So is it agreed that this is, hands down, the best way to learn to program?
>>54803052
Yes. Absolutely.
>no c++
>>54803052
to grasps like the super super basics it's alright, at some point you're going to want to maybe pick up a book and work through as much of it as you can (no copy-pasting). make sure you really understand what you're typing in. screencasts are great too.
once you get basic understanding of things like data types, variables, control flow, functions/classes/methods then you should pick some toy programs or problems you have and then try to solve them with the language of your choice

So I think I should start getting into pc gaming, after having loved console gaming for long i feel i should step up, but whats a good and standard price i should spend on a pc? Like theres so many options and prices I dont know where to start, is it worth it paying more then $1500 for slight graphics improvement and whats the graphics card i should start with. (21/m on a budget)
What games do you play/plan on playing
I want to get into CIV but prodominently A list Titles
>>54803017
A thousand will probably satisfy you. You won't max everything, but you're coming from a console, so it'll already be a step up.

>Be as proprietary software-free as you can
I agree.
>FreeBSD on your computer
>Cyanogenmod Nightly on your phone
If you wanti to be as free as possible, you can do better.
My setup:
Desktop: Coreboot/FreeBSD
Laptop: Libreboot/OpenBSD
Server: Libreboot/FreeBSD
Router: OpenBSD (no BIOS, just U-Boot)
Phone: Replicant
Excellent thread
>>54802313
>replicant
Kek. I admire your Stallman levels of idealism, but last I checked replicant only worked on 3 y.o. Phones, and no WiFi, GPS, or any data above like 3G worked. It's just not practical.
Just not subjecting your phone to Google is already a huge step. I'll take my gapps free cyanogenmod phone and standard Debian laptop.
>>54802313
>coreboot
It still contains blobs that can be used to fuck you over and exert control over your computer.
>BSD
Contains blobs as well and has nonfree software.
>Replicant
For now, I use a Libreboot Thinkpad X200 running Trisquel.
We had a course called Intro To Programming I. It was about C where we should have been able to make things like text based games and calculators by about week 6.
I was about 18-19 at that time and after about 3-4 weeks the courses completely crushed my ego and i started partying and stuff after i realized that i am not the "genius" i thought i was so i started to build a party guy persona instead of the smart guy. Fast forward about 6 years i started working with microcontrollers and all that frightening and hard stuff which crushed my ego back then seemed logical and obvious.
Is it possible that i became smarter at age 26 than what i was at age 19 or it is something to do with work ethics and similarskill that i had to improve on during the years?
>>54802278
You grew up. End of story.
You grew up anon, it's a common problem with high school kids who jump right away to uni, they get instantly crushed becase they were living on a bubble.
Similar happened to me.
Was supposed to make a calculator at age 14 and that made me give up on programming.
Recently picked it back up and now it wouldn't be much of a problem.
Is Gmail really the best email service?
Which one(s) do you use, and why?
I used gmail for work and home, a protonmail account for nothing really, and cock.li for the lols.
>>54802251
Gmail > Outlook > Yahoo > AOL
I use ProtonMail and I'd recommend it.
At exactly 9:05AM an OP made a thread on /b/ .This wasn't the usual type of thread you would see in that shit hole, like traps, r34, and rekt. This thread is completely different.
I have a miniscule intelligence, and I have no words to describe said thread. I'm only here so we may all find a solution. I will post screenshots.
What is this /g/.
Please help.

That's not how you use airbnb anyways. Just look at the map on fullscreen, set your budget in the filter, and choose the apartment that is in the most ideal place.

>notice that default search in firefox is changed from google to yahoo
Im not really complaining about the viruses, because it was my own fault, but why would the default search be changed to yahoo? Are they behind this? I cant see virus makers just changing that shit for no reason

To implement their own config files for your web browsing. Chances are they didn't give a fuck what search engine is used and just randomly put Yahoo.
What's the consensus on Discord?
I've used it when I'm playing games with a friend or two sometimes with the free servers they let you make. At first the servers were a bit touch and go but recently it's been working fine.
But I got thinking about it and how they are even making money off of the program. There's literally no way to purchase anything besides maybe a shirt or a hat from them. Is this a honey pot or some sort of botnet? How are they making money off of providing good quality chat and voice servers for completely free with no premium?
Still relatively unstable, friends and I get occasional disconnects a few times a week. Also owned by a turbo jew who is going to sell the service to gooks in a year or two, who will have no clue how to monetize it and will let it die.
VC funds are the only reason it exists, they have no solid plan for how to make money.
Mumble is free, open source, encrypted and painless to setup and maintenance is practically nil (if any). Our group has no need for Discord and none of us plan to ever switch over to it.
>>54801646
It's bound to go pay2use at some point. It's also a complete black box when it comes to security, and you have no way to know what data they collect from you, or how they handle it, and to who.
Lots of unanswered questions makes Discord a really shady solution. If you don't care about what happens to your data or your personal info, by all means, use it, it's free, and you have to pay for other decent options or stick to shit like Skype. If you care in the slightest, like you should, you should avoid it at all costs.
