< wonders how everyone’s doing?

EDIT: < sees <’s the first poster on a new page twice in a row

< had a boring Monday. < is looking forward to starting the vacation period, which will be between this weekend and August the 27th.

< has been doing fine for the most part. < needs to really focus and stop procrastinating when it comes to <'s programming course, as there is a lot of info to take in.

< wonders how long ^ has been in that programming course and what code ^ is most familiar with.

< is also interested in how that is going. < is also reminded of the days when ^^ used to parody Jonster's posting style

< has learned a lot, at least in terms of the fundamentals. < was finding classes and object oriented programming a bit confusing at first, but < is getting somewhat familiar with it now. < also remembers the parody stuff yeah.

< knows OOP can be confusing indeed. < isn't sure the semantics of the word "class" are well explained to students…

< is just glad to have put the past behind <. Hmmm...if there's something < did miss about <'s earlier days being here, it's the talks < had here with <'s friends Though these days they're either busy like ^^, or just disappeared entirely, such as R4Y. < understands though that we all have lives outside of here (truth be told <'s activity is much more quiet now compared to the past....< just has other priorities to deal with now like cooking, gaming, programming, etc...) and < still has other friends like ^ who are still around to talk to when < does show up.

Hey as long as ^ is learning something new constantly < thinks it's a good thing. The worst possible thing that could happen is you end up stagnating. Which < admits that happened to < several times since < graduated.
< wants to learn some new programming languages too (like C++ and C#) but < feels < needs to catch up on the languages < does remember first (like Linux). Especially since Plum has now reminded < of an interview back in 2018 where < blanked and couldn't answer things like what a class or object was and what OOP stood for.

Sorry if <'s post seems a little long and somber but < really just wanted to reflect on things for a bit.

Anyways since < and <'s sister are alone in the house for a week or two, < has been catching up on things, though there's still a lot to do tbh. < wants to start off today by cooking something wholesome and healthy for <self. And get some workout videos done.

< agrees with ^ when talking about stagnating after graduation. < also felt a bit of nostalgia once < graduated, but things seem to be a bit better now. ^ shouldn't worry to sound somber (< thinks it doesn't in really), it's okay to reflect on things.

< knows all about stagnating after graduating. < is heading to a reunion next month, and feels it could end up something like this:

< wonders if anyone has seen Kevin Roose's strange conversation with Bing Chat. < would have posted that in the AI topic, but that would involve double-posting

< Had to be in summer school for the whole June, missing pride month < Had phone taken away for early July < I don’t know. Just horrible crap.

<finds ^’s troubles painful, but everyone in <‘s country had to go to school in the whole of June and most of July

< thinks you've had some wiki work to finish for a long time, too.

< I’m all alone.

< knows that ^ is not

< says this is also true. < should at least get the rest of the relic screenshots at some point.

After reading ^^^^'s post, < is planning to replay Rayman 2 or Rayman Revolution so < can complete the Spanish Wiki. It isn't necessary to play the game to complete it, but < found the perfect excuse to replay that game in <'s free time

< hopes you'll find the time soon! This would greatly improve the rest of the Rayman Origins level articles.

< is glad to hear this, as there is still a lot to be done when it comes to Rayman 2 on the Spanish wiki! < looks forward to seeing it grow.

< will try to when < can, but it will come down to better time management, since < has studies etc. < will still try to get around to it of course, as it's definitely beneficial to have the Origins articles complete. Having a modded Vita to actually take them as PNG instead of JPG is nice too, < has no idea why Sony didn't have it that way in the first place.

< finds that it doesn't matter too much with a good enough JPG compression algorithm, and that the files end up being much smaller, but < understands why some people would want this!
