*fistbump* slovak bro :) it's a weird design tho

While I'm at it... If you try "i++" it tells you that you probably meant "i = i + 1" so it knows what you want to do then why doesn't it just do it

I recently bought m.2 ssd (520GB) was planning to buy 250GB but my C was around 300GB and my budget permitted it. Currently I have around 140GB of C filled by VS exprees 2015, atmel studio, matlab, gimp, inkscape, fusion etc. those are probably the biggest programs. Can't you save for a little while and get 250GB m.2?

@Bennerant I have a theory about that actually... Matlab started as a tool for matrix operations and they are indexed from 1 because mathematicians, on the other hand C arrays are ultimately pointers and therefore the first item is at ptr+0 aka index 0... It might be only an observation but still kinda interesting

@waruj1m I would lie if I said I didn't think about it, but ~50€ for something I can't really imagine how I would use is a bit too much

@Drillan767 well at least here university is free if you pass all your exams and stuff... I am fortunate enough that the people here are awesome but it's not the school assignments and stuff that teaches you, it just introduces principles and gives you an idea of how some things work, it's what you do outside of school that counts...

Lately I've been thinking that the degree only gives you some kind of credibility in the field, but in the end it's the real world experience that sells you. Where are your achool mates recognized? Among teachers? Well tough shit that doesn't mean anything. Yea they might get hooked up with some work from them but there's only a few places. You on the other hand have a real company and experience backing you up. I've learnt a lot more at my part time dev job in comparison to school.

Every day

@yendenikhil yo thanks

@1989 well I use it only as a messenger, but I know I have people there who truly mean it, can't expect them to remember when I have my birthday

@1989 well outside of family people wished me on Facebook, where I made the birthday public this morning, well meaning wholesome people but if it wasn't for the facebook no one would know not that I expect it tho

@paedub bro that sucks too

Hello :)

This. You learn much more by actually solving a complex problem compared to working on exercises which span 50 lines of code at most. My first programming course was like that. Four complex but not too difficult projects. We still had a final exam that was practically coding on paper but after those projects I didn't find it too difficult. We had to get a certain amount of points from the exam but that was because the lecturer did not have any guarantee that we actually worked on those projects. Anyway who didn't work on his project had probably zero chance of passing the exam. In my opinion good system.

@ewpratte
try
{
Project.Include("Friends");
}
catch (NoFriendsFoundException)
{
Project.MakeFriendsInProject();
}

@aalleexxaa haha sounds nice too :) I ate virtually nothing today so I am very thankful for visual studio's autocomplete functionality after these dark beers :D

@aalleexxaa as promised the second one is for you, cheers... Also you might not find this one expensive but if you consider I can get half a litre for 40 euro cents and this one is 1 euro for 0.33 litre it's a hit for a poor student

Well depends wether you teach somewhere where people speak really really good english. I got the joke but it would never occur to me in the wild.

Beer, good expensive one

Try looking into 54321 rule

It's totally fine, but I always found cooking somehow relaxing. It is still technical in a way but also provides space for a little creativity, I wish I had more time and opportunities to cook, it takes your mind away from computers for a moment. At moments like these I sometimes think of solutions to problems actually.

yea the worst is when the test uses that stuff, some programming classes are a joke at my uni

I am a member of local organization for space activities so we usually have a tent at science fairs and tech fairs and it's so encouraging to see kids and younger folk be truly passionate about science and technology. Also makes me worry because they are all like three times smarter than me :D

@DuckyMcDuckFace yea it wasn't meant in any kind of negative way I just wanted to point out something that exists and there's probably a lot of people who feel that sometimes :) this community is really great

well it is that community aspect, on the other hand I sometimes restrain from commenting because it kind of feels like there is already community of people who know each other

SATA... I'm not entirely sure what nvme is tho... I grabbed crucial mx300 since I had a free M.2 slot in my laptop it installed Windows in like half an hour, and I thought win10 was fast at 2 hours on hdd before
