@Deleted User granted "Academic Expert" role

@Deleted User also I forgot to mention: the best thing you can do to help the academic channels is to post things you're interested in!

Add channels for programming and language-learning

any computer dudes mind suggesting where online i can get a computer built?

@Goose we have a <#352761432833523713> channel which would be a good place to start. I’m a Digital Storm guy myself.

thanks @Deleted User

Howdy goys, SAS programmer here

Ruby programmer here

Ive been working on a making a few kuksa as chistmas gifts for my parents and sibiling.( Since there doesn't seem to be a woodwork channel, I'm posting it here.)

Progress on the first one. Anyone got tips or tricks? Waiting for a hook knife to come in from Amazon so I can finish up the hollowing. For roughing I've been using a gouge with the kuksa wedged into a log, as I don't have a vice here yet

@RevStench and a few other guys should be able to give you a few pointers

@nils awesome. I'm working on some carving myself. I'm making a sign for a member, I don't carve often enough to give pointers though.

I did come into some oak 1x that's going to make this thing sweet as.

Everyone who has offered to help others in any academic area has received an AE (Academic Expert) role. So if you have a question (homework or otherwise) you can preface it with <@&387091385075105804> to get the attention of this group!

Chalk it up to tism or OCD, but I've become a big fan of to-do lists over the years for activities, studies, and exercise. I've been doing them monthly for a while now and have found that looking at them every morning encourages me to stick with the things I pursue. I want to share this month's as a template that some of you more diligent guys could use for your pursuits.

It's satisfying to cross stuff off the list every day.

Nice, I need to start doing this. I've been getting pretty lazy lately

My working hours got cut in half, so for the first week I didn't see any harm in just browsing the chans in all my free time

should add a sales skill for all the IE sales bros

Do we have any car experts here?

Yea there's a mechanics category

Ive been in the car buisness for years sales since 2014 finance since this year

@this_that5553 might fit better in <#387059792432201729>

or just <@&387091385075105804> can someone answer @this_that5553 ?

Not sure if humanities or stem or what

@sigruna14 Want to start a language learning channel here? Or a german learning channel?

Memrise is great

@this_that5553 a few of us were considering that. I’m going to be picking up Latin this semester and I know a few people were saying they’d like to as well.

Language learning is a hobby of mine. I simply dabble though. Would love to focus on one language in particular with a group of us. Maybe french or german for us and we can practice with our euro bros haha
@Kingfish

Yeah absolutely. I have to learn a language for my degree and I went with Latin. Maybe not the best choice but I couldn’t resist

@this_that5553 bro I'm the same. I love language, but I've committed to one and I've been teaching myself Ukrainian for the last 3 years.

Yeah, language learning is great. Helps with self-confidence and talking to people as well

Same, but I dabble and can't commit

Need to fit it into my routine

We could start a group here

We should ^

We should set up a language exchange club for GI and IE. I'm sure most GI people know English really well, but perhaps they want practice. @Deleted User Did you notice any bad English over there?

Most didn't, only higher ups and those living in Belgium

English wasn't very commonly spoken and only somewhat understood

The leaders speak fluently however
