| Is there a sub which deals with mental health as it pertains to devs? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 10:09 PM PDT Hello all. I'm a software developer, and sadly I don't think I'm a very good one. I've also lived with depression my entire adult life, going on twenty five years, and I believe that my poor performance is a direct consequence of that. I've looked but I don't see any communities which deal with mental health issues from the perspective of being a software developer. I believe that there would be value in being able to discuss these kinds of issues with people who also know the unique challenges that people in this field face. (I've tried discussing things like my difficulties in understanding existing code with my therapist, and while he's a good counselor he doesn't have that experience.) Is anyone aware of a sub-reddit like this out there. Alternatively, if there isn't, would there be interest if I were to create one? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do i need to encapsulate my programs? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 07:30 AM PDT I am a newbie and i recently get to know about encapsulation. It is little bit confusing like, where should i exactly need to encapsulate the programs?. The real question is, Why do we need encapsulation and why do we just can't make a good programs only by using public fields and methods? [link] [comments]  |

| Self-taught Devs- Best way to learn is by building your own projects? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 06:17 PM PDT I have read many posts on this subreddit. The general consensus for the most part being the best way for self taught developers to learn is through building your very own applications as oppose to learning from vid tutorials. Where i am currently in my coding journey i guess one would consider me just passed the beginners stage. I am currently trying to learn the MERN stack. I have completed some courses on javascript/html/css and have yet to get acclimated with react, mongo and node. My questions are 1.how did you go about learning through building your own projects? Did you simply just hack away by purely googling the answers and experimenting?
TL;DR - aspiring self taught web developer need opinion on the process of how to go about building own projects,why do many devs feel its the best way to learn,and when did they start building their projects [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 06:31 PM PDT I've taken some programming classes before, mainly: Java, Python, and C++. After learning about variables, structures of the program like OOP, and ways to code a program/project to do what you want it to do, I've learned that some things that work in one project will break in another or will seem counter intuitive. I'm now doing my own project and that's what I've been noticing. I've had to refactor a good amount of my code base and just do everything off-the-wall resulting in a lot of progress. Before I've tried to do flow-chart mapping and the such that were recommended on websites. But I found when I did that it just worked against the project for some reason. For instance, If I tried to anticipate the future (like a possible bug in the future) and try to fix it, it usually opens up another loophole. So now I just do it off-the-wall (as everything occurs but of course I still take in concepts like trying to be as efficient as possible) so this results in a lot of progress and I really don't have any bugs that break the code. But what if? Do you guys anticipate the future or just code in the present? I'm also beginning to find that I'm having to refactor a lot when a new type of system or feature comes up (but this is mostly because I've never attempted such a project before). Is this part of everyone's programming experience and are there ways to minimize this? I'm also not coding in a standard way (I believe that I'm breaking a lot of conventions that I was taught in class) but at the same time, I'm making some new progress. What has your experience been like? Has anyone developed a system where they just code and things just fit into the puzzle of their overall app./code-base? I've seen a lot of coders that don't seem to even need to refactor code. The area that I seem to be struggling in is the creating a solid structure for your code base (minimizing refactors). Has anyone been able to learn this part completely and is now able to express everything like writing a story? How did you overcome this challenge? I just basically want to code a really solid structure so that I don't even need to refactor anymore. I would want my code to live on for many years without me touching it and then one day (many years later) I decide to come back to the project and add some new things and it all just clicks. Is that even doable? Btw. right now I'm not coding in a traditional language like C++ but it's still the same thing. You still need to make use of a lot of logic. [link] [comments]  |
| Any information on how temp codes are generated/implemented? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 10:05 PM PDT Specifically wifi. At some cafes, you'll get a temporary code with your receipt that will give you an hour's worth of wifi on their network. Two questions. [link] [comments]  |
| self-taught programmers, what do you do to interact with other programmers? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 09:42 AM PDT I'm attempting to self-learn CS for a year since my parents are willing to support me financially and see where it goes. I may go to college or bootcamp after. Most likely college but I want to take a break from education for a bit. My only issue is that it gets frustrating stay in front of my laptop alone all day long. I know there are meetups and such but are there any groups out there where programmers meet on a consistent basis and just talk and work/learn together? [link] [comments]  |
| What type of projects can I get into to build a portfolio? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 10:48 PM PDT Sorry if this question has been asked before, I did search but nothing came up with my specific background. Im a first year SE student and it was my first set coding. We learnt MATLAB, C and Java and I had a blast when it came to object orientated design. Im in my break now, and everyone in my class has these massive portfolios, past internships and linkedn profiles. I'm never going to be the smartest in my class because I personally struggle in an academic setting, but I want to be able to get an edge over others by building up a mighty portfolio. I don't know what types of things I should be doing though. An App? Web App? Super simple implementations of algorithms? I'm willing to devote a fair bit of my time towards this, I enjoy coding after all. I wouldn't say I'm a Java/C god in any form but I'm a relatively quick learner, so anything that could be picked up in a few weeks is fine. Thanks all, and once again sorry if this is too frequently asked :s [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 01:00 PM PDT I'm in an odd predicament. I teach a beginner high school (grade 10) computer science course where my students learn C++ using ONLY OnlineGDB focusing on the logic and math of programming. I'm teaching in an environment where I cannot install any new software nor can I open, say, a freshly compiled .exe file. I won't get into the back story, but I have a student re-taking my class who took it two years ago. I'm eager to let him teach himself a new language or further his skills, but I am extremely limited. I would hope I could give him bi-weekly goals and online resources to learn, say, Java, C#, or Python, or perhaps even learn and apply more complex C++ projects. What are some resources I could give to this student? I'm not looking for AP/University-level material, just something fun for a high school student. I will also note that I do not have any background in computer science and am self-taught, so industry standards and terminology can often evade me. [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a way I can run a program in my atom text editor and have it run in PowerShell as well? Posted: 25 Jun 2018 09:22 PM PDT I want to get into machine learning but I don't know how to get my program to run in PowerShell and atom at the same time. I have only used PowerShell once and that was for a Django project, so I'm not sure how to use it when I'm not running a server. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 04:55 AM PDT Say someone has crippled hands, is an amputee, is legally blind, or has any other permanent ailment that affects one's ability to physically interact with a standard keyboard, mouse/trackpad, and monitor. Are there any software tools, hardware accessories, or organizations/communities that exist to help them type and/or interact with computers effectively enough that they could become a software developer?

| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 05:57 PM PDT Hello Everyone ! I have intermediate skills in Java Programming. I am good with AWT and Swing. I also started JavaFX few weeks ago and making a good progress. Then I decided to use different library to experience different look and feel. I worked with JFoenix and it was quite simple. Here now I am stuck: I want to try JMetro library which has Metro UI but the problem is that I dont get it how to use it. Unlike JFoenix (which was just a .jar file which I had to import) this one is confusing. I saw some sample codes from GitHub but no luck :'( . Can anyone here who is familiar with JMetro help me. Just need some tutorial and basic guidelines of using it. Any type of help would be appreciated. Please Excuse my bad grammer :) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 11:47 PM PDT Autosizing TextViews Guide. For best user experience with text, Material Designer recommends using a dynamic type, instead of smaller type sizes or truncating larger size text. We made this much easier to implement with the introduction of TextView AutoSizing. Let's see how to use it, how to customize it, and what caveats you need to be aware of. With Android O and Jetpack, text view gained a new property, auto size text type, which allows you to optimize the text size when working with dynamic content. To enable auto sizing, set auto size text type to uniform. This scales text uniformly on horizontal and vertical axes, ignoring the text size attribute. When using Jetpack, make sure you use the app namespace. Note that you should not use wrap content for layout width or layout height for a text view set to auto size, since, well, it may produce unexpected results. Instead use match parent or a fixed size. Turn off auto sizing by selecting none instead of uniform. You can also use auto size programmatically like this. If you want to customize your text view more, we have some extra attributes for you. Auto size min and max, text size, and step granularity. The text view will scale uniformly in the range between the minimum and the maximum size in increments of step granularity. If you don't set these properties, the default values will be used. Programmatically these values can be set via this method. To have more control over the final size, if, for example, your app needs to comply with specific text size design guidelines, you can provide a list of sizes, and it will use the largest one that fits. Create an array with the sizes in your resources, and then set the auto size preset sizes attribute in the XML. Or do this in code by providing an array of preset sizes and their unit. Using dynamic sizes for text views makes your app more interesting and helps your users decode content quickly. So start using the auto size property. Fine tune it as you see fit. And improve your user experience. [link] [comments]  |

| Any alternative to Udacity Intro to Self Driving Car Posted: 25 Jun 2018 11:34 PM PDT Hello, I just finished my bachelor degree on Computer Science and Engineering from a public university. Still looking for a job. I am a resident of Bangladesh. I was looking into the Udacity Intro to self driving car nanodegree. But the price is way out of my reach, consider that average yearly income here in my country is around 1700 dollars. Is there any alternative course for self driving car or autonomous car?

| Can't decide between taking Harvard CS50 or the MIT Python course Posted: 25 Jun 2018 10:39 AM PDT I will be a freshman majorimg in computer science at a university that uses mainly Python and C++ next year. I am newish to computer science. I learned some Java at the beginning of high school but don't remember much. On this sub people really recommend the Harvard course for beginners and I think it would give me a better understanding of everything. With the MIT course, it would focus on Python and I think that would really help prepare me for school. They both seem like they will be time consuming and I don't think I will be able to fit both in this summer. Does anyone have any advice? It would be very appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 04:37 PM PDT Hello guys, This question has been bothering me for a while now. I tried researching to find more about this subject, but I just wasn't successful. I know how to make my own simple library like return me the square root of something, but how do I actually do the advanced stuff? Like how do I get the current position of my mouse? How do I make a function to extract the content of an excel sheet? How can I write a graphics library, even if it is a simple one? How can I see what keys are pressed on my keyboard while the programm is running? I am not sure if I will get an answer, as most of these kinda questions get answered with "stop reinventing the wheel and just use what they gave you". Just No. It isn't realistic to build a whole new gui library out of scratch I know, but just show me a way how I can at least get more familiar with this subject. Show me a book, a website or some resource, because honestly I couldn't find what I was looking for. I hope I could explain my struggle and I would be more than happy for any help. Thanks in advance [link] [comments]  |
| 3D Animation Program (Beginner BTW) Posted: 25 Jun 2018 10:32 PM PDT Which program would be the best to learn 3D animation rendering. I checked the FAQ and maybe I was not looking hard enough. I thought of using Python since it's beginner friendly, but if anyone has recommendations I would love to hear them. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jun 2018 06:39 PM PDT Is there a good material, to learn C++ fast? I am a computer science graduate and I have written a lot of C and Java code, so I seek something that is more straightforward (no need for programming logic and object oriented introductions) and, if possible, using some recent C++ ISO standard.
