may be alternately not sequencely
idk how to use the verb bc my english is terrible tremendously
Hmm
provided answer code seems to work in A-B-C order
i dont know if 2 words has the same meaning
"alternately" goes from like A to C to B then repeats (i think)
"sequentially" goes from A to B to C then repeats
Ah
no, i think it is like goes from a to the middle of b n c
and then use c to move into the middle of a n b
c will move to position "4"
BxW did say at #python-discussion that the end scenario must be three letters next to each other
hmm
may be i'll use google translate the homework
it's more like "as short as possible" though
615 / 5,000
Translation results
Translation result
The game is described as follows: on the number line representing integer points, place three pieces at integer positions A, B, C. Two players alternate. On each turn, the player picks up a piece outside the other two and places it in some integer position between the remaining two pieces (do not place the piece in the position where the piece already exists). The game ends when three pieces stand next to each other. People want to know how long the game can be maintained for as long as possible.
Requirements: Input the integers a, b, c and print out as many turns as possible.
Input: 3 integers A, B, C
Output: as many turns as possible
uhm google actually translate better than me
A little bit weird that the problem statement didn't really specify what piece order, it only says "a piece"
But
uhm may be a piece is the input
outside the other two
that makes no sense
we will input the piece of a b c
and then python will show us what is the highest turn of the game
I think it takes the most distance between two of the three "points"
i want to understand how does the answer work in math
uhm how does the code give answer
I think cereal might be typing an explanation
sum of distances of segment AB, BC, and AC
subtract maximum distance
subtract minimum distance
subtract 1 from the remaining distance (the middle one, neither the greatest nor the least)
that's the answer for some reason
so it just gets the middle distance
and subtracts 1 from it
this homework will take a lot of time
i wish there is a youtube video explain about this clearly
The subtraction of 1 is because in, for example, segment AB where A is 4 and B is 9, you only want to take "the amount of numbers in between", which is 4
A B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
^ ^ ^ ^ <-- 4 numbers
But the absolute value of 4-9 (in alphabetical order) gives 5, 1 above the needed answer
so this is code that should output the same answer ```py
a = int(input())
b = int(input())
c = int(input())
dist_ab = abs(a - b)
dist_bc = abs(b - c)
dist_ac = abs(a - c)
if dist_ab <= dist_bc <= dist_ac:
middle_dist = dist_bc
middle_segm = "BC"
elif dist_bc <= dist_ab <= dist_ac:
middle_dist = dist_ab
middle_segm = "AB"
else:
middle_dist = dist_ac
middle_segm = "AC"
print(f"Segment with the middle distance is {middle_segm} with distance {middle_dist}; answer is {middle_dist - 1}")
I'm wondering why the middle-largest distance, though
Sorry, it's been a while since I've studied lines and line segments
same i don't do geometry
UH, i didnt know that the abs stands for absolute
I think I got the answer to my question lol
i didn't know that we can use {} to put the numbers inside string
noice
thank you so much
Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.
>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."
Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.
this si cpp;
so cool
although i didnt understand how the homework work i learned manythings
absolutely not regret going here
why is this happening? ```

Segment with the middle distance is AC with distance 21; answer is 20
(22-1) - 1?
yes but how is the game doing it step-by-step
smaller example ```

Segment with the middle distance is AC with distance 5; answer is 4
I think I figured out the explanation, but it may take a while to type
ok
oh wait ```

i want to go WC
VC (voice chat)? I unfortunately don't have a microphone
so "outer" thingy as in "there's no space between this letter and that letter"?
I think in a situation like: ```
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Both A and C is in the "outer", just in different contexts: A is in the outer of __`BC`__ and `C` is in the outer of __`AB`__
so in both cases either one of them can move once and solve the thing, hence this? ```
.\test.py

Segment with the middle distance is BC with distance 2; answer is 1
Yeah
no WC means rest room
so for A B C 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 it goes like this i think ```
INIT
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
MOVE 1
B A C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
MOVE 2
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
what are you guys getting confused about?
i think i understand why it has to specify "as long as possible" now
we're getting confused about how does the python code actually work in math
why it gib answer
for "as short as possible" it's the minimum of the distances minus 1
Two people in chat typing an explanation 😄
say the three points are ABC in that order
so you get three distances AB, BC, and AC in unsorted order because you don't know which is which
AC is AB+BC, which is always going to be the maximum of the three distances
once you pick a segment as the inner one, the optimum method to maximize turns would be to place it next to one of the boundaries and inch towards the other one, and that'll take segment_len-1 turns
so you want to pick out of AB and BC the maximum length to maximize the turns
to get max of AB and BC, you get rid of the maximum of the three distances, which will always be AC, and the minimum, which will be the shorter of the two segments, and you get your max segment, and you subtract one from that to get the answer
i completely got it
uhm, my note says:
k = max(A,B,C)
P= min (A,B,C)
if A!= k and A!=P
print (max(abs(A-k), abs(A-P))
that's checking if A is the middle one and if it is then you know the other two segments are PA and AK
yes
Hmm, my explanation is getting very long so I'll only mention that we get the middle distance instead of the smallest and largest ones because the largest one is the entire ABC line (which we don't need) and the shortest one is not the longest way to play the game (and so we also don't need it)
me trying to understand 😵💫
i will work my brain as hard as possible to translate and understand your sentences
what is the middle distance?
In this example:
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
----- line AB
------- line BC
----------- line AC/ABC
BC is the one with the middle-largest distance
oh ye
ok
i think i understood
i really need your example like that because my brain will explode by dint of translating
But yeah, quoting Stickie:
so you get three distances AB, BC, and AC in unsorted order because you don't know which is which
Brain loading dramaticly
this problem is pretty interesting in the 4 point case
well, i need to study new words from your sentences first
let's use app quizlet to study vocabularies
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
``` so example this
longest (AB)
v-------------v
A C B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
^---^~~~~~~~~~^
| | middle (CB)
shortest (AC)
so we get the points with the shorter distance between, that is `A` and `C` in this example `A` is "outer", which means it's *not* in between `C` and `B` as you can see let's say we move `A` to the number *right after* `C`
C A B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
great! `A` is now in the middle let's take the points with the shorter distance again, which is `C` and `A` `C` is "outer", so it's *not* in between `A` and `B` as you can see so let's move `C` to the number *right after* `A`
A C B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
and we keep repeating this until we get the desired output:
A C B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
In this example: ```
A B C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
It is in "sorted order" because the letters from left to right read A-B-C, but it's possible (because of the problem statement) that it's not in A-B-C (that it's in "unsorted order"), like this: ```
B C A
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
This, from left-to-right, reads B-C-A
Sure
I also recommend reading this message by Cereal, since it explains the longest way to play the game (outside the math)
ok i learned by heart all new words
now reading your messages will be easier
i think i've understand for about 10%
i'll read more
i hope today i'll understand everything
ok, why does this relate to your code? i've read your code, it is like find the middle dist and then subtract 1
why does the middle dist subtract one relate to this hm? ill read a bit more
so basically that's the amount of points in the "middle" distance
oh, i think i've understood, the more middle distance is, the more step become
i think i've understoood
thank you so much
i've learned a lot from you today
in the example the points in the middle distance are C and B
A moves right in front of C, so that's the first point in the "middle" distance covered
C moves right in front of A, so that's the second point in the "middle" distance covered
(all the way until all the points are consecutive (beside each other
I think I explained why you need to subtract 1 in this message
now i'll try to do the code myself. if i have anything dont understand i'll come back
No problem
adding more points because I'm a math guy and we like generalizing
A B C D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
A: 0
B: 3
C: 7
D: 13
I believe the optimal move count there is 8, where you go A->12, then leapfrog AD all the way to C and then to B
so I think an algorithm for the general case would go
points = []
points.sort()
a, b, *_ = *_, y, z = points
print(z-a-min(b-a, z-y)-len(points)+2)
wow that does not format well on mobile lmao
that should work as long as the best algorithm is always removing the shortest segment on the sides and then leapfrogging all the way to the other end
I think Cereal found a way where you might not even touch D
Oh, I mean like this
~~```
A B C D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
B C A D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
C A B D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
A B C D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
B C A D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
C A B D
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
I just realized that we were assuming that the distance between points as we go from left to right increases
You're right
i don't like how the double spaces are in the numbers so ```

Wow your discord theme is so cool
i dont think any1 got banned for using betterdiscord anywy
True
Its against TOS and you can and it has happened lol

Because there used to be discord staff just chilling in the WorserShitcord server
Seems like a play on BetterDiscord, which she thinks is bad
Oh my God
I love it
I'm so glad that my meme has taken and someone actually got the domain
Well half meme half serious
they're against TOS
tbf, all they did was copy Discord's homepage and modify the content slightly
ehem i had 2 alts none of them got banned not even this main cos discord mods dont give a shit now
I wouldnt say that
i would ..
so we dont need to use
P= min (A,B,C)
if A!= k and A!=P
print (max(abs(A-k), abs(A-P))``` to check if A is in the middle, right? only ```python
dist_bc <= dist_ab <= dist_ac:```
already make sure A is in the middle?
to check if A is in the middle you do B < A < C
to check if the distance between A and B is the middle, you do that
So do we need to add them to the code?
Uhm i think ill add them

rust should go in the rusty tier
they just colored Rust so dark you can barely see it in the god tier :p
the ecosystem is pretty massive already though
although some parts are still in development
but most of the things that you might need or want to use are present in rust
the only thing missing is people actually using it :P
which is rust missing? the only one i don't have xp with is websockets
ah, you said "not in beta". tbh pretty much nothing is >1.0 lol
i never said anything was mature 😔
although, serde is pretty mature, it's on like 1.0.100 or something

@distant hazel should I sign that NDA
I need legal advice
what advice
file a suit wherever they're registered
it's probably Delaware
Delaware
lol
Can I sue them for not accepting?
at least it's not ohio
I don’t think I have a case
here's your case: 💼
True
you have a case now
LMAO thanks
💼
I’ll be back next week, for more stupid off topic things!
you might be interested to know (or you might not) that Delaware's only claim to fame is being "the first state". but this is a misleading statement, because what they really mean is "the first state to accept the current constitution". There was a first constitution that lasted for like ten years.
What was the previous constitution? The articles of confederation?
look like it wasn't good enough :P
under the articles of confederation, each state was as independent as they were when they were colonies, and then there was a legislature for the confederation that basically replaced the british parliament. "let's continue operating as we were, but we'll create a local entity to replace an entity that we could only interact with by boat."
i'm guessing that has to do with the whole "why would the earth revolve around the moon" deal
idk what that is
some guy wrote that as an analogy to the US being under the control of Britain, by size
the impersonal government, as it were
well, I think that's a pretty weak argument. Indonesia is the largest country that's only islands, and no one is saying that their capital has to be on the largest island for their government to be legitimate.
i mean yeah that's pretty much what the goal of the second(?) constitutional convention was
they thought it wasn't good enough, figure they'd improve it, and then decided they just needed to redo the whole thing
no indeed
but as history proves patriotism and logic do not always go hand in hand
I'm pretty sure Equitorial Guinea is the only country with both continental and island territory, where the capital is on an island. now I have to check.
Nope, there's also the UAE
Actually the OT name is appropriate too
anyway are we moving here?

It all started with someone asking about the legality of making a program to automatically turn off a computer
software seems hard to regulate
what counts as "malicious" or "harming"?
where would you draw the line?
the name is such a perfect coincidence that I'm suspecting someone rigged it except I don't think you can rig it
Depends if the person(s) affected is the person who paid you or not
I initially responded it would be fine if they used it on their own computer, but it could easily be modified to become malicious and deceiving to the end user
gave you permission*
does some friend making a "virus" and installing it on their friend's computer without permission "malicious"?
Malicious would be about intent I think. Like I intend for this program to do something unwanted without you knowing
Harming can be loss of data or the unknowing granting of access to a system
a very interesting stance
@lament frost said they were leaving, but anyway:
A jury is supposed to find guilt and innocence according to the law, not according to morality. If you ever serve on a jury, the court will go to great lengths to make sure you know this.
Whether the law was originally meant to enforce moral behavior or not is largely a question of perspective. Many laws are not about morals at all, but about the regulation of society, the economy, or protecting the interests of people who wrote them.
Question:
I drop a watermelon from a tower
I check that there are no people underneath and then release it, a passer-by then walks underneath and dies.
The law would count that as manslaughter which (although much lower than murder) is still a sentence.
That’s cause questions like “why did you need to drop the watermelon” “why didn’t you secure the drop site” occur
My plan wasn’t malicious but through negligence I cost a life
well then would you say a fake virus that shows a popup saying "dont install random shit" malicious/harmful?
Mmmmmm, I can see where this is going already
Or someone printing paper with your printer saying “secure your printer wifi”
where would you draw the line between malicious/harmful?
that was basically my whole point the whole time
@keen ibex what have you tried so far?
you dry the line at maliciousness and if there is harm done
draw even
i don't think "harm done" is the line
well then what do you classify as harm done?
does shutting down a computer without consent harm?
um ok
does wasting a user's time cause harm?
it could, if it causes harm
there is no strict definition for these sort of things in law. when the lawsuit happens, one side tries to show that there's no substantive harm. the other tries to show that there is.
the jury then decides
btw, motive will also matter. if someone meant to cause harm, i.e. if it was malicious, it will matter
@vale raven The issue I think is the interpolation rules. I think you will need to do a little bit of dynamic generation for your prepared sql statement.
SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE columnname IN (?, ?, ?, ...)
Obviously you don't know how many ?s there are (or maybe you do!)
if you have that sequence of values you're checking membership for you could:
placeholders = ",".join(["?" for _ in len(args)]
sql = f"SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE columnname IN ({placeholders})"
cursor.execute(sql, args)
If you wanted to even avoid that you could just create a temp table in the DB with single column, each row a value you are checking membership for. Then you could query that table in your sql. ... IN (SELECT * FROM temptable)
but the former is likely easier.

@sand inlet is that size with opts?
it's the size with a default release build
i know I've gotten a 14kb hello world with a little bit of #![no_std]
i'm currently googling config options that make the binary smaller
that made it 7 KB larger
huh, fun
and if i tell it to optimise for size then that variable changes nothing
(and also it goes down to 131 KB)
are you using build-std?
i am using normal std with whatever stable rust version i happen to have installed and just setting config values in cargo.toml
babe wake up new code golf just dropped
i know i could probably make it way smaller by making it no_std and various weird tricks but idk how to do any of that
if you have nightly then compiling the standard library yourself can do a lot
since you can optimize that for size and also remove the panicking machinery

kernels are bloated
just directly write machine code
fr
No because thats not possible without kernel, so you can just manually send signals to cpu with wires
so use MacOSX. It uses a mach microkernel
so bloated

more than 1 LOC is bloated

Is it a good idea to factory reset a pc to clear it of any problems and maybe make it a bit faster
Depends on the problem. When you "reset" windows it actually does fuck all
If you really want to start fresh, wipe the drive and reinstall windows
I mean my pc is custom built and has had some programs opening slowly lately idk if its malware but idk if i should factory reset
Even custom built, windows has a mind of its own. It tends to slow itself down and fill up with garbage
Full refresh is what I would do for myself
It's a lil inconvenient to start fresh, but i promise it's worth
Well all i use it for is gaming lol and some school work
But i remember most of my passwords
I dont got any important files on it
How do i do a refresh
Assuming you still have your windows product key, keep that handy. If you don't, download ProduKey, it can grab it from the registry so you can write it down for later. You'll need it later to activate the fresh copy of Windows.
Then grab a flash drive, and download windows media creation tool. Use the tool to load your preferred version of windows onto the drive.
Turn off your PC, plug in the flash drive, and turn it back on. It should then automatically boot into the flash drive, where you can go through the setup wizard, and most crucially, delete all partitions on your current drive before installing windows nice and fresh
If it doesn't want to automatically boot into the flash drive, start by just trying different USB ports. If that doesn't work, I think you can just unplug your existing Drive and then plug it back in once it's booted into the flash drive
But don't quote me on that
@soft stump i am going to bed soon tho, but I think this is everything you'll need
Good luck
This process is generally pretty hard to fuck up, but the great thing is that if it somehow does get fucked up and you can just wipe the drive again and keep trying
The more you delete and reset and reformat everything the better
@narrow dune moving to not clutter the thread more. https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses. if you look, theres AP CSA and CSP
in the past, there was CSA, and CSB, but they removed the latter
You’re contradicting someone in high school? Damn
I was in high school just a few months ago :P
I hate tornado and this shit legacy app so much
don't you know that HS teens know everything?
yeah, highschoolers are famously good at reasoning about stuff important to their lives
indeed
What's the average age like in this server?
38?
I imagined most here would be teens and uni students
too young?
according to the last survey, about 18
that's scary
i suspect it's much lower, but they only asked for "below 18" or something like that
Yeah that makes more sense to me actually
is discord accessibly by phone? that might explain it
How is 20 average scary
because it doesn't seem to be the case
especially that guy in careers 🥴 @tranquil iron
that means young and inexperienced folks are even younger and less experienced folks
erm, are guiding
depending on what you mean by "guiding" it's not necessarily an issue ¯_(ツ)_/¯
though the server tries to make sure channels like #career-advice stay factual and helpful
Yeah guiding what
it's like when I was listening to my 15 yr old niece and her friends giving each other relationship advice. it was just lol.
but I agree with public_static_void that it doesn't seem like the avg age is only 20
Guiding in terms of sharing technical advice?
i suspect it's much lower, only they didn't collect exact age for under 18yo
oh my
Does it seem like it's higher or lower?
way lower
Yeah why would anybody come to discord expecting any real guidance
yeah, it's filled with python-year olds
Lol
I mean, plenty of people do and plenty of people leave with said real guidance
my impression is that the avg age of those asking questions is very young but the avg age of those answering questions is older. but that may be my built-in biases.
is that unreasonable? discord isn't just for video games anymore
A ball python will live anywhere between 20 and 30 years provided that the care is good.
this explains so much; I'm just going senile
that's also my impression
That's a reasonable generalization to make
SenileReptile
actually rhymes
🤨
Maybe still in egg
i think every animals with a brain suffers from dementia at some point, alheizmer no
if we want to define dementia as the degradation of brain function
what were we talking about, again?
Yes I know someone who is writing about that exact topic for his term paper for sheep
So the study is if environmental predation, stress cause brain function degradation in prey
youd think theyd get used it by now
I'm turning 20 in a couple of months 👴
So like, you going to invite me to your python themed birthday?


Unfortunately the list of people I know IRL that can code in Python are either colleagues or teachers lol
I have no one that knows python IRL
For some reason i havent seen another programmer that uses textbased languages before, ive only seen programmers in my HS that use UIs to program but they dont really like programming
Dragging elements isn't programming.
well it's called "block programming"
stuff like scratch
That I can agree on.
Not that old .. happy birthday soon
As a Systems Developer Intern, you will assist the IS organization in the development of a software application that will be utilized as an informational chat tool.

😬
Yikes
But if they have ChatGPT why do they need to hire a developer? 
yes I'm a developer, I manage 1000 chatgpt instances
I would be too distracted messing around with chatgpt to get code from it even if it was good

🇪
was gonna pick a unused ot channel, but since you're already here: @grave cove what server does your :birdwave2: emoji from?
i really wish discord would let you tell like they do when they're by themselves

Private server it seems like
@carmine apex found another of the same emote from a different server : 
This one is public
well that's another emoji server i'm in, along with fir's. dumb discord trying very hard to make me buy nitro so i can use them here
it's certainly better than shenanigans's terrible dogwave emoji
Whoa whoa @vale raven
Me personally
if i was you
i wouldn't let that one slide
je ne regrette rien ||(I regret nothing)||
Fir's Twitch Community?

yup
Pretty cool emojis they have there 🙂
i thought fir was the name of the dog
The name of the dog is hsp
no way
how many dog programmers do we have
2
"There once was a dog named hsp
And then one day he died
The end"
I am Plato
replace dog with doggo for iambic pentameter
sadge
sup
a g l e t dont forget it
no
yeah my high school barely has any programmers
or quite frankly, anyone who even is remotely interested in finishing school
kinda common
my hs didn't teach programming
it taught me poetry
and williamshakespear ahh
quality education 🙄
oh and can't forget about learning ww2 for the 100th time!!
it's ok
now u are tripping
big time
for anime it's revolutionary
but comparing to nonanime, I agree
mid
omg i fucking hate poetry
its all schools rage about
like some fancy words together??? i dont get it
learning about poetry / art and history is more important to the economy than a scientist, engineer, doctor, etc
frfr
there are better animes imo
complete /s
frfrr
they need to stop feeding that garbage
English is important but 4 years is arguably overkill
it actually is if it's ur primary language
but what's worse isn't that but the fact that we learn poetry
I rather write technical reports
or make it based on ur interests. someone interested in mathematics will gain nothing learning poetry
yeah fr
all i really care about is english in how to write quality essays, convincing skills, real life actual shit
no poetry or shakespeare or whatnot history events
bu
but
we need to start focusing on technology and math more
its like the school is trying to deliberately push you down to force you into shit that you hate
yeah
it's not even enjoyable
poetry and art is so subjective
and specializing in something subjective is quite not what this world needs right now
yeah
need more doctors and scientists
who dominate tech
if we focus on AI and shape it to a really great potential ->
trusting AI to build our infrastructure will be far more safe and reliable than any human
chatgpt is just the beginning
yea
and tbh language too
i hate taking language
like its fine if u wanna learn it but
dont force it
only really need to know one
unless it's obscure
but English isn't
English is literally the universal standard
ya
Thank you for letting me know
Yeah, I'm gonna need you to take that back 
Can relate
Most students in my HS dont really care about their education from what I've seen
but terminator..
@ashen ridge this is what it looks like for me when someone makes a new post btw
Weird. I don't get that on my end sometimes
It's sort of been the opposite where I'm at
People being fairly invested in their education
update your discord
hi
This server's picture and valentines
pink is such a beautiful color
mhm
No
just wait
just wait a few years feniks
What if I don't wait?
cat!
What if I stop it now 👀
Becauae
That makes you weak
Because
You can't survive alone
People need to know how to survive
🧌
Without that unhealthy hormone
wtf
Andrew Tate is in prison
and*^w t&t3
have never listened to that dude speak and i already know he isn't a reliable source for those stuff
I am a crazy human
sacred band of thebes was a military unit of 150 pairs of old dudes in love with younger dudes. they kicked ass all over greece.
no, i mean maybe u need to talk to someone about your feelings.
and why you think you're crazy.
no joy?
Because everyone says that I am crazy, re_arded, weird person
mhm
maybe you should change your mindset
because u look like you can do a lot of stuff if you try ngl.
I told everyone here
Because everyone asked me about my mind.
Teachers, parents, psychologists etc.
My parents are calling me like that
oh shit
And therapists
???
Yes
(this sucks)
Teachers don't count
I bet that every teacher calls their students like that
Almost every
Today my friend beated me up in school because I said that love is disgusting to me
He put a weird mask on his face
Looks like terrorist mask
And then he beated me up lol
in what kind of a toxic community do you live 💀
He asked me
Then I told him
I need to be honest
Idk
trick people
I can
and also humans are social creatures... you'll eventually like someone
My mom taught me to not lie
EW
My rules:
- (I won't say this again because it includes self harm)
- I will live alone and I will die alone
- I need to be thankful
- Always be honest, DON'T LIE
- I need to apologize for my every mistake
- Never go to school trips
These rules are just for me
No one else


Yes
greek is a funny language
Greek is an amazing language
no lol
We NEED to WRITE A LOVE SONG FOR OUR CRUSH/SIMPATHY WHAT THE FU__
I don't like anyone
we did crap like this all the time in middle school
i hated it
even in high school
the teachers generally hate it too so just half ass it
Our teacher likes that for some reason 😐
Who doesn't hate it?
people in high school relationships, probably
i hate it too
like if i like someone i don't want the whole darn universe to find out
or if i like no one
Yeah, that's weird
Why schools are doing that???
some schools i guess
Also
IF I DON'T WRITE A SONG
I WILL GET F
probably some old dude's idea
I will get F even if I am not in love
Lord
That's unfair
That's like school is forcing you to do what they say in your private life
That's sick
But really sick
That homework is a disease
Also
If I like someone, then I would tell everyone about it.
That's my 7th rule
Don't have secrets
And I don't have secrets
I respect my rules
just write some shit literally lol
make it also extra juicy for a free A+
write it in a way that the no one's name would be there
My idea is to write something like love is toxic etc.
eh just do what they ask and take the free A
ye
not worth actually putting in effort or trying to put in what you think about it
chat gpt is your friend
albeit i'm sort of biased because i have a severe case of senioritis
i'm still looking for fucks to give
We don't have - nor +
I am not in USA
Also our grades are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
5 = A
4 = B
3 = C
2 = D
1 = F
I can't login anymore :/
I have some technical issues with chat gpt
i haven't used chatgpt so much i forgot about its existence.
Also my 8th rule is NEVER CHEAT
I never cheated in anything
Lol
I prefer to call it "using the resources at my disposal wisely"
I never cheated in tests, games etc.
robin can make you believe that white is black with his words 💀 (just kidding)
White is actually black
And black is white
Because white has particles of black
And black has particles of white
As same as everyone's life
You have white black and black white
That actually means something very important
⁉️
Your soul can be shiny
And your life can be dark
Also your soul can be dark
And your life shiny
Your soul and life can be shiny and dark too
i suggest you read a logic textbook
This is an intro
Why
it's interesting
What even is logic textbook
a book abuot logic
h
i'd say you're a bit edgy and not crazy.
You might want to look it up on urban dictionary
... No offense
not really the modern definition anymore
Actually like this
I was knocking at someone's locker
And saying this stuff:
HeLllLLoooo
AnYOnE THere?
You are niceeee
Knock knock
NICEEEE
WOOOHOOO
OMG THIS IS AMAZING!!!
SO COOL
HRUUU
NICE NICE
NICE NICE
WOOO
Any comments @grave cove?
That is ok to you????
Yesterday when I was alone at home
I was shirtless dancing and saying POTATO PUDDING!!!

Now tell me this is not crazy and weird
you can do better.
Three days ago I was looking at myself on the mirror
And started barking
Is that weird and crazy enough?
Now you know that I am not just "edgy"
Something's wrong with me and I don't know what
@grave cove @rough sapphire
Sorry for pings
it's a free country
if you're not hurting anyone you're free to do whatever you want
Oh wow
So no, I really don't mind
Do what makes you happy :P
Also we are not medical professionals here. If you are wanting to seek professional advice, this is not the place to ask
If you were worried about other's perception or opinion of you
it's nice to be happy
indeed it is
I am not looking for help lol
I am not happy with myself
Because I am too weird
Who barks at themselves?
Who is shirtless dancing and saying "POTATO PUDDING YUM YUM"
Who is talking to school locker in that way?
Again, I don't think we are equipped to answer for you
I know
Then can you please discuss it somewhere that can handle it appropriately?
I just want to introduce myself properly
So people won't say wrong stuff about me
being aware of something is not approval
People don't believe me that I am very weird
So I need to prove them
Many many people tell false stuff about me
that seems like a separate issue to me
Oof
I don't think you need to prove anything to anyone
Like brad mentioned we're not equipped or qualified to deal with issues such as these
Oh these are not issues
I think that's pretty funny
I am happy
But I am not happy because I am different
With my weird behaviour I am happier
Because I do lots of weird stuff
You do you buddy
mhm.
i feel like the tiktok zombie virus is spreading.
covid isn't the only virus.
i never liked the idea of tiktok
or even youtube seems corrupt
My life is like a dream when I am weird
W king
I've never used tiktok
?
is this bad?
Nah
👍
It's not -11 hh
It's ∆11
AGH
I AM WEIRD AGAIN
I usually spend like 3 h on my phone whole day
On discord I spend like a hour or two
And then I put it on charger for rest of the day
When applications are still opened 💀
So technically more time is spent
Wow
Still a lot
well I improved at least
I used to lose sleep and be on my phone not exercise
eat junk
i still do but less
I did a thing!
u working a full time job there
how is that even possible bruh
Mfw on a Monday
theirs was 11 hours per week, and you got more a single day? sheesh
11h daily average
oh criminey. i do see they got almost 15 on friday, though
mf a screenager
i sleep with youtube on, thats probably why
that's unhealthy
my bad
hell naw dawg
bro watches yt shorts 
i spend less than 1 hour on my phone in a whole week
i only use it for phone, apple pay, text, photo and ride share bruh
real programmers carry around a computer
huh?
im trying to say that no matter YT shorts, tiktok, insta reels
it all fucks you up at the end of the day
huh?
delete the stupid scroll shit and pickup a mechanical keyboard
let me know when you can fit your mechanical keyboard in your pocket
and has a screen
and weighs less than a pound
Sure thing let me just pull up my typewriter
Trying to say that, instead of being addicted to social media for it to fuck you up, stop using your phone for social media and start using your computer more believe me you wont regret it
I dont do much yt shorts anyway
They always seem to devolve to either andy tate shit or minecraft vid reddit stories
🤔 and that changes what?
and what would you use it for lol. watching youtube?
I like social media
i don't like social media. unless you consider discord one
I get to escape from the reality of living in london
tbf without my phone I'm dead
even 2 hours + without my phone I start getting withdrawal shit
that's definitely unhealthy
Being good at programming won't matter when you end up with severe health problems
well idk about severe health problems
new book came today 🥳
is this a problem that comes up in the industry 😦
i've noticed myself doom scrolling a lot lately
less attention span
do you like it
your hand?
i'm just messing hahaha
hitchhiker's thumb 👎
left side of laptop: 2/10
teal thing in background: 4/10
wooden thing on the left, great taste
lol
haven't heard the term hitchhiker's thumb in my life LOL
had to look that up
i don't even have it according to google!
i guess i do, idk
lol
if you stick your thumb up and it isn't pointing up, then you have it
yeah my thumb nail is leaning back to a degree
Calling, texting, zoom, basic web browsing, camera, etc. not whatever social media crap
And I still own a iphone 7 just because I barely use it
I mean… , YOU are the one who can take care of YOUR body.it doesn’t matter if you are a programmer or not
there's nothing wrong with spending all day on ur phone
why is that better?
YouTube is better than Twitter and knstagram for sure though
especially if u watch tutorials
or documentaries
educational stuff
even sports is chill
WHAT IM SAYING IS THAT TIKTOK IS A BRAIN EATING PLATFORM
@stiff galleon how far along are you in your Python journey
I already got a job
that requires extensive experience in python
I started doing contests and such
I only cry a few times a day
I'm up $1k today because market is doing better..
cool that you are doing good
not good
better but not good
I am very sad
I got job offer, market doing better but I want more yk
Woahhh same bestie
I'm on the home stretch
3 more months to go
Thanks. I can use this information
Yay for my future home office space. ❤️ Plastering done so smooth it could fool one for a painted wall
My FIL-electrician is on the phone, I want to show him the photo and tell him how the electric boxes half full of plaster XD
you're off in April?
more like 3 and a half
how did apps go
most of my colleges still haven't gotten back yet :(
didn't EA or ED?
EA for Georgia Tech but didn't get in there unfortunately
That's the only college that's gotten back
¯_(ツ)_/¯ that's what happens when you don't EA lol
fair enough
crying of joy
yeah yall are still young and have a lot to learn
real stuff begins in college
and real real stuff begins after college
Yeah, wait til you learn that life pretty much only gets worse 😂
fr
But youre ✨independent✨
it's only fun being independent if you aren't broke 🥲
Im guessing most working professionals in the server are not in fact broke
aren't you like 21
yup, getting old!
Most people who are independent are professionals are they not?
tiktok, instagram, and facebook
YESSS
I FINALLY WROTE A "LOVE" SONG FOR HOMEWORK!!!
If that 21 is in decimal and not hex, then no
Wanna hear it? (It sounds much better on our language, but I am gonna translate it to english)
Warning
You all probably going to hate me after reading it
not really
So who wants to read it
yes really
Here is my "love song"
I want to destroy love
Because at the end I will die alone
I think that is poison
And I want to end it
For me that's disgusting
And so boring
Sounds better on my language
Rate it please
Sounds like someone got broken up with
very edge
