@1989 oops XD the original's too big to post too

"IT LIVES!"

@Nanos Luckily I haven't sent him any code yet, just demonstrated what it does. It turns out he just wanted me to "write in my own words" (so to speak) a way more complex open source app that does something different to what he originally specified. And then use that in his own commercial product. If I did do that (I can't anyway), would I technically be stealing from the original devs? Just wondering.

Copy/paste from stack overflow. If it's not 100% the regex you need, change your project to whatever the regex you copied was for

That was my only computer for like 10 years!! It once survived a fall out of the boot of a moving car with barely a scratch. I finally replaced it when my overwatch team started asking who was running a hairdryer during every game... I say replaced, I still have it. Boyfriend's trying to persuade me to get Ubuntu on it so I can code in coffee shops like a coolguy. But it's so heavy...

@jelleken ah don't worry, I might be an internet weirdo anyway 😃

Hi, I'm not sure about python 3 but it should already be in there if you've got python 2.7 installed I think (source: http://ftp.ntua.gr/mirror/python/...)

@jelleken I'm actually working on my CV right now! I think the content is good (once I've made some changes anyway) but layout is kind of bleh. Just a standard word document really with headings and bullet points n stuff.

@jelleken tricky to answer without risking seeming like a dick I guess haha. You get that type of thing in sales interviews but they just want you to brag about how you sold more stuff than everyone else...

@jelleken well you've added more stuff to my Shit To Google list at least... 😂 personal questions sounds ominous though. Do you work well in a team, stuff like that? Or like, stuff about your hobbies?

And congrats on the job! 🎉

That's amazing perseverance, I'm so happy for you!! 😊

Nice one :D got any tips for someone in your situation? How'd you nail it?
