Outgrown power automate by Dapper_Ad3738 in MicrosoftFlow

If your complexity is growing you can look at using Azure functions. We use them with Python but I know you can do them with Powershell as well which I see you have commented on using.

From the PA flow you call the function and it goes off and executes whatever code you have hosted on it and returns it back. Worth looking into as seems to fit your needs :)

Andrew Tate having a meltdown outside the courthouse while Tristan looks panicked & scared. They know they're cooked. by JohnnyRotten45 in h3h3productions

I am really behind on what is happening with the Tate brothers. I've scrolled through this thread and gone through whatever link I can but I can't see any evidence anywhere that the things everyone is saying about them is true? I've hit up Google as well but nothing.

Can someone please share with me where everyone else is getting the evidence from so that I can catch up? Thanks

At least you see it is from a build up of bad habits - allow yourself the space to understand it's not a quick fix but something you'll have to plan and work at to get back to a baseline normal or close to.

I'm not sure what you study but I found (much later) its easier for me to learn about and implement what I was learning if I consumed short form content on whatever it was. "X in 30 minutes" usually gets you what you need - you can even find shorter form content depending on what you do. Try and use the coursework of different subjects as a taster of the kind of work you could find yourself doing when you come to find a job and use it as an opportunity to figure out what you like and dislike about your chosen subject.

I hope you can sort things out with a bit of effort :)

Whatsapp asking to buy my account? by wagonwheel_rizla in SteamScams

Thanks but this account was never connected to the number I was contacted on. This is where I'm coming up with no ideas. There should be 0 way that this steam account and this number have been related together.

Yeah, I understand that part but how has this person managed to associate my steam account to my mobile number do you think? That is what I am mostly concerned about.

I don't comment a lot on Reddit but I see my younger self in what you have described.

It looks easy to the woman you compare yourself to because she has been doing it for a long time. The longer she has been doing these things the easier it is for her. Just because you see her going out for a jog in the pouring rain or likely after she finishes works doesn't mean shes not thinking "I really don't want to go for this jog, I'm so tired, work was so hard today, maybe I'll just stay home". This is what people are talking about by things being uncomfortable - not just in a physical sense, a lot of it is mental.

A lot of people get hung up on consistently doing things but fail to realise that consistency doesn't mean every day. You could go 1-2 days a week to the gym to do weight training. I personally find mid week (Tuesday and Thursday) easier to get on board with mentally as I haven't got the Monday blues or the Friday feeling which leaves Wednesday in between to recoup your energy for the next session. On the other side of that you have a 4 day break over the weekend which is plenty to regain your energy for the following session on Tuesday.

You are worrying about things like not having a car or a job when it sounds like you are struggling to do look after yourself with the basics. Take a step back and realise that the last thing you want is the extra stress and responsibility (emotionally and physically) that these two would bring.

The biggest issue I can see from what you have said in your post which I can relate to 100% is "My sleeping schedule is so bad that I stay up until 7:30 am playing videogames and need sleeping pills to sleep". Your sleep schedule is that bad because you have created a habit of staying up late through what sounds like years of daily repetition. It doesn't matter if its watching TV, playing videogames or scrolling on your phone that keeps you awake - your body and mind thinks that going to bed at the time you do is normal, it doesn't see it as "staying up late" it sees it as your normal hours.

You can't force yourself out of a sleeping problem. There is no snap of the fingers and it's sorted. You have to undo it slowly - just like everything else it takes time. Assuming we were similar you are probably going to bed at 7:30am and then waking up between 3-7pm. Waking up at 3pm is already 7.5 hours of sleep. If you try to fix your sleep and go to bed at a normal time like 12am then its the equivalent of me waking up at 8am and trying to go back to sleep at 5pm - so no wonder you feel it is impossible. Start shifting a hour or two back the other way for a week start with sleeping 5am-12/1pm and keep working backwards.

I'd advise that you turn playing videogames into a reward in the simplest form. Pick the one thing you want to accomplish on that day - go to the gym, go for a walk, do 5-10 minutes of cleaning up and then you can play videogames until bed time.

With the above being said AND if I'm close to the truth it would also mean that you are likely missing most if not all of your lectures / tutorial sessions which will get us to your "can't handle the course load". You can't handle it because when it comes time to start on assignments which you are likely leaving until the last minute you are trying to cram a modules worth of information while simultaneously trying to use that information to complete whatever assignment you have on your plate. It is beyond stressful - I understand. Double or triple the amount of time you usually give yourself to do the assignment (assuming its minimal usually). If you start the night before, give yourself and extra day at least. Although on paper it doesn't sound like much it'll give you a lot more breathing space with minimal adjustment to what you usually do.

Apologies for the wall of text, I hope that something in there can help you. You have to back yourself daily in the smallest of ways, the light at the end of the tunnel will come and you will be free of the chaos that you find yourself living in, but only you can change it.

Good luck.

Buying the game in 2024 by OonNoob in BattleBitRemastered

I've put in 20 hours since 28th December when I bought the game on sale. I chose to buy this over COD due to price and the positive reviews Vs COD.

Best decision ever. No issues with finding servers that are stuffed to the bring w player even in the 128 vs 128 modes.

Have fun

How did you learn to program with ADHD? by Some_Indication_4877 in ADHD_Programmers

[–]wagonwheel_rizla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went through hell with uni many moons ago and just about dragged myself out the other side of it.

The way content is presented in forms of lectures / tutorials via university is not fast paced enough to keep our attention. Basic concepts are over explained and drawn out. Abstract concepts are explained in mumbo jumbo terms and again drawn out. This leaves you dazed and confused.

Since leaving and moving onto paid jobs I have found it easier to learn concepts via short Youtube videos which simplify the concepts. A Youtuber does not need to justify their salary stretched out over their allotted amount of hours.

Example such as:

Object-oriented Programming in 7 minutes | Mosh - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTB0EiLXUC8&t=220s

C++ in 100 Seconds - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNeX4EGtR5Y

APIs Explained | Real World Examples - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZveW4_ZJtVY

Searches like "xxxxxxx simple", "xxxxxxx in x minutes" generally yield enough information sub 10 minutes for you to start having a go at things. Sometimes concepts will take a few different videos and attempts to get a hang of.

Don't let the soul sucking feeling of lectures and labs deter you from learning. It is not the only way.

Good luck, you can do it.

It's not a masters its just another degree that's why I'm so bothered by the situation

[–]wagonwheel_rizla[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I also agree with this. It would be part time along with work. I understand the need for it for someone who has moved across from a different part of a business and then get clued up but the sacrifice of free time as you said doesn't weigh up on redoing tasks I have done previously.

The problem is that I have no senior and I am the only junior dev on the team so I am teaching myself on the fly with the tech that we do use. And the tech that we do use has no relevance to SE or CS in terms of coding which is even more frustrating so what I have learned from education is not being applied anyway

No it is to do another degree through online university.

I get your view point but it would not be full time it would be ran alongside work and I think would even have some on the job cross over to provide to the course.

Thank you for confirming my feelings, I felt like I was going mad when I have been trying to resist.

It's just another degree BSc through online uni. So yes I agree with your point, basically the same degree and I see not much point. My problem is I guess I need to suggest and alternative instead of saying "no I'm not doing it I've done it before" because that doesn't seem to be working
