Proof i typically underestimate my own self: I just remembered building a browser In Visual Basic in middle school, in a day at my friends house…. How the hell did I do that?? I recognize some of the syntax, but i don’t remember Visual Basic… but THATS how I know it looks like C… AND I DONT KNOW C! so wtf!

Wow you're high

Edit: how is your version control system going?

I don't know of any Basic that looks like C.

@Demolishun Visual Basic

@retoor alright. Still an unpolished turd

@sureAzure I have programmed Visual Basic. It doesn't look anything like C.

@Demolishun I also don’t know any of those languages now… i might just be talking about var

@Demolishun cuz thinking about it now, it’s all from fuckin C

@sureAzure C is big Daddy

Ah, I get what you mean now.

@fzammetti I get upvotes for stuff in SO that I answered about Python years ago. I go look at the question and my answer and have zero clue what the context is or what the code does. I have flushed more than I know I think.

@fzammetti @Demolishun
Yeah. I set out on this career at the same age as my friend apparently, he became a software engineer and apparently I was just fuckin around cuz, as far as my brain is concerned, I started learning a few months ago… but at least I know now i can do this as long as those neural pathways are still standing… little shaky but, i think I can manage getting across.

Of course I have a different set of languages I’m looking into now….

You got this. Have fun with it!

If you squint hard enough, you can see the similitudes between VB and C, these being that the two of them are compiled languages.

Just kidding, VB6 was legit (I don't care what anyone says)

If you squint hard enough you can see any language with the fittest syntax/Semantics to be adopted 😂

@fzammetti I’m just happy we can look back through the tree. I honestly don’t know where I stand yet when it comes to that area of software development (programming); shit… if I’m being 1000% honest, I haven’t even mastered git yet😂 I’m just remembering shit… but I do remember being excited to visually manipulate a language with low level control.

@fzammetti I mean, it had complete access to the entirety of Windows in a simple to use and learn syntax with a nice fast IDE, desktop apps written in it were fast and easy to develop, I can see the hate because there was a lot of bad code because a lot of beginners were able to work with it, but the reputation due to beginner code has nothing to do with the niceties of the language and environment. I do miss it, on another note I did like the way Turbo Pascal and then Delphi worked, it was bomb man.

I would much rather have desktop apps than a full fuckload of web based garbage

@AleCx04 🔥

Getting emotional about all the positivity vb6 receives. It was great indeed. Delphi IDE was also nice but I hated the syntax.
