@silver crypt I don't have much time to talk. I try to keep what I know by reading

Do you think you have a good knowledge of English?
I know you like to study grammar, but are there anythings you find necessarily difficult about it?
glass igloo
So for School I need to do a ‘presentation’ NOT a presentation but like an instruction guide. Does anybody have any idea what I should do I’m clueless.
Examples:
If you want to apply a face mask.
Step 1: Clean your face with water
Step 2: take the peel off the paper
Step 3: apply firm pressure to the mask on your face. Etc. But i don’t need to type this on paper or something I need to do it in real life and show the people.
You can also do how to make a swan with origami paper
You can literally do everything that has instructions with a length of 4-6 minutes
If someone could help me I would be so happy 🥺
Just like give me something to instruct about

I understand a lot when I read, but that's not reflected when I try to write. I have a hard time following the structure; it's not so flexible and many times I don't know where to put one thing or another when it comes to very long sentences @silver crypt

I totally understand that
I'm the same way in Spanish
I can understand, I can read, but I have issues writing and speaking

You can have conversations with a bilingual speaker
They'll teach you the words you don't know
It's good because it focuses on essential words youre missing
And also gives you an opportunity to use them in practice right after learning them

that conclusion doesnt make sense
gritty oriole
That's cause you are a tech nooby person, you need to open your third eye and get on the level
rain ermine
but the thing is im not such a tech nooby person
tranquil canopy
don't get too intimidated by it, you can get used to it in a few days
I used to just play around and mess with stuff at the start
rain ermine
its just i have never ever used editing softwares like those
tranquil canopy
and you also have youtube
gritty oriole
That's good, you can learn gimp and become a master
rain ermine
youtube is for vids n stuff
gritty oriole
Youtube is for learning
tranquil canopy
there are hundreds of thousands of tutorials and even short tips
rain ermine
severe vortex
use the select tool
rain ermine
hm ok
tranquil canopy
you have multiple ways of selecting things
tranquil canopy
you can use the resize one
to move things around too
if you click in the middle
severe vortex
not like in other programs where you can resize and move with knobs when you select something
tranquil canopy
yeah because
these programs work with layers
at the start you only have one layer
which is the whole image
you end up selecting things and moving them to different layers, or adding images to other layers
and then you move those layers around, edit them
severe vortex
I mean simple stuff you can do on one layer
rain ermine
i see
tranquil canopy
ok that's simple enough, you'll end up using two layers, you can just drag the images into the program. You should look up how to resize the canvas (your whole working space, the space that will be the output, the final image), how to adjust it to your images
you will probably end up shrinking the bigger image of the two, so you don't stretch the other one and it doesn't look ugly
royal parrot
Export as
rain ermine
wait nvm i fixed it
royal parrot
Were you trying to remove the background before? It looks solid enough that you might get away with using the Fuzzy Select
Maybe
Right-click the layer => Add Alpha Channel
Select the background
Hit Del
Then import the second image to a layer below this one
rain ermine
i wasnt trying to get rid of the background i think
royal parrot
Oh OK, nvm
rain ermine
gimp is hard to use 
when i press scale i cant go to a new layer
and when i achor it it disappears
royal parrot
Is it something copy & pasted?
rain ermine
yes
royal parrot
It will say "Floating Selection" in the layers list
Right click it => To New Layer
Then resize that new layer
rain ermine
what can i do to get rid of this blank space without cropping the pictures
the checkerboard pattern thing
royal parrot
Can't you just drag the top one down?
Or resize it, because it looks a little squashed
rain ermine
oh right
severe vortex
Yeah it would do no hard to vertically stretch the top one
rain ermine
better?
tranquil canopy
good job, you only have a tiny ~2 pixel gap between the two lower images
and another to the right of the top image
once you fix them you can go to image-> fit canvas to layers, and export it
rain ermine
ikr its annoying me
tranquil canopy
you can use the arrow keys if you want pixel accuracy
rain ermine
hmm
rain ermine
i cant move pixel by pixel horizontally
tranquil canopy
you could just cut the excess bits once all images are touching each other
select the thing you want to export and using image-> fit canvas to selection
echo mothBOT
1 press 1 pixel
tranquil canopy
if you do that, it doesn't matter if there's a tiny bit of an image going outside, it's like you are only taking a picture, the parts outside the canvas won't show up, and you don't have to stretch anything around, distorting it
rain ermine
the option is grayed out for me
tranquil canopy
there has to be a selection first, you can use box select
tranquil canopy
if you are done and happy with how it looks? you can go to file -> export as... and export the final result as a single image
(I recommend using png, since it's lossless, that is, things like jpeg compress the image a lot and it looks blurry and ugly, unless it's a picture of trees or something)
rain ermine
uhhhh
tranquil canopy
no need to touch anything lol
rain ermine
oh so just export
tranquil canopy
ye
if you use save/save as instead of export, what you are saving is the gimp project, so you can open it later and keep working on it if you want or it's something that will take long
tranquil canopy
no need, png is still lossless, the image will have every exact pixel.
what that does is just make the file larger or smaller, 0 means no compression, 9 means full compression. I think it's only useful if you are in a rush for some reason and want a big exported image right now
I'd always just leave it at 9, I prefer smaller files lel
tranquil canopy
if you don't want to keep working on that, yeah
tranquil canopy
especially the right one, look how it completely ignores the lighting/shadows
majestic
royal parrot
I'm sure once you get the hang of it you can do a lot better

Yeah don't worry, my sis chose her major weeks before starting uni 
severe vortex
I mean if you have an idea of what you want to do
start doing stuff related to it
but don't worry super hard about locking it down
You don't figure out what you want to do by thinking super hard about it you learn by doing things
split mauve
Yeah so far my choices are urbanism, psychology, or political science
split mauve
Not gonna lie it's hella wack
severe vortex
We know
At least those of us who subscribe to the gospel of urbanism
So many boomers seem perfectly content with living in a boring suburban hellhole
as my rent goes up
split mauve
I sometimes don't know how can people enjoy living in those hella desolate highway suburbs with nothing but detached houses with lot's of space of nothingness
severe vortex
I know right?
split mauve
Even the ultra rich suburbs here are rowhouses with a few informal businesses here and there
severe vortex
Yeah I love that
why not have a kiosco or two within a residential area WHY CAN'T WE EVEN HAVE THAT IN THIS DARN COUNTRY
split mauve
Though we could also do with more public transport that isn't just decent in 2 or 3 cities in the whole nation, and 6 lane avenues in residential zones
severe vortex
I mean if it's dense enough you barely even need public transit
I absolutely love how Córdoba is built
I haven't even had to take the bus
everything is so close
split mauve
The suburbs have decent density when it comes to grocery stores yeah, but when it comes to education, work, and recreational it's bus or car
severe vortex
Well you want the jobs to be concentrated in the city center
split mauve
Not to mention that the buses are always packed full with shitty schedules and tiny coverage areas
Well the thing there's 6 city centres here Xd
At least in the whole metropolis
split mauve
But the city centres aren't that much more dense than the suburbs, so you are as likely to have a job in another nearby municipality as in the local centre
split mauve
Pretty much xd, at least there's walkable cafes, grocery shops, parks, and a few restaurants here and there
but my school decided it'd be amazing to just cover 3 neighbors with buses, and the ones I could use that are not from school, take over half an hour to do a one way trip, that is if there's no delays or much traffic
severe vortex
Yeezus
split mauve
They could fund more lanes and coverage but all my classmates are rich snobby gated community teens so 
Don't get me started on the uni students
rain ermine
but cars exist
split mauve
Yeah, and they are one of the most polluting, inefficient, and costly methods of transport
tranquil canopy
cars are expensive and need space
if every single person in a metropolitan area had to use a car you would be stuck in traffic forever
severe vortex
To an urbanist, cars are the representation of all that is unholy in good urban design
split mauve
While buses can hold 50 people at a time, and only take the space of 2-3 people, imagine how much space would be needed for 50 cars
split mauve
Even diesel buses are more eco friendly per person than hybrids
gritty oriole
hahaha imagine that pupper, it would be a movie: The Day Everyone DROVE
tranquil canopy
lmao
celest bay
that's the entire west coast pupper
tranquil canopy
well but I'm taking reality to an extreme
severe vortex
That's the reality for most of the US
split mauve
L.A. irl
celest bay
again, that's just all of the us besides the northeast
and a good bit bit of them too
gritty oriole
Everyone at once, it just sounds apocalyptic to me
split mauve
That's all of the US except bits of the East Coast and a bit of San Fran and Portland
severe vortex

tranquil canopy
wtf
celest bay
except for a few places
rain ermine
oh well
tranquil canopy
do they hand out cars for everyone
split mauve
Yeah LA only has metros and buses, but only for the city centre xdd
rain ermine
what do i know
severe vortex
No everyone buys one
rain ermine
traffic is a problem
celest bay
no that's why people have no money
rain ermine
but people just build wider highways
tranquil canopy
lmao
split mauve
Wasn't there like almost double the amount of cars per people in L.a.
celest bay
am cri
severe vortex
@rain ermine Allow me to introduce you to Induced Demand
split mauve
No wider highways cause more congestion and displace thousands of people
severe vortex
widening highways doesn't work that's why cities don't really do it anymore
split mauve
Unless it's Texas
celest bay
people have multiple cars, cause if 2 people work at 2 different places they need 2 cars
severe vortex
the only solution is getting cars off the road
split mauve
motherfucking katy freeway
tranquil canopy
and cars don't just use highways, unless you are planning on demolishing everything and turning everything into a highway 
severe vortex
which is almost impossible because we've committed to car centric urban design
rain ermine
say wut
celest bay
that's what they did pupper. car companies worked to get cities to get rid of trolleys etc back in the day
tranquil canopy
just demolish every skyscraper, university and hospital
celest bay
they ripped the tracks out of the ground
tranquil canopy
wtf
severe vortex
Yeah
split mauve
Yeah car and oil companies bought the tram networks in L.A. and made them buses
tranquil canopy
ok that country is scary
severe vortex
we've known that car centric design is a bad idea long term
just there was lobbying
celest bay
it didn't happen in san francisco or the northeast or chicago though
split mauve
Oh boy wait till you hear about oil companies advertising as being eco friendly
rain ermine
so wider highways just work for texas
celest bay
so we still have subways and things
split mauve
No wider highways never work
celest bay
but we're the weirdos in the US
split mauve
The 23 lane katy freeway is a horrible monstrosity
tranquil canopy
abi stop being a weirdo smh
celest bay
tranquil canopy
celest bay
I like my weird public transport
rain ermine
idk if katy is near houston
split mauve
I think it was, I think it was Dallas
severe vortex
Houston is an interesting case because it has no zoning laws
split mauve
Either way it ended up causing even more congestion
severe vortex
but that just means induced demand can take effect faster
split mauve
It only works for the first few months and engineers like reporting it as working
severe vortex
widening highways encourages more development around them and encourages people to stop using public transit and take those highways instead
severe vortex
also people taking congested routes will start using that highway instead
celest bay
what reds wat
split mauve
But the months afterwards show worse traddic
rain ermine
the redcoats
severe vortex
so eventually the highway becomes just as bad or worse than it used to be
tranquil canopy
i'm being a mcarthyist
split mauve
Also increased maintance on roads
celest bay
ohhh
rain ermine
from what i see
tranquil canopy
nah not the lobsters
rain ermine
traffic is a 50/50 thing
split mauve
So basically more highways equals more maintenance costs, more pollution, more congestion, and displacement of people
tranquil canopy
i knew it was something with lobster lol, thanks I forgot
rain ermine
yes
celest bay
do you have trolleys or trolleybuses
rain ermine
NAH
split mauve
I am sure none do
celest bay
like busses that run on wires
severe vortex
SF has the cable cars
rain ermine
wtf no
split mauve
Oddly enough in our center we do!
severe vortex
but that's it
rain ermine
no
severe vortex
depends
split mauve
a tube
celest bay
light rail?
severe vortex
naw the only city with an underground is new york
celest bay
um
rain ermine
like this
celest bay
I fucking went into an illusion in boston then cause that shit is underground here
rain ermine
theyre everywhere in downtown houston
severe vortex
Boston isn't a city
severe vortex
severe vortex
Anyway
celest bay
also hot fucking take from a dude in cali
severe vortex
if you want a taste of near perfect city design look at Córdoba on google maps
celest bay
zero public transit ass cali
severe vortex
there's one highway
rain ermine
in texas there are busses
celest bay
it's a start
severe vortex
it's a ring road so it literally just exists to direct traffic that is bypassing the city around the center rather than through it
rain ermine
but only homeless people ride it
celest bay
why?
rain ermine
its all i see at the stops
severe vortex
there's a dense center where a huge percentage of the residents live
you can walk across it in around 30 minutes
all the jobs are concentrated there so there's a consistent flow of cars in and out each day
this allows you to design the surrounding suburbs better
split mauve
Also take a look at Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Oslo, Tokyo, and Singapore
celest bay
I don't get the stigma against public transit in the us
tranquil canopy
muh car
split mauve
Probably oil and car lobbyists propaganda
tranquil canopy
muh debt
celest bay
people don't ride the bus cause ew that's what people without cars go on?
severe vortex
Naw it's literally the residents
rain ermine
but abi
celest bay
you throw your headphones on and go
severe vortex
"Oh it's a waste of money this neighborhood isn't dense enough"
split mauve
Ironic that pre ww2 the reason to dismantle trams was "maintanance"
rain ermine
transit isnt statewide
rain ermine
oh
split mauve
And nowadays road maintenance, parking spots, and pollution causes many more costs
severe vortex
So it always goes "We can't build transit because it's a waste of money. The neighborhood isn't dense enough" -> "We can't densify the neighborhood because there's no transit. Traffic will get really bad"
rinse and repeat
You need to do both
at the same time
but since it's so hard to actually develop anything, especially in california
rain ermine
but that state is the richest
severe vortex
and since transit is managed inefficiently by a mishmash of agencies run by non-experts that have no teeth
it doesn't happen
rich just means that there's a lot of rich people it doesn't mean that we properly fund or manage our transit systems
split mauve
^
tranquil canopy
which state, if any, has at least somewhat decent public transport in the USA?
split mauve
Massachusetts I'd guess
rain ermine
||what about ubers||
severe vortex
also the infrastructure is expensive to build and hard to implement because our metros are already built up in a car centric manner
split mauve
Ubers most of the time are equally bad
split mauve
And most drivers don't even get paid a liveable wage
severe vortex
it actually makes traffic worse than it should
celest bay
NYC (not new york state though)
severe vortex
ubers tend to take risky moves that impede traffic
severe vortex
like illegally going to the side of the street to pick up riders
severe vortex
they also spend a lot of idle time just driving around
celest bay
it's not really a state thing
severe vortex
thus making congestion worse
rain ermine
so the more developed states
severe vortex
and they often aren't familiar with the area
rain ermine
where urban dominates
split mauve
Yeah
celest bay
the older states had time to get them in before cars is my guess. and being dense helped too
severe vortex
I mean even northeast cities are baby cities for babies
split mauve
Then there's Georgia and Alabama banning spending on public transport
rain ermine
WTF
celest bay
nyc's a baby city huh?
rain ermine
new york is one of the biggest cities in the us wtf
celest bay
have you been there at all?
split mauve
I guess Tokyo is a baby city too
severe vortex
in a country of 300 million people, how big do you expect the biggest city to be?
rain ermine
are you guys crazy
severe vortex
Tokyo is huge
celest bay
I'm contractually obligated to shit on nyc as I'm from boston but I'm about to leap thru the screen to defend them for this
severe vortex
don't get me wrong
rain ermine
Houston in comparison is a baby city lol
split mauve
Oh you mean compared to total population
rain ermine
severe vortex
keep in mind tokyo's metro has tens of millions
rain ermine
wow that is small
celest bay
greater boston is across 4 states
celest bay
might wanna look at density homie
rain ermine
8.6 million
split mauve
Yeah Mexico City is like 24 million and we have a third of the population of the US
Also depends what you classify as the boundaries of NYC
severe vortex
NY is the only city in the US that actually represents an ideal level of density
split mauve
if we strictly speak of the 5 boroughs it is 8 million or so
severe vortex
the rest of our major metros should be that dense
if you wanna live in suburbia you can
split mauve
But the metropolis extends far bigger than that and has a pop of 18-20 million
celest bay
"Boston has a density of 13,841 people per square mile (5,344/square kilometer), and Greater Boston is the 4th most densely populated region in the United States, after New York Metro Area, Greater Los Angeles, and South Florida Metro Area. Somerville, a city just north of Boston and included in its metropolitan area, has the highest population density of 18,431.6 people per square mile."
normal osprey
:ada:
split mauve
Yeah and so is Greater London xd, which ahouldn't be tbh
celest bay
I mean we're not number 1 but
normal osprey
Could you see that abigail ?
split mauve
Those densities are kinda misleading
normal osprey
look
severe vortex
yeah
normal osprey

celest bay
they're really not

if you go by city proper it's NY then SF
celest bay
still no pepe
severe vortex
then no other city comes even close
normal osprey
didn't you see the emoji T_T
split mauve
I'll show you a different density used by the OECD and show you how dense those cities really are
severe vortex
yeah and by my standards it's not insanely dense
split mauve
celest bay
wtf is dense to you
gusty ermine
Cincinnati lol
split mauve
Tokyo, Paris, London, Athens
severe vortex
london is eh
severe vortex
I guess inner london
severe vortex
Mumbai is a bit much
split mauve
No it isn't, look in the chart
severe vortex
parts of it
celest bay
buenos aires and boston are 13k/mile you buffoon
split mauve
Cities aren't just historical centres anymore
split mauve
It's like saying that Los Angeles is just the city centre, while excluding Long Beach and etc
celest bay
whatever their census used
split mauve
Or London is just the City of London
celest bay
and the same source as the quote from above
gusty ermine
Abi, Boston isn't a dense area, it's more of a sparsely spread city
celest bay
um
gusty ermine
Los Angeles is more dense
celest bay
no
severe vortex
I'm just saying if you visit CABA and then visit boston you can't say they're the same density
there's almost no suburbs in CABA
celest bay
la is more dense than us I said
gusty ermine
What's caba
severe vortex
The buenos aires metro consists of CABA, which is dense as fuck, and the surrounding suburbs in buenos aires province
rain ermine
how
last vault
Boston has a density of 13,841 people per square mile (5,344/square kilometer), and Greater Boston is the 4th most densely populated region in the United States, after New York Metro Area, Greater Los Angeles, and South Florida Metro Area
gusty ermine
And pretty sparse
split mauve
What boundaries are we saying is "Houston"?
split mauve
Because we can just take the historic dense centre and say that's all of Houston and discard the metropolis
celest bay
just read that
severe vortex
Anyway it's not even about how dense a city in its entirety is
split mauve
That's why it is important to note what are the boundaries of your definition of x place
celest bay
I FUCKING SADI
rain ermine
celest bay
i'm in pain
severe vortex
it's about where the density is and whether density exists to an appreciable degree
severe vortex
Ah don't you just love enclaved cities within bigger ones?
rain ermine
yes
severe vortex
The question was sarcastic
rain ermine
btw does will smith live at bellaire
gusty ermine
LA area is pretty enourmous if you count the other cities and counties neighboring it
severe vortex
It is
celest bay
boston didn't annex other cities
severe vortex
it's not dense tho
gusty ermine
Which makes it the greater LA area
celest bay
so boston proper is little
severe vortex
and the thing is having a ton of small municipalities around a bigger one is bad design anyway
gusty ermine
Wiki includes the small town of maywood, in the list
It's a small City in the LA area, pretty shitty area haha
severe vortex
those municipalities have residents who use the bigger city's services but don't contribute to its tax base
gusty ermine
Very dense I say
split mauve
Like Las Vegas
severe vortex
and a lot of the time those municipalities are very obstructionary
split mauve
Except Las Vegas is the bigger one but still
gusty ermine
Vegas isn't a good city for living in, apparently the only good jobs are working at a casino
severe vortex
Paradise is a tax dodge lmao
celest bay
wait hold up, your services aren't state level?
split mauve
Oh yeah Paradise that
celest bay
what the fuck
severe vortex
Whaddya mean
celest bay
they don't get state funding?
gusty ermine
I think the interstates are government level
severe vortex
I mean I'll tell you how it works in the bay
gusty ermine
The state highways are by the state
severe vortex
anyway I guess the main point is they are economically intertwined with the bigger city but not politically intertwined
celest bay
you don't fund normal roads via the state at all?
severe vortex
that means that they often have conflicting interests
celest bay
wat
gusty ermine
Oof I think people from LA and SF can relate to is the damn 101 freeway 😂
gusty ermine
Are you serious
severe vortex
is that a different freeway or something?
gusty ermine
Where are u from
celest bay
also the way things work here is by town. towns have their own government systems, their own police forces, fire depts, schools, etc.
severe vortex
no idea what you mean by "the 101"
celest bay
there's no county anything
gusty ermine
Do you live in san Francisco?
gusty ermine
Fuckn hell
severe vortex
lmao
gusty ermine
We have our highway talk here
gusty ermine
Even worse
gusty ermine
The 101 freeway is always packed here
gusty ermine
Is that the freeway that collapsed during 89?
severe vortex
the corrider that runs through all the major job centers on the peninsula
anybody who works on the peninsula takes 101
it's bad
unless they take 280
that's also bad
severe vortex
and of course since like half of the peopl ein the south bay work on the peninsula
cause fuck palo alto
gusty ermine
Everywhere
severe vortex
it gets bad
gusty ermine
Yup
severe vortex
I've visited LA
yeah it's bad
like where the fuck are people going at 2pm on a sunday?
why is there congestion at that time?
gusty ermine
Exactly lol
The 5 is pretty shit too, once you've past all the mountains to the north of the valley it's just plains and boring shit all the way to Sacramento (and shitty valley cities)
gusty ermine
It's very scenic
severe vortex
it's slower but worth it
gusty ermine
I had to go to San Francisco for a funeral and we took the 5 and some other retarded highway to get to the 101, very boring and sad, when we reached the 101 to Salinas there were mountains, hills, vineyards, it was beautiful
The way back was pretty neat too
Once in LA, it was all trash
severe vortex
I'd guess lmao
gusty ermine
We arrived at LA at around 9 I think? There was traffic in DTLA
severe vortex
It really do be that way
gusty ermine
On jah it do
severe vortex
Lmao
marsh linden
Will do when I get home hahaha
grizzled hedge
Loool
gusty ermine
I mean don't translate that only read the English text and you'll laugh
gusty ermine
Someone sent it in a group that I'm in
gusty ermine
The translator guy was too lazy to do his job
gusty ermine
😂

What's a domestic cup?
eager wagon
tranquil canopy
A cup raised in a home, as opposed to a wild cup
severe vortex
Gotta watch out for those wild cups
I once had to fight off a pack of almost 50 of them
tranquil canopy
if you ever find a cup that you don't own in your house DON'T POUR ANYTHING INTO IT, that's how they feed, you could get an infestation
gritty oriole
That's hilarious
tranquil canopy
it's not, they can kill

@torn moss I tried, but it did a pretty good job
torn moss
Sometimes google translate gets things right
severe vortex
It rarely gets subjunctive right though
mellow laurel
if you don't know one or two specific words go ahead and use translate.
But know if they're masculine or feminine, etc
tranquil canopy
i'd recommend using any dictionary
translators don't know context and may only give you one meaning
severe vortex
I use spanishdict a lot
it's great
Once you've learned spanish syntax you shouldn't be translating full sentences, just looking up the words and composing the sentences yourself
and spanishdict has set phrases as well
marsh linden
I've been fully converted to using wordreference
In terms of translations I think it's roughly on par with SpanishDict but its knowledge of phrases easily beats that of SpanishDict

aquí sí
se puso de moda python porque lo usan los bebés que no saben programar de verdad
no le tengo ni un odio, todo es pura coña, pero Java es mejor
real imp
No sé, a mi me parece que si se puede hacer lo mismo pero más fácil, es simplemente mejor
Personalmente no me molesta que programar sea más accesible
Si algo, es menos aprendizaje para mí xD
severe vortex
I would use wordreference but it's annoying that it doesn't automatically detect the language
Spanishdict is way more polished in that regard
You're right about the phrases though wow
Oh and it does automatically detect the language
nice

Python no es funcional y Python sí tiene clases, al punto que todo en Python es un objeto
los programadores de verdad saben Java
trabajar con Java es súper desagradable, ejemplo: https://github.com/EnterpriseQualityCoding/FizzBuzzEnterpriseEdition
entendería a cualquier persona que en su sano juicio se alejara lo más posible de ahí
severe vortex
Por el momento mi favorito es C
Es muy sencillo. No tengo que pensar de en que forma quiero hacer algo porque sólo hay una forma para hacer todo
Con java hay un montón de opciónes para cada estructura y para mi me resulta arrolador
mortal dagger
pucha, al menos acá, las empresas que usan Java tienen una idea muy "Enterprise" de cómo se debe desarrollar sofware entonces a nivel psicológico he visto que la gran mayoría sale mal de ahí
tienen malos horarios, exigencias absurdas y aunque el sueldo no es malo, sigue siendo un sueldo promedio
las empresas más "cool" en el sentido de que se preocupan de la salud mental de sus trabajadores que he visto, siempre han sido empresas con un stack tipo Ruby, algún framework de JS poco común o lenguajes no tan en el mainstream
esa es mi única gran bronca con Java y la razón por la nunca trabajaría en algo así

@past harbor hay clases en python
royal parrot
Nunca he aprendido el Python porque no me gusta la idea de espacios blancos como sintaxis. Quedo con C, la mejor lenguaje
Iba a aprender Rust pero soy demasiado flojo
ashen mist
Usé C y Python y prefiero python si quiero hacer algo rápido y fácilmente. No entiendo las quejas de los espacios blancos en python... No es nada difícil, y no hay que preocuparse por eso
sacred harbor
pues yo casi que si ahora alguien me llega a preguntar por qué lenguaje empezar, les diría que python
aunque no sé python 
para que aprendar a indentar

@past harbor Ni un solo programa me salio bien

Y eso

Me lie con como funciona .length en C++
para un ejercicio super basico
Luego habia uno de comparar vectores y sacar la moda y me quede sin tiempo e hice un bucle que sigo sin saber por que no funciono
Y uno de matrices que tampoco funciono bien no se por que
Aaaa
Pero bueno, se recupera a la proxima y ya

Bueno, no pasa nada
Así se aprende, fallando
Mi primera examen de Java a papel me salió fatal
