KYT: Extreme Coder

[Sinkhead]

The 'temper being questioned during this session is Extreme Coder!

For those of you that are new to the game, here are the rules:

• One user will be put on the questioning stand every two days
• Once that user's session of questioning starts, anybody can ask that user a reasonable amount of questions they want via posting on the thread
• These questions can be about anything. Personal life, GBAtemp/internet life, pet peeves, musical tastes, "what if" situations... ANYTHING!
• Please try to post all your questions at once, in one solid post
• Upon receiving questions, the user that is in the spotlight can answer them at anytime, as long as it's before their week is up

This quirky little activity will help us get to know our fellow 'tempers even better in an exciting, chaotic manner!

Hi Guys!

i. Just how extreme are you?
ii. What languages do you code in?
iii. What's Egypt like?
iiii. Do you know hieroglyphics?

iiiii. What's your name?
iiiiii. I don't think these Roman Numerals are correct, are they?
iiiiiii. Nope.
iiiiiiii. Baby Hedgehog is cute, right?
iiiiiiiia. If not, why?

i. Extreme enough to take a picture of Chuck Norris without fainting

ii. Ah, we get to technical questions this early?

Well, I usually use C/C++, since that's mainly what I can use on the NDS, and on the PC too. But I also taught myself some Python, and I remember some cursed lessons of BASIC from school. I occasionally try to mess around with Java

iii.
This might be a long one, so I will divide it:
Most people here are generally nice, and they usually invite you for lunch or a cup of tea, even if they don't know you, although you can easily spot drug dealers, thiefs, and thugs more easily than other countries.
And there is a huge divide between people, those who can read and write, and those who can't. And most people are not exactly rich. Government workers and lots of other jobs barely earn $90 or around that.. A MONTH!

and the middle class is almost not there. There is the extremely poor, and the extremely rich. Although I'm lucky to be in the middle, my family earns about $2500, which is not bad at all here.
But the government itself is corrupted like hell. They keep leeching money from people, yet they barely improve this shadow of a country (if that means anything

)
And usually the weather used to be good, according to what I heard (This is my second year in Egypt), but last Summer, it used to get to 45-50C, and this Winter it reached 2C Monday Morning, and is expected to reach 0C next week :/
Sorry for the long rant.

iiii. Well, I can spell hrth, GBATemp and TPi. Oh, and Extreme too

iiiii. My name is Ahmad Yasser, coder, gamer, Temper in training

iiiiii. Nope, but they're good enough for me, since they're coming from you

Although it gets hard to keep count of them

iiiiiii. HECK YES!

iiiiiiii. Aww

Isn't that the cutest thing you've ever seen? (Hint)
iiiiiiiia. Well, I like it, but are its spikes fully grown? Also, it'd be cuter if you could paint it blue

3. Explain your sex life using tropical rainforest birds.

6. Do I make sense?

1) I like Chocolate cake, who doesn't?

In fact, I'm eating one right now:

2) Mudkipz of course, it's rarer, and I like blue

Although I would choose a fusion between them if available, something like Midooks or something

3) There was this little rainbowed birdy, and he went to see the.. Oh wait, I have no sex life( I'm only 14/15 damn it

)
4) Well, I don't listen to lots of music, but I usually like Pop, and a few times I like Rock.
I also like Dragostea Din Tei (Numa)

Maya Hee..
Maya Hoo..
Maya Ha Ha..
5) Paper clips of course! They are reusuable, and you can make shapes with them when bored

6) Of course! You make as much sense as a bottle of water!... NVM

I should've known you guys would've asked me about programming languages

1) C/C++, but no specific reason, it's just what I learned first, and what I grew up with

And it seems most people use it.
2) BASIC, it's outdated, and I can't get along with it at all :/ Although FreeBasic is not that bad..
3) There are a few food Egyptian people like to eat:
Kushari: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kushari
Foul: QUOTEFoul (pronounced differently, /f??l/) is a Middle-Eastern food made from fava beans

and Tamia, but I can't find a Wikipedia articles for that. Oh wait, it's also called Falafel : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falafel
These are preferred in Egypt because they're cheap, very affordable for anyone. And they actually do taste nice.

4) In my previous apartment, I used to. But in this apartment, I can't, but I'm not really that sad about it. This one is twice as big as the previous one.

Here is what I wrote before on this thread:
QUOTEMost people here are generally nice, and they usually invite you for lunch or a cup of tea, even if they don't know you, although you can easily spot drug dealers, thiefs, and thugs more easily than other countries.
And there is a huge divide between people, those who can read and write, and those who can't. And most people are not exactly rich. Government workers and lots of other jobs barely earn $90 or around that.. A MONTH!

Sorry for the long rant.

You can always ask about anything else you want to know about Egypt
