EDIT: And an hour or two after the above post, I stared feeling calm and peaceful for no good reason whatsoever.

Yeah, it was a hormone swing. Definitely.

Anyway, sorry to clog up your f-lists with that. Let me say something more constructive!

The CodeYear track on Codecademy is actually much better than the current official tracks. It taught me some information about JavaScript that I *hadn't* learned during the JavaScript track, which I appreciated.

HabitRPG... is helping. I'm better able to keep track of my personal grooming, my Codecademy progress, and my exercise (such as it is). It's also helping me curb my bad habits. *looks woefully at bag of chips* I only wish I'd discovered it earlier.

If I haven't recommended From Eroica With Love, I should have. It is friggin' hilarious! ...Unfortunately, the particular comic subcompany that was selling it in the U.S. has now shut down, so yeah, scanlations are the only way. :\ (I got Volumes 1-15 from a local comics shop that still had them in stock, so I have them in print, but others likely won't be so lucky. [Ha! Great impulse buy. Thank heavens the mod of badfic_quotes has a bajillion From Eroica With Love icons, so I'd been highly curious about the series for ages...])

Also, I recently read the The Book of Cthulhu anthology of Lovecraftian fiction, which was quite enjoyable. All of the stories were very well-written, and I hadn't read most of them before.

This kindly soul uploaded the MagiNation soundtrack to MediaFire, so I recommend picking it up if you remember that game. ...It doesn't properly have the title screen music, however, so I'd recommend this video instead for that one. THAT is the best track in the entire game. When I was a kid, I'd leave my GameBoy on the title screen for several minutes just to listen to it. Please give it at least one listen - it's worth it. I am seriously tempted to add a video-downloader to my current computer just so I can listen to it without having to be plugged into the internet. That should give you some idea... (Or perhaps that's nostalgia talking... but anyway. :) )

In other news? I've now unlocked the five-eggs-at-a-time spacing. EXCELLENT.

In Python,

You type

for THINGY in LIST:

not

for THINGY in LIST

as Python gets VERY tetchy about the lack of a colon. Deathly-Hallows!JKR/Python programming language OTP!!!

...Also, you use "def" to define a function, not "function". -_-;; I hadn't touched the Python section in a while - can you tell?

And 49% on Python. Hooray!
