I'm developing an OS. I tried running it on the laptop that's on the ground. Everything works fine except text mode. There is no output when running it in text mode(not the high resolution one shown on image). Since the OS sends all data that is printed to the first serial port I might as well read the output from the serial ports. Since the laptop I use for development doesn't have any serial ports I had to use the older Windows 98 PC. For unknown reasons I could not get any output from the serial ports so I gave up.
tl;dr I wasted some time trying to debug my OS.

I've switched from pycharm to sublime to vsocde in a month, now vim is catching my eye, my mentor will kill me if i started using vim now but it's freaking interesting, will be learning a little bit of vim, will stick to vscode for long term i guess.12

Fuck those groupmates that leech off me. I can easily finish this project in a week but they are being a burden to me. They're not doing anything.2

We use some odd names during development cycles as devs.
Anyone have favorite Git repository or code names for projects you have worked on?
I had project "furry-wookie" for a personal project once upon a time.5 -
When I start reading the Linux kernel code in order to understand it during internship. It's so complex, so enormous for I but a high school student.

Yesterday,
I was reading the code from my mentor and plugging it into my project.
I noticed a statement that at that moment seemed buggy to me.
Asked my mentor if that's needed, he looked at it and said no it's not needed remove it and said thank you to me.
Later, I noticed that statement wasn't extra at all, but some part of my code was not as it was supposed to be hence that statement seemed buggy.
I should be telling this to my mentor but i liked that thank you. :/ what will happen when he finds out that ?? lol2 -
I want to make an mobile app(Android, don't have any apple products). Please give me some ideas, I cannot come up with any. I'm not intending to sell the app(nor publish it to the Play Store because I don't have a dev Google account)4

That very moment when you start to visualize your workflow after hours of head scratching, and realize how simply it could be implemented with so much lesser lines of code in comparison to what you thought previously.
