What the fuck? Are people this dumb today or was he just lazy? I can't believe this guy wasn't ABLE to download and execute a fucking binary file. My 6 year old self was more capable than this faggot.
should i be concerned if i dont understand a single thing op said about the tech stuff
Julian Baker
Yes, you should.
Angel Carter
It's 2018, why would anyone be using py2
Tyler King
try to do the work of a mechanical engineer, retard. I bet you can't even into fluids
Ryder Mitchell
Because huge legacy codebase.
Robert Torres
well if he teaches with python2 I'd drop that fucking class
Brandon Lopez
No, it's Python specific. But Python is a nice language, you should learn it!
Joseph King
Are you from the United States? In that case the answer is yes, of course. The education system has failed this generation, particularly when it comes to boys. Young men out of high school are flat out stupider than they were 10 years ago.
Carter Green
python 3 is fucking shit. I learned python2 and I will never ever fucking switch over
Oliver Gomez
Here is why python is destined to fail
Jaxson Richardson
>stupider American education
Adrian Myers
Are you sure about that? Or maybe college is not a right and not meant to be for everyone? Fucking Christ most people are mediocre and that’s okay why does everyone have to push this college for everyone meme?
Also OP is a faggot. If you can’t deal with dumb people you are just as big of a retard yourself for trying to be a tutor since that is the whole point.
Bentley Gray
>python 3 is fucking shit. I learned python2 and I will never ever fucking switch over and this is why you will never develop software in a professional environment
Jeremiah Peterson
jokes on you I'm in such a development position where I am able to make the call that we stick to python2 and I did so
Jack Phillips
I'd love to hear more, what sort of fart apps do you develop faggot?
Zachary Thomas
Common core doesn't provide you with the tools to think critically and really dig into problems, which I think is the 2 fundamental things needed to program. And this is coming from someone who works as a software engineer and went through public schooling in Florida of all places.
The only fix is to really undo any 'learning' you may have had, keeping anything actually meaningful (AP english in my case...) and devote a great amount of energy into learning how to code.
Cameron Harris
t. First year engineering student
Jaxon Lewis
You're the professors assistant and don't know which python version she's using? Fake and gay
James Powell
the state of Sup Forums
Oliver Cooper
>But Python is a nice language, you should learn it! I know you are b8ing
He talked about downloading a file, Jesus... What's happening to this board?
Hudson Wood
That's what you get with publicly available services, sooner or later the userbase waters down with idiots. Floens making Sup Forums the default board in Clover and all the news about shit Sup Forums and Sup Forums caused didn't help.
Dylan Davis
py3 is gay. Parentheses around prints are gay.
Hunter Long
shit's been downhill since 2007, then we hit the ground and started drilling down further since 2014 at this point we're so far below rock bottom this could be mistaken for reddit or facebook at times
I hope you haven't been to Sup Forums any time soon. Even Sup Forums is better than it at this point. With everything taken into consideration, Sup Forums is the only worthwile board on this website.
Luke Turner
> best colleges in the world are in the US
Connor Morgan
i've never visited Sup Forums, and i haven't visited Sup Forums since probably about 2007 >Sup Forums is the only worthwile board on this website. that's a scary thought
Tyler Ward
>people are dumb I am okay with it
Nathan King
I can deal with students being dumb, retarded "academics" is what annoys me.
Kayden Nelson
*are, fuck i should sleep for more than two hours a night
Henry Miller
>what is /diy/
Brandon Bell
this, dumb people = job security a social divide between stupid cattle and technocratic elite is my wet dream the future is looking bright as fuck
Robert Nelson
can you into fluid mechanics? no? ok, go back to your computer then.
Luis Long
you're projecting pretty hard here man, what happened, did you fail dynamics the first time you took it?
Michael Hernandez
still you are not answering. Go back to your computer. For and mechanical engineer, you are just a dumb normie.
Lucas Reyes
He won't make it through the weeding classes. Much more people apply for a CS major than graduate with one.
Parker Scott
That is a word.
Samuel Garcia
Wait Sup Forums isn't just a subreddit? #TheMoreYouLearn
Charles Jackson
>expects students to have any prior knowledge Ok Mr Hitler, why didn't you just help this guy. Who knows what operating system his daily driver his. What is if he just operates on Android? Ever thought about that?! Next time ask him if he has any slides from his professerino. And instead of typing your snarky thoughts why don't you respect this guy's privacy. You should stop being a bitch, and start empowering your students such that they will become the best coders.
py2 loses support in 2020, you will have to switch in two years
Josiah Cooper
Actually, there is two options: >support will end, quite a bunch of pydiots will cry >some companies pick up support and prolong the shism, quite a bunch of pydiots will cry As someone with no stakes involved it will be hilarious.
