i'm concluding an associate level course of system analysis and i'm glad that right now i don't rely on it to eat and pay the bills, having a regular job on my previous bachelor's degree. by the end of the course the college was pushing so hard on knowledge we didn't (and they didn't passed on properly) had that i and others had to rely on vibe coding. now that i'm about to pick up my diploma, i'm gonna focus on learning real computer science without the pressure of grades and perhaps have a better chance if i have to apply for an IT job.

croatia is under a ustashe regime once again.
op would be conversational with a significant part of the world, and they're not to blame for colonialism. just by learning spanish, english and portuguese they would be able to talk to anyone south of rio grande in the u.s., and talk to some former british colonies in africa and asia. put some russian and french and you would be left with just perhaps middle east, east and southeast asia.
knowing that and learning some arabic and chinese (throw in some language of some east or southeast asian country if they want) and there's not much left, but to discuss how colonialism brought the world to this situation.
i never did really care about income and property taxes (including vehicle related taxes), even though they can be a pain in the *ss. i believe they're a fair share of contribution to society, at least in the capitalist context that we live in. but it bothers me product taxes, especially those levied upon non-processed or low-processed food, medicine, basic hygiene and cleaning, basic clothing and products not produced in your country when said country doesn't have an industrial policy to encourage the production of these items internally.
in my late teens and early adulthood i'd lash out for being slightly teased about relationships or sexuality. back in my early and mid-teens i would frequently be bullied about not performing manly enough, not having a girlfriend or even having a slightly deviant (or maybe syndromic) look. even now, if i see something that passingly reminds me of these experiences, i play along, but then after i have to take sometime alone to breathe and reassure myself that these experiences are not related.
it's not a moral problem per se. it doesn't matter if members of the so called 1% are personally good or bad. if they reached those positions then they are performing roles that are prejudicial for the society.
politics is less about people's morality or intentions. it's about what they effectively do.
wait, you're seeking validation from an online web forum?
guy's just finding out he's been used by the west, hopefully he'll get the idea in the next 3 years.
you got it wrong.
accurate.
i understand your side, but that's up to op. personally for me i was thinking about learning a native local language, perhaps tupi or nheengatu, and one from the african diaspora such as yoruba, kimbundu or kikongo. but that's on me, and that's on op too, regardless of what we think. it's not a particularly picky topic in my opinion.
