    @theScientist @ewpratten Out of curiosity, is there a reason why C in particular?
  • 2
    @Atlas117 because it's fun. Although I think starting with python was a good choice

    Don't install that keylogger you 13 year old little shit. Pranking the bully wasn't worth it. If you're still carrying out your little prank as the idiot you are, then don't read his messages. You'll be disgusted and traumatized for life.

    Complete your unfinished personal project, because the same thing is a fucking big startup

    Be nice. Be appreciative. Be a TEAM MATE. You are not "the shit." If you think you are, that just means you're full of it. Listen to others. Don't take shit.

    Invest the time you use watching porn into constructive activities.

    Ask your parents for a good internet connection.

    There's this thing called Python, start learning it.

    There exist people younger than you who have gone way ahead of you. Try harder. You're not a prodigy because you did good in yesterday's test.

    The locality and place you live is shit. The world is way better than this. There are better tech out there. Don't be limited. Explore them.

    Yes, now as a "hybrid-user" (windows only for school, gaming and Adobe products) I need much more shell-scripting!

    Learn JS coz it's gonna explode.

    Learn design patterns for both OO and functional programming. Languages and frameworks are irrelevant.

    @silot mind if I ask for any introductory recommendations? Any resources on this topic you found particularly useful learning?

    For not commenting
    For no documentation
    For thinking I'll do it later
    For your naming of stuff

    Nothing. Altering past might not be good.
