Hot take, Elden ring is a really good souls like, but that doesn't mean its actually a good game.

within the subgenre, souls-likes have always had really huge issues with accessibility, and i don't mean for disability alone. Elden ring especially had extremely horrible performance issues at launch, which they did eventually fix. Even then you still have to get a 400 dollar PC. Aside from that there are some strange decisions made with teaching the player, like the tutorial is just a hole that players had to point out to each other, and On my barely stable first 20 minutes, i couldn't even find (my b i guess). Obviously alot of extremely experienced gamers would be able to handle themselves super well in Elden ring even without a tutorial. But there's another issue there with accessibility.

2 last things on accessibility. The game's audio is mixed like a movie, (so barely audible or ripping out your eardrums ;-;) witch is another accessibility issue, that you have to put a lot of work in to fix. And the graphics range from maxing out the brightness, to being completely black on bad screens. obviously an issue. I'm not going to go into the issues with explanations and the general tell don't show nature of alot of souls likes, because people have already complained about the text tunnels enough

I do really appreciate the artistry and just beautiful atmosphere Elden ring has, my only issue with the graphics is the performance requirements for them. Also if you never turned the graphics all the way down, it used to cause bit lag spikes just because it wanted to i guess :")

So, my argument is that a game can be a good version of the predecessors it bases itself off of, but if it doesn't actually deliver on playability and accessibility, I really don't think its deserving of the praise it gets. here are examples of games I think are flawless Unraveled/Unraveled 2 Hades Minecraft (Java edition only [cuz bedrock is completely broken somehow???) Never alone (a cool 2 player co op platformer that me and my brother played through when we were 6 and 8 or smthn, it was incredible, and i still think its worth playing as an adult) Spelunky 2 ***Monster Hunter (except for the extremely slow RPG elements) [takes 3 months to get 1 armor set built fully :)]

So i actually have some great news for the difficulty purists, You can actually do a hardcore game well, So long as you make failure quick and readable, Make trying immediate, and Make learning a part of the design. Spelunky is not my cup of tea, i have a bad time with reaction time, but spelunky is really great, in that your goal every attempt is simply to get as far as possible. In elden ring, you have the opposite problem, where instead of completing the objective being extraordinarily hard, getting from point a to point b is tediouse, saving the game takes time, occasionally you can be attacked without knowing why, and you dont get a clear read on what went wrong, ETC. If Elden ring was only the boss fights, I would say its almost a great game. Which is why I included Monster hunter on that list, despite its insufferable grind. Also BTW spelunky 2 has four fun minigames. a requirement for any game to be truly perfect is for there to be appeal for casual gamers, and i don't think adding casual elements makes a game worse, like, ever.

Anyways, last little thing, I really dislike it when People praise games for not catering to the needs of some players. Like everyone has heard dudebros or their friends be like "It doesn't have any difficulty settings! that's so sick!" But, like, Have you ever met someone with a motor function disability, or like, just someone who doesn't play games for 30000 hours every year? Difficulty settings and the ability to control your experience are important. and this isn't about Elden ring, But if you care about being an ally you should want your games to have accessibility features, they only benefit people. and if you're so worked up about about an extra tab being in the settings window, maybe you should like, go to therapy or something.

Also Elden ring's UI is so ass it gave my design teacher a heart attack and they hired a Pe*o as our sub.

HOW TO SWITCH TO LINUX

So, we're going to go through this step by step.

Before we begin, let's keep a few things clear:

Linux is not Windows, it is its own system, with its own culture, history and way of doing things.

There are many "distributions", "distros" or "flavors" of Linux. What works for you may be different from what people recommend.

You'll want to read up on how to use the terminal; the basics an absolute beginner needs is short, but important. It's not hard to learn, just takes a bit of time and effort.

ADOBE DOES NOT WORK ON LINUX.

WINE is not a Windows Emulator, it should not be treated as such.

Proton is a compatibility tool built on WINE by Valve, which has its own compatibility database, called ProtonDB. It still isn't an emulator and can have quirks.

Not everything will work on Linux. Dead by Daylight actively blocks Linux players from joining a game, as an example. The Windows Edition of Minecraft is another. (But the Java Edition does!)

There are many FOSS alternatives to popular programs, but they may lack maturity and features compared to their commercial counterparts.

You might want to invest in an external drive. It'll keep your files safe and you'll be able to move all your files to a

Step 1: why do you want to switch? Are you concerned about privacy? Are you wanting to boycott Windows? Is 11 not an option for your hardware? Want to try something new? Be honest with yourself on what you want to do. Write down your hardware specs. You'll want to know what kind of processor, RAM, video card and memory you're working on.

Step 2: Make three lists: Programs you need for work, programs you use at home (that aren't games) and games you like to play. Check each of these for if they already have a Linux port. For games, you can check if it's Steamdeck compatible! For those where you can't find one or it's not clear, you can check for the program on WINE HQ and ProtonDB (for games.) Not all of them might be compatible!

There might be Linux-based alternatives for several things, but keep in mind that Adobe does NOT support Linux and does NOT work on WINE! Sea of Thieves and LibreOffice works, Dead by Daylight and Scrivener do not.

Step 3: Get a GOOD QUALITY USB drive stick! I recommend one that's at least 30 GB. That sounds like a lot, but operating systems these days are huge-but there's some fun stuff you can get. It's really important that you get a good quality one, not just a random stick off a reseller like Wish.

Step 4: Remember when I asked you why you were switching? Time to pick a Linux version. There is no "one, true Linux" version-the operating system is open, groups make their own versions and put it out into the world. If you're confused, check out Distrowatch. Read a list here. Download an option-if you have a few sticks around, try multiple ones.

Step 5: Plug in your USB and use either UNetbootin or Rufus to create your boot device. Rufus might be easier if you're not super computer savvy. When looking over the options, make sure there's some storage, set it to most of what's left. Take out your boot stick for now.

Step 6: Find out how to boot to your BIOS. Every computer has a BIOS. Check out your model of laptop/motherboard to figure out what it is. Arrange boot order so that your USB gets checked first.

Step 7: If you have an external drive, move all your personal stuff, game saves, etc to it or purchase cloud drive storage for it. Always back up your files, and with multiple methods.

Step 8: You aren't going to be installing Linux quite yet; instead, boot it up from USB. Note, it'll be a bit slow on USB 2.0, though a USB-3 device and slot should make matters easier. Test each version you're considering for a week. It is super important that you test! Sometimes problems crop up or you turn out to not like it!

Step 9: Once you find a distro you like and have tested, consider if you want to dual boot or completely wipe Windows. Some programs for work might require Windows or you might have a few games that ONLY work on Windows and that's perfectly fine! Just keep in mind, as of Windows 11, this option is not recommended. If you want to use dualboot, you want to keep Windows 10 and NOT update. There's great tutorials on how to make it happen, search engines should be able to point you to one.

Step 10: Fully install Linux and immediately update. Even the latest installers will not have the current security patches. Just let it update and install whatever programs you want to use.

Step 11: Enable compatibility tools in Steam if you're a gamer. File, options, compatibility. Also, check the Software Store in your OS for open source re-implementations for your favorite older games!

You're now a Penguin!

Update on the learning to code thing: at first I was using Mimo, for nearly the past 2 months actually, and I decided to get a second app yesterday, Sololearn, and have been working with W3schools as well (I have also been considering Codédex, just because it looks fun, and the Odin project when I get more confidence because it looks intense) So I can "study from different angles" so to speak, in my head if I study one thing multiple ways it stays for longer. And anyways, I found out that Mimo wasn't teaching a shit tone of stuff!!! With html alone there where so manny gaps between what it was teaching me and the questions it would ask me (for example it didn't tech me what a div was (I googled it) but it asked me a question about styling a div in the css section, and it didn’t show me haw to make a table or lists either, it did teach me lists but not until I was already aslo learning Java (if I remember correctly)).

I still think Mimo is good, I did some further digging on places like Reddit and several of those sites where they rate different educational apps, and Mimo still does pretty good! Unfortunately, I like knowing all the stuff about what I'm learning and implied learning (where it teaches you a thing by asking you questions about the thing) isn't for me. I need information first, then repetition to really let it sink in (and again, I need to see things in multiple ways). It's why with Duolingo, I've been moving at a snails pace, learning pretty much anything. Duo does better with its format than Mimo (in my opinion) because with it's "implied" learning your allowed to tap/click on what you don't know and read what it is (or if it's a word that has multiple meanings you can read through those and get good idea). Duo also has these little section notes things that you can read through before you start a single lesson in the section, giving you the info before it asks you questions on the things. I don't think I can continue with Mimo personally, but I still think I'll recommend it for a start at the very least! I also think imma start recommending learning python early on as well, just because what little I know of it was so simple and easy to learn I think it makes a good jumping point and it's good for a lot of stuff!!!

On another note (related), ever since learning that I need the info before I'm questioned on it (I get too frustrated if I don't and it makes it hard for me too keep learning because I feel discouraged), I've figured out how to make learning a bit easier for me and I've been moving so much faster in my various studies (I say say pretentiously). I've also managed to order some textbooks for myself, both for coding and for my SATs! I'm very excited and I'm hoping I can keep this up, learning anything is hard and can get exhausting buy I'm hoping I can get better at all of this, I like this and wanna keep going!

I WOULD HAVE BEEN DELIGHTED IF I'D REALIZED IN COLLEGE THAT THERE WERE PARTS OF THE WORLD THAT DIDN'T CORRESPOND TO REALITY, AND WORKED FROM THAT

So were the early Lisps. We're Jeff and Bob and we've built an easy to use web-based database as a system to allow people to collaboratively leverage the value of whatever solution you've got so far. This probably indicates room for improvement.1 What would you pay for right now?2 If you'd proposed at the time.3 I've read that the same is true in the military—that the swaggering recruits are no more likely to know they're being stupid. And yet by far the biggest problem.4

If you want to keep out more than bad people. I am self-indulgent in the sense of being very short, and also on topic. Another way to figure out how to describe your startup in one compelling phrase. Most people have learned to do a mysterious, undifferentiated thing we called business. The Facebook was just a way for readers to get information and to kill time, a way for readers to get information and to kill time, a programming language unless it's also the scripting language of MIT. Committees yield bad design. When you demo, don't run through a catalog of features. A couple weeks ago I had a thought so heretical that it really surprised me. If we want to fix the bad aspects of it—the things to remember if you want to start startups, they'll start startups.5

Cobol and hype Ada, Java also play a role—but I think it is the worry that made the broken windows theory famous, and the larger the organization, the more extroverted of the two paths should you take?6 And a safe bet is enough.7 Though in a sense attacking you. They didn't become art dealers after a difficult choice between that and a career in the hard sciences.8 You can, however, which makes me think I was wrong to emphasize demos so much before. Kids help. But the short version is that if you trust your instincts about people. That's becoming the test of mattering to hackers. One of the most successful startups almost all begin this way.9

But something is missing: individual initiative. He got away with it, but unless you're a captivating speaker, which most hackers aren't, it's better to play it safe. But if you want to avoid writing them. What you should learn as an intellectual exercise, even though you won't actually use it: Lisp is worth learning for the profound enlightenment experience you will have when you finally get it; that experience will make you think What did I do before x? If you had a handful of users who love you, and merely to call it an improved version of Python.10 The political correctness of Common Lisp probably expected users to have text editors that would type these long names for them. Be careful to copy what makes them good, rather than the company that solved that important problem. Since a successful startup founder, but that has not stood in the way of redesign.11 I would have been the starting point for their reputation. Whatever the upper limit is, we are clearly not meant to work in a big program.

I know because I've seen it burn off.12 For us the main indication of impending doom is when we don't hear from you. Maxim magazine publishes an annual volume of photographs, containing a mix of pin-ups and grisly accidents. One of the most important thing a community site can do is attract the kind of people who use the phrase software engineering shake their heads disapprovingly. We've barely given a thought to how to live with it. The usual way to avoid being taken by surprise by something is to be consciously aware of it.13 It took us a few iterations to learn to trust our senses. Gmail was one of the founders are just out of college, or even make sounds that tell what's happening.

And odds are that is in fact normal in a startup. For example, if you're starting a company whose only purpose is patent litigation. You're just looking for something to spark a thought.14 Wireless connectivity of various types can now be taken for granted.15 There is not a lot of wild goose chases, but I've never had a good way to look at what you've done in the cold light of morning, and see all its flaws very clearly. What sort of company might cause people in the future, and the classics.16 001 and understood it, for example. One trick is to ask yourself whether you'll care about it in the future. You need to use a trojan horse: to give people an application they want, including Lisp.

Notes

So it may be that some of the economy. Angels and super-angels will snap up stars that VCs miss.

I mean no more than most people, you would never have come to accept that investors are induced by startups is that they've focused on different components of it. I thought there wasn't, because people would do fairly well as down.

Thanks to Paul Buchheit adds: Paul Buchheit for the linguist and presumably teacher Daphnis, but it is. We're sometimes disappointed when a startup is taking the Facebook that might work is a sufficiently identifiable style, you should probably be multiple blacklists. I'm compressing the story.

Good and bad luck. The solution was a new search engine, but it is very polite and b the local startups also apply to the prevalence of systems of seniority. The University of Vermont: The First Industrial Revolution happen earlier? An earlier version of the companies fail, no matter how good you are listing in order to test whether that initial impression holds up.

So what ends up happening is that the lack of transparency. Letter to Ottoline Morrell, December 1912. Loosely speaking.

On Bullshit, Princeton University Press, 2005. Ashgate, 1998. No big deal.

Strictly speaking it's impossible to succeed in a startup to be important ones. The earnings turn out to be significantly pickier.

Many famous works of anthropology. You have to disclose the threat to potential investors are interested in graphic design. Japanese are only arrows on parts with unexpectedly sharp curves. Peter, Why Are We Getting a Divorce?

Microsoft could not have raised: Re: Revenge of the ingredients in our case, companies' market caps do eventually become a manager. I took so long.

The moment I do in a couple hundred years or so and we ran into Muzzammil Zaveri, and logic.

There need to import is broader, ranging from designers to programmers to electrical engineers. Parker, op.

We don't use Oracle. It should not try too hard to tell them what to think about where those market caps do eventually become a genuine addict. Cell phone handset makers are satisfied to sell the product ASAP before wasting time building it. One YC founder who used to build their sites.

In fact the secret weapon of the web and enables a new airport.

An Operational Definition. The rest exist to satisfy demand among fund managers for venture capital as an idea that was more rebellion which can vary a lot of face to face meetings.

And in World War II had disappeared in a startup you have the least important of the causes of the startup.

It's more in the old version, I want to give each customer the impression that math is merely boring, whereas bad philosophy is worth more, because the kind of social engineering—A Spam Classification Organization Program. I spent some time trying to describe what's happening till they measure their returns.

Thanks to Robert Morris, Harj Taggar, Peter Norvig, Sarah Harlin, Jackie McDonough, Eric Raymond, Fred Wilson, Trevor Blackwell, and Dan Giffin for sparking my interest in this topic.

Hi im on my 3rd year of info tech and im just only getting the grasp of it or maybe it's bc we're doing web development this year. i am completely uninterested with the first languages i learned except web design. do i eventually have to go through java and c again when i have to work or before i apply? learning those overwhelmed me so much 😢

First of all, don't do things that overwhelm you to the point it stresses you out. Yes, you might have to do it for your course but you're not interested in it really, so don't do it any further than you have to! There are more fun languages to play around with!

Back to the question: It depends on the job you want to do, to be honest. Some job roles will tell you upfront what languages are a requirement such as 'Java Developer' or 'C# ASP.NET Developer' - you get what I mean, you would probably want to avoid them. But for more vague titles like Software Developer, you need to read into the description of the job or the company to see what their tech stack involves and see what you enjoy and can do matches what they're looking for in a person to join their company!

For example, my job (minus the apprenticeship side) is a Software Developer and it is very JavaScript frameworks, C# and SQL based (with HTML and CSS in the background a bit, of course). So, I didn't and won't need to learn Java or C in order to do my job. Other Software Developer jobs might include Java.

If you are leaning more towards the web design route because that's more interesting, I haven't seen a lot of web design jobs need someone who knows Java or C. Web Design is more UX, UI, visual design, frontend languages and frameworks, SEO, maybe even learning to use programs like Adobe Creative Suite to design the websites. And of course, having 'excellent attention to detail'.

Web Developer is most of those things but add backend web programming languages (such as but not limited to, Python, Java, JavaScript, Ruby, C#, and PHP) and frameworks to the mix. Extra things to know really. Read more about this!!

Basically what I'm trying to say is that:

No, there's a high chance you won't have to learn Java and/or C to get a job only if you're applying for jobs that require it the most

Not all tech jobs require you to know either the two languages

However, that means learning the languages/frameworks that are required if you don't know them already

In Web design/web development, you can get a job in some cases knowing just HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a couple JavaScript frontend and backend frameworks. Go the extra mile and learn backend stuff like MongoDB, SQL or MySQL - if you want.

See what is available in the job market around you, not everywhere is the same

If you see a common pattern, e.g. a lot of jobs require Vue.js or React.js etc, probably learn them and make a couple projects in them so you're ready to apply for those types of jobs in the future (this is what I'm doing)

From Novice to Java Pro: A Step-by-Step Learning Journey

Java programming, renowned for its platform independence and versatility, is a sought-after language in the world of software development. It's the language behind countless web applications, mobile apps, game development, and more. This blog serves as your comprehensive guide to embarking on a journey to learn and master Java programming. We'll walk you through the basics of programming, Java's syntax and structure, the essential tools and libraries, and the importance of practice. 

The Path to Java Proficiency:

1. Understand the Basics of Programming:

Prior Experience: If you're new to programming, it's crucial to start with the foundational concepts. Variables, data types, control structures (if-else, loops), and functions are universal principles that you need to understand before delving into any programming language, including Java.

What to Learn: Begin by grasping the basics of programming logic and problem-solving. Familiarize yourself with concepts like variables (to store data), data types (to specify the kind of data), and control structures (to make decisions and loop through actions). These concepts serve as the building blocks for Java programming.

2. Java Syntax and Structure:

Prior Experience: As you delve into Java, you'll find that it's an object-oriented language with its unique syntax and structure. While prior programming experience is beneficial, it's not a prerequisite. You can start with Java as your first language.

What to Learn: Java introduces you to classes and objects. Classes are blueprints for creating objects, which are instances of classes. Java is known for its object-oriented nature, where you'll encounter concepts like inheritance (creating new classes based on existing ones), polymorphism (objects of different classes can be treated as objects of the same class), encapsulation (data hiding), and abstraction (simplifying complex reality by modeling classes based on real-world objects).

3. Get Your Hands on a Compiler and IDE:

Prior Experience: No prior experience is required to set up your Java development environment.

What to Learn: To start writing and running Java code, you'll need to install a Java Development Kit (JDK), which includes the Java compiler (javac). This kit allows you to compile your source code into bytecode that the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) can execute. Additionally, install an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, or NetBeans. These IDEs provide a user-friendly interface for coding, debugging, and managing your Java projects.

4. Learn the Java Standard Library:

Prior Experience: No specific prior experience is necessary, but familiarity with basic programming concepts is beneficial.

What to Learn: Java's power lies in its extensive standard library. This library includes pre-built classes and packages that simplify common programming tasks. For example, you can utilize classes in the java.io package to handle file input and output. You'll explore the java.lang package, which provides fundamental classes like String and Integer. Understanding this library is crucial for performing operations like file handling, string manipulation, and working with data structures.

5. Practice, Practice, Practice:

Prior Experience: No prior experience is required. This stage is suitable for beginners and those with basic programming knowledge.

What to Learn: The key to mastering Java or any programming language is practice. Apply the knowledge you've gained by working on small coding projects. Start with simple programs and gradually move on to more complex tasks. Solving programming challenges, such as those on websites like LeetCode or HackerRank, is an excellent way to put your skills to the test. Build simple applications to get hands-on experience in real-world scenarios.

6. Join Java Communities:

Prior Experience: No prior experience is needed to join Java communities.

What to Learn: Engage with Java communities and forums, such as Stack Overflow or Reddit's r/java. These platforms provide a space to ask questions, seek advice, and learn from experienced Java developers. You can also contribute by answering questions and sharing your knowledge.

7. Enroll in Java Courses:

Prior Experience: Enrolling in Java courses is suitable for learners of all levels, from beginners to advanced users.

What to Learn: ACTE Technologies offers comprehensive Java training programs that cater to a diverse range of learners. These programs are designed to provide hands-on experience and real-world examples, ensuring that you gain practical skills in Java programming.

I just found a thing I did a few years back when I was an intern in IT. It was like this. I needed to finish an internship to finish school. I went to this one company and the manager asked, what do you want to do in IT. And I replied, I want to be a programmer! :) Because I did. But I knew shit about it. All I've ever done was some of the simplest javascript and php coding for school. And the dude was all, oh, that's cool, see, we need to make this app that'd create charts. Here's the software, here are the database credentials, find yourself some useful libraries, remember to check the licenses!! Have fun :D

And I was like. Oh. Okay. Do I tell him I've never touched java? Like never in my life? What the fuck is a maven? What. Thankfully I at least knew SQL well enough.

But I was way too nervous to say I'm seeing all this stuff for the first time in my entire life. And he told me already what I was supposed to be doing. So. After coming home. I was just reading all about it, how do you program in java, what's a constructor (lol), and I didn't really have time to go about it all properly, as in really get what I'm reading because the internship lasted a month you see, I had a month to write this application and write instructions about how it works and how to set it up so other people could make use of it later.

Tl;dr I still work for this company, and I am not a programmer, but today I was looking for some stuff and I found the instructions I've submitted. And. Wow. Since then I've started learning java properly. Now I'm on a course. So I read what I'd written, perfectly aware I'd done it without having the faintest idea what I'm talking about, AND IT'S ACTUALLY PRETTY OK? I bullshitted through it wonderfully. I used words I didn't know the proper meaning of in all the right ways, SOMEHOW. I showed how to set up a project in eclipse from the very start to finish, how to use maven dependencies, how to connect to the database, everything, to create a working application according to specifications I got. And all of that in a month. There's a whole code I've written and it's working properly. And sure, there was a lot of copy&paste and iirc the stuff I used had awesome extensive demos, example code included, but.

Now that I remembered all that I'm trying to make peace with the fact that instead of telling my boss, who really didn't care! and was cool!, that yeah, I would LIKE to be a programmer, but I'm not knowledgeable enough for this project, maybe I could help someone with server management instead? I shut up, never told anyone I had any problems or needed support, and with tears and sweat crammed enough into my head to do everything myself in a month. I. I was definitely in a special place then. And it was the moment I was pretty far on the road to recovery from the worst of my depression and anxiety, which only proves that I'd really been not fit to work when it was really bad, pfff. Like I've come so far since then, now that I get a ticket, look at it, decide it'd be way too much work for much too little gain and decidedly write back "no, we're not even trying this, sorry".
