07/20 - Thirsty Thursday!

I miss Global Education batches and Noblis

 

A lot of the time black Friday deals are not the same as normal stuff. They sell cheaper versions of stuff with lower quality components ect. I'm not sure if laptops is one of those things however.

A little off topic but what are the best free online courses that would help me write scripts and programs? I've been meaning to get around to it someday and I guess today is that day where I am bored enough to give it a go.

 

Yeah today kinda sucks

 

terrible

 

I'll take some o' those too

Globals are now Education Research btdubs and they posted on 7/5/17

 

I've already surpassed my goal for the week but I bet my Vet won't have a hard time taking it from me today

 

I'm so glad it's not just me.

 

Idk about classes, I mostly learned by looking at existing scripts and then googling for things I wanted to do. "Javascript + keybinds" or "jquery + keybinds" will usually lead to the best stackoverflow solutions to the problems most times and feels more functional than just sitting through boring "here is how to write 'hello world' to the console!" lectures.

@Ethraiel also has a decent beginners guide on this IIRC: https://turkerhub.com/threads/learning-to-script-amt-hits.142/

I was wondering if I could pull it off that way.

 

I just signed up for code academy. I have done some AHK scripts but I would like to go a bit more in depth.

 

i'm at it again

 

While I generally agree with that, my TV was a black friday special from Best Buy a few years ago and it's been a champ.

Well I didn't want to do any surveys today anyways

Yeah but you aren't a very good one.

 

I think I just suck at finding and catching stuff.
