>>/9014/ > Don't read this line if you don't wanna read drama-related crap. is talking about yourself a kind of drama? So, does this mean that it is cool to avoid any kind of venting? Do you get anything in return by doing this? > I think someone called me a script kiddie in the past. I'll call him an idiot outsider or someone who wasn't paying attention. so I see that both of you ended up with derogatory terms. I see... > I was never arrogant/showy/trying-to-look-cool about my endeavors. it´s cool not to have an egocentric behaviour. On the other hand, you seem to downplay your personal thoughts by calling them crap. It raises a few doubts here. > I was just imparting the information related to what I was doing, for various reasons, such as trying to work through a problem. I use other people's scripts if I needed to, but I think I mainly made my own code and stuff to do what I wanted to do. so, you work on your own by approaching the issues in the most effective manner. Either you make it on your own but you also resort to using other scripts for shortening the time so that you can solve such problem. > Another reason that that someone got the impression of "script kiddie" from me: the code I posted is fairly simple, and sometimes it is obviously in an unfinished state. Code that's simple is great, especially if it works well. Simple code means that basically anyone can understand what's happening (including myself in the future) even without comments. so, such simplicity would induce misunderstandings because anyone could assume that it wasn´t yours. > I did progressively make some of my code more complex, but that was only on the basis that it had to be more complex to do all that I wanted it to do. Oh, and complex code is not necessarily better. Unfinished code that "just works" is fine, updates to it might break it: same idea of version control systems like git. VCSes can also simply record what the code looked like at one point. I may be an ignorant on the tech field when it comes to programming/coding but, as far I know, the most desirable methods that one needs to carry out are the most efficient ones. The reasons behind such selective methods are due to factors such as money and time. Considering that one only needs a PC for this (and other complementary devices), I guess that time is the defining variable that comes into play for choosing which script comes off as the most adequate for each case. > One of the reasons I shared code is because it was useful to me (e.g., referring back to it), and it could possibly be useful to others though that wasn't my direct intention usually. You shared it because it turned out to be successful for you. By spreading it out to other users, your idea consisted of reducing time with the help of others instead of running into troubles, right? > It wasn't like I was trying to impress anyone with whatever I coded/programmed; I did make one or more things which I think could be useful to others and that anyone could easily use and that could be considered good/great code. Then, you were definitely looking forward to getting more support from others in order to increase the productivity.
