What are the technical details in the differences between Cygwin and mingw? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 06:10 PM PDT I'm a toolchain developer for Linux & Darwin but really have never done anything on Windows. So linkers, loaders, compilers, libraries, runtimes etc I understand in detail. Google this question just gives you hand wavy vague explanations. Could somebody describe the toolchain differences between the various Windows environments? Oh, and if possible could you state how it differs from standard Windows development? C & C++ that is, I don't have any use for .NET environments. [link] [comments] |
[Beginner] Want to start a small web automation project. Looking for some direction Posted: 07 Apr 2018 01:09 PM PDT There is a repeatable task I want to automate in a Tabletop RPG platform call "Roll20". The platform itself is built in HTML5 I want to automatically create monsters on the platform using a dataset containing their attributes, dmg, health, etc. I already have the dataset (.xlsx), but just need some direction on where to begin. I only have beginner experience in Python, so I was hoping to use that along with Selenium. Any thoughts? [link] [comments] |
Looking for a resource to read about how to write technical writing. Posted: 07 Apr 2018 05:49 PM PDT As the title says I am looking for a resource to learn about good technical writing skills, I got asked to coauthor a book on a framework that I use daily but haven't written much in the way of technical writing in the past, especially on frameworks. Is there a good resource out there to help me learn the kind of language to use etc? Thanks in advance as this is my first foray into this. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Apr 2018 08:23 PM PDT Exactly what the title says. Have you ever been in a situation where you get frustrated by the poor quality of a program that you then realize you'd written or contributed to, months or years before? [link] [comments] |
Interacting With Audio in Windows 10 at the Driver / API level? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 04:06 PM PDT I'm looking to use python and pass an applications audio through an EQ. In the end I want to just be able to search for an executable, select it, and anytime this program is ran passed through its own instance of processing. I've started reading through the information on docs.windows, but past that have no idea how to interact with the api / driver aside from some stuff with pyaudio like handling main outputs / inputs etc. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Apr 2018 02:38 AM PDT I'm a full stack developer for a small company in Europe (15 people). I work with a team of 4 other devs on our main office, the rest are graphic designers, PMs, etc. All the devs I work with come from non-web background or purely backend background. Each one of them was told, when hired, that they would have to become "fullstack" as we are not a big team and we cover many tasks. As it turns out, every dev (except for me) has been avoiding learning/studying frontend development for months now. It's not that they are not full stack, it's like they refuse to work on frontend stuff if they can avoid it. And quality has suffered. They have been patching things up as they go, learning the absolute minimi and then "forgetting" about it hoping no other frontend tasks would come their way. Last week I had a very busy scheduled so I assigned one of the front end tasks (small single page app) to a coworker under me (I'm the senior in the team). She not only took twice what was estimated to finish it (and it was not a tight estimate), but when she gave it back to me, it was incomplete and I had to finish it up. It was a very simple html page with a simple js component... This isn't the first time. Because she refused all this time to even dedicate a single hour of training at work, she never learnt how to do stuff like this and so she struggled with it. And because she's been saying, from the start, that "she's not capable of doing front end because she never did it on her previous jobs", she just goes on like this... I talked to our boss in private and pointed out that things couldn't go on like this as we were 5 devs and only 1 (me!) had a serious knowledge of frontend development. He was understandably pissed because all the other devs had took the lack of "pressure" on them as an exscuse to avoid elarning the stuff hoping they'd never had to do it... We all had a meeting after that and our boss pointed out this is unacceptable. He said he needed another frontend dev and the options were a) converting one of the 4 devs, or b) hiring a new person. He pointed out, though, that option b) would have caused troubles as there's no room for a new dev, and the ones we have aren't exactly 120% overworked.... He gave my coworkers the chance to offer themseves voluntarily so he wouldn't have to force anyone, ie, someone would have to step in. The end result? All hell broke lose after the meeting. Two of them kept quite and said nothing, hoping othews would step in (one of them does 70% of his work as a sharepoint frontend dev, and yet, he doesn't want to learn frontend...) The other two said that "they would rather quit before doing fromtend" and "there's no chance in hell they were gonna have years of javascript on their cv". One of them said "I don't wanna do frontend otherwise if something cool comes up, I'll be left out..." I tried to explain to her how unprofessional that attitude was, and how if she wanted to play it like that, then we could all put our cards on the table and they wouldn't exactly be at the top of the hierarchy... They both talked to my boss about it, he will look for a new person to accomodate them... but this unacceptable and I don't know what impact this will all have on me. Jesus, one of them keeps refusing to learn the stuff and keeps making a mess of things... I remain the only full stack dev who's profesisonsl enough to avoid this behavior, but I also refuse to absorbe all the other work just because these idiots decided they have a right to "refuse" a certain tech because they don't like it or wouldn't look good on their cv or something like that... Why the f* did you come to a web agency if you now refuse to do web development? What can I do in my position? How can I avoid being penalized by their actions? [link] [comments] |
If you know Linux DRM / KMS, I really need some help. Posted: 07 Apr 2018 11:14 AM PDT I've been following a tutorial on using the DRM / KMS system without ANY libraries (like libdrm). Just the DRM / KMS by itself. Because I'm working on my own desktop environment, that does NOT use Xorg in any shape or fashion. This is the tutorial: http://betteros.org/tut/graphics1.php - and now, the question is as follows: I go into a virtual terminal, I login, I navigate to the executable that I just built, and I run it. And... It says that I have 0 framebuffers, 0 crt controllers, 0 connectors, and 0 encoders... And no graphics show, at all. is it because Xorg was running while I was testing it in a virtual console? I have no clue what I did wrong, and yes, if it's of any help, I've looked for help else where also, and it all uses libdrm, which I want to avoid. I have the code in a pastebin, and here is the link: https://pastebin.com/5MWeU3rz - a lot is copied-and-pasted from the tutorial, but that's simply because I wanted to try it out, before I actually do anything major with this, so I know it actually works. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong?? Thanks in advance!! [link] [comments] |
So how does one run Windows 10 and Linux Mint simultaneously, properly? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 07:25 AM PDT I got it working before, after using Mint from a bootable USB - I'd had some troubles with the virtual machine stuff beforehand but eventually got it working through Virtual Box. Bit rusty at the moment and I'm self-teaching given the fact i've left university. Any tips or help available here? cheers in advance. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Apr 2018 10:09 AM PDT This is my first time deploying an application and I keep reading conflicting blogs, forums, etc. So I figured I would askprogramming. On my local machine, I am running a Golang restapi connected to a MySql database. The front end uses Reactjs. I used Rekit to create the app, which relies on create-react-app. I already have AWS S3 buckets set up to host my images and such. I am about to start the process of dockerizing them into 3 separate containers. I am just releasing online for a few friends and family so they can help me test some of the functionality while I learn how to deploy changes and such to the cloud without taking production down. That being said, I think I should be learning kubernetes which will handle my docker containers failing and restarting, monitoring how many people access the site and other data. Is this accurate? I mainly ask because I have read reviews that say setting up Kubernetes on AWS is a pain. What is the next step for a noob developer doing his first project once he has finished the alpha version on localhost and is ready to go to the cloud? [link] [comments] |
What do you guys use for Automated E2E Testing? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 10:54 AM PDT I've been looking at new technology for e2e testing. I'm especially interested in using e2e tests to validate that images, 3D models, and more render correctly in a web page. What do you guys use? Any programming languages, operating systems, or other ideas are welcome here! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Apr 2018 01:39 AM PDT OK, so I don't know if this is the right place to ask this but whatever. I looked at this trailer and the graphics are amazing. But we still have the problem of the character going through things. Especially at about 2:50 and forward. And it always seems to be when walking in terrain. Characters are always walking through grass, leaves, twigs, etc. instead of those things being pushed away by the body of the character. This has improved somewhat since the N64, PS1 era but not that much if you compare to how texture and size and physics has improved, IMO. Why is that? Is it incredibly difficult to avoid this? Or is it just not being a priority? [link] [comments] |
What are some amazing blogs related to Python? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 08:04 AM PDT |
Posted: 07 Apr 2018 09:21 AM PDT I was reading a little about remote phone commands and couldn't find anything out. I recently had discovered spyware on my phone so I wiped it clean in the hopes that I could start over. About an hour after I got my phone set up again I got a text and all it said was 5702. Anyone know what this might be about? [link] [comments] |
Streaming application with JavaScript frontend? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 05:01 AM PDT We want to make an application, thats reads data from a server, that streams data, and visualize the incoming data in a web browser, but I have no idea, how to do it. Here is the flow: we have a device, that records data ; the device sends the data to a server ; the server streams the data (its actually written in C#) ; then finally, we have the front-end with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and want to visualize it, on a chart or graph (using Canvas). Can you give me some advices, what structure should I use, or what kind of libraries? I have never done streaming applications before, but I'm really interested in. My initial thoughts were like: write some JS code that makes requests to the server, like in every seconds, and then process the data and visualize it? Or are there any better solutions, protocolls, patterns for this kind of problem? Thank you in advance! [link] [comments] |
Explain "dependency injection attack" joke Posted: 07 Apr 2018 02:40 AM PDT So I was watching this fun little lightning talk by Gary Bernhardt and the last joke (cca 3:37) left me confused. The whole talk is facetious and at this point, it gets hard for me to navigate the irony. He shows the following Java code: The RHS of line 3 is highlighted, and he comments that this is what's known as a "dependency injection" attack. Now I (think I) know what dependency injection is, but is there even such a thing as a dependency injection attack, or is that a joke in itself? And how does the code sample relate to dependency injection? Is casting to Thanks for any help clarifying this :) [link] [comments] |

Is there any programming certification? Posted: 07 Apr 2018 12:46 AM PDT I am not a professional programmer, I am a chemist who knows a little bit about web development, Python and C, and I would like to certify that on my resume. Is there any certification that I can take in order to do that? Like language certifications but for programming basically. [link] [comments] |
Which tools are needed to logging program activity? (Windows) Posted: 06 Apr 2018 11:01 PM PDT Hey, I need to find tools, which are logging program activity such like changes in files, registry or Internet download (my school project required this) sorry for bad English, non-US here [link] [comments] |
I need help understanding this object oriented java program Posted: 06 Apr 2018 10:25 PM PDT Hi all, I have this java program from school. where the teacher gave us some of the code and we had to just come up with the logic for only one class. I'm having hard time understanding how they all work. If someone is willing to have a look and explain what each line of code is doing. that would mean the world to me. Its not a very big. if you are the kind soul that is going to do this, you could just comment in the actual files and re upload it. [link] [comments] |
