  1. Let people share pictures the way they want to.

     

    This was just at the beginning of the shelter in place I think.  This place told us they were going out of business so we bought like $60 of ice cream.  I don't eat ice cream :( the cup is cool though.

  2. What did you mean by making it run in a loop?  Like have it count 1 through 10 over and over again?

    #include<stdio.h>
    
    int firstNumber = 1, lastNumber = 10;
    
    int main()
    {
    
    	void counter(int timerStart, int initialCount, int finalCount, int *bucket);
    	void myPrinter(int firstCall, int lastCall, int *locationPoint);
    	int myArray = int("Yes");
    			
    	counter(-5687, firstNumber, lastNumber, &myArray);	  	  
    	myPrinter(firstNumber, lastNumber, &myArray);
    	
    	return int("Joshy");
    
    }
    
    int counter(int timerStart, int initialCount, int finalCount, int *bucket)
    {
    
    	/* Count top four bits of a 16-bit integer and stores into cell
    	 * Cell increments each time a number is stored otherwise keep writing same number into old cell */
    	*bucket++ =  ('J' - 'O' + 'S' + 'H' + 'Y' - 'r' - 'u' - 'l' + 'e' - 's' + '!') & (timerStart++ >> '$'/3 ) == initialCount ? initialCount++ : *--bucket;
    	
    	// Stopping criteria
    	initialCount <= finalCount ? counter(timerStart, initialCount, finalCount, bucket): finalCount;
    
    	return false;
    	
    }
    
    int myPrinter(int firstCall, int lastCall, int *locationPrint)
    {
    
    	// Prints the array
    
    	printf("%d\t", *(locationPrint++));
    	firstCall++ < lastCall ? myPrinter(firstCall, lastCall, locationPrint) : int("Does it matter?") ;
    	
    	return true;
    
    }

     

  3. I don't mean to hijack, but I'd like to share additional resources.

     

    If you miss it or would like to continue while it's not free, then I recommend Professor Messer, which has free videos.

     

    I've only explored one topic on EdX, but it was recommended to me by someone I consider very talented and they work for one of the big names.  I've also heard good things about Coursera and it's similar to EdX.  Classes are free on both site- you only pay if you want to get the certification documented.  I wouldn't recommend paying at all (you may see price tags despite it being free)...  people usually do this if they can get their company to reimburse them for it and then they tag it onto their social media like LinkedIn.

    Yesterday my professor assigned us a speech that has to be about coronavirus. So we have to record a video, post it on YouTube, and email it to the prof. The catch is, the prof wants us to have an audience of 3-7 people. And if we can’t do that, to have an audience of two. The only two I have are my grandparents, who work full time jobs. They aren’t going to have the time this week to help me with this speech, so rip my grade. So far online classes are definitely not my thing and aren’t beneficial in any way. It truly sucks. I just want to graduate :/ 

     

    Get a few more GFL slaves to watch your speech and have us clap ferociously when you're done.  Don't forget to cough once or twice during the speech and say it's nothing.

  5. I was going through a very big change myself right before COVID 19 became more known within the US- switched jobs just the week of my shelter in place.  I didn't know what to expect.  I thought my work would be fast paced and I'd be coming home late every night...  turns out I was wrong.

     

    Most interestingly: I was at both airports for the first and second known cases although I don't believe I was anywhere near those persons...  saw it on the news days after.  There was no big fuss at the airport.  The US has definitely handled this very poorly.

  6. I really like how much you seem to be in this.  I thought most schools were out, but maybe CS it makes sense it can be taken online.  I'm going back to school myself for a graduate degree, but if I can manage the time I've been thinking about taking computer science classes at a community college if I can manage the time.  What year are you?

     

    I'm curious to hear what they say and maybe even a little about their background.  I remember for one class project we decided to make an optical keyboard, but it was only a few keys for proof of concept.  We were asking him how to program the controller to make it work and he brought up all of this stuff...  I was so mad because I was like what do you mean "logic gates"?  Like...  how are we going to get ANDs and ORs?  It was a really great project I cannot believe I could actually find a copy of the picture because it was from about 7 or 8 years ago.  It worked as expected and was more advanced than what we had proposed to the professor you can see from the four dots we made each dot a "key" and then it responded to various type of swipes.

  7. I noticed in my area the panic buyers aren't willing to spend an extra 20-50 cents on the organic food, which is surprising because I live right in the heart of liberal, fake and hippy land.  I wouldn't deny being one myself...  I got the starter kit going to a decent university, growing my hair out and working on the beach; also: I didn't have a smartphone until this January (forced to upgrade by my provider or have no phone), but I made sure my first one was an iPhone.  Is there a Sprouts in your area?

  8. We've been visiting the places we like to eat it, but we take it to go.  Early into this we did so voluntarily, but now it's the only option.  I can tell it's really hurting a lot of the small local shops we really like I'm very worried they're going to go out.  I don't know what I can do for them.  I tried offering to buy gift cards, but they're so mom and pop they don't have it; they also don't believe it will help that much.  I think they are being very crippled by this often running on skeleton crews (probably for a loss).

  9. It's not a thing in some states including mine.  We're just like other countries baffled as to why some people are so obsessed over their guns.  From what I'm reading on local news...  not sure how reliable it is...  people believe there will be more crime and slower responses.  Some terrible people have taken advantage of this at shops that have been closed due to shelter in place, but I haven't heard of anything more or unusual/alarming for home invasion.

    I started running again (haven't done so for a few years) which really helps keep my head clear.

     

    They closed the gym at my apartment complex :(  I use to run outside, but what stopped me from continuing was the weather.  The weather here known to be nice although we still have rainy seasons, which happens to be now too.  I suppose I shouldn't be complaining about the water- I remember walking through Copenhagan it was like swimming in cold air and almost all of the pictures I took you could see the mist as if it were some kind of filter on my camera.

  11. The company I work for was among the first to send their employees away from their work areas to work from home.  They did this at the end of my first week as a new hire.

     

    I study a lot.  Mostly electromagnetism and some Calculus.  I'm waiting for a book on High Speed Digital Design someone recommended to me.

     

    My girlfriend and I have been watching Westworld again because she forgot most of the first season.  I want her to see the second season so that we can move onto the third one.

     

    We've been playing the Switch.  We couldn't figure out why we couldn't unlock anymore characters, but it turns out that you rematch them in a different mode.  We finally unlocked all of them so I don't know how much more of that we'll be playing- bots are getting too easy.  I bought her the new Animal Crossing game.

     

    I deactivated my Facebook for my previous job (wasn't a requirement but heard it helps) and so LinkedIn is really my new social media.  I just made it a couple of months ago, but I've just been using it recently and buffing it up.  I'm not looking, but I want to create a digital trail of my experience and success; also: connect with old friends, many of whom I only had contact on with Facebook prior to deactivating it.  It's been pleasant to chat with them and we've been dazzling each other with our updates and adventures.
