Hello,I recently found some old computer science books and I wanted to know if it's fine to study from them or is the knowledge in them outdated.
They are almost 20 years old.

There is a lot of +20 year old computer science that is still very relevant. But I would not recommend text books that old.

How can I learn to smile more? If i try to smile it looks forced.

Try to see it in a different light. To "smiling" there's always this large connection to being forced. Smile for a photo. Smile to look good.
You rather want to "laugh". When you think of laughing, you always think of it as a reaction to some inner feeling. Apart from a nervous laugh, the fun laugh always feels more genuine than a smile and that's what you should try to do. Laugh, the good smile comes with it.
Obviously there's more to the difference of laugh and smile, but I hope you understand what I mean.
>>
Try to be genuinely happy instead. It entails more benefits than being fake for others.

I know it's his hair and he can do whatever he wants, but I think it's ugly :(
He's just waiting for his hair to get a bit longer :(((((
It just looks immature and unprofessional to me. How do I convince him to not get it?

Show off the picture while in a group of friends with him. If he sees how other people respond he'll get the idea.
However sometimes the only way to learn is to experience it. So let him do it. Chances are he will regret it immediately and change it back.

You get hair loss from haircuts like that. His hairline will thin out and recede. It's called traction alopacia. Tell him that.

It will fry your brain in the long term. Have you ever seen a fucking long term huffer? It's pathetic. If you're going to fuck yourself up, at least do real drugs.

Yes, a lot worse than cigarettes.
Even short term the effect it can have on your brain is very serious.

so you are saying I should do meth instead? Not looking for long termshit anyway. More interested in the short time usage.

Stuck in a personal rut, not sure how to shake it. I'm typically a highly focused individual, creatively inclined and business minded. I had a very poor childhood, my mother was mentally ill and my dad's physical and mental health eroded as I grew up. My mom was violent, verbally abusive and paranoid due to her schizophrenia. As a child, I was left unattended and a man tried to molest me, more top notch parenting from my crazy mom.
Since my childhood, I've tried to move past these things, I have an ok office job, I've had a few relationships and live with some roommates in a nice house. I left my sleepy hometown to pursue a career in advertising as a copywriter, working for about 5 years until it came to light that our boss was funnelling money and left the country (chick boss's, I tell ya). In spite of losing my career and moving back home, things should be ok...
I truly resent women, have dated many but can find very little in longevity with any one of them. I have a hard time with intimacy. I think this stems from my childhood. Right now I feel fatgued, not yearning for death but unable to tap into my latent ambition. The only thing that gives me real pleasure is the outdoors.
Called a psychiatrist to schedule an appointment but wanted some more input. Sorry for the blog...

Now let me preface this by saying, I'm not sure if this needed it's own thread, but I wanted to talk about it, not just get it off my chest.
And let me add backstory by saying most of my miles are acquired by driving to and from my boyfriend's house. We live 30 miles from each other which equates to a decent 45 to 60 minute drive. Me AND him drive A LOT!
Sunday and Monday are my days off, so by Monday night I am driving home from his house, because I have work in the morning. And usually I'm tired, since I wake up early even on days off just so I can get everything done. Yes I drink stuff with caffeine while driving at night to help.
I came to a complete stop at a stoplight, at the bottom of the crests of two steep hills. It was a 35 mph zone. Shortly after it will become a 45mph zone. I remember the blinding light of the vehicle behind me, and then the flashing officer lights. That's all I remember. He said I was going 52 in a 35mph zone. I think I was preparing to go uphill and begin the 45mph zone. I honestly wasn't aware of my speed: often while driving I go into autopilot mode.
I don't drink, I don't drink and drive, I don't do any drugs, i don't fiddle with my phone while driving, I don't even listen to music while I drive. I listen to the car and watch the road. And think. And I zone out sometimes, especially when tired. I'm just a normal person just trying to get home.
I did everything right that drive, but the second I didn't, they caught me. The terrain wasnt to my advantage. It was dark and rainy. I only wanted to go home and sleep. Been driving down that road for years, usually I observe the speed limit going downhill as well as uphill, but this time I wasn't thinking I guess...
What can I do besides become more terrified of cops, avoid that stretch of the road, or go horrendously under the speed limit just to appease them? Cuz it's not gonna stop me from thinking while I drive

first off, what evidence is there? dos he have a picture of your car on their camera with the license plates showing and the measured speed next to it? If there is no evidence, doubt that what he said is right if you think you didn't drive that fast.
How much do you have to pay, what are the consequences? if its just money, well there is no problem with that at all, everybody has to pay at some point in their life.
you also shouldnt fear the police, it doesnt happen very often, that the police stops you because of something like this the next time around. Hell I drive since ten years and have only been stopped by police once.

You're right. He didn't provide evidence but he used a tracker for a few seconds before he deemed it necessary to pull me over. I really don't think I accelerated from 0 to 52 within 2 seconds...
Yes I'm just gonna pay the $139 and be done with it. But now that you said it, even as tired as I was, I wasn't swaying and I wasn't going into any other lanes. My eyelids didn't feel like lead either. If I accelerated that fast, it wasn't within 2 seconds.
>don't fear the police
I got pulled over recently a few Monday nights ago along the stretch of road that comes directly after because I was swaying a little bit with tiredness. I didn't get cited, I think he just wanted me to get home safely. They're being aggressive about that stretch of road.
>>18646612
I drive a car that is extremely sensitive to the touch. It's painfully easy and frustrating going over the speed limit. It's like I don't even have to press the accelerator: it seems to accelerate if I simply think about making it so. That's how sensitive my pedals are. Any frequent drivers can relate to this feeling? I ALWAYS keep checking my speed every few seconds and adjust accordingly. It's not like I have a lead foot

>good at talking to people, girls especially somehow
>but nothing ever leads to anything more than that
What are you even supposed to do (seriously)?
One of the more recent times it literally went like
>talk to grill, both of us being flirty etc
>she says it's time for her next class, has to go
>i say "oh ok, cya" and walk away immediately
It ALWAYS goes like this, since I don't even have a clue what the fuck is next. I just autistically walk away like a fucking awkward retard
Autism. Someone walk me through this part like I am 5 years old and have AUTISM.
Since i am this retarded and posting this you probably (and rightfully so) don't believe that I am good at talking to people/girls. I actually am though. It is ONLY this part that I am fucking retarded and have autism.
Like I am not refraining from doing the right thing because I'm a pussy, I am unable to do it cuz I have no idea of what is appropriate
Again not talking about just girls, but in regards to other guys/potential friends too.
It's like I get along well with everyone but then idk, nothing more happens.

if you are interested in seeing her again, ask her, if you can see her again and if you can have her number
no seeing her again = no progress for you
also if you have no problems talking to her, you will then have to show her, that you are also sexually interested in her, probably not in the first or second date but afterwards you will have to show her.
>>
>>18646605
I don't have problems talking to anyone though is why I am scratching my head at this shit.
I guess I am so ingrained in my loner habits, I can't imagine how I would even do that. Like how would that even make sense if it's a random girl that sat next to you in class and flirts back and forth with you + talks to you afterwards

What do I do if I have one friend that always used o pick on me and I'm too nice to beat them up or do anything to them
This kid is totally pathetic like too much for words he's like 5'4 he's 24 and he's a complete virgin he can't even throw a ball or walk correctly but he's so quick to just be an ass hole and I think he knows people feel too sorry for him to actually beat him up and he has no friends because he's such an ass hole but he's always being a total dick to me
I really feel like shit for not beating him up when I should what do I do

Beating him up will make other pity him and give him attention.
Beat him at his own game, unless that twat really can outbanter you.

I mean I could rip into him but I know he's such an angry autistic dick head he'd take it too far and freak out and I'd probably have to hit him
I mean he's a short retard that's never talked to a girl before literally just describing him is insulting him

I think I might need to tell my friend who talked to me that he needs to stand up for himself.
He has this girl he's been dating. They're both in their 20's. He told me until recently, that his girlfriend had just informed her parents about him. He told me before it happened and said her parents were just a little conservative, which is fine.
He then proceeds to tell me that after meeting them which went fine, her parents performed a criminal background check on him, which pulled up two past traffic tickets. The parents then made him prove to them that he paid off his fines and completed his traffic classes.
I thought this was could not have been worse.
He then tells me that her parents have then informed him and his girlfriend that from time to time, they may hire a private investigator to see what his real life is all about. He told me they're rich and they have the means to do this easily.
This is literally the craziest thing I've ever heard in my life. I know love is love and whatever, but when is it enough for me to interject and tell him he needs to stand up for himself, and if it doesn't work out, then move on? Or should I not say anything and let him deal with it?

To add, these tickets were from many years ago.
I also forgot to say, they were wanting to look through his social media, his friends, and family, and possibly ask his associates what they think about him.
Who the living fuck thinks this way and does this shit?
>>
>>18646551
I don't believe you, but for the purpose of this board let's assume you are telling the truth. It appears that regardless of the parents bad behavior go a girlfriend seems fine. The most mature way he could approach it is to voice his concerns to his girlfriend for her to address the issue with her parents. Your job as his friend is to offer advice over what you think is right, but ultimately support whatever path he chooses, it's his life, if he wants to deal with relationship drama let him. Good or bad it's a learning experience about what his acceptable boundaries are in a relationship.
>>
>>18646560
The story is 100% true. I've known the guy for almost 15 years and he hasn't told me a single lie. It sounds unbelievable to me too.
Of course I will support whatever he does. I think I just need to let him know that it sounds fucking crazy to me.
The girl is great and fine, which SUCKS for this situation. I think your advice is actually spot on. I don't know how anyone can take that shit, and I'm certain he can't for long.

I overestimate my resolve,I become irritable, drained and frustrated when I meet resistance or have to struggle, my ambitions and willpower is great when set on something grand but something attainable within reach does not satisfy.
I also loathe working and having to rely on people as equals and I become inter-personally hostile, manipulative and destructive in a composed, articulate and reasonable but direct and merciless manner.
All of this is killing my perspectives in all my fields of interests and its killing my potential to do something I would actually be interested in.
I am no slob if I dedicate myself to something, I work until I fry my own brain and that is what's happening every time so I get nowhere.
What do I do?

Academia and government research wants PhDs. If you want to go into industry then it completely depends on the sub-field. Example: companies implementing CFD solutions desperately need PhD's because only they understand the state of the art and it proper applications. A code monkey with a BS isn't going to be able to integrate new RANS methods without fucking it up.

Im working in industry now and the upper echelon of engineers at my company all have PhDs. Many go into academia because it's a far easier job and lifestyle

Really? Are they non-tenure track? Because getting tenure and basically working on commission (salary a function of grant money pulled) seemed hella time consuming for my profs.

I'll keep it brief. I ran out of my antidepressants then went to a social gathering that I invited this girl to. Due to the withdrawals and certain stressful events happening I displayed emotions that I normally would have and did not handle the situation well. Now things are tense between this girl and I. No one knows I'm on medication and I want to keep it that way. What do I do? I miss medication refills on time due to my adhd and then bad things happen in my life because my emotions are out of whack..
