    How to practice the development of large-scale systems?

    Posted: 26 Nov 2019 07:31 AM PST

    Initially posted in r/cscareerquestions, but it's not necessarily career-related, posting it here.

    Since not everyone has opportunities to do it at work, how to practice in playground projects if you don't have a cluster at home? I personally feel quite interested for the area, but have difficulties to keep studying only the theory.

    My current approach is to create a small project – with real data – design an architecture for specific constraints, and estimate how far it could go. Later, I start thinking what I would do to improve it to reach the next level.

    I wonder if there are other or more effective ways of doing it. With this approach, I constantly see myself paying too much attention to implementation details and not really practicing concepts or tools too out of my comfort zone.

    "The Interruption" -- A philosophical compsci short story

    Posted: 27 Nov 2019 04:09 AM PST

    Text found here: https://zzascape.blogspot.com/2008/04/interruption.html

    Beginning:

    It's never a pretty sight to see a NaN spoiling for a fight. I try to avoid them and their modern-day conundrums when NOT impossible. In this case, he was an exception and I had to deal with him. As is typical of the breed, he tried to corner me in a logical blind ally, bit by bit. Annoying but methodical, these NaNs.

    "Are you familiar with the phenomenon called Catalytic Change?" he queried.

    He must have assumed I was an open port for all comers—a newly-minted PID perhaps. I sent him packing with a NAK. Or so I thought, for a moment later I was interrupted again. I complained to the Handler that I was being irq'd. To no avail. This NaN was not resting until he flagged me down.

    So I asked myself what would be the harm in hearing him out? To be truthful there was a bit of pride in this sentiment. Pride because it takes no median intellect to out-maneuver a NaN AND my status would surely be raised if I demonstrated good exception handling technique. So I allowed myself the indulgence, feeling the weight of the many queries that would result if I succeeded.

    Concurrent Processing vs Parallel Processing

    Posted: 26 Nov 2019 10:11 AM PST

    Am I the only one who thinks that names of these two should change somewhat. Concurrent processing implies that multiple things are being processed at the same time but that is not what concurrent processing is but is parallel processing.

    Checked out the latest MXlinux19 distro. It's pretty awesome and fast too . Managing and creating workspace is one of the best features to watch out for.

    'Rummy' card Game using pygame

    Posted: 26 Nov 2019 01:56 PM PST

    I am a First Year CS Undergraduate and I recently got this crazy assignment of making a 'Rummy' card game using Pygame framework in Python. If anyone has any experience in making a card game or any other game using Pygame. Please do help . Or else suggest some sources where I can learn it in detail.

    How to grasp "recursion"?

    Posted: 26 Nov 2019 01:34 PM PST

    I barely can understand the examples and they fascinate me. They really make me super super excited and feels like magic.

    However i don't think i can ever use a recursion function myself or solve a hard problem with knowing how to use it.

    For my background, CS major, junior. Please tell me it's okay to feel like its a lot.
