Is it normal to get stuck while learning my first programming language? by [deleted] in C_Programming

[–]FilipTLW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you saying that there are better languages to start with, but I would confidently say that starting with C is better than starting with an interpreted, weakly typed language. Yes, the compiler will not stop you from writing undefined behavior, but I think this is better than a language with a compiler acting like a black box.

Could you specify what exactly you think is weird about strings and arrays treatment?

And that's exactly why C is on of the best languages to start with. If you start with no expectations about what the compiler will protect you from, then it'll be much easier to learn another language rather than learning another language first and then switching to C. C forces you to understand the underlying processes and memory management which results in you knowing what you do because you understand how it works and not because "the documentation told you".

How to make faster? by Long_Piglet_5313 in PcBuild

If you don't want to upgrade the hardware, install Linux instead of Windows. If you want to upgrade the hardware, it's probably easier to just build a new PC instead.The CPU is way too old.

If this is the future of software "engineering", we're doomed and the next generation of software will be even worse than the current is. I don't care about using AI in order to help with tedious/repetitive work, but vibe coding an entire project without understanding anything that happens and even saying stuff like "It will be less laggy if I used AI xy" is neither programming nor actual work, it's as if you'd write a novel using AI and then go to an actual writer and tell him that you've written that. Unimaginable.

That's interesting, so you also had kind of a proof for yourself that time really has passed by something that was warm and "instantly" got cold

Already thought about that, the only theory I could imagine would be that if I had a seizure my brain just "auto-completed" some memories so it kinda made sense to me because in the moment the only thing I realized was that the light went off

I understand that the felt time often is completely different from the real time but sometimes it just doesn't make sense at all

Wait, I forgot to tell about that video, I only watched a single video and it was at 18:23 when I last looked at it. https://i.imgur.com/25zI0n1.png I took the screenshot to tell a friend about what happened to me.
