Wanting to be a program/software developer, math too hard, options? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 08:52 PM PST I want to get a BS degree in a field and currently in a community college looking to transfer. I really enjoy programming and finished all of my Computer Science classes, although I am struggling with the math and physics/engineering that goes involved with computer sci that I need to transfer. I was never really great in mathematics, so it's not that I am lacking drive, rather I may be lacking the math mindset. I didn't really fail any math tests, although i didn't do great enough to get the grades required for transfer. (Calc 2) I am wondering if I am able take up another major where I am able to continue to become a developer. Has anyone ever taken computer information systems and continued on to being a programmer? or been in a situation similar? At the school that I'm currently at, they seem to offer a CIS associates degree, doesn't look too difficult, mainly just programming classes which would benefit building a portfolio (such as a swift course and app development.) and maybe a accounting and business class. I know an AS is not a BS, but am I able to transfer after getting my AS to pursue my BS in CIS at another college? I'm trying to schedule an appointment with a counselor although it has been very difficult which is why I am here for the meantime. [link] [comments] |
Looking to create a simple budgeting/planning app as my first project. Posted: 07 Jan 2018 12:07 PM PST I want to create a basic app for monthly budgeting for my first programming project. I have been wanting to learn a programming language for quite some time, more to enhance my knowledge and to learn something new, rather than to use it as an income stream. [link] [comments] |
Do the newly founded exploits (Meltdown/Spectre) affect virtual machines? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 11:23 AM PST I was looking up information on the new issue, and was just wondering if there has been any testing done on a virtual machine, both in the VM environment itself, and from VM to host?

Need help with Compiling QT Project (Boost/mingw32/OpenSSL included) Posted: 07 Jan 2018 05:34 PM PST Me and a friend are working on compiling a QT.pro file. We've been downing one error at a time and got stuck. Inside the QT.pro we have: .# Dependency library locations can be customized with: now when we go to compile our program through the use of "QT 5.7 for Desktop (MinGW 5.3.0 32bit)" we use the cd command to get to the correct file path (cd \ProgramName\src) and then we use one of the following commands to start the compilation of the program: mingw32-make -f makefile.mingw this produces the following: g++ -c -mthreads -03 -msse2 -w -Wall -Wextra -Wno--ignored-qualifiers -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wno-unused-parameter -g -DWIN32 -D_WINDOWS -DBOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB -DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFE -DSTATICLIB -DUSE_UPNP=0 -IC:/PROGRAMNAME/src/leveldb/include -IC:/PROGRAMNAME/src/leveldb/helpers -I"C:\miniupnpc-1.6-mgw" -o obj/alert.o alert.cpp We're assuming that it means "boost/algorithm/string/classification.hpp" is missing, but when we check that exact path it's actually there and has code in the hpp file. We checked all path names and they seem to be correct. We were told the ubuntu fix for this is "sudo apt-get install libboost-dev" so we're missing a library? We're running windows 7 and can't find a solution anywhere. Any advice or directions to the correct answer/resource will help a bunch! Thanks [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Jan 2018 01:18 PM PST I've been in IT for a decade but my only programming experience comes from TI-83 calculators when I'd build really simple software to help me cheat on tests in high school. Basically just a lot of if and then statements. Now I'm working at a helpdesk for a large company and I've been here long enough that I'm realizing that 90% of my job could be written into a self-help program that basically just asks the problem, narrows it down and then offers up the solution that I would. I'm thinking I could build something web based that lives on the company intranet with a bunch of links and the understanding of HTML that I have but I'd like to ask your opinion on if there is a better way to do this. Like I said, my programming knowledge is limited but I'm a lot more willing to learn new stuff for a project like this as opposed to "I wanna learn C because it's a good skill to have". Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] |
What would be a good approach for a small, internal repository? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 07:54 AM PST Hi all. We just realized that we have the need for a small repository, mainly for deploying a few third-party libraries and some other files after a release is done. I was told that the goal here is not to have third-party libraries and files on our source control repo, and since we may need a specific version of those, going to the website and downloading them after each release, not only would be tedious, but it may just not even work. So we were wondering if there is a way to have a small repo for those files. I read about setting up a Private Nuget Server on reddit a few days ago, but it seems that this is too much for what the guys need. What would be a good approach for this particular issue? We have a few AWS instances where we can host a small repo. Any advice or suggestion you may have is truly appreciated. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Help? Can I have a computer act as a phone? Or access a phone? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 08:09 AM PST I need to create a program that can access apps and texts on the phone. I want a program to collect data and respond to text messages on the phone. Also I need the program to open up an application and click a button. Is this possible? Any quick and easy way to do this?

Posted: 07 Jan 2018 09:37 AM PST Hey Folks. I'm about to start a study based on programming at the end of the month. For that I am planning on getting a new laptop. The new surface book 2 has really caught my attention, due to its versatility, however it is a bit pricey, as you all may know. It is not that I don't have the money for it, but can't quite figure out if I am going over the board with this one. Like what is actually needed. Hope you guys can help me [link] [comments] |
What is the best way to record a gif from the screen? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 08:05 AM PST For my Interfaces Programming course at university I've thought about building a gif recorder, something similar (but way simpler) to ScreenToGif. Should I take screenshot 20/30 times per second and then create a gif from those? Is it the best way? Thanks for the answers :) [link] [comments] |
Javascript array property in a loop Posted: 07 Jan 2018 11:13 AM PST Matrix[i][j].update = function(){ Matrix[i][j].val=Number(this.value()); } this line gives the function property Matrix[i][j].val=Number(this.value()); but leaves i and j as text? Why are i and j not defined in the creation of the function? I would expect Matrix[0][0] to have the update property Matrix[0][0].val=Number(this.value()); but it actually still leaves it as [i][j] How can I get around this? [link] [comments] |
Flex RadioButtonGroup funcitonality across multiple custom components Posted: 07 Jan 2018 04:44 AM PST I am creating a program that will contain multiple instances of an custom mxml component that contains a label and a radio button. I would like to mirror the functionality of the RadioButtonGroup so that only one radio button is selected at one time. But unfortunately, I cannot get this to work and more that one radio button is selected at the same time. Does my custom component need to implement and overidde the functions provided by IFocusGroupManager class? I have provided my code below. Main.mxml 01 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 02 <s:Application 03 xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 04 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 05 xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo" 06 xmlns:C="*"> 07 08 <fx:Script> 09 <![CDATA[ 10 import flash.events.Event; 11 import flash.events.FocusEvent; 12 import flash.events.KeyboardEvent; 13 import flash.events.MouseEvent; 14 import mx.controls.Alert; 15 import mx.events.ItemClickEvent; 16 import spark.components.Group; 17 18 private function FocusIn(evt:FocusEvent):void 19 { 20 ToggleFocus(evt, true); 21 } 22 23 private function FocusOut(evt:FocusEvent):void 24 { 25 ToggleFocus(evt, false); 26 } 27 28 private function ToggleFocus(event:FocusEvent, State:Boolean):void 29 { 30 var i:int; 31 32 var ParentGroup:Group = event.currentTarget.parent; 33 34 for (i = 0; i < ParentGroup.numChildren; i++) 35 TT(ParentGroup.getChildAt(i)).ShowImage = State; 36 } 37 ]]> 38 /fx:Script 39 40 <s:Panel 41 title="Survey" 42 horizontalCenter="0" 43 verticalCenter="0" 44 width="1000" 45 height="500"> 46 47 <s:Scroller width="100%" height="100%"> 48 <s:Group width="100%" height="100%"> 49 <s:VGroup left="20" right="20" top="20" bottom="20"> 50 51 <s:Label> 52 <s:text>How likely are you to recommend this Product?/s:text 53 /s:Label 54 55 <s:Group> 66 /s:VGroup TT.mxml view sourceprint? 01 <?xml version="1.0"?> 02 03 <s:SkinnableContainer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 04 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 05 xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" 06 implements="mx.managers.IFocusManagerGroup"> 07 08 <fx:Script> 09 <![CDATA[ 10 import flash.events.Event; 11 import flash.events.MouseEvent; 12 import mx.controls.Alert; 13 import mx.controls.RadioButton; 14 import mx.events.FlexEvent; 15 { 16 [Bindable] 17 public var RadioButtonLabel:String; 18 19 [Bindable] 20 public var ShowImage:Boolean; 21 22 [Bindable] 23 public var ShortcutNumber:String; 24 25 [Bindable] 26 private var _groupName:String; 27 28 [Bindable] 29 public var SelectState:Boolean; 30 31 [Bindable] 32 public var _selected:Boolean; 33 34 public function set groupName(value:String):void 35 { 39 public function get groupName():String 40 { 41 return _groupName; 42 } 43 44 public function set selected(value:Boolean):void 45 { 49 public function get selected():Boolean 50 { 57 58 <s:layout> 59 <s:HorizontalLayout 60 paddingLeft="5" paddingRight="0" 61 paddingTop="0" paddingBottom="0"/> 62 /s:layout 63 64 <s:Label id="value" text="{ShortcutNumber}" visible="{ShowImage}" color="blue" fontWeight="bold" fontSize="16" 65 horizontalCenter="true" paddingTop="3" focusEnabled="false" /> 66 <s:RadioButton id="RadioButton" label="{RadioButtonLabel}" groupName="{_groupName}" selected="{_selected}" /> 67 /s:SkinnableContainer [link] [comments] |
Why does a later CSS selector get overridden by an earlier one? Posted: 06 Jan 2018 11:44 PM PST I have this snippet of code that I'm trying to make sure I fully understand. Unfortunately my comprehension of CSS is still rudimentary and there are a few aspects of this that I am getting hung up on. First of all, the image has a 50 px border on the bottom, but I have a rule for the image here: That says that the padding on it should be 0, and this should override previous definitions, but it doesn't seem to. The other part that I am confused about is this: I have two specifiers: If I add 55px of padding to the bottom of the "nav ul li" section, then my header background (the grey bar) gets extended downwards by 55px. However, if I add that same padding to the "nav ul li a" section, my grey bar does not get extended. Can someone explain these two issues to me? Because I am quite lost. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Jan 2018 06:45 AM PST There is some software for keyboards. You start it tracks all the informations from your external keyboard, so whole keyboard is 100% programable. Do you know aobut any way to do this with USB mouse? Disable all the functinality and code your own functionality based on I/O from mouse. [link] [comments] |
Rather unusual question about a career path / what should I do with my time Posted: 07 Jan 2018 05:51 AM PST Hello, I'm a 20 year old romanian studying computer science. While in highschool, everyone around me told me about this unviersity of computer science that is supposed to be the best in the country and top whatever in the world, everyone gets out with a job and a huge salary and so on. On top of that, I liked computers, I was writing little scripts and programs since I was like 10 years old, so I thought I should go to this university, it sounds like the best idea. Oh boy, was I wrong. I'm second year ( out of 4) and I hate it. I feel like I learned nothing altough Im busy all the time, there is barely any free time, with alot of 10-12 hours homeworks, and I feel like they are all for nothing. In 2 years, the best "program" I wrote was a process scheduler. I can't do anything that is practical or useful. On the other hand, I'm passionate about games(who isn't) and feel like I'm pretty smart and creative( sometimes I feel like the dubmest person on earth ) and so I thought maybe I should start focusing less on studying and start working on a project on my own, took some courses on udemy and feel, yet again, stuck. Starting to work on a game right now would probably take 3 years to finish, and I'm afraid I can't stay motivated to finish it for that long. Also I tried but nobody I know seems to want to work on it with me. Maybe instead of working on a game I should learn how to make an engine first, start with java and OpenGL and build up from there, but then I'm afraid I will get behind everybody else and get just a bad job after the university. And then there are tons of other subjects that interest me but I just can't do all of them, like AI , machine learning and neural networks, security, so on. Any advice? [link] [comments] |
Can't seem to find out how to edit the html of the chrome browser itself? Posted: 07 Jan 2018 05:01 AM PST Context: I really like using a website in fullscreen on google chrome but the fullscreen mode in chrome doesn't let me access my tabs. so I decided to search"fullscreen adaptation into browser" and found this website. All that I could understand was that there is a solution to my problem. However, I would have to know how execute it first. The only knowledge I have about programming is a few years of experience editing my tumblr page when I was a 13. How do i edit google chrome? [link] [comments] |
How to build a simple code that checks for price difference and send (free) sms/alert to phone Posted: 07 Jan 2018 04:58 AM PST I wish to compare price difference between 2 bitcoin exchanges and alert me if price is >200. Does anyone has something similar? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
