W3schools is a piece of shit that shouldn't be used anyway. They publish inaccurate information and always have. Plus, we have mdn, a similar concept for a website just executed 1000% better.

[-] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I've just started learning to code. ._. I have no Idea yet what is good and what not. I just looked up an example for Boolean and W3 Schools was the first that came up.

Why is it so bad? Everything Ive read so far from there was pretty accurate. But it was mostly beginner Stuff tho.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

Like I said, they have incorrect information. I can't recommend MDN enough, especially because they have browser compatibility info

[-] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 11 months ago

Beginner stuff is good enough as far as I remember, just try not to rely on it too much in the long term (since MDN is also a good alternative)

[-] beejjorgensen@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

I don't think it's bad--it's impossible to make error-free material, and it's more error-free than not, for sure.

But other people are right: you'll "graduate" to MDN and not look at W3 Schools again.

Did you just commented just because you saw W3School and didn't even read the image ?

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -4 points 11 months ago

That was hours ago and I lost context. However had I actually done that, justified.

[-] Kuinox@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

You are just spreading toxicity on a funny post.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

I'm spreading reality. What a drama queen

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 11 points 11 months ago

W3schools does tend to be more beginner friendly that MDN

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 6 points 11 months ago

Yes, programming is not fun

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world -2 points 11 months ago
[-] Kuinox@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

They still have some few good content. I didn't found an equivalent of the (inexhaustive) selector list of W3School on mdn.

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 1 points 11 months ago

Ive had to make websites on networks that block mdn but not w3schools for some reason

[-] aluminium@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

That lack of Omega 3 is already showing its effect.

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 28 points 11 months ago

Omega 2 is fine for most use cases and it’s useful for legacy support.

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 14 points 11 months ago

Why upgrade if nothing broke?

[-] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Nobody tell this guy about omega v6

[-] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 11 months ago

Same goes for 5 people who saw this post (so far), apparently

[-] aport@programming.dev 10 points 11 months ago

Fish is for cats

Tuna? Salmon!

[-] Alexxxolotl@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago

B-b-but fish is so good!! I like it more than chicken or beef actually... Especially if it's in sushi (´┓`*)drool~

Yeah, now that you mention it :)

[-] Catpurple@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 11 months ago

Seafood is great, as long as you live near a coast. I think that gives a better chance that that "fishy" smell and taste is not overwhelming, because if that's what you don't like about it, I'm pretty sure it mostly shouldn't be that way, I think it tends to be more mild the fresher they are. When in-land stores and restaurants import fish, it could be longer between catch and cooking than a coastal place.

Or you just don't like any seafood and nothing will change your mind, also valid.

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Seafood is meh if you didn't grow up eating it. Source: I grew up around Dallas (where fried catfish is as close as you usually get to fresh seafood) and I've lived in Seattle for >10 years without developing a taste for seafood.

[-] stifle867@programming.dev 1 points 11 months ago

Deep fried and fresh is okay. This includes fish, calamari rings, etc. Anything else is a hard no including oysters, prawns, non deep fried fish, lobsters, crabs, etc

[-] Miaou@jlai.lu 7 points 11 months ago

If you need to deep fry something to like it, you don't actually like it

[-] stifle867@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago

Couldn't agree more 🤣 That's why I tell people I don't like fish even though I do technically eat it.

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago

What if I like deep fried food?

[-] DroneRights@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

Seafood is great as long as you don't think killing is wrong

[-] clb92@feddit.dk 8 points 11 months ago

Respectfully, they are.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Smoked fish is godlike

[-] DroneRights@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago
[-] Morphit@feddit.uk 1 points 11 months ago

No, that's crows. Your thinking of school.

[-] peter@feddit.uk 1 points 11 months ago

Who are the fish murdering?

[-] DroneRights@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

Fishermen^-1
