Been fishing for 5 months straight (shore fishing only), went to thames, port bruce, port glasglow and all i ever caught was SMB, freshwater drum, LMB, yellow perch, and gar (outlier, caught this at lake st clair). Do you have any suggestions where to catch pike or trout? I dont care about walleye cause they seem impossible to catch unless you have a boat. Thank you! (i dont use boat, would only go for shore fishing.)

Any filipinos living in north america (Canada, America)? wanted to play barony sana. 4 man party, kinda feels like an mmorpg game but 3D. I know it kinda feels like minecraft dahil sa graphics BUT IT ISNT REALLY, sobrang layo. It's really good, on sale as 2$ rn. I dont mind with the servers pero mas maganda kasi pag same timezone e, hehe thanks!

Im so scared of skin cancer. For context i forgot to apply sunscreen on my shoulders and back part of my neck cause i didnt think i would go for a sleeveless tee until i sat down and started fishing. Plus i didnt expect it was that hot cause it was actually cloudy, was probably the uv index that caused me the burnn? Idk. Im from canada and im not white, im medium fair skinned.

i dont usually get sunburnt, last time i got some was prolly when i was 11. Will i get sunburnt? Up to now ive only seen small little bumps that look like white heads (but not fluid filled). Please help i dont mind the pain, i just dont want to get cancer and im not sure if this incident could get me cancer. Thanks.

I know this is not the subreddit for C language, but i have learned a bit of C and if I could try to relate and try to make things click as if some "concepts" were similar, then it would most likely make me understand faster and much better. Please understand me from where I'm at because I'm really struggling to understand the heap stack and stuff and copying by reference, so I'll start.

Note: I did many research on this and I have concluded that I am correct, but I would really wanna be sure if my understanding is correct and I would like to be corrected if what I think is wrong or right, hence the reason why I am posting this. Also, I am self studying and not enrolled in a school, no programming friends, so I have literally no one to confirm with. I just want to be confident that I understand what I learned, so please bare with me, thank you. Would be much better to reply this if you have some understanding on how pointers work in C, but will try to reiterate here.

1.) Pointers in C are basically special variables. Variables have their own memory addresses, so that doesnt excempt pointers from having one. Both normal variables and pointers have their own memory addresses. So the gimmick of pointers is that they refer (or point) to the memory address of the variable they are assigned. Basically, you assign a variable towards a pointer variable, and once you call that pointer variable, what pops up is the memory address of the variable it is assigned to.

2.) My understanding of copying by reference (this refers to objects, not primitives. primitives are copying by value) is similar to this, where a variable has its own memory address, and the memory address it holds ALSO refers to the memory address of the object. is this how it works?

e.g.

let person = {
name: "Joanna",
age: 18,
height: "195cm"
};

What's happening here is that person variable holds a memory address (say 0x100) and the object {...} has its own memory address too. (say 0x7ff...). 0x7ff...(object's memory address**)** is sitting at 0x100 (person variable's memory address) so basically we can conclude that person variable is referencing to 0x7ff... right?

Unlike copy by value where you do e.g.

let age = 18;

What happens here is that age has its own memory address (say 0x101) and the value 18 is represented by bits (say 10001 1010101 10001) and sits directly on the memory address of the variable.

Conclusion: In my understanding, they're similar to a point that they generally point or refer to something. For pointers in C, the pointer points to a memory address of a variable, while in JS, the normal variable points or refers to a memory address of the object (there are no pointers in JS, i'm just saying generally speaking they are atleast referencing a memory address)

Final question: are all of my understandings correct? Thank you for your patience with this one. I know i shouldn't be in too deep as a beginner but I genuinely want to learn the difference between copy by reference and copy by value. (please note i am not talking about pass by reference, but copy by reference.) Thank you once again!

Hello all, please dont be harsh with me cause I'm really new with JS. Doing free code camp right now and I am just wondering if destructuring assignments are often used. e.g.

I come from C and really the amount of syntax in this language is just overwhelming, is this normal when learning JS? when does this end T_T

const person = {
  name: "Bob",
  age: 25,
  job: "Designer",
  city: "New York"
};


const { job, city, ...remainingProperties } = person;


// { name: "Bob", age: 25 }
console.log(remainingProperties);

It's really hard for me to remember all these syntax to be honest so I'm not sure if its wraps for me in this language. I got so used to syntax where every variable is declared 1 by 1. Here are the questions once again to be organized:

1. is it just me or the amount of syntax in this language is just overwhelming like its just so many, is this normal when learning JS?
2. can I opt to not use it? or should I get used to it starting from now since it will really be beneficial?
3. Like how important it is that it must it be used? is it treated like an "alternative" way of a syntax or is it really required? I really dont get the importance of it. Yes I get it cuts off multiple lines of code, but wouldn't you have a better readability, which makes you able to trace which properties are assigned or whatever rather than having a super concise syntax whilst remembering that "oh, this goes through here"
4. I've searched all over the net and people say they like it for readability and conciseness, however i really dont see it being readable at all, i mean it is but it makes my brain lag for like a minute or two. Readability is usually defined by lesser time for you to have to read the specific line of code right? If it really is readable as they say, then is this something like a skill issue and I have to just get used to it?
5. I know this topic is usually about destructuring assignments, but I felt this emotion towards arrow functions too. Like are arrow functions just "alternatives" or at some point I must be required to learn it? I really feel comfortable with making normal functions rather than arrow functions to be honest.

Thank you all! Please dont give me remarks like "Just give up if you can't do the learning" cause that's what I'm here for, Im asking for genuine advice and looking to see if what I feel is normal. Thank you once again.

Hello everyone, wanted to get into cybersecurity for fun and learn cybersec. I heard there are websites called HTB (hack the box) and THM(try hack me) but its not completely free unfortunately unlike freecodecamp (absolute goat TBH. would donate them if i had money!)

Do you have any websites you can suggest which is for free and learn ethical hacking? I am a complete beginner, so i would like to have good suggestions on what websites are good and for free. Im more interested in the website side of things. cybersecurity

I have researched around the web and it says deliver lang talaga at physical copy lang daw yung magagawa nila but my mom kept insisting nakakuha daw sila ng NBI clearance via e file. Is this true? I applied at this website https://clearance.nbi.gov.ph/ no where in this website has stated they can send a renewed NBI via softcopy (e-file) dont they?

Im not sure if im required to state as to why im asking this, but I want to keep it to myself as for why I'm asking this sana. Thank you for the comments!

when I fish I like to troll very slowly, fished at lake st. clair, lake erie, and river thames but never have I caught walleye and pikes. are they really this hard to catch or it might be a me problem?

need a genuine advice for this one please because the fishes i caught are just either pumpkin seeds, bluegills, rockbass, yellow perch, and gar.

for context the baits I use are either minnows, worms, or shrimp (caught a gar with this one)

I saw a youtube video saying valorant has now adjusted the rr gains and rr you losses, well for some reason its still not taking effect cause I topfragged a lost match (had around 1.5 kd) and still lost 25 rr. Enemies were around my elo. 10-13 score too. these guys lying or has it still not taken effect yet?

Thanks.

Interested in fishing at Fanshawe Conservation Area and would like to get good fish. Would like to ask for tips like:

1. Where's a good spot for good fish? (Im not expecting big fish but if there is, well hope as well could get some!)
2. Is it allowed to cook the fish you catch from the dam? And even if it is legal, do you think the fish there are safe to eat (cooked of course)? I grew up in a tropical island so I'm used to cooking saltwater fishes and have really 0 to no problems dealing with health paranoia in fishes.
3. Additional cool tips would be appreciated, thanks! :)

I am a 20 y/o brother and my sister is 10 years old. My parents mostly do not have time for my sister so I'm usually the only person left with her at home. Problem is, I've been observing her use the phone all day and do nothing but watch reels or play games but I really don't want her to do that anymore.

She's struggling to understand simple things whenever I try to explain something and that might probably be correlated to the screentime she has with her phone and watch or listen to brain rot reels (i've read research about cognitive decline the less you use your brain) and this time I want her to learn ACTUAL skills. We've recently bought a keyboard and I want her to learn the keyboard (please note i am not forcing her to get obsessed with keyboard, or do the keyboard at all, she herself asked for a keyboard)

I know the actual solution is to cut the screen time of the phone but most of the time I get guilt tripped when she says that "I barely have time to connect with my friends" or "I've been doing this ____ all day long and i dont want to anymore." (let's say the underline is the trained skill like keyboard piano lessons, or ukelele lessons, etc.) I really want her to focus or enjoy on a skill and do it for like 1-3 hours but she absolutely can't just set her mind on to it and I don't understand why. She doesn't even study anymore and most of her time is spent on reels and whatever, and I really dont know how to solve this problem.

In summary, y only problem is that I know the solution is to cut off screen time but every time she complains I get guilty and have pity on her so I end up letting her use the phone instead. Please help, Thank you.

Hello everyone, I need help for the best piano teaching youtube channel because my sister (10 yo) wants to learn how to play piano. I am looking for a piano teacher on youtube where the vibes is good for children, I don't really want the vibe where the teacher is really that old school scary strict because I dont want my sister to be disappointed.

she is still a kid and I want her to enjoy playing keyboard, and I am so desperate for advice because I don't want our keyboard to sit at home untouched. (she asked for a keyboard btw so its not like im forcing her to strictly do piano lessons on youtube like a prisoner)
