Yeah but fuck all that python is good enough for most beginners. Variables, scope, loops, functions, operators... Once you get some of the principles down switching to C++ or similar isn't nearly as bad.
Being a person that tried to learn C/C# from scratch in my early days python was a good gateway language.
My elderly dad fell for something similar trying to call HP support, he googled the number and the top result was some bullshit. They had him set up remote access and compromised all his data. Old man had to reset everything.
He called me saying what happened, I had him shut down and unplug. I recovered what I could but he lost a lot of data.
This shit should be illegal. Like, I'm sure it is technically but there shouldnt be unofficial sponsored results above legitimate sources.
Definitely, I have a few group chats. It's good for general memery and snapping funny things throughout the day.
Fr my dog loses her shit over pumpkin and greenies she will love these.
Myth busters had to be the worst offender in that realm. "here a 2 minute recap of that things you just saw 5 minutes ago."
Same here, I still do a lot of complex problem solving and modeling but excel/python handles a lot of the dirty work for me.
My favorite is summoning salt.
That's something, lol. I'm not irreplaceable but it would be an absolute clusterfuck if I left, at least for a while.
I do a good job of documenting everything but so much of my work relies on scripts that I wrote and never properly deployed - a mix of python and VBA, and all my reporting relies on an API connection that nobody else maintains and other than a handful of queries I shared, nobody really knows how to use it.
I'm not trying to be shitty but it's job security.
Probably when you book from browser cookies?
You could get around this but 99% of people won't.
Also pandas and matplotlib but maybe that's just me.
