@rookiemaverick haha yeah

@Charmgoggles yup, and 500. There will be new 500 and 2000 rupees notes in circulation instead. Nobody knew about it, talk about a late change in requirements

Thug life

No but I mean, why aren't IDEs dark by default? Shouldn't the devs creating the IDEs know that? The recursive situation here confuses me

It's never too late! Good for you, all the best!! 😁

Oh man I feel like I just watched a feature length film in 10 minutes. I'm so glad it had a happy ending, and this community is amazing!
(Ps this would totally make an awesome niche movie, all them plot twists damn. @dfox and @trogus if you're planning to expand into the movie business I mean...)

This is the most satisfying tree I've ever seen

This is the reason I love devrant, there are people actually discussing the possibility

@ishankothari this reminds me of the email your whole department got once xD

94 instead of 100, ahaha
My university is infamous for giving marks that are completely random, I got 57 instead of 100 in a C++ paper once. Centralized corrections different facilities across different cities don't even allow any of us to get it corrected in person.
I've accepted that I can't change it and that I'm not going to bother about my marks anymore, I find that works better for me than stressing out :)

i'm sorry but did you just describe utopia

Maybe just save all the links in a single text file? Or Google docs, even better. Not cluttering your desktop and you can open it anywhere.
I think saving them for later is better than what I do, which is go ham in a depth-first article hunting situation and end up having spent 5 hours doing nothing productive.

If I may just #goals

@Larsg310 let me help you out: you're complaining too much xD My 60gb per month of 16mbps ran out and my connection is now 512kbps (yes, kilobits) for the next couple of weeks. Sometimes when I'm lucky, it goes up to 1mbps.

Additional thought, if your class is like most classes I know, then there are a few select students who are either extremely good at programming already or are super quick to grasp concepts. Maybe you can take these students' help to create the abstracted thing I spoke of, or modify something like Karel. Not sure how well this will go over with the other students, but it'll make these ones feel less bored or like "gods among mortals" (which is a situation I see a lot)

A few thoughts.
1. The Stanford intro to Java course I saw (CS106A) used a game situation called Karel where most of the functionality was abstracted, and students just had to use the methods to make this game character move and stuff. It was pretty cool, so maybe you could give them "fun" assignments where something cool is entirely implemented, and they use that to learn the basics of loops and all that

2. A college seminar I was organizing once found great success in giving students a chocolate bar when they do well. Bribery, basically. I've seen online courses also handing out pillows and candy, maybe you could find some economic bribe

@zfor I mean could this theme have anything to do with that
I've been brainwashed by mom-science and I don't know what's real anymore

Just curious but what power glasses do you wear

@Aethiris ~~diplomatic dev silence~~

@binarybaba meet @ishankothari
You two would terrify the world (see what I did there) (I'm not racist I swear that was just because you already did the thing)

@binarybaba ooooh that went to a dark place /real/ quick

@binarybaba also your username is dabomb

This is inspiring me to change my username

The comments on this post give me hope. Welcome, new blood!
@ishankothari hope!

@Marnsghol I think you could maybe be an English teacher, if you were looking for a part time job. That was some A+ reading between the lines 👍

This is completely irrelevant but your post made me realize that emoji can be in tags

@Scrumplex hasn't someone made an unofficial one? I feel like I saw it shared by devRantApp on twitter or something

@geronimo meta devrant community is the best 3-word story I've ever heard

Don't know about the companies but the colleges sure don't teach it very well. My guess is that it depends on the company.
