Are "learn to code" apps like the ones from sololearn any good if I want to learn some basic skills? Anyone had experience with these or others?
just read a book
no. they are monkey see, monkey do apps. get some good books (and don't ask me for recommendations like a fag)

I used solo learn to learn c++ before doing a games programming course at university... For the first two terms everything I learnt, coding wise, I'd already covered on sololearn... So yes it's good for understanding the syntax of a language and basic programming logic.
Why can't people grasp simple math like
P = U * I (Power equals Voltage times Current)
so that they could easily see that the "stove" in pic related is total bullshit!
Why do people fall for this, and how can we use their stupidity.
because ppl are stupid :D
people literally think this shit is magic, even if you try to explain anything they just think you magically got that knowledge, as if it was easy to acquire.
A lot of people are stuck in this world where only the things /they/ care about take actual effort or thought and anything is just hand-waved as magic, so they don't even try.
>>58059370
It's not about grasping simple math, as anyone can do simple multiplication. It's about graphing physics, since P = I×V is a concept from physics.

Just recently had linux mint for like 2 weeks, but cinnamon feels like it has no fuckin shortcuts and I don't want to configure every little bit. Just give me a workin distro ffs. UBuntu is just great. Thanks Canoncial.

But it does eliminate the need for showering because of lack of animal protein, which degrades into amino acids which in turn degrade into ammonia that is the source of the smell. Urea is made up of mainly ammonia and urea is what is secreted through the skin.

What will be the next tech-related meme to bite the dust?
>>58059040
VR isn't dead, the technology is in its infancy. Anons saying VR is dead in 2016 is like people saying cars are dead in 1890. That said, there's no reason to buy VR now unless you want to be on the bleeding edge of tech, wait 10-15 years.
>>58059108
The problem is, if people don't buy them now in a high enough number, there won't be any in 10-15 years, and it will die before it actually starts to become mainstream.
>>58059040
>motion control dead
It's just gone away for a while before VR, which is going to rely on it very heavily, gets big
>3D cinema dead
In homes yes, but not in actual movie theaters.
>ambilight dead
I don't think it was ever alive so
>VR dead
Not really... It's still gaining momentum as the selection of games improves and people wait for the inevitable mass market priced hardware (other than the PSVR) to become commonplace.
>smartwatches dead
Apparently the Apple watch is selling better than ever right now so if it was ever alive, it's doing better than what it did.
>4K movies a stillbirth
For physical media, yes, it simply arrived too soon after regular blu-ray, but 4k streaming is only taking off as 4k displays start gaining market penetration. Who knows, maybe enough market penetration for 4k displays will create a market for 4k blu-ray?

Bad OP image

This OP poster is cool!
Is this caratboi?
is /g/ really this autistic to praise this guy?
Or is it just a meme, like praising richard underStallman?

>>58058975
It's a meme.

He's crazy, but that doesn't mean what he's done is not impressive.
It takes a skilled and dedicated programmer to write their own OS from scratch, including their own programming language, and other userspace tools to go along with it.

Why the fuck does 4K TVs come with VGA inputs and not DVI?
Like i get that HDMI is the primary input, but like, why the fuck even include a VGA input?!
>>58058761
vga is still the standard
>>58058761
VGA is still an industry standard
>>58058787
VGA in still A stanrdard. An old outdated one.
Don't think I've had a single device with an VGA output (except DVI-i whicvh includes an analog signal, but then you might aswell use DVI's sigital output).. Today everything comes with HDMI or mini-DP? And in some rare cases DIV?
If I know Windows 8.1 and its shortcuts and whatnot, am I able to use Windows 10 professionally in a support position?
Apparently, Windows 10 is absolute shit. So, I'm thinking switching to 8.1 from 7.
I bought Windows 8.1 at launch, but stopped using it for some reason. I guess it must have been lack of start menu and classic theme.
Remind me again why I shouldn't use Windows 8.1?
VMs are a thing, you know.
Also I use 8.1 every day at work, it's fine. I usually forget that I'm not running 10 unless I go to the start menu
>>58058756
Slap classic shell on it and you're good
>>58058756
Windows 8.1 is far superior to Windows 10.
Stay on it as long as possible.

Why Windows 10 is so slow on HDD?
>>58058607
Because HDD is outdated piece of technology which should be forgotten just like CDs and optical drives.

how long untill CPU is kill?
>>58058582
Back in my days, 80°C+ were default temps for any CPU available. Just do not listen to faggost screaming they lungs about housefire meme.
>>58058582
It'll be super obsolete long before it's kill from temperature, modern chips are fine well into the 90s
