Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Semi-obligatory thanks to @dgerard for starting this.)
depends on audience / person? and also maybe teacher
Iāve stepped people through essentials with e.g. idea ātell me how to make coffeeā (as an intro to procedurals and dependency) all the way through many other types/shapes, through lego/blockly/whatever style teaching, and through outright āimagine this is a magic box and ${thing} comes out the other sideā stepped iteration. sometimes you can jump straight to āhey so hereās a language that means specific things and hereās what that meansā and go from there
so yeah I guess for my part Iād say I attune to the recipient. but for advice toward teacher I guess Iād attune that toward what I figure theyād be good at teaching
soā¦ whatāre you good at (teaching)?
I mean for myself. Iāve gotten as far as making a blackjack game in the past, but I couldnāt figure out what to do next.
