FREE Udemy Bash Shell Scripting course Posted: 06 Aug 2019 08:57 AM PDT https://www.udemy.com/complete-bash-shell-scripting/ I just noticed this when I clicked around on Google search. Thought I'd share. Currently free. Maybe it's always been free, have no idea, thought I'd share. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Aug 2019 06:45 PM PDT Where is the best place to start to learn SQL? I have very basic knowledge but want to get better at it to help my career path. [link] [comments] |
Going to give it my best last shot. Posted: 06 Aug 2019 04:27 PM PDT So as the title hints, I tried to learn programming many many times in the span of the last three years now, but I always ended up getting really frustrated and gave up on the learning process altogether, I'm guessing most of it is because I wasn't doing it the right way. Bitting more than I can chew, I would get overwhelmed super fast and not be able to continue. [link] [comments] |
Odin Project vs FreeCodeCamp vs Full Stack Open? Posted: 06 Aug 2019 02:13 PM PDT Which is better for learning web development? EDIT: Im about to finish MOOC Java course offered by University of Helsinki and really enjoyed it so I guess I'm gonna go with their new Full Stack Open course [link] [comments] |
I feel like I'm not getting anywhere. Posted: 06 Aug 2019 05:43 PM PDT I'm done with coding boot camp with Thinkful, and I don't feel prepared at all. I created a couple full-stack apps, including one with the full MERN stack. However, that last one isn't fully functional (some logic could be done better), doesn't have many features, and I have no ideas for any other projects. Despite going through hours and hours of data structures, algorithms, etc. (through Thinkful, YouTube, and others), I have very little understanding of it. Everyone keeps suggesting I do the HackerRank interview prep kit, but 1) Why prep when I can't even get an interview?, 2) I don't even understand what the first challenge is saying. I'm over two years trying to do this. I first completed Colt Steele's Web Developer boot camp, then went through lots of FCC front-end stuff, then most of Colt Steele's Advanced boot camp, before finally enrolling at Thinkful. I've been networking via LinkedIn and in-person. Two people offered to mentor me during face-to-face conversations, and then they decided they over-committed and didn't have time (mind you, I didn't ask them or anything). I've been applying, creating personalized cover letters, sending them directly to recruiters / heads of engineering or what-have-you. I've been looking at support and QA roles as well. What the heck do I do? Do I toss in the towel and accept that I won't get a job doing this? [link] [comments] |
What are your thoughts on Codecademy? I'm currently using the 7 day trial. Posted: 06 Aug 2019 11:51 PM PDT What are your thoughts on Codecademy? I'm currently using the 7 day trial to test out their Python lessons. In my opinion, it's a bit of a disappointment. I've noticed many bugs/errors and I'm only two sections in (ie. I'm on the Functions project). There have been instances where I enter the correct code but I get an error response indicating that they are unable to test my code. I review the answers portion of the platform and the code I've entered is identical. This makes no sense. Is there something else you'd recommend besides Codecademy? [link] [comments] |
Running jQuery function on single changed row rather than all rows? Posted: 06 Aug 2019 11:46 PM PDT The code pasted below works fine and runs on select change, on multiple rows. My problem is that I would rather it only would run on the row which the select change occurs. Eg. if I change the select on row two I would like the code to run on row two only and not all rows. Does anyone know how to achieve this? Any and all help much appreciated! [link] [comments] |
Learning asyncronous programming Posted: 06 Aug 2019 11:37 PM PDT Hey, so I'm trying to learn javascript. But the only languages I've studied and used are both java and python. So I don't really have a knack for asynchronous languages. My first javascript project I spent a day trying to figure out why appending a simple array was returning an empty list. Once I figured it out I couldn't properly wrap my head around it. So I'm sitting there, wondering how this all works. Is there any resources which would help me understand javascript and asynchronous programming a bit better. I've already watched this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aGhZQkoFbQ so I have some idea of what's happening. Thanks for your help in advance. [link] [comments] |
Do I need to know CSS in depth before moving to bootstrap? Posted: 06 Aug 2019 12:04 PM PDT I just know the basics of CSS. I was wondering if jumping to bootstrap now would be a bad idea. I also know the basics of JS. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 06 Aug 2019 10:49 PM PDT Hallo! I am not really sure where the best subreddit for this question is, however i thought i would start here. I am wondering, does Windows store a list of all MAC addresses that have been associated with the computer? Say you have a WIFI adapter with MAC: A, if you take that wifi adapter out and replace it, you will now have MAC: B MAC: B is now the default MAC address for the computer but i am wondering if windows stores this information somewhere and if i can retrieve it. Is the original adapter always bruned into the bios and i can read it? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Today I made my first GUI app(s)! Posted: 06 Aug 2019 10:46 AM PDT I knew how to code in C++ for quite a while and made a bunch of CLI games like battleships, hangman, connect four, etc. After a while I also started learning Python for some scripting, but either way each time I tried switching from CLI to GUI I always failed, I assume because of the difficulty of C++ in general the frameworks are also more complex. First I tried QT and was immediately intimidated as I had no concept either of pointers nor of OOP concepts. After learning some more general programming and C++ I tried learning JUCE so I mix programming with my other hobby of music production and I kill two birds with one stone, and while this time I understood what was going on making something was still taking a ton of time and I got bored really fast. Then a few days ago I randomly picked up C# for no particular reason and made a tic tac toe CLI game. The syntax was very similar to C++ so other than a few different methods it was very easy to pick up. Then yesterday I started watching this series and after following the tutorial for episode 5 and half of episode 6 I decided to finish the calculator project myself. Then using what I learned in those 2 (1.5?) videos I tried making a tic tac toe game with a GUI. I tried in the past once in JUCE and failed miserably. I finished it in a few hours today and I'm extremely proud of myself, it's my first GUI game. For beginner programmers like me: Don't get discouraged if a new concept you're trying to "level up" to seems intimidating and try to switch perspective, like it was the case for me, maybe making GUI apps isn't so hard, maybe I am just in the wrong language. Explore multiple options. For the more experienced: Can you take a look at my TicTacToe code and give me advice/criticism on it? What is and isn't good practice, what could be improved, clean code, etc. Here it is: https://gist.github.com/Lastrevio112/e7cf65ea1ddf58336d73cbeedc07a80c One criticism I can say in advance is that I couldn't make it resizable. For some reason the Windows Forms drag and drop thing didn't work how I expected at the beginning and even though I anchored the grid to all 4 directions it wouldn't change size properly when the window was resized, and the buttons wouldn't fill the grid either when I dock-filled them either, so I just made them all a fixed size and left it as it is as I didn't know how to fix it. I'm curious if the way I thought of coding it is similar to the general standard of coding a GUI app, like the main event loop/gameloop and all that I did. I have a feeling it's not lol. Either way what I did there with the gameloop being called each time a button is pressed would definitely only work for a turn-based game. Additionally if you want you can also check my calculator code: https://gist.github.com/Lastrevio112/a4eca776c8ab89206fd5c72501ed6b27 . I feel as this code might be less clean. I don't know the way the guy in the tutorial did it but I definitely didn't like how he was doing it so I did my version. The textbox focus thing he did was terrible, at least to the point I watched it to, as you couldn't even use the buttons to type properly because it would automatically send you to character 0. His version also let you write impossible expressions like more signs next to each other or more periods which I fixed. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 06 Aug 2019 10:05 PM PDT Just looking out at any JS developers that might be able to give me some guidance on what I can do in this project. I am struggling here and I feel like I'm quite close to completing it. this is the link to my project in codepen https://codepen.io/Rosstopherrr/pen/GVRvxJ. in the CSS file, line 156 to line 163, I have commented out the background URL because this is making my project slow. The aim of my project is to have a 3D can products (like a coca-cola can) displaying on the screen, rotating clockwise so the viewer can see the full detail of the can. When the cursor hovers the can, the can will increase the size so it displays in much better and full detail! The next step I did was created a JS carousel. There are 10 slides, aiming to by less than 10, but the idea is each slide will have a 3D can. Every time the slides move left a new flavour and a different colour can will appear. This was done successfully too. But putting it all together has been a huge headache. I have created a loop for these cans to be in each carousel slide but it slows the browser big time! Like can't even see the cans but a black rectangle shapes... (this is why I commented the background for the next 2 cans out in CSS) Could anyone please help me and explain what I am doing wrong. What can I do to solve this, please! Thanks, Friendly. this is the last bit of the JS file to show how the loop works const clickFn = () => { const $bottleSize = getElement('.container'); // const $bottle1 = changeBottleSize(); // const $bottle2 = changeBottleSize(); // const $bottle3 = changeBottleSize(); $bottleSize.style['transform'] = 'scale(0.9)'; return $bottleSize; } $('#products article').each(function(index) { $(this).append(initApp()) }); function initApp(index) { const $container = getElement('.container'); const $bottle1 = createBottle(); const $bottle2 = createBottle(); const $bottle3 = createBottle(); [$bottle1, $bottle2, $bottle3].forEach(($bottle, i) => { $bottle.classList.add('bottle' + i); }); $container.append($bottle1, $bottle2, $bottle3); }; initApp(); I am calling the initApp function to display 3 cans, which names are bottle1, bottle2, bottle3, which again, can be found in the CSS file - line 156 to line 163. But I have notice that can 2 and 3, or bottle2 and bottle3, is not in the right slides for the carousel. What am I doing wrong?? [link] [comments] |
Advice on tutoring high school kid in programming Posted: 06 Aug 2019 10:02 PM PDT I'm currently a student studying computer science in university and have been asked by a friend if I would like to tutor her younger sister (who is around 12 or 13) in programming. A little bit of background: she was exposed to IT and coding through a subject in high school and her mother would like her to continue to gain exposure to it as she showed some interest in the area. Now, I don't have any previous experience in tutoring but my friend asked me because her family knows me as well and they would prefer a private tutor. I am thinking of taking up the offer but I am not really sure what it would involve. Would anyone be able to give any insights into what it is like to tutor someone in programming? How do you teach them, what kind of resources did you use, and how can you be a good tutor to someone? Thank you in advance for any replies [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Aug 2019 09:47 PM PDT I am currently a Full-Stack JS Developer in React/Node/Express, and already have a decent amount of JavaScript experience. I am thinking of learning another language/framework to complement my Node/Express experience. My exact Tech Stack for my current team is: TypeScript, React, Node, Express, PostgreSQL, Redis. I want to point out that I am not specifically interested in AI / ML, DevOps, nor Back-End/Distributed Systems roles. I'm not interested in any of that. I'm interested in focusing on Product Engineering / Development for Full-Stack Web Development working on relatively greenfield projects in Tech Hubs. I also want to point out that I'm specifically not interested in FinTech companies, so no banks or banks posing as tech companies (Capital One, JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sach's, etc.). I know that's additionally picky, but like I already have a relatively stable job, and get to be extra picky for my next role since it's not urgent. I just want to know what the most relevant things to learn currently for my specific situation is. My primary interest is in Full-Stack Web Developer positions at Product-based Tech Companies in Tech Hubs. I am considering the following three things:
Which of the three options would be best for me to focus my time on currently? [link] [comments] |
Looking for feedback on how to tidy up my code, as well as if it can be condensed. Posted: 06 Aug 2019 09:38 PM PDT I wrote a simple program for DnD dice rolls and just finished! Its my first program I've actually finished! I was just hoping to get some feedback on how to tidy up my code as well as if there is a way to shorted by using different methods. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Aug 2019 05:43 PM PDT Can anyone give me advice on the best place to learn? How can I do some math on multiple keys (if key1.value 1 + key2.value / 2 == 0) then it will only show those results. It would take too long if there were a lot of objects so want to know how to do it in the DB first. [link] [comments] |
Whats the IDE feature of getting straight to the correct indentation with one action called? Posted: 06 Aug 2019 09:12 PM PDT When I go down a new line, I want to get to the correct indentation with one tab. Not 2, 4 or 5. Here is what I mean in eclipse. First - what's that feature called so I can google it? Second - how do you do that in Intellij/VSCode? Getting to the correct indentation takes n tabs in nesting depth and that gets old real fast.

Posted: 06 Aug 2019 05:20 PM PDT I'm a newer web dev working on an ecommerce site and I'd like to hear what y'all think best practice would be on a specific issue. A more senior dev has put forth a design for a product category table that includes a "color" column. He wants to use this to color badges on the front end and also potentially use it for BI reports later on. The idea of storing visual styling info like color in the database really bothers me as it is functionally irrelevant and I've always been taught to leave styling up to the front end. I also know we could easily style this in the front end and that any graphing library will easily allow you to pick colors for categories...so not really sure why we even need it as a DB column. This category list is also unlikely to change frequently if at all so it's not like these colors will change much. I'd like to hear your thoughts and would love to see some articles or expert guidance if you can find it. Thanks! Tl;dr: what are your thoughts on storing visual styling in the database?

Going to do work experience in a week at hospital's IT department. Any tips/advice? Posted: 06 Aug 2019 09:02 PM PDT I don't think it's, like, tech support because it's at a separate campus thingo. They didn't give me a whole lot of information about what I'm going to do specifically. It's just 'information systems'. It's for school - we have to go for a workplace for a week and just sort of see what it's like. I'd just like to be as helpful as possible and I'd like to learn as much as possible. I guess I know a little more about tech than most kids my age but not a whole lot, so I'm not sure I'll be able to do help with that much. So if anyone has any advice, or could tell me what to expect, that would be cool. Also, would you say jeans and a shirt are okay to wear? They're not ratty, they're neat and clean. Thanks.

Presenting a proposal to my employer for coding tuition assistance. Help! Posted: 06 Aug 2019 08:51 PM PDT I will be presenting a proposal to my VP of Engineering and CEO. I want to present something that is realistic, and where the value to the company is as substantial as possible. I'm currently in a different department, account management, but I've been learning to code for a while. I'm taking the plunge into taking actual courses to get there already haha. I've been self teaching but making it official. I know there will be a lot of web development opportunities in the future, but don't want to portray an assumption of being employed in that capacity when I'm done. Context done- I have some questions. If you guys are willing/ able to answer any of these I'd greatly appreciate it.
Sorry this is so long. Just trying to make sure I don't miss something you might need. Please be nice, I'm just trying to approach this correctly. This is super important to me TL;DR I'm taking courses for coding, and want to make a proper proposal for tuition assistance from my employer. How can I present value for them in return/ what can I offer in return? **** Previously posted but resubmitted with changes. I used the word "bootcamp" before for simplicity but it's through a college. Apparently "bootcamp" is a trigger word and people only commented about how they hate bootcamps***** [link] [comments] |
Tell us about when you’ve used a ”data structure” or an “optimal technique” in your production code. Posted: 06 Aug 2019 08:32 PM PDT I am curious to know when you've implemented something that we hear so much about during interviews. Specifically, I'm interested in hearing about production code in a live project in industry. Tree, Tries, BFS/DFS, Lexicographical approach, sorting linked lists in place, sliding window, etc. etc. I code in C on embedded devices and we don't put an emphasis on all of that as much. We more are a "lazy" group but when we want to get flashy we can. I had to hand write a Json parser because I couldn't find a C library to handle Null or other extended ascii ranges. Also I didn't know shit about CMake and had to move on because I burned too much time trying to sort out how to use CMake and such. Anyways, when is your favorite time you've implemented something that would make an interviewer drool over it's implementation and execution? Also, what language was it? [link] [comments] |
