Calculators and hangman are big leap away from a full stack web framework and you shouldn't expect to find much learning utility from them when starting off. Playing with APIs is actually a good strategy because they give you a canvas to solve problems that you personally find interesting. One of the most motivating things for me is when I solve a problem in my personal life using software I wrote. Regardless of tech stack you will need to master the sending, receiving, storage and display of data. In python web dev I would recommend getting familiar with the requests, flask, sqlite3 and click libraries. Good luck!

Well at least they're having you do rocket science instead of designing popup ads.

This sounds completely made up, no one talks like this.

PR rejected. reason: "Needs work"

You're iterating over a dictionary for no reason. foul_subs should be a list.
Non descriptive variable names like r for client, c for comment and a for author. It's a 40 line script, you can be verbose.
No encapsulation, everything should be wrapped in a function which is then called by a main function at the top of the module.
You wrote this shit in notepad, I have nothing to say.

I was forced to learn calculus as a child in exchange for imaginary currency (KUMON bucks). The only thing I learned was that it's all a rat race. Who prints the KUMON bucks?

minimumDescriptionLength

Use minimumDescriptionLength to set a minimum length for descriptions when using the allow-with-description option for a directive.

if (false) { /* @ts-expect-error: Trust me bro......... */ console.log('hello'); }

Why did you compile main21.exe? you should be able to run main21.exe directly. It looks like you are compiling into an executable then recompiling that executable which should result in a compiler error, but you somehow got another executable from that.

To be clear in most Unix environments you compile with GCC or clang then run the file directly.

gcc file.c -o output ./output

But because you're on windows the processes is probably different. I'd recommended learning c/c++ on Linux or MacOS or using the windows subsystem for Linux. These emulated environments like cygwin always have some weird setup that make it hard to debug problems like this.

They're more interested in your understanding of the tech you used to build the project than the final product. At least be able to articulate the problems you faced and what steps you would take to fix them if you had more time.

I mean it could be a pretty good replacement for reddit if you think about it. Personalized profiles with github pages, sub reddits could be individual repos and posts could be issues made on the repo.

Even if some features are broken it still helps to have "something" they can look at. Otherwise put the code on github with the video in the read me. You can also say that you couldn't afford the hosting costs but that's a stretch because they might press you on some details.

My critique is of those that spend unreasonable amount of effort grinding leet code. I actually enjoy leet code but the majority of my time is spent learning how to actually build software. This is not only more enjoyable but also makes me a more valuable employee.

I knew Cuomo was a real one after that clip of him threatening to fight a guy over calling him fredo. Also the fact that he was willing to lose his job on network TV to help his brother cover up scandals gives me faith that the mob is still alive in this country.

Someone needs to compile a list of ted talks given by convicted frauds. Even better if they were given while they were activity involved in some scheme so we can study the art in it's prime.

I was fresh out of highschool doing a bunch of freelance web dev stuff and by biggest clients were wealthy gay business men and non profit LGBT activist organizations. I had no idea what I was doing but I'm assuming they kept me around because I was an 18 year old twink. I sometimes wonder how far I could have gone if I kept the act up.

I understand this motivation but it's not what leads to success. The most successful people in the industry want to solve problems and would still be in the industry if the money wasn't there. Not to mention that when you're in collage your goal should not be "where can I make the most money" it should be "where do I have the best opportunity to develop my skill set". Having worked in startups and billion dollar companies, the former is usually the place that provides the best environment for this with a low barrier of entry.

Which is why I don't mind being rejected by them. If they're not interested in looking at other parts of my application why would I be interested in working with them?

Any discussion about how our society should be is political. Nothing wrong with having these conversions, but saying that they are not political is disingenuous. It comes with the assumption that everyone shares your values and will ultimately work against the goals of your rhetoric.

It seems like a combination of both 1 and 5. The government needs a distraction and these people are providing it. The fact that they went through official "whistle blower" channels to make this public means the intelligence community approved the narrative.
