Best advice I can give to new programers:
* Dont be scared to write it wrong, you can always rewrite it.
When I code i expect to rewrite it.. i usually write a shitty version of the idea just to make sure the idea works then i rework it several times and consider the overall design before commiting. If yuo try to do it right the first time through you wont do anythijng at all, or you will come up with a perfect idea that the second you start to implement you realize doesnt work at all... doing it wrong is how you learn to do it right.
Trump was basically your slightly racist grandfather who is so old he thinks everything post 1980 is an abomination... just without the lovability of a grandfather.
You dont want him as president for sure, the guy yells at clouds and thinks climate change is a hoax, but he isnt trying to put black people in gas chambers either 🙂
@khird youve been doing an amazing job as moderator, thank you so much.
How americans handle every ideological position they have:
1) The thing is bad
2) Anyone who says the thing isnt bad is bad
3) any statement that makes the thing sound less bad is the same as saying it isnt bad
4) All statements that make the thing sound bad are good
5) We must make the thing sound as bad as possible to be good people
No this isnt a trick that is coming out of a hidden hole in the table. It is assembling this rod mechanically from pieces in the main body. Its kinda cool and a little surreal, I like it.
