  • People look down on Javascript (and therefore Typescript) but as someone who learned by doing I think its a really good option

    Once you get past the hello world phase you can take it any direction you want: websites/apps, command-line stuff, desktop apps you name it. Just avoid the trap of getting sucked into specific frameworks or loads of tooling early on and learn the language

    W3schools is a great resource and you can do the examples and exercises right there in your browser








  • To make you less anxious:

    A friend of mine had issues with his (much older) PC, stuttering in games and similar but it still worked

    When I took a look I found it was pegged throttling at 100deg after running for a while. This had been going on for months

    Eventually found the AIO pump had completely died, any cooling was due to passive conduction through the materials and water

    We replaced the cooler and now it’s been running fine for another 3 years and going

    TL:DR: modern CPUs can run hot, and safely boost. As it gets too hot it will start reducing clocks but it’s highly unlikely you damage anything unless you go out of your way to overclock, overvolt or ditch the cooler entirely


  • I honestly wouldn’t worry about it, especially with the weather as it is at the moment- my PC is getting about the same with a 3900x, nice noctua cooler and loads of airflow It’s been going over 30 in my office and even the best coolers can’t break that physics

    Check again when it cools down, might make it easier to see if/where there are issues
