Whatsapp group for programmers (Python)

Posted 29 October 2014 - 11:19 AM

Hello guys, I'm new here. Here's the thing, I'm new to Python and was learning the basics until I felt so lonely. I don't really like talking on forums because you don't get instant reply. I prefer chatting live with others.
So what I thought is to create a Whatsapp group and add beginners and advanced programmers so we can chat anytime about programming and get quick answer to your questions.
The group doesn't have to be limited to programming nor python, we can get to know each other better if we want. I'm okay with sharing SOME stuffs about me (just the basics, name/age/sex/location).
So here we go, anyone who wants to join, just post your number and username or name (so I can save you in my contact list) below and I'll add you.
My number is +509 47432370, you can call me Nick.

Is This A Good Question/Topic? 0

I will take a pass. For one I won't be posting my phone number anywhere, and two I am a volunteer and not at the beck and call of anyone.

I'm a princess, darn it!

Okay. Some people like to help others so much that they don't mind. But of course, you're not "some people". Have it your way.

modi's pretty damn helpful

but for one you've got to be mad to post your phone number on a forum where people (especially students) frequently come asking you to do their work for them. I occasionally get direct PMs and that's annoying enough, I might flip a table if some random called my cell phone like "yo how do I make a char array"

If you just wanna chat, we have an IRC channel - but no asking for help there iirc. I've dropped in on it like twice but the only person on was B9 and I just bitched momentarily about what a headache the Android SDK is and then got distracted and left lol...

Maybe you could use KIK that way you don't have to post your phone number and just a user name.

The IRC is active.. I've been in and out of it.. though the current residents seem to be going through a bewbs and booze topic trend.

In a past life the company was pulling in a whole mess of Indian contractors. Someone tipped them my cell and I was dumb enough to answer the phone while at the bar. They went on and on about some inane issue with some project the were given to ease them into our process. The first time I politely told them to send an email and I'll deal in my morning. The third time I kicked over a chair. Subsequent times it was just me yelling "send an email" and hanging up.

Persistent buggers.

Lol, you guys are right. Totally. Well, I guess that's enough to say that nobody wants to join a Whatsapp group about programming.

@andrew - The OP did indicate s/he was a fan of "quick answer to your questions"... perhaps this topic is ancient now in the OP's time frame?

I am only working off what I know of you, so far, bub.

Oh.. ohh! Let me take another stab at it. Perhaps the original post, now found to have been trapped in the past, can leap from reply to reply striving to put what once was right wrong... and hoping each time the next leap is is the leap to the answer's home.
