@tchrist I shortlisted 5 books to read this year. I will need to add one more book to the list: How to start reading books.

> The school building was old and collapsed as a result of heavy rainfall in the region, Amit Kumar, a local police officer, told Reuters.

Vikas

yst 20:48

The news made it to international newspapers also and now they are asking to pay to read.

Vikas

yst 20:47

@Cerberus I guess it was old or poorly constructed.

Vikas

yst 20:46

Blame rain instead of poor infrastructure and building

> 7 Children Are Killed in School Roof Collapse in India
An official in the northwestern state of Rajasthan said that heavy rain had pooled on the roof before it fell in.

@Cerberus Wait, isn't it the one that's discontinued? And some Russian version is available. The one Cowp told me about.

@Cerberus Which extension you use now?

@Mitch Well

Vikas

yst 19:07

Got it

Vikas

Vikas

yst 19:07

Maybe they meant this thing?

Vikas

> So how long has this been going on... this thang?

Vikas

yst 19:06

They also use a phrase "This thang".

Vikas

yst 19:04

The subtitles say "fruck out" but it could be that they said "frack out". It's not clear by hearing.

Vikas

yst 19:04

A: Oh that's horrible. Are you guys all right?
B & C: Yeah it just fruck us out.

Vikas

yst 18:58

The movie also gave vibes like Us.

Vikas

yst 18:57

Have you ever heard the phrase "fruck out"? It's used in the movie. I wonder if it's same as freak out.

Vikas

yst 18:53

@Mitch It was good, entertaining. Also, I think thought provoking so I can't grasp the meaning of the movie at once.

Vikas

yst 14:28

But I hope it doesn't have some complex life drama that's not easy to understand.

Vikas

yst 14:28

@Mitch Good is what matters.

Vikas

yst 14:28

But I watch some Bollywood comedies if they're good and have some theme/story.

Vikas

yst 14:26

@Mitch Good. I don't tend to watch comedies in general.

Vikas

yst 14:13

Now I'll watch Get Out.

Vikas

yst 14:12

Ending felt like a little dark comedy though.

Vikas

yst 14:11

Especially because IMDb says it is also a Comedy movie. I didn't get that.

Vikas

yst 14:10

@GratefulDisciple I watched I’m Not a Robot. It seemed decent to me. Also, not sure if I even understood it fully.

@JourneymanGeek That's what I asked and the answer was always NO

Vikas

yst 10:58

@wizzwizz4 Yes, I think I tried for a good amount of time. But it wasn't enough.

Vikas

yst 10:54

That is true I guess

Vikas

yst 10:52

I often ask myself if I should start again, but again I know I'm bad at those core logic and maths and problem solving skills. So I don't try realistically.

When I quit, I actually gave myself 6 months to rethink my decision. I told myself to return again after 6 months to programming if I feel it was a bad decision. But I thought I should go back again.

Vikas

yst 10:47

But I wasn't enjoying programming either.

Vikas

yst 10:46

@wizzwizz4 No. I have nothing left now.

Vikas

yst 10:46

I quit for exactly these problems. But sometimes I wonder if I made the right decision.

Vikas

yst 10:45

This is why I quit

Vikas

yst 10:44

Can you be a programmer if you are bad at algorithms, logic, problem solving skills and maths?

@AraFilani You mean CG COOKIE? He makes really professional and easy to understand tutorials. I started by watching his tutorials. But his advanced tutorials are not free.
