Things you weren't capable of three years ago - Darth-Apple - October 24th, 2013
What are some things you can do well now that you weren't able to do three years ago?
For me, programming PHP, JS, and HTML/CSS is all something I have learned in the past 18 months. Three years ago I was still doing C++/Python.

Reverse engineering.
complex cooking.

I can attest. He has showed me some videos in the past.
I can sing as well. Maybe we should start a thread.

Maybe? No, definitely! :
Though, I have no skills to speak of.

The first rule of karaoke is that skill is irrelevant, just have fun with it.

Do you find that a lot of the same people are there from night to night?

@ Darth: actually yeah, but the group of guys I hang with at the bar are a bunch of chill neo-nerds and such, some pretty cool guys all in all, like our own version of the irregulars

That's a good one though!
Most I ever took was Pre-calculus. Not even sure what that is now...
RE: Things you weren't capable of three years ago - Harry K. - May 28th, 2018
I don't think we do calculus in the UK? And if we do, that shows how much I know.

Derivatives and limits, does that ring a bell? Hmm...
Honestly I've never used it real life. It has applications like everything else but it's fairly advanced.
RE: Things you weren't capable of three years ago - Electric2Shock - May 29th, 2018
I'm probably gonna end up a professor somewhere, and I'm fine with that. I also don't find a lot of daily applications but I keep finding interesting nitty gritties everywhere just so that I can shoehorn by knowledge of integrals into such and such a situation.
I actually can do much less stuff on the web now than I could a couple years ago

3 years ago, i would have never thought about actually running a live version of another OS alongside windows. but iam thx to pendrivelinux. i was reluctant in trying something new that involved new technology.

An yeah I love keeping a nix usb around, if for nothing else than to do my monthly virus deep cleaning. After all, virus can't escape if it doesn't even activate due to an unfamiliar is lol.
