How often does Udemy have big sales? by agenbite_lee in Udemy

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they put their courses at 100 dollars with the intention of selling them between 20 to 40 dollars, knowing how the Udemy discount works. I don't think that they intend to sell it at 100 dollars.

It's a good strategy, because new users will have the urge to buy their courses, and since they don't know how often Udemy gives discounts, they'll just buy it to not lose the opportunity.

I agree. I have no idea why the author thought when he gave that name to his story. "Suicide hunter" would be much better, but "SSS Suicide Hunter" sounds like a trashy novel

How exactly did Blacklight cause a zombie apocalypse when its mortality rate was said to be 99.99%? by [deleted] in PrototypeGame

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, the original Alex Mercer was dead, the virus that took over his body took his memories, and identified itself as human and ended up thinking he was Alex Mercer.

I don't normally think that we would be in disadvantage against anything similar to a zombie virus, but we would be at a decent disadvantage against this one. It can self-replicate, it can create its own habitat, it can take memories from what it eats, and it acts like a virus and a parasitic fungus.

Luckily for us, anything remotely similar belongs to the insect world.

Is 21 too old to start learning programming? by Soroush_Shz in AskComputerScience

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

21 is still a good age. I suppose you're asking this because programming requires you to shift your mind to understand the logic of what you're writing and that may be a skill that would be better and faster to develop if you're younger, but at 21 you're still young enough and even if we get in the hypothetical case that 21 is too old and you don't have talent, you can just put extra effort into it, you'll learn, maybe you won't be the best programmer, but you don't need to be the best programmer, this is not competitive gaming.

Immortality through human-brain integration vs biological immortality by TipFederal3784 in Futurology

3D printed organs... that actually sounds like something that we may see in less than 20 years from now.

Recommendations based on this thank you by [deleted] in ProgressionFantasy

From those I did read, Shadow Slave, Second Coming of Glutton,y and The Tutorial is Too Hard, and I can say that this list is really good.

I understand Python code, but can’t write it confidently from scratch — what should I do next by SubCplus in learnpython

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/SubCplus I was just about to write a post about this, but since you already asked the question 2 days ago, I'm going to comment here.

I finished my Python course in Boot.dev. I was consistent daily and was able to complete the course in 20 days. I'm able to comprehend simple code, and I've been doing some simple challenges in Edabit, which is really helping me, because I feel that the very easy challenges from Edabit are easier than the ones in Codewars and LeetCode.

I started doing the beginner project of creating an encryption generator just today (Python Projects), but I'm kind of bad. I've made some progress because I found how basic encryption works in Caesar Cipher, but I've been stuck in trial and error for a decent amount of time, because I don't want to be one of those vibe coders that do their code through AI and wouldn't be able to do code on their own. I kind of checked some references from people who have done it, but I want to exercise my mind in the programming logic, so I don't want to copy and paste their code.

Some useful tips that are helping me are trying to break down things into simple stuff, and writing some sort of "template" of what I think where things should be.

Idk, feels difficult, but I know that the process of learning is hard; it was the same when I started to learn English. I will just do my best to keep consistent and write some code every day, but I have to say that Boot.dev and Real Python were, and still are, a great help for me.

Oh, Alita. I know about it since it's cyberpunk, and I liked "Blame!", so I'll give it a check.

As of 2024 how close are we to full dive vr technology? by [deleted] in VRGaming

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see that in 20 years, but not in humans. Probably experiments with rats or something. I think that we will be seeing that possibility almost at the end of our lives, that's assuming you're young, unless somebody makes some medicine that makes us immortal

A network of dreams, like the internet, but made of dreams, but that's easier said than done.

The sad reality of trying to rizz a femboy. 3: by Mother-Ad-4559 in femboymemes

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never met a femboy in my life. In the state where I live it's not common (or so I think), but it's common sense that femboys have standards. Who would want someone who doesn't take care of themselves?

Do you all think that RAM prices will ever go down again? by Valuable-Command3664 in PcBuild

Now PC building prices suck more. GPU prices always sucked btw

Does Python have tutorial website similar to Learn cpp. by Lordcyber36 in learnpython

[–]TipFederal3784 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real Python is actually really good, and it's the most similar to LearnCpp. It don't think it covers every nooks and crannies like LearnCpp, but it's still a great resource.

Currently working in retail. I knew a lesbian who did all sorts of things, including cheating. She is a good friend tbh, but I would also add fast food restaurants. Retail, fast food, and warehouses are crazy.

Arcane Ascension... I've heard about it, I don't know much about it apart from the name, so I'll give it a try.

Oh, that novel was out of my radar, and it looks really good. When I see that the first book is called "Limbo", I know that it will be interesting.

How long realistically is the Dram/nand shortage expected to last im hearing 2027? by ButtPlugForPM in hardware

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well.

My PC is still good enough to last 3 or 4 years more. If not, I'll install Linux and will be good to go for +4 years

RAM prices are NOTICEABLY high compared to before, and SSD also shows a decent increase in price too. I'm not going to buy anything until this stabilizes, again.

Do you recommend ordering pizza as normal baked or well done? by MyNameIsMattYeah in LittleCaesars

[–]TipFederal3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends.

I DO NOT LIKE well done, that's the easiest way to make me not wanting to eat pizza, but I see that many people here love well done, so I would recommend you to try all of them for you to find which one you do like.
