Hello again, scratch!

noverify

Hello everyone! I learned programming with scratch when i was about 10 years old, but moved on with real programming languages later on ! The last thing i remember making on my old scratch account was a chat project that doesn't allow bad words.
I moved on to programming languages like java, then to c / c++, which I can use flawlessly today.
I decided to revisit scratch again, and wow, I still remember most of the blocks, but there is also much new stuff like custom blocks! While exploring it, I got the feeling to try it out again and got lost in code for about 6 hours! I realized what a pain it is to use scratch for higher mathematics, as there are no matrices or arrays, but it is still very fun and challenging to use it! I also remember the first version of scratch, that was being delivered as a program! Those times were good times, and now I want to say “Hello” again!

Cool! Have you ever done Lua programming?

aII toasters toast toast, but what happens when there are no longer toasters being produced? will their technology simply become obsolete, with humans moving onto bigger, better things? will toast become a distant memory, written in textbooks of the future as foods us simpler generations ate? who's to say! society is constantly moving, changing, evolving, ideas being built upon, improved upon, theories being proven or disproven. are we but a blip on the timeline? sure, our names may not be remembered, but that's not the point. you can make a change. you can make a difference. you can make the world better, even if you don't know yet. and the first step is to go for it. even if you are afraid of failure. going back to the example of toasters, do you know off the top of your head who invented them? no? have you used one? probably. so, even if you don't remember my name, if I was able to help awnser your question, that is enough. if I was able to help you, even in the slightest way, this could push you to continue with scratch and not give up after the program crashes, and maybe one day learn other programming languages and change the world. everything is a cause and effect reaction, new inventions lead to the technology of the future, and even as the generations of the past are slowly forgotten, their influence lives on to this day, affecting how the world eventually turned out and how it will be for generations to come.

and, without toasters, we wouldn't have toast.

I have heard of it, haven't tried, but at first glance it looked like javascript to me! Will maybe check it out! Do you know rust? I recently heard about it and really want to try it out!

One special thing I haven't mentioned is that i know how to write assembly, java bytecode and dalvik (android app) bytecode. I really love coding in such languages, but for amateurs it's very hard to learn as there are almost no guides on the internet. I'm also a fan of esoteric programming languages like whitespace for example
