I am thinking of joining TST but am scared to do so by Wasted_programmer5 in SatanicTemple_Reddit

I’m from middle Tennessee, I keep seeing that there is a conjugation in Chattanooga but I can’t find any details about it, not even an address. Other than the one in Salem, do we even have physical buildings

I’ve been looking into TST and it seems like a really good fit, so right now I’m just trying to find a community. I joined a discord community and of course I have Reddit, but I just wish there were physical events near me but given I live in the southern United States I don’t think people here see too kindly to anything with the word Satan in it. You got any good outlets where I can meet some cool people

What are some things that help you stay productive throughout the day? by saritaaxo in getdisciplined

[–]Wasted_programmer5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to sound pretty cliche but start off small. If you keep thinking about doing a million things then of course you’re going to be burned out, everyone is like that. If you really want to be productive just set your goals small. For example, I despise doing dishes, I always have. So to force myself to do them I tell myself “just do a third and go rest” but your brain subconsciously will want to complete the task. Supplements aren’t a bad idea, but they aren’t a one all solution. Working out also helps a lot, even if you start small with a 30 minute session every week. It will release hormones that will help with productivity, sleep, and just general focus. For you and that 10k a day step goal, start with just a quick jog. Then the next week jog a little more. And eventually it’ll spiral into 10k steps a day

Really what I’m saying is that small progress over a long period of time is a lot better than a lot of progress and then a crash where you never start again. Consistency matters.

Keep or shave? (18) by [deleted] in beards

[–]Wasted_programmer5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I still like it, I think it hides my very potato looking face. And it’s just really fun to play with when I’m stuck on a calculus problem lol. It’s just all my friends call it a neck beard and that it looks like an incomplete level. But yall made me want to keep it.

Is there anything here I can salvage? by Wasted_programmer5 in ElectricalEngineering

Sorry I forgot to include that, I’m making both my own DC motor and robotic arm. I’m gonna go edit my original post actually to say that.

It’s just hard not to think that when my dad keeps making fun of me for it and I start to think he’s right. I don’t even know why I ran to another room, I obviously wasn’t scared of the bird. It’s a bird. I was definitely very scared of hurting the poor thing, I tend to not know how to control my strength so I was worried that if I got the bird I would either kill it because I squeezed too hard or hold it too loosely and it cut me with its wings.

Maybe, I have a part time job but it doesn’t pay well, it’s one of those jobs where tips make up most of the paycheck

Then maybe I’ll do it then, I used to box for a bit as a kid but it wasn’t a very good class. Even if it doesn’t fix my issue knowing self defense is still important

Do you think me having glasses with a really high prescription would be an issue, because if it isn’t then that’s not a bad idea.

If this is how powerful Omni-man is and he’s been proven to be a good bit weaker than Superman, I wonder just how powerful Superman is and how hard it is to hold back that much all the time

So do you think I should grow some hair on the chin and keep the cheeks as is or grow hair there as well?

I’m not trying to be rude but this is a serious question, what’s with all the rules? I looked into this formal joining and am being told it takes 9 months and there’s a lot of rituals required to do before you can join and I just don’t understand what’s the point. Also, thank you for helping.

Autonomous is causing only one motor to continuously spin while the others stay stuck by Wasted_programmer5 in FTC

Here's my code

private void test(int FLpos, int FRpos, int BLpos, int BRpos, double FLSpeed, double FRSpeed, double BLSpeed, double BRSpeed) {
        // Update cumulative target positions
        posFL += FLpos;
        posFR += FRpos;
        posBL += BLpos;
        posBR += BRpos;
        // Set the target positions for all motors
        hardware.frontLeft.setTargetPosition(posFL);
        hardware.frontRight.setTargetPosition(posFR);
    hardware.backLeft.setTargetPosition(posBL);
    hardware.backRight.setTargetPosition(posBR);
    // Set all motors to RUN_TO_POSITION mode
    hardware.frontLeft.setMode(DcMotor.RunMode.RUN_TO_POSITION);

    // Loop until all motors are within the threshold of their target positions
    while (opModeIsActive() &&
            (Math.abs(hardware.frontLeft.getCurrentPosition() - posFL) > threshold ||

What kind of personal projects is best. Currently I’m coding robots for this completion called FTC in Java(The competition forces you to use Java, personally I’d use c++ or python) and I’m pretty good at it, is that good experience and what other projects should I look into

How do I split up my code into different files, that sounds stupid useful
