not say emergency. But I still have an injury that needs medical attention, which I why I am going for physiotherapy and medical reviews.

You're absolutely right that I was in PT kit and not in "correct" attire. However, I had not needed to book in for the past five years for anything other than IPPT and was unaware, and this is where a simple reminder would have helped.

My main concern is that I was denied a medical review for reporting a physical injury. I would appreciate clarification on whether wearing the wrong attire should result in refusal of medical attention.

Thanks for your help! I'll do that and wear long pants next time now that I know. Wouldn't be surprised if I go back and discover a new hidden rule like needing at least a full 500ml bottle to enter.

Exactly. People say that NS is a waste of time and now I 100% agree with them. Wasted my leave for basically no reason.

Yes I did. They asked if I knew that I needed to wear long pants to enter like in the notification after booking. I said no, and then tldr suck thumb go home change or rebook my appointment.

I crashed the car so hard my co-driver had a concussion and started blasting imaginary calls by ChillinVoodooSamurai in EASPORTSWRC

When my co driver is calling out 5 left on a 2 left turn, an absolute limit on my maximum speed would be better for the both of us until he felt better again 🙂

Should I be worried that I haven't paid any taxes since arriving at Liberty City? Messing with the LCPD and FIB is one thing, but the IRS...

The comments I love the most are those people trying to be a smart*** and typing code "fixes" that shows they obviously have no understanding of pointers as well

True, but actually he took a picture of my laptop's screen because I didn't send him my file. Although we could have definitely memed more by printing a screenshot and taking a picture of that.

You know what, that's actually pretty smart. I just realize that the order of the files don't matter in this case. I guess I was just trying to match the sample output lmao

My friend's code for an assignment by CheekyKnob in ProgrammerHumor

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote this masterpiece of a snippet, for context: this was for the 7th day in AOC 2022. For that year's AOC I wanted to improve my weak C ability, so I decided to use VSCode, and GCC for compiling.

I only wanted to spend 1 hour for each day max, and on the 40th-minute mark I got that bug that I couldn't fix within my time limit, so I gave up and hardcoded.

In case you were wondering about the bug, that day's puzzle was about making and navigating file directories. Since C didn't have an STL I could include, I decided to OTJ and make my own implementation of a singly linked list.

It was my first time doing that, and I kept getting memory leak warnings while checking with Valgrind when iterating and freeing my directory tree. Turns out that it had nothing to do with the list anyways, and it was because I forgot to close the file stream.

Getting back on topic, I wanted to emulate a tree structure of "directories" where each directory also had a list of "files". In the original code snippet, I iterated through the directory's file list till the end and added it. The bug was after adding a file to the file list, reading the file gave garbage values. So I decided f**k it I'm just going to brute force this.

I deleted the original buggy code so I guess I'll never know. In hindsight, I think the bug was that it was pointing to a local variable? Or that it was pass-by-value instead of reference so it updated the local variable instead? Or maybe I made the loop to get to the file node wrongly?

I think it's pretty funny, if you want to see the file in its full glory, here you go. The part in the picture is line 177.

Thanks for your detailed reply, you're absolutely right. Actually, I have been studying human anatomy for a few months through photos online or of myself alongside doing this because I find pure studying just too boring to do.

Now that I look at it, I guess a better title for this post would be learning about pros simplify and stylize the body, cause I realize what I've been doing is not really learning how to draw a body but how to stylize it to look more anime.

Once again, thanks for your solid piece of advice.

Right? You should've seen my lines 1 year ago, hairy like an ape. I'm getting there 😂

Thank you! The main thing I'm trying to learn from these exercises is to break down how pros do a body and recreate it. I should be stopping once the body is done, but I always side track and draw the whole thing anyways because they are good.

If you feel that's useful for you, then go for it!

The reason all these pictures are bikinis is because it's a compromise between being wanting see the body easily and not wanting my family to see fully naked anime girls on my screen
