    How do you organize your study time?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 05:57 PM PST

    Hey guys, I have ADHD and at times, even with meds, I struggle to organize my study time. With programming, I often get overwhelmed by the amount of technologies and tutorials available.

    What are you learning/building right now and how much time do you think you spend on it per day or week? Is your schedule pretty flexible or do you try to stick to certain hours/days?

    Background: I'm taking this semester off and working on an Android project and want to continue learning webdev at the same time. I also want to use some of my spare time to prepare for interviews.

    Resource for Data Structures & Algorithm with explanation and practice questions

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 08:37 PM PST

    Hello, I am trying to learn about Data Structures & Algorithms and wanted to get some recommendations for resources.

    I currently have been using codechef, and I enjoyed its DSA series where they have problems grouped by types of data structures or algorithms. Do you guys recommend any other websites that has features like this also with blogs or editorials that explains this stuff?

    Or should I just learn a algorithms book? I'm using C++ so any recommendations for DSA C++ books will be appreciated greatly as well.

    Thank you

    Blew my mind! Programming vs. Scripting vs. Markup Languages

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 04:46 PM PST

    I have been programming for almost a year now. I did not know the difference between programming, scripting and markup languages. Learning these differences literally connected SO many dots for me!!

    This is an amazing video explaining the differences: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aExZPN6O_54

    If you know other concepts as such that helps programmers connect the dots backwards, please do post them here!

    Which finance API should I use for my stock reference React App? (tried Finnhub.io, Yahoo Finance)

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 07:54 PM PST

    First off, I am a beginner learning React web development and I am creating my third non-tutorial based App. The app is a stock reference app, similar to the "stocks" app on iOS devices. My issue is that I can't seem to find a good finance API with a good reputation. Some have said that using Yahoo Finance is bad because it's not an official Yahoo product and it is fragile. I have also heard that Finnhub isn't good because it too is fragile and prone to bugs. I am not looking for anything with a ton of numbers, all I need is something that has the stock symbol, the name, the open price, close price and the current price. Also I prefer something that is free.

    How to make decisions about it architecture in big companies

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 03:34 PM PST

    First of all sorry for my English, I'm not an English native.

    I need some help with something I don't even know how to google.

    I've been a developer for several years now, and something I always noticed was that long term decisions regarding IT architecture are taken mostly considering time to market and meeting deadlines, and that increases technical debt and nightmares in the developer teams.

    Is there any case studies or recommended materials about how to model, create and maintain a good and healthy IT architecture in companies with tons of APIs and several businesses? Which topic would be that?

    New to backend, should I learn from framework (Express, Flask, dll) or just jump straight to learn without framework like Node.js and Go?

    New to backend, should I learn from framework (Express, Flask, dll) or just jump straight to learn without framework like Node.js and Go?

    I read somewhere that I should learn backend without framework like Go instead of learning usin framework, but I'm not sure if it'd be overwhelming for beginners like me.

    Video game programming for middle schoolers?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 05:51 AM PST

    Hi, I'm mostly a backend dev and I will be talking to a small group of middle schoolers about programming and what it involves in a day to day. I could easily do a hello world and play around with that, but they seem very interested in video game development, as expected.

    Are there any very simple tutorials, in the vein of hello world, that involves a video game? Something like Pong or connect 4 or something basic, I just want to play around with it a bit and make some simple changes while they watch.

    Any suggestions?

    How do I improve my skills as an undergraduate student and aspiring software engineer?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 08:45 PM PST

    I am about to graduate with an irrelevant degree (Psychology and UX). I am going back to school for two years to earn a second bachelors degree in CS. Within these two years, I want to use my time wisely, improve myself and learn as much as I can so that I will confidently apply to jobs when I graduate with a degree in CS. I also want to master the essential skills that will help me in the future.

    Do you have any advice on how I can improve my skills (and what I should focus on) in order for me to become a competent software engineer? Do you have any advice or resources for me? Thank you so much in advance!

    Where to learn java

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 08:06 PM PST

    I really hope this is the right place to ask this, so for about a year or 2 I've been wanting to learn java programming, I can't find out a place to though. I've looked at Codecademy but I've heard that it doesn't go very advanced, I don't really want to read a textbook, and almost every youtube tutorial is the stereotypical, go from small thing to highly advanced. I just wanna learn to code, if anyone has a source to something that can help or can give advice that would be really good. If this isn't the right place for something like this please link it.

    Local .JSON files or Database ?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 11:02 PM PST

    Hello people !

    I'm working on a little project right now to learn new tech, where I need to fetch some data from a RESTful API. Just a simple single-page app to display that data.

    Now, to not burden the API with multiple http requests, I was thinking of having those saved on some .json files locally, since they shouldn't need to be updated that often (they should contain stuff like name of cities, informations that aren't susceptible to change).

    Is it a good solution or should I set up a light database ?

    How does Swagbucks and other reward sites work?

    This might be a stupid question lol, but how do these sites track that you've completed a task like downloading an app or completing a survey?

    I am working on this charitable marketplace project that involves an open banking system. I am trying to figure out how to make an even more direct transaction process on this platform.

    Beginner Question about VBA and Databases

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 10:17 PM PST

    Hello everyone,

    I'm new here, so sorry if this isn't the right place to ask. I'm looking into making a script of some sort that, at its core, takes a few user inputs, looks for corresponding items in a database, and compiles them into a table (they'd be found using tags of some sort). Any formatting or anything would be icing on the cake.

    I was planning on doing this in VBA for Excel, but since I'm starting from scratch, I've been debating trying Java or some other system. The database doesn't even exist, I was just planning on making a big Excel sheet but ran into issues (my work uses SolidWorks PDM, so making sure the user has the latest file version, for example), and thought I would see if anyone here has any insight into my issue.

    Thanks in advance! Sam

    What are some best practices for learning code?

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 01:23 PM PST

    So, brief overview of my situation, I'm a junior in college and for the past few months I have been trying to teach myself web development but to no avail. I've been trying to watch these videos on Udemy but it's so hard for me to just sit there and watch. I try to code along but I just keep on getting so distracted that it takes me most of my day to finish up one section that's only supposed to be an hour and a half. In the five months that I've been doing this I have only gotten through half of the course so far and yet I don't feel like I know very much at all. I've thought about restarting but I feel like I need a different approach to this as the last five months have really lead to nothing.

    So my question is this; What are the best practices for learning code? And what is the best way to keep yourself motivated while doing it?

    Question for self taught programmers

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 10:05 PM PST

    I'm considering teaching myself programming because while I have a strong interest in the subject/field I have always had problems with conventional schooling. The thing i'm wondering about is the strengths/weaknesses of different methods of self teaching, like linear vs not so linear (lol). I'm not sure how much i'd be able to focus if I just started learning in a really linear fashion- by this i mean starting from the very bottom and grinding through all the super basics and stuff vs. setting goals that increase in difficulty and learning what i need to achieve these goals, if that makes sense.

    Above all i just want to hear the paths some of you took to learn programming and what worked/didn't work for you. Time frames would also be really helpful if you can include them.

    Thanks!

    what's the best online coding bootcamp?

    I'm a recent college grad with a non-STEM degree, and I've struggled to find success in the job market. I think I'd like to focus on software engineering, and I'm wondering which boot camp would be best for me. Ideally one which I wouldn't have to pay for until getting a job, which is also well-regarded. Thanks!

    Level of Anonymity in making a website

    Posted: 23 Jan 2021 09:57 PM PST

    Hi! I am looking to make a website and it's a completely legitimate website, but I am looking for some level of anonymity from randos on the internet. I am wondering what levels of anonymity I can expect. I expect to give the following services my information:

    -AWS

    -Some domain name registration company (I will use WHOIS protection)

    -If I add advertisers, I will likely give them my name unless I register an LLC later down the line. I realize that an LLC is linked to my identity, but I don't know why an advertiser would publicly reveal my name or LLC.

    I know all these services will have my information, I am just hoping to not be Google-able. I'm not looking for 100% certainly, I just want to know if it's likely. Thanks!
