So have I, actually. Good book.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MELKOR GOT A NEW USERNAME! AND IT'S NOT EVEN SPELLED RIGHT!

What? Cryptonia, maybe you need sleep. (I certainly do. :p)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

And so saffyangelis becomes resident member before cryptonia. Something must be wrong with our system.

I would recommend something more cross-platform.

How do you measure that, and are you sure that means your Ne is dominant?

What do you mean?

Oh, yeah. Well, since you're just starting now, it's probably best to start with the latest version, which in this case is 3.0.

No, that actually already existed, apparently.

OK, starting with something like Robot Battle is fine. (Though I think Python may have something like Turtle or something...) I was just saying that if you're starting with a bare language, and not some sort of educational framework like that, then Python is probably better.

BASIC is easier to master than Python, yes, but that's because there's less of it to master. In Python, learning to do everything that BASIC can do is easier than in BASIC.

Great! You downloaded Python 3.0, not 2.6, right? If Python is hard to learn, then you're using a bad tutorial. Python is easy to learn. (FusionKnight, BASIC is not a good idea. BASIC is harder and less useful than Python.) I can help! (Moving this thread...)

OK, I'm going to sleep now. Good night.

And why not?

Jar breeze! And a variation: Old fashioned potpourri!

How do you decide that? Well, yes, but good intent does not always translate to good results.

Ooh, some of the stuff you said in one of the later posts in that thread may be worth making a thread about. I think I'll do that later. (Not now. Have to sleep.)

I don't have much of a problem with teaching.

From the Inheritance cycle, the first book was bad, the second book was horrible, and the third book (or at least the first half of it, I haven't read all of it) was mediocre (better than either of the first two).

How would you tell where one thought ends and another begins?

Hello and welcome. Yay for taking an interest in everything!

Let that be a lesson to you, kids! Eating spinach speeds the process of aging! :p

From what I've read and heard about Twilight, the book itself is probably just bad, not horrible. But it's also popular, which results HypeBacklash, which leads to Hatedom. See http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Twilight. Something similar happened with Eragon a while ago.

Eh, that thing you said about his phrase "cogito ergo sum"...

I think we have some members who have been here for quite a while and yet have not posted in this thread.

Why is nobody posting in this thread? :p

Let's hear it for indecisiveness! Woo!

Great! Now we just need pirate zombies!

In the words of the great Dentarthurdent, "I could never get the hang of Thursdays."

Re: Absence of the forum Where's Cognisant? EDIT: Cognisant is back.

Wait, because of a volume of Death Note?

If I heard someone I knew trying to pull that, I would probably jump in with a comment similar to the one I just posted.

But there you're really answering "why are you" or "how did you come to be", not "how are you".

I still win. :D

No, your opinion has weight. You're only incapable of doing anything directly.

IQ tests are biased in favor of people who are good at IQ tests.

U3 only works on Windows (and possibly Wine), so a U3 drive will act pretty much like a regular flash drive on Linux. Aside from that, flash drive quality should be OS-independent.

We used to have a member called "shoesupplier". I nominate hir.

If you change your mind, there is a "Merge Accounts" button in the Admin CP.

That saying only gets attributed to Confucius because of the way his name sounds. Octagons?

And what about triangles?

No, I got the joke. I was responding to Tekton.

/me agrees with Lor.

You can't lend that to someone and expect them to give it back.

... ?!?

Don't forget some video games.

Hello, and welcome to the forum. Wait, you're a friend of saffy? AAAH! *Hopes you're not as destructive as saffy* Well, there was Shaz.

In the IRC channel, we were talking about how our thoughts sometimes make jumps that would seem random to other people, and...
