Honestly I haven’t listened to anything past Donda. I love graduation and mbdtf, and Bound 2 and Moon still give me chills just for melodies. But I’ve still got Chance and Cudi so I’m good

Sorry I can’t actually answer your question, but in my experience, it’s hard to learn actual programming in a classroom type setting. I got a 4 year degree from a state school in computer science, and I’ve been working as a software engineer since may of 2020 (and a student contractor for 2 years before that), and I think 90% of my experience was obtained on the job.

That being said, I do think finding a tutorial online for the type of project you want to learn is a great starting point, provided you have the basic knowledge of programming concepts. If you don’t, I think w3schools is a great place to grab those. Private tutors or online classrooms are going to be expensive and the quality might not be guaranteed.

What I think you really need / want is guided, hands-on learning. Most languages and frameworks are free to download and use, and there’s lots and lots of tutorials out there. A great basic one for full stack engineering is a making a To-Do List (django python back end, and either react or angular front end is a decently easy framework). It’ll teach you basic front-end, back-end, and database concepts, and then you can play around with it whoever you want. I’d recommend uploading it to your personal github repo eith a README file talking about how to run it locally, so you can send it to possible employers. That’s a big thing that a lot of companies ask for in the interview process.

My company is basically 30 startups in a trenchcoat. The bulk of our my org’s application was written 5-10 years ago by like 4 dudes, none of whom work at the company anymore. Cowboy coding doesn’t come close. We have so much legacy code and I alternate between “how the fuck does this work” in an impressed way and a horrified way anytime I look at it

I wonder if they made more money from the $80 controller than the $40 game because of how cool the controller looked (in my opinion). I bought the controller knowing full well I had no intention of buying the game

$0 apparently. I used to love Kanye. I could mostly excuse his bullshit because he was just clowning on the black community, and as a member, I could ignore it. But when he went “defcon” on the Jewish community, I kinda had to take a step back. Not necessarily because of what he was saying, but seeing him on Alex Jones in that mask with the net and the yoohoo, I realized how actually insane he was. I haven’t actively listened to him in like 2 years, which sucks because say what you want about his mental state, the dude could make some good music.

I’m easily satisfied with life. I have a pretty good job and make pretty good money, good friends, and I have a beautiful wife, and that’s all I need. I’m not the ambitious type who needs to keep making more and more money. I don’t need the fanciest car or designer clothes. I don’t want to be famous, and I don’t have anything to prove to strangers. That makes it much easier to be happy, I think.

I know it technically is a movie about superheroes, but I feel like Deadpool doesn’t qualify as a standard “superhero movie”

I mean, he is almost 60? Probably just doesn’t try to hide his age as much as some people.
