Or how ?bout feelings (warm fuzzy good ones) starting the code like?yummy, code/code/code? Or, say an image/emoji of yummy?<br><br>And<br><br>Keeping in mind, None of it can be random. Leaving our everything to chance? I don?t like those odds because if you fail to plan? . See? Yeah. K.<br><br>So, CODERS, here?s my ask, Can YOU find Your sexy warm fuzzy ? love language - in Your head AND THEN, find a way to translate those yummy good feelings into code, in a manner that matches YOUR view/feel/intent/fuzzy good really yummy stuff that u code about.<br><br>Simply, when you look at code?I?m assuming that You do see/feel/yum? because well, I don?t know?You tell me, right code, see? Purpose, maybe? Curious and interesting, pretty for sure? Scary, we don?t know, have we even tried?<br><br>Possible? I don?t even know what an internet is so, again, you tell me?<br><br>m<br><br><br><br><br>From: Projects <projects-bounces@vicpimakers.ca> on behalf of George Bowden <gtbowdeng@gmail.com><br>Reply-To: Talk about Raspberry Pi / embeded projects <projects@vicpimakers.ca><br>Date: Friday, October 9, 2020 at 5:16 PM<br>To: Talk about Raspberry Pi / embeded projects <projects@vicpimakers.ca><br>Subject: Re: [VicPiMakers Projects] Jim's Challenge (re-posted from Slack)<br><br>Sexy code...
