| For all of you who are self-learning Posted: 27 Sep 2018 04:21 PM PDT I just want to say great work on what you have been doing thus far. Taking this approach shows initiative and thats something to be proud of. As someone who self-learned, I know how hard it can be at times. One thing that really helped me through the process was affirmation in what I was doing. I had a few people along the way who I could always ask if I was on the right track. Because of those people and communities like these, I was able to land my first job 2 years ago. As a big thanks to this community I would love to offer you all that same thing. It really helps to have that extra nudge of encouragement or even just a chance to share with someone what you have been doing. If this sounds like something that would be helpful to you, please feel free to message me or share your story in the comments. Good luck and keep working hard! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 27 Sep 2018 06:57 AM PDT I want to learn programming, but I have zero interest in traditional web development. When I brought up an interest to learn programming, everyone I work with suggested webdev (html/css/js). No thanks. The interest just isn't there. Something like web development is a very broad subject that uses a multitude of platforms and technologies. I'm more interested in something narrower in focus, but deeper in depth. But frankly, I don't know a lot of other areas of work or genres or niches. Or the ones I do, I don't think I know enough about them. Here are areas that I know about. What I know about them might be completely off however.
That's about all I know exists. There is likely a mountain of topics and niches and areas that I don't know about. Like Reverse Engineering (which I know crap all about) and the like. If you work in or at least know of other areas of development, coding, programming etc that I'm not aware of please share! I'm trying to brainstorm so I can find the best area of interest and strike up some motivation. See of something really jumps out as "WHOAH! I need to learn that." Thank's so much!

| Posted: 27 Sep 2018 01:02 PM PDT I finished law school in Norway 2 years ago and I have been working as a junior lawyer and as legal advisor for different companies. I stumbled through law school with mediocre grades and finished as an average student. I didnt like law or had any interest. It was just that i had to finish what I started. Now that I have this degree and zero motivation and interest for my job or any work that is related to documents and hours of document reviewing, reading , writing, rewriting. Waiting for decisions on my apeals and doing the same thing over again and gving advice about things i do not know about. I feel depressed. I spend more time reading about technology and new trends in tech and just exploring the world of tech. Ive had interest in computers since i was 12. I used to build my own pv . I learned how to customize and make my own pc. How to install ram, processor, hardrive and so on. I was always updated in the newest trends in technology. I became the tech guy in the family. But i didnt pursue my natural interest in computer science or technology. In April i decided to learn programming and started out with Freecodecamp. I have done all the projects in html,css and javascript and i loved every minute of the struggle i went through to learn the languages. To see the effect of my code and see it work just releases so much dopamine i my head. My plan is to develop an android app by february 2019. I also have a smart mirror project with raspberry pi. With all that said. Im deciding to quit law and take a degree in Robotics and Intelligents systems. I want to learn more about eletronics and work with hardware. I want to make something from the ground up. I want to learn more about AI, machine learning etc. Can someone give me some advice on wether i should pursue a career in computer science? Where should i start? What languages should i learn? Sorry for the bad english and the long read. This is my first post on reddit. Thanks for advice! [link] [comments]  |
| How do I differentiate between running javascript client side and running it server side? Posted: 27 Sep 2018 11:49 PM PDT This is the only answer I can find to my question, but I still don't quite get it. I'm not sure what "serving a static file" to a client really means, even after reading the article. I've created a couple of web apps using javascript and deployed them using firebase/heroku/github pages, but I still have no idea whether these apps run javascript client side or server side. I feel like this is an easy question, and I'm just missing fundamental information on this subject. Can someone ELI5 for me? Side note: The only information that I really come across when trying to find information on this either explains the difference between node.js and javascript or explains the difference between client side and server side programming...neither of which answer my question :( [link] [comments]  |
| What app/sites should I code using? Posted: 27 Sep 2018 11:41 PM PDT I've been doing coding in class using Javascript, html and css and wanted to begin doing my own projects for fun and to expand my knowledge. However, the site we have been using in class for assignments, IPTO, is mainly for class. Despite my best efforts and google, I cant find an appropriate website or application to begin making my own code at home. What are your suggestions? Would there be any built into windows 10? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I've looked for ages with no success. [link] [comments]  |
| Learning programing, mostly for 2D games and unity Posted: 27 Sep 2018 07:12 PM PDT Hey Guys, I am mainly a 3d artist in the video game industry, however I was always fascinated by programming in general. I recently started code academy's python tutorial which is actually quite fun and I am also trying to learn a game engine specific language called GML. So my story is following, I do not think I am particularly great in math, nor do I want to get too deep into the very technical side of things they teach in college for instance. The main reason I didnt take computer science in college is because of the crazy amount of theoretical math classes that would wear me out alot. Its not that I wouldnt want to learn it but i feel like the speed in which college would teach (germany) would perhaps be very fast and would ultimately burn me out. Im not trying to create a new operating system or something or build a new robot, id simply like to accumulate knoweledge on a more basic and practical level such as writing some programs or just coding games in general. I know game programming requires some knowledge of math as well, but i should be able to learn it. I really like python as it was very easy to pick up and learn due to its easy "code" or syntax(is that the right term for it?). But I ultimately want to learn C# for unity. I am taking a course on python on code academy. My main goal atm is to learn the programming logic and just getting used to it. Is python a good language to learn ( i plan to buy a book at my local bookstore called 'python for beginners') to get the fundamentals of programing down? After python i would ideally love to learn C#. I would really love to get some input from anyone who was in a similar situation, Am i on the right track or do you recommend me something else? Do you know some sites or resources that would cover and explain some of the math required for every programmer? I apologize in advance if anything I wrote seems a bit too naive or too cringey. Thank you Side note: I am currently using game maker 2, which has a custom programing language called GML. Its also a very easy syntax and also very forgiving. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Sep 2018 12:49 AM PDT Hi there! I have a "score" for a game that I would like to send and receive via UART, sending an 8 bit frame at a time. How does one bitshift the unsigned long into the 4 respective frames, ready to send? And would I be able to receive the score frames into an array, for example buffer[1], or would I need to create a new array to store all 4 frames? Cheers in advance [link] [comments]  |
| Hi, I'm a novice on coding under Lua, and I'm wondering how to make a heart shape with vectors. Posted: 27 Sep 2018 09:26 AM PDT I'm not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask, but I have been learning to code with Lua with at least 6 months and learning Python alongside, and I already got the concepts of Lua, so I wanna learn to go harder. The thing is, I am weak with vectors, since I never had that in my school education for some unknown reason :P I already know the basics of them, but I wanna use their potential to the highest. I've been currently making mods for certain games, and I'm trying to make a bullet hell of a sort. And I'm currently trying to code in a bunch of projectiles that can form a heart shape. I figured I could use the velocity to make the shape of the heart, but I don't wanna make unelegant statements to make that heart shape. And what math field do I call this? Geometry? Trigonometry? I don't want to keep saying to people I'm "making gimmicky shapes with vector" math. Thanks for help in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| What kind of project would I be capable of with 4-5 months of learning C++? Posted: 27 Sep 2018 12:37 PM PDT Sorry for the stupid and possibly vague question, but I'm a senior in a technical high school who has just began studying C++ at home on my own, and I basically have to choose a term paper where you do something practical (Such as writing a program, or soldering something) and describe it step by step. I want to do something in C++, but I've just started learning it and I have no approximation of what I'll be capable of making in a few months. The problem is I have to state what I'll be doing in a few weeks. Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| So, how am I actually suppose to use Git on my computer - confused about this Posted: 28 Sep 2018 12:23 AM PDT So, I understand git and mostly how it works - the basics of creating repositories, editing repositories, the version control aspect of it, etc. - although I don't fully know how to do this stuff yet. I don't understand the logistics of all this or how one goes about using git to save files on your computer. I have Bash downloaded on my local PC - from what I understand, that is a console? I know how to navigate through directories, make directories and delete directories, and that's pretty much it regarding that and those commands. I know I am making my question sound more difficult than it really is, so sorry about that, but just stick with me - how do I use git - not just how to commit, make files, etc. but how to actually use it on your computer and how it works? Whenever I write code, I just open my laptop, open Sublime, open project or create a new one and then just starting writing code on my computer, saving directly on my computer and opening the project directly on my computer to see my progress. Easy. I have a folder on my desktop called "Web Dev" which holds all my relevant files, projects, documents, pictures, etc. for web development. What I don't understand is using git somewhere within all of this that I just mentioned. I just simply open my laptop, open sublime text, start working, making new saves and constantly previewing my work. Doing this with git and github involved, I have no clue where to start or how this would even work with git. I know I made this question much more complicated then it needs to be - but can someone clear this up for me? TL;DR - in simpler terms I'll try - how do I use git when editing or writing code on my computer with sublime text? Like saving a file - I want to save it locally, but then save it on git also. How does this work? Or lets say I want to save this specific project as a specific version, how do I save this with git while still locally on my computer? Am I still going to use file, save, save as, etc. as if I was locally saving a file? This is what is very confusing to me. Once I start using git, do I have to use a different code editor? I know you don't have to use a different one, it was more of a rhetorical question to demonstrate my confusing with it. Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| Resources for improving interview algorithm questions. Posted: 27 Sep 2018 07:49 PM PDT When I go to interviews I'm often asked to code something simple. Reverse this string, make a recursive function that does this etc. Does anyone have any good resources for practicing these kind of things? Language doesnt matter [link] [comments]  |
| [C#] What's the point of downcasting/upcasting Posted: 27 Sep 2018 11:15 PM PDT So, I think I kind of understand the syntax... But why would you want to do this? Why don't you just create (or instantiate) the class type you want? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 27 Sep 2018 10:49 PM PDT Hey guys I'm working on a section in my website. The section below the about section specifically. Anyway I wanted to make that section's top slanted to make the design stand out more. I did this using clip-path: polygon() This has made the section's layer or z-index higher than the nav button, which sits fixed on the screen as you scroll. I tried setting the section or div's zindex to something lower but that didnt work, any ideas?? [link] [comments]  |

| Univeristy Final Year Project Ideas (Mobile Game) Posted: 27 Sep 2018 09:19 AM PDT Hi everyone, I am about to start my final year project at university in which I get to decide what I want to make and write my dissertation on. I still have about a week to decide on what I want to make but I'm currently stuck for ideas since I need a project that will be challenging enough to last for the majority of the academic year, but nothing too large that will take longer than that. There aren't too many restrictions on the project, the only rule is I have to develop a mobile game for either Android or iOS. I've emailed my supervisor and they suggested implementing features such as AI for single player games or some sort of multiplayer functionality. In summary, I'm just in need of some inspiration and I would appreciate any opinions/suggestions on what projects I could do. Many thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Im a computer science student . Need some advice. Posted: 27 Sep 2018 09:55 PM PDT I'm in my last year comp engg. I don't know shit in programming and frankly my marks are pathetic as hell.(which is worrying me and my parents who are worried about my future ) I want to learn java and Python (by self learning) so that I can land some decent job or get admission in decent university. Problem is I'm extremely demotivated and I'm irregular in practicing programming. I wanted advice on how to motivate myself to do programming everyday and to be consistent as I know I can get distracted easily. Plus which languages should I learn and where should I start? [link] [comments]  |
| How did you guys motivate yourselves when starting? Posted: 27 Sep 2018 09:49 PM PDT I'm new to JavaScript and it's my first language. I'm at the way beginning. I just learned what a loop is. what's something fascinating that I can do that will motivate and entertain me so I can learn more? [link] [comments]  |
| does anyone have a premade emscripten environment/gui compiler Posted: 27 Sep 2018 06:00 PM PDT I use ubuntu 18.04 on my home machine and have tried for the past month to unsuccessfully install it and make em-dosbox. I think I've reached the end of my tolerance for it and just want to be finished. I'm not one to be emotional, but spending countless nights trying to get it to work and nothing working just crushed me. [link] [comments]  |
| [AWS][TWILIO] Create AWS ECS service for Twilio Service Posted: 27 Sep 2018 09:43 PM PDT Hi, this community seems super supportive, so I thought I'd try my question here.
I am attempting to use Amazons Elastic Container Service to run a server which can be consumed by Twilio. Currently I have a Elastic Container Service cluster using Fargate that is running a service. The service has load balancing (although I only have one instance so I'm not sure why I need it) and "auto-assign public IP" turned on. I can hit the service using the assigned DNS record and I get the expected output through tools like Postman. However, Twilio fails to consume this endpoint. The same service hosted locally using ngrok succeeds. I have a few theories. One is that I only have an http address not an https and that Twilio can only consume https. Another is that the public dns is port specific and Twilio doesn't expect that. I attempted to solve both problems by using amazon's route 53 tooling to create a proper url and host my container there. My hope was that this would get around the port issue, and I could issue a certificate for that url so I could enable HTTPS. I haven't figured out how to host my container there or do any sort of redirecting from the url to my auto generated dns. Anyway, any help would be great. I'm a moderately experienced programmer, but this kind of "piping" trips me up! [link] [comments]  |
