Do you ever feel you’re overthinking while learning? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 08:46 AM PDT I often have this issue of keep asking "Why?". In a way I feel I'm hindering myself doing this. [link] [comments] |
How I Went From a Depressed College Dropout to a Software Engineer Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:04 PM PDT Hey everyone, I wanted to share my story for some that have dealt with depression or hard times on their path. I was depressed and dropped out of college and got my way through it to be hired as an iOS Software Engineer. I hope my story can inspire others to keep going and keep building! [link] [comments] |
I just got accepted into a free 16-week python course. Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:32 PM PDT So I'm super excited. I was just accepted into a 16- week python course that's local and by the end of it I'll be able to pass the Microsoft technology associate certificate exam. Which will hopefully open more doors for me. (I'm tired of working in a warehouse) So should I try and start learning as much as I can before it the class starts or should I wait until I have the syllabus to know what I should focus on. I'm excited and I want to be prepared as possible. I've been wanting to learn python for a couple months now, but procrastination has gotten the best of me and with this course it'll hopefully get me off my ass and start working on it.

Learn all design patterns in an hour. Posted: 12 Aug 2019 12:06 PM PDT So I created this mini-course over all classical Design Patterns as a series of 5 youtube videos. An hour to get over all of them + 10 minutes of intro: Wanna give it a try? Check it out here [link] [comments] |
Course sequencing for self-study? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:04 PM PDT I'm someone who has been interested in learning CS for years and is finally taking the time to devise a self-study plan. My problem is, I'm a bit overwhelmed by all there is that I want to learn and it's paralyzing me from actually getting started. In addition to learning to program in a few languages (namely Java, Python, C and Assembly), I would like to learn about a wide variety of topics:
I've browsed these topics online and think I have enough of a surface-level understanding to know I am interested in learning them, but I am not sure which order would be best. Are some topics prerequisites to others? What would be the most "natural" way to move through all these topics? If you could break each bullet point into a few major subtopics and "put them in order", how would you? I know this is a huge question and that I sound very overeager, but just know I'm someone who really needs to 'big picture' a goal in order to get/stay motivated while working towards it. Roadmaps have always been extremely useful for me so I'm hoping I can get some help, that way once I start studying, I'll always know where I am and where I'm heading next. Thank you!

What's the original source of data for APIs like Google Places, Yelp, Zomato, etc.? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 08:41 PM PDT If I wanted to make a program that used restaurant data, I could connect to an API like Google Places, OpenTable, Yelp, Zomato, MapBox, etc. Where does this data originally come from? Right now I want to take some basic information about restaurants (name, address, GPS coordinate, etc) and add to it for my own project. I figured I would make my own database and basically a private API for my project, but according to the Terms of Service of the above APIs, you aren't allowed to save their data on your own machines. So it's not like I can connect to their API and save the data I need from all over the country and then add my own stuff on top of it. I know that Google can't own that some restaurant is at "123 Fake St." for example, but that also doesn't mean I can just privately save that same data if I get it from their API. So where is the original dataset? Where did all these companies compile this from and how did they do it without copying each other? How can I do the same? [link] [comments] |
a question about learning to code: Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:51 PM PDT How to gain more experience of coding and become a better coder? -------------------- For example, let's take the people who started about 7 years before I did. These people must be miracles when I started learning to code. Is there any way I can gain experience (or something like that) to catch up with them I know this is not a race. [link] [comments] |
How to make a user input list in scheme? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:48 PM PDT I need to write a function where the user inputs contents to make a list. The program should run till the user inputs q to exit. [link] [comments] |
İs “Head First C” free or not? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:44 PM PDT I found a free pdf on the internet as i wrote "Head First C" on Google. But also the book is on Amazon. I don't want to use a product without paying for it if it is not an open-source product. So does any of you know if that book is free or not? If it is not free, what free book would you recommend me for C? [link] [comments] |
Web dev move to Android dev, can I learn Kotlin without review Java? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:56 PM PDT Hi. I have been in software developer for around 2 years, mainly with web, data engineer (python and js). I am looking to change to Android ( new to mobile development )and would like to know, can I just learn Kotlin without relearn Java? I learnt basic Java before ( in uni), but it was like 4-5 years ago and havent touched it since then. Is it recommended to learn Kotlin and used it in production environment with little knowledge of Java? [link] [comments] |
Could you help me make sense of nested classes in Java? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:40 PM PDT Quoting from this article:
So inner classes could be defined as "nested classes that are NOT static"? If that's so, why don't call them that instead of creating another confusing name like "inner classes"? You can't be inner without being nested, and vice versa. Also local classes. Literally first time I ever heard of this. Why would I ever want a local class of anything? Do people even use this? And another point is: why? I searched on google, youtube, stack overflow - everyone are more than willing to explain HOW nested/inner/anonymous classes work. But no one bothers to say WHY should I use them. I recall inner and anonymous classes being used extensively in Android so I assume they have a use case, I am just not sure what it is. Funnily enough I started reading up on nested classes because when reading on lambdas I saw that you should understand inner classes before lambdas, and yet I understood the purpose of lambdas before understanding inner classes.

Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:36 PM PDT Which programming language should i learn deeply ,which will sustain its value in future...? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:16 PM PDT Hello, i apologise if I am posting this in the wrong section. I am looking for a program that when I press a certain button the coordinates of the mouse cursor are saved and when pressed again the cursor will be positioned in those coordinates. If anyone knows a program that does that please let me know, thank you. [link] [comments] |
Places to find logic puzzles not necessarily related to programming? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:16 PM PDT I been looking into interview evaluations and asking some people and I found that there are a lot that are some really cool logic puzzles. One of the ones a friend told me was: Consider a square shaped building. The building has water surrounding it that goes 1m out from the building in each direction. You have two planks that are 1m long. How can you cross the water to get into the building without getting wet? I really like how it's a question that is difficult and requires creative thinking and problem solving, yet it's still simple enough that an elementary school kid or even a toddler would have the knowledge to solve it. The hard part about it is not any kind of specific knowledge (which could be taught :)). Are there any sites or resources that you guys know of that have these kind of puzzles? I'm good with these kind of puzzles in a programming setting also of course! Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Help developing architecture for movie ticket booking app [Interview Question] Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:13 PM PDT I designed the database tables and everything which has a seat-booking table which has the information of the who booked and which ticket. I'm looking to implement users being able to choose a few tickets and then the systems gives them 300 seconds to complete the transaction. During this duration this ticket should not show as open to others trying to book the same ticket. I could write this data into the relations tables but since this is volatile I'm thinking of storing it in a cache. But then during querying to display list of available tickets we would have to combine the booked tickets from the rdmbs tables and the tickets being booked from the cache. Is this a good approach. Could someone point to a architecture diagram where I can understand how it's done in real systems. Also examples of how it is exposed as restful api would be great as well. [link] [comments] |
Django - Login forms and loading forever. Posted: 12 Aug 2019 10:59 PM PDT What's up Reddit? The problem: I'm going through Corey Schafer's tutorials (specifically, this one), and I've copied all the code letter-for-letter, but when I try to log into the admin page using my superuser credentials, Chrome's loading icon becomes stuck in the phase where it's moving backwards. Also, any other links on the website shut down permanently after this process starts. More context: This is the second time this problem has occured, and I've already completely finished this tutorial series once (yes, this issue made the entire project unusable). Now, I'm hoping to do a much better rewrite, but the problem is present right here at the very beginning. What I've already tried to fix this: I've already tried migrating, flushing my database, closing/reopening my server, and creating another superuser. I believe that it's just any form in general that breaks the site. I have to close/reopen the server for the site to start functioning at all after it happens. So basically, logging in/submitting data is impossible, which defeats the purpose of my project goals. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks. EDIT: Yes, I have also cleared my cache, just in case someone asks. It still isn't changing anything. [link] [comments] |
Advice on working on projects as a beginner? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:07 PM PDT I am working through tutorials on Treehouse. While I do find the tutorials thorough and informative, I am still learning html and I find it very easy and tedious. I know it will start get challenging once I start learning CSS and I am trying to push through it but I am also eager to start a few projects I have in mind. These websites will require things I have not learned yet so should I just jump into it? Also I still want to continue learning on treehouse so how should I go about splitting my time between learning and building things? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Aug 2019 04:25 PM PDT I understand that all languages have specific advantages and disadvantages but I wanted to hear some more specific opinions on Java. I just graduated with my bachelor's in computer science and am looking for work now (any bonus tips on how hunting would be great as well). We never did any work in Java, instead using Python and C++. I don't find a lot of Java specific postings but many mention it alongside C++ and other object oriented knowledge. The general idea that I hold is that Java is good for existing code, but most new projects are using other languages, especially since Android apps are moving more towards Kotlin. Do others agree or am I way off? Would it be worth it for me to write a quick Java program to throw in my GitHub to boost my resume? [link] [comments] |
What other types of positions/opportunities can a coding boot camp open up besides development? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 06:35 PM PDT Grads from my bootcamp have moved into all types of programming roles, from QA to Full-Stack development. Additionally, some are UI/UX designers, BI analysts, Product and Project Managers, etc. Wondering what other types of roles are out there for a bootcamp grad. [link] [comments] |
Not sure how to explain how to do this for my programmer? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:57 PM PDT I have an application that is saved as a PDF. We have an online application form where users enter Name, Address, Occupation, etc. I want all that data superimposed on top of the correct spot on the PDF file. My programmer keeps recreating the PDF file and it doesn't match it exactly. I want the text that users input to go right on top of where it is suppose to be on the PDF file. I do not want to recreate the file because it doesn't match exactly. How can I explain this to him? Is there some function or something he should look up to match what I want? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:47 PM PDT So.. ive recently started trying to make my own Minecraft Server. Im not used to programming in YAML, so i tried it. When it loaded, there were alot of errors, (mostly format). Online parsing helpers wouldnt help at all because i couldnt understand what it was trying to communicate to me, so i decided to turn to reddit for help, a platform with real people that i can understand. so here i have a permissions yaml and dont know whats wrong with it. any hwlp would be amazing! thanks! (btw i dont have all the ranks setup yet.) [link] [comments] |
I've walk through Reselect's source code to see closure and memoization in practice Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:31 PM PDT When I set out to optimize my react-redux app, I've gone through plenty of blog posts. Many of them mention using Reselect to improve performance by memoization. I'm a firm believer of learning to reinvent the wheel, but don't reinvent it and decided to comb through Reselect's source code to see memoization in practice (instead of only learning it for interview prep😅) [link] [comments] |
What kind of javascript developer profile am i looking after ? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:22 PM PDT Im having abit of trouble finding the right javascript profile here for a project. The project isnt an ordinary webpage, its a flow-generator - where you basically can create some flows ( using canvas ) with some different elements that can be placed in the order they want, the elements can have animation cycles etc and all will be build up as a timeline on the side which can be tracked through either step by step or as a preview 'run' mode to watch the complete flow unfold. There are almost no backend involved as it should run in the browser, there are less standard-frontend involved (ofcourse besides a canvas and timeline and coordinates/properties etc ) - but the actual work is lets say clientside javascript where its more about making the different structures and calculations that can ex pair the flow to the timeline, and keeping the structures synced + doing data conversion between different formats. Ive tried to search in the React realm, but here i dont seem to get much love, either they define themself as more backend guys on node/express etc - or they define themself as frontend - and guess there isnt enough react or angular in the above specification of the project, because i simple cant find the right profile that find that interesting to do ? Any suggestion to what i should be aiming at here to get the right interested people into such a project ? in my eyes it would be a dream for someone that just loves javascript - but maybe its too simple a task so i dont need someone that is really an expert ? maybe theres an angle in JS development where it would make more sense than React etc ?
