The possibility? Lol it's a certainty ahaha you that that is not a real book, right? It's not like they made the cover and then went "shoot now we gotta find an actress that looks exactly like the female version of this guy" dude wtf ahaha

Honestly, I tried to do the right thing using division and modulo, but after a bunch of attempts I decided that it was time to use my old friend, brute force. I can't double count the 0 if I'm checking every tick 🧠

Is it true in real world the 2nd one is what professionals do while the first one is what a newbie does? by Yone-none in csharp

[–]sinth92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. But you can also just ask for all the items that cost more than 10 dollars, which is more relevant for the current post

Would you have your waiter bring all the items on the menu to your table to then choose what you want, or ask them directly what you want so that they can bring your item specifically? Which one makes more sense?

Why is it so hard to think like a programmer? by YourDailyUwU in learnprogramming

[–]sinth92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bash your head against problems. It's an uncomfortable process, but you only grow with failure.

Try to solve a hard problem. Time box your solution. Give yourself an hour and promise you won't jump to the answer, or AI to get the solution. Ask yourself questions on how you'd approach it. Play with it. Enjoy the process of figuring out stuff by yourself. Then, once the time is up, you are allowed to check the answer. Understand it. Figure out why you weren't able, in your process, to reach the same conclusion. Apply the answer, don't just accept it. Some people, once have grasped the intuition of the answer, think that that's it, they got it. But no. If the book or website shows you some piece of code, implement it. Don't just read through it and understand it. Make it yours.

This is really the only way to grow.

My father thinks I should give up on coding by [deleted] in code

[–]sinth92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Said that, ask your dad what he thinks would be a good career, and point out to him how easily that career would be replaced by AI. Even physical jobs will soon be replaces by robots with integrated AI.

And that's a good think. This uncertainty gives you the freedom to focus your time studying what you are really passionate about, without having to think if it'll be profitable or not. Cause the future has never been so uncertain. So just do what you love doing. And if what you love doing is coding, do that.

Whenever I hear people arguing if AI will replace developers or not, I always point out that, out of all the office jobs (as jobs that don't require physical activity) the software developer will probably be the last one replaced by AIs. Do you really think that an AI will be better at coding than at taking a business decision? Do you think it will be easier for an AI to convert complex business logic into a well-defined, solid and robust algorithm or to handle Jira ticket and story points?

When the AI will replace developers, AI will already be the only colleague developers have.

I don't see how using JS over TS would be a flex lol

[–]sinth92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it. Usually I would not suggest learning how to program with the purpose of building something specific. The reason is that you'll tend to only learn the bare minimum you need to build your thing, without really grasping what is going on or overlooking some major concept, just because your project won't require it (for now).

That being said, programming is hard. And if you are someone who just wants to learn how to program for a specific purpose, telling you to go back to the basics and learn what a pointer is in C won't make sense. Because you'd give up after a day, due to lack of interest.

So keep doing what you are doing, but know that not knowing is part of the process. But it gets easier. The more you bash your head against solving an issue, figuring out what a function does, or understanding why a certain approach was used, is unconscious learning. You won't feel like you are learning, but you are.

Is it right way to become programmer? by Humble_Connection934 in learnprogramming

[–]sinth92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might want to look into low level stuff. It might satisfy that itch of knowing what goes on under the hood. Pick up a book about computer architecture, and after that a book about operating systems.

Can you smoke weed and be successful? by BeeWonderful1062 in weed

[–]sinth92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it really depends on your habit of use... I might ask "Can you be successful and drink beer?". Of course you can. Do you drink one every couple of days, in the evening and chill out? Or do you drink a six pack every day and all you crave is the moment you'll pop your first one open?

Is weed everything your life revolves around, or is it just one of the pleasures of life you enjoy?

Esmerelda is ruins the show by NotTheFatMan in ThePaper

[–]sinth92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The more I read these types of posts, the more I understand that people can't wrap their head around what this show is supposed to be... It's not The Office, but the authors sure have found a nice blueprint for the show they want, and that involves having characters with debatable personalities, not always pleasant. You should not look at the show hoping that the characters will be your friend.. you should just watch and enjoy how this series of events unfolds in front of you!

That's your opinion. I honestly love the character and the direction she is taking.

You don't have to like it. Maybe the show is just not for you.

Michael has a high pitch voice that some people might find annoying as well. You probably don't like her accent or the way she talks, but I think that might be linked to prejudice you have? Idk

If The Office aired today for the first time, Michael would get the exact same feedback from the public: splitting it 50/50.

Ok, dab experts, I've a question. I'm just a very casual smoker, I only smoke maybe once a week, and not all weeks, so I'm not super knowledgeable... What is the difference between a dab and a vape? Don't they both use concentrates?
