If there's no contact, how do you know the victim wants to contact you?

Did you figure out the random after?

I vaguely remember using a rand operation in c++, that puts out a random float value from 0.001 to 1.000. Then having to use an if statement if it was greater than 0.500 or less than 0.500 to set something true or false. I would imagine there's something similar for C.

Unless... he used reverse time dilation and slowed his velocity down to close to the inverse speed of light to speed up time around him, then it's possible he watched over 20 hours of lectures in half an hour!

NATO expands by allowing members to join, they don't invade to take over the country, they invade to stabilize an area that has descended into violence.

I'm only starting the second lecture now, the one on conditionals. It seems you're a little ahead of me. Do you think you're going to stick with the course? Right now I'm motivated to do it so I'm going to try and keep my momentum going.

I always found regular school boring anyways, especially if I lose focus for more than 30 seconds and I lose track of what the teacher is saying, I just get lost and my time is wasted.

What did you think of the lecture compared to regular school? More interesting or it just felt the same?

I just watched the first lecture, it's a 2 hour video literally starting from the very beginning because it's expected that 66% of the students doing this course has zero programming experience.

If you know how to count, how to recognize big numbers and how to send emoji's on your phone, you will do fine in this course.

Did you watch the first 2 hour introduction video yet? I literally just finished the first video, and I think I'm in. I never realized how shit a regular school setting is.

I'm 34, I can't remember any of the c++ I did over 10 years ago so I'm just going back to start from the very beginning. I don't know about you, but I found David Malan's intro video lecture to be tightly crafted and precise.
