its also hard to edit at all with blocks your really limited if you only use the blocks in the tool box

you will have to type anyways to change the names of variables so why not just use text

I forced myself to do text and I think it is easier doing text after I forced myself

its a good thing to understand text better than blocks/nodes because you can get grasps on more options in code.org and you can get used to other programming languages if you so choose to push yourself there.

the only reason to use blocks is cuz whenever a non programmer sees you using text they start yelling that you're a hacker

    person im aware of hackers and crackers. different purposes but same general idea.

    either way its against the law and you will still stay poor

    unless your one of those nerdy government hackers, who work for the government to lower the price of other country's money and destabilize their economy, then maybe you wont be poor and wanted

      person that's not exactly the case. yes, hacking is illegal but only if used in malicious intent to destroy someone else's property or content. there are ways to earn money by hacking and one prime example is taking in a request from a company to hack into their stuff. if you partner up with the company like google and make it into their servers, they can find the vulnerability and patch it. then you can get paid to do so. hacking is a great skill to learn, just not to hurt others.

      TLDR; hacking is illegal if used in bad ways. hacking can earn you money by making a deal with a company to help them find issues in their code.

      then is it really hacking tho? or is it just being like a form of tester?

      on google it says
      hacking

      noun
      the gaining of unauthorized access to data in a system or computer.
      "outlawing hacking has not stopped it"
      checkig the code would be authorized

      there is a diffrence between programming and hacking

      although i see where your coming from, i saw a video about "white hat hackers", although are they really hackers?

        person I'd say that they are as you are gaining access to data you're not supposed to have. which makes it unauthorized. so as long as you don't directly have access to the program, you'd be hacking into thier systems.

        for everyone here:

        there's a guy on discord who i used to know named xaxa or something
