Why I need to uninstall Discord

 Ahh yes, the feeling of being a part of a "community" and confide in online "friends" rather than being in the moment and talking with people who matter the most to us, it's like we all instinctively move towards the former and give ourselves a tough time. Nobody else can mess up our emotions more than we ourselves can. And yep, Social media apps are generally a thing to be avoided, esp in today's day and age.  "BbUt wHy?" And "ChIll oUT bOoMEr!!" are things that you might shout at me, but by the end of this article, you might see that the grass is indeed greener on the other side. Social media is inherently designed to feed you chock full of dopamine inducing feed through complex algorithms that track you both inside and OUTSIDE the app itself, and as they say, if it's a free product, them YOU'RE the product. Targeted ads related to your recent searches further cement my claim and I know you can probably relate to it.  You'r...

 Hello! If you're here because you wanna know how to install mySQL Connector in Python. I've spent a good few hours painstakingly experimenting just to write this post. So enjoy your read! Python + MySQL  Sooo you'll need these things first off:- 1. Python with 'pip' (preferably Python 3.8) 2. MySQL Installation (with Workbench) I'm lazy to paste links so search them urself Already have Python but unsure if you have pip or not? In Command Prompt on Windows or Terminal on Mac, type and enter: pip --version . If pip version is shown then it is installed. If you're screen looks something like this after doing the check, just reinstall Python 3.8 again. lol. Also, another tip: when installing mySQL, make sure to download all the assets right away instead of customising the installation. I will soon post a follow-up because my head is hurting lol, (no one is going to read this anyways) bye

Do switch cases exist in Python?

 Yes, they do. In a slightly different way. Example: match input("enter 1 or 2"):       case "1":                  print("bye")        case "2":                   print("hai")        case _:    #For any other input, like 'else'                   print('invalid')

Why Copilot is better than Gemini (for now)

 Disclaimer: This article heavily relies on personal experiences with the two AI models Lately, Google Gemini has been lacking when compared to its rival Microsoft's AI offering, Copilot. Copilot has received some sweet new updates which were enough to prove us wrong regarding its competency. If you've been to busy to catch up with the hectic AI race between these two giants, don't worry, I haven't been hitting the news lately too., but based on my usage, I'm confident that I'll make this showoff between these AI models as unbiased and accurate as possible... So let's jump right into it: PRESENTATION MATTERS When it comes to end user products, presentation is key. Have you noticed the native Android apps of Gemini and Copilot lately? Copilot offers up a lot of new ways to use AI right out of the bat on the homescreen, while Gemini's app is just a copy of the web version, both of which are merely chat windows. No/ only meagre inspirations or suggestions c...
