So now you can code? If I sat you in front of a computer with no internet and no GPU but your choice of IDE, you would actually be able to produce a product?

Attention Please Everyone

You're looking at a specimen of one of the most rattled species nowadays. It is so fun finding them under these articles.

Their last attempts at finding inner-validation.

What a waste.

You claimed that you learned to program.

Was that claim not true?

Now you want to have a "discourse"? No thanks.

Honestly, I want you to live with your assumptions and beliefs. No more goodwill from my side to your username.

No discourse - you made a claim, but it appears now that your claim is untrue.

It's faster for you to answer the question than to dodge it: Have you actually learned what you claimed you did?

Hey man we all have our own skill levels and challenges and do all sorts of different work.

I don't want to shit on what you've done but you're coming in WAY too hot for how trivial your work is and how inflated your description of it is.

You're demanding humbleness while being extremely proud. Check yourself.

Thanks for the heads-up. Appreciate that.

Okay, after re-reading the thread, looks like, this question was not in bad faith. While commenting, I was reading from bottom-to-top and so made an opinion about you based on your bottom thread comments (which still stands correct), but for other readers, they deserve an answer, not the questioner.

Anyone wondering about my proficiency, I can code without internet or AI help. But it takes enormous amount of time and mistakes.
