| Resume tips for no experience and no CS degree? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 03:40 PM PST So, I'm a mix of self taught and from a pretty popular coding bootcamp. I have a good grasp of HTML, CSS, SASS, Bootstrap and JQuery. I'm decent with JS, Python, SQL, Django. And new to Angular, Node/Express and MongoDB. Planning on learning a little Wordpress and CSS Grid soon. Anyway, as you can tell I'm predominately a front end web dev with no experience outside of a personal project or two. What have you self taught guys done to get your first job? I'm hoping to find something to put on a resume to prove my worth as I don't see recruiters having the time or knowledge to look very deep into a github profile. [link] [comments]  |

| Getting started with the 'R' Programming language: Can/Should I do it? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 02:13 AM PST Hi guys, So, I'm very very fresh off the boat when it comes to the idea of learning programming. I feel like I will need to flesh out this post with a little about myself in order to get good advice, so apologies if it drags! I'm currently on a placement year (Studying Chemical Engineering) at a client-oriented data management company, and have wound up on the bench waiting for my next project. I wanted to use this time to work on myself and my skills. I've always found data fairly interesting and a good sense of satisfaction in producing meaningful visuals from data. Someone mentioned the Programming language 'R' to me. And the idea popped into my head that maybe I should learn it. You see, I currently have no fucking idea what I want to do with my life. Unfortunately, I have to confess that I haven't worked/studied anything in my life that I have ever had a long-lasting passion for. When I was young, I was glued to video games and they (Along with friends & family) are the only things I've ever really been passionate about, so I thought that perhaps I could put these potential data-analytic skills into use in the gaming industry, so I would at least work around my passion. So, here are my questions: 1) I studied Chemical Engineering, not programming/Statistics (I did do statistics as part of my further maths A-level, which I promptly forgot upon doing 3 years of Chem Eng). Will my lack of statistical knowledge prevent me from learning R usefully? Or, do some of the courses in R include teachings in statistics and what you can do with the program as you go along? 2) Would R be useful in the career path I'm considering? 3) What are some good sources for learning R. Where do I start, with pure stats first, or can I jump right in and learn as I go? And to be honest, just any general advice for my programming/life situation! I really am without conviction at the moment. Whilst I don't dislike my job (The people in the company are wonderful people), I still can't say it's my passion, and I know I won't want to do it forever. Thanks in advance, I appreciate any opinions/advice. EDIT: It looks like in my post my wording wasn't exactly clear, as a lot of people are giving suggestions based on the game-development route (Which I still appreciate!) However, I Am specifically looking at using the language for analysing data. NOT necessarily for building programs. When I mentioned applying these skills in the gaming industry, what I meant was that I could apply data analytic/interpretation skills within the management side of gaming companies. NOT necessarily being part of the development process myself. Why? Simply because I am more interested in data, as opposed to programming design. In short: I am looking to fulfill the role of a Data Analyst. Not A programmer (per se). That said, a huge thank you to everyone who has contributed so far! Any and all info is appreciated :) [link] [comments]  |
| Why won't this program go into the second if statement? - Java Posted: 11 Jan 2018 10:09 AM PST I don't understand why it won't go into the second if statement. Sorry if this is a stupid question it is just not making any sense to me. [link] [comments]  |
| How can i improve my CS skills in my hour break? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 09:58 PM PST Question. Just looking for something to do in my hour breaks in work that would go a long way to improve my CS skills [link] [comments]  |
| Going back to University or Self-Learning Posted: 11 Jan 2018 09:22 AM PST Hey guys, I'm in my third year of a civil engineering program in my university and for the past few years I've been learning how to code on the side, I've taken a light course load this semester to focus on learning programming and I think I've fallen in love because it's all I can think about. I have looked into the CS program and there are some transferable courses but not that many but the main problem is I don't think I can live with my parents any longer. If I go for a degree in CS , I'd have to take 4 years of school again and would be 27 by the time I finish so I think that is too late/old to begin my life when all of my friends are either graduated from their programs or working full time. This problem/dilemma has gotten me straight up depressed and I don't know if I should just finish my degree and try to find a job in software with it or just start fresh and do a CS degree.

| [Python] How to send Data Between two python scripts on two servers? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 09:13 AM PST I am not sure, what are some of the more popular/effective ways to send data between two python scripts on different servers? (Edit: By "server" I just mean "computers". In my instance I am likely to spin up a few Digital Ocean instances to do the work and I want them to talk to each other). As an example, let's say I have server A which has It would then divide that list into Upon receiving the list of URLs the I hope this question make senses. I know how to scrape and parse website. My focus is just on the passing of data between servers that are working together in this fashion. [link] [comments]  |

| Completely new to web development, can't figure out how to add data to a webpage. Posted: 11 Jan 2018 04:54 PM PST Sorry for the long post, trying to give as much info as possible. Skip to QUESTIONS for what I'm asking. BACKGROUND: I challenged myself to learn coding by telling my brother I'd build him some people counters (leave it by the door and it counts the amount of people walking through). The way I have it envisioned is to set up a web server, then have the device send information in the form of an HTTP GET request. The idea is the site is constantly displaying the current count, so every time you refresh it, you can see an updated count. I currently have a free domain name that only people on my local network can connect to (i'd like for anyone to connect anywhere, unless it costs money, then I'll avoid that). I have a mysql database, and I have a php file with the following content (note that I grabbed this from an online source and have very limited knowledge as to how this works). This php file is separate from the main page file, which works fine. Here's the count.php file that I'm having trouble with: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <?php // GET request if (isset($_GET['data'])){ $data1 = $_GET['data']; } else{ echo "Data not received"; } // Initialize connection to MySQL database $servername = "-----"; $username = "-----"; $password = "----"; $dbname = "count"; // Create connection $conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname); // Check connection if (!$conn) { die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error()); } echo "Connected successfully <br>"; //Insert into database $data1_sql = "INSERT INTO information (id, storename, currentcount) VALUES ('NULL', "TestStore", $data1);"; $data1_query = mysqli_query($conn, $data1_sql); //$device_list = array(); mysqli_close($conn); ?> As it stands, when I try to connect to the count.php page, it gives me an HTTP 500 error. If I connect to that page on the linux vm that's running the server, I get no error message, just a blank page, which leads me to believe that the database can't be connected to unless it's on the local machine. Initially I had it set up so that the device would create its own web server (it's an ESP8266 devkit, so it's as easy as a couple of lines of code), but the store it will be put in has a router that assigns dynamic ip addresses. The idea is for this to be able to be left alone for very long periods of time, ideally forever. Another reason for having an online webserver, it needs to reset the count every day, and getting the time through php is easy from what I understand. QUESTIONS: Is there a simpler way to go about this? How do I make my domain visible from any computer outside my local network? How do I set things up so that an HTTP GET request updates the information in the mysql database? I don't know the ip address to the database, and I can't figure out how to find it (stuff online says to use the hostname to get the ip address but I couldn't figure it out). I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, and I'm getting really, really lost with all of these web development terms I've never seen. I've done a lot of research (several hours at this point) but a lot of it goes over my head. I'm still pretty new to coding (about a year of self-taught C# coding). Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated! [link] [comments]  |

| Removing "-bash: hub: command not found" from my terminal screen upon opening Terminal Posted: 11 Jan 2018 11:07 PM PST When I log into Terminal on my Mac Mini running High Sierra to practice coding with Ruby 2.5 installed via Homebrew, the second line of text in Terminal is "-bash: hub: command not found". This line of text appeared this evening after I attempted to install RI documentation via RVM, RBENV and Homebrew. (Not completely sure it's installed, but that's another question for another time) Is the "-bash: hub: command not found" that big of an issue? Am I able to remove it somehow? I've already run brew install bash-completion.. (I'm saying these things but I have no idea what they mean...) [link] [comments]  |
| 5 numbers between 1-52, can they equal 42 with +,-,*,/ operations? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 07:05 PM PST I just did an internship interview online and one of the questions was that a guy pulls 5 numbers between 1-52, and he must decide whether his 5 numbers can somehow equal 42. For example if your input is: a b c d e. can you say a*b-c+d/e = 4 for example. I couldn't figure this out without possibly using some very terrible brute force. I figured it might have to do with the parity of the number of odds but I couldn't figure out a single formula for it. This is probably a good number theory problem. Anyone have ideas for it.

| How to effectively learn Bit manipulation Posted: 11 Jan 2018 06:55 PM PST There are many tricks out there that involve bit manipulation and also alot of problems on leetcode that require bit manipulation tricks to reach the most efficient answer.

| How stack goes on building a torrent-to-http download service something like seedr.cc Posted: 11 Jan 2018 10:29 PM PST I know seedboxes. I know rtrorrent/rutorrent. So I am specifically not asking about run-off-the-mill seedboxes. I am trying to understand the software stack and programming logic that goes into building something like seedr.cc (I am sure there are other services similar to that) I specifically mention their service because I like the simplicity of their product and I would like to build something similar to that. Specifically how they cache torrent files and if someone wants to download something popular they just copy/mv/dedup/symlink the content to the specific user folder instead of downloading the whole content again - giving the impression of fast download. On the front-end, they display how much space left + speed of download in almost real time Looking for some guidance on how one would go about building something like this. Thanks [link] [comments]  |

| A great resource for learning python Posted: 11 Jan 2018 09:46 AM PST Hi everyone! I noticed yesterday that the guys from pyler.io posted that their courses were starting back up in a few weeks. Just on their behalf, I took a course with them last year and I have to say I was extremely impressed and it was a great decision. Skeptical at first because they are a small set-up but thats where the advantages came through. They kept the course and content really interesting and very personal. If I ever had trouble I could email the mentor and he would get back very quickly. I was also offered one-to-one help if I felt I was falling behind! They pace the courses nicely and give a project to work on at the end (they also reviewed the project and gave a lot of feedback). Overall a great place for any beginner to start and a great place for intermediates to learn a bit more. Definitely check them out here! [link] [comments]  |

| C++ resources for an existing progammer? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 05:24 PM PST Hiya, I've recently been interested into getting into C++, but I haven't been able to find an agreement as to which resources are best to do so. I checked StackOverflow, and it suggested Accelerated C++ - however, this book is dated (was published in 2000) and I'm not too sure as to whether that's relevant for C++. Furthermore, one of the issues I'm worried about is that I've programmed before - in languages such as C# and python where there was a GC to pick up my shit and dumbed down references instead of the full set of references and pointers. Will reading a book like this hurt me if I don't have experience with those? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| [Java] Comparator is not sorting a list by an object's attribute correctly Posted: 11 Jan 2018 05:19 PM PST I have a method in my program that converts a HashMap of objects to a list, and then sorts the list by the object ids. However, it's not sorting the list correctly for some reason. Here is my method below, and the list before and after sorting. Can someone spot what the issue is here? This object's id is string if that matters List before sorting: List after sorting: [link] [comments]  |
| What piece of advice would you offer to someone new to coding? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 08:57 PM PST Recently I've decided that I want to learn a skill, and I want that skill to be coding. I think that for someone like me, learning to code could be extremely valuable. Here's the thing though. I haven't gone to college (this was a personal decision, not because I couldn't get in to or afford anywhere good) and have no intention of going in the future. I am 100% committed to doing whatever necessary to bridge the gap between myself and my peers, and I understand that may be even harder than learning through school. I will do whatever it takes. I am 19, and have decided this is the one skill I want to really commit to getting extremely good at. So for anyone on the inside, what advice could you give me to really help me? Here are a few things I'm interested in knowing Do you recommend something like CodeAcademy, or would you recommend a bootcamp or even single classes? Or a combination of these approaches? What is a realistic timeframe to expect to be employable in? Are there certain certifications that I should aim for? What do you think a big roadblock for someone in this position could be? Anything else you think I should know would also be appreciated. I have read the FAQ and gotten some very valuable info, subreddits like this are the reason I love Reddit so much!

| How much should it cost to hire someone to build a web browser extension? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 08:54 PM PST I'm looking to build an extension but I don't know how much it should cost. It would be a pop up extension scraping information from eccomerce websites like eBay to tell sellers what's in demand and get detailed info about the products from a birds eye view.
