A couple of days ago, I made a post on /c/technology, asking if you guys would be down to help build a "Chapo Learn2Code project". The response to this post was huge, and we quickly managed to put together a small team to start building this project. We're now back for some more formal recruitment!

First off: please let us know in the comment section if you would potentially be interested in attending a CS/opsec/tech class taught by a fellow chapo. We would also like to know what kind stuff you're interested in and would like to be learning with this project. The original post had some great ideas, but there's definitely room for more!

If you would like to help building this project, as a teacher, a helper, organizer, or resource gatherer, please DM me, you're more than welcome aboard.

Someone (Im sorry i forgot your name, please manifest yourself so I can congratulate you for having a cool idea) also mentioned a potential megathread on /c/technology where folks would post tech related questions, and other chapos would help them. This also sounds like a very good idea, so let us know what you think of that as well.

Finally, if you got any other input of any kind, we would also be more than glad to hear them!

Edit: Holy shit twenty three notifications lol. I'll come back to you after I get through my day, which should be not too late through your day you bunch of yankees.

    I tried to read C programming book on my own and gave up because of the asshole on Slack told me that if i can't figure it out than i should quit. A teacher would be a boon. Please let me know what or who do I have to contact to join as I want to learn and help anyway I can.

      That's a rough welcome. Please understand that not everyone in the field is an awful misanthrope and if you need help you're not a programming "lost cause."

        Thank you for your kindness. It was awhile ago as I was using this book: https://www.amazon.com/Effective-Introduction-Professional-Robert-Seacord/dp/1718501048/ref=sr_1_3?crid=DVPZH6G6BCTZ&dchild=1&keywords=c+programming&qid=1599021975&sprefix=c+prog%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-3

        I never had any programming experience and I got pretty far in it. I was stuck on a problem that required me to use division but I didn't know I could that in C due to lack of my experience.

      Fuck that Slack dickhead, pure neoliberal. What were you stuck on? Maybe someone in the comments can help you out.

        Thank you so much for even offering me your time and help. It was a while ago and from this book: https://www.amazon.com/Effective-Introduction-Professional-Robert-Seacord/dp/1718501048/ref=sr_1_3?crid=DVPZH6G6BCTZ&dchild=1&keywords=c+programming&qid=1599021975&sprefix=c+prog%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-3

        This was years ago but now i want to learn and give it another shot since this community is willing to help. Again, thank you so much, coom.

              Ah, you mislinked. You are talking about K&R, the C bible. It's a very fun book but maybe not the best introduction to programming as a whole.

            Yeah good on pointing that out, I smell a troll.

            Thank you so much for even offering me your time and help.

            Notice how I didnt even offer to help them personally.

            Chapo.chat is quite new and thus open to bullshit.

        I was learning from this book: https://www.amazon.com/Effective-Introduction-Professional-Robert-Seacord/dp/1718501048/ref=sr_1_3?crid=DVPZH6G6BCTZ&dchild=1&keywords=c+programming&qid=1599021975&sprefix=c+prog%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-3

        I now want to learn about blockchain and developing on it. But im willing to learn anything in programming with some guidance. Thank you again for willing to help me.
