| "What percentage of your time is spent coding?" Posted: 24 Mar 2020 07:19 AM PDT I got this question yesterday during the initial phone screen for a Mid-level developer position at a fairly large enterprise software group. At first, I was taken a little aback. It's kind of a weird question that I've never really thought of before. I was brutally honest and I said "probably a little less than half". And then I explained that, being an in-house developer for a consulting group, my job isn't just to be a "code monkey" (didn't use that phrase, lol) but to interact with our biz team to ensure we're on the same page about biz requirements for our card, and then on top of that, whenever I pick up a new feature card, I spend a fair amount of time researching any technologies/other parts of our system i need to solve a problem, or maybe I'm not "writing the code" but actually debugging some weird logic hole I've found myself in. And then, sometimes I just need to take a break and not look at code for a short amount of time, give myself some time to reset before I dive back into a problem. His response was "Okay, well we generally like for our engineers to be writing code 60-80% of their day" which doesn't really mean a whole lot to me. I could tell he was pretty new at this particular recruiting position, because he was pretty much straight up reading off of the job posting when discussing the requirements for the position. To me, this precedes the kind of work environment where you're judged by the "amount of lines of code you write", as opposed to the quality of your work output. The question itself just seemed like a really odd thing to ask by an HR rep in a phone screen. Thoughts? Maybe I'm really not a very productive coder, or I'm not giving myself enough credit for "how much time i spend coding", or what I define as "being productive" Either way, they're moving forward with my candidacy, so it isn't all bad. I've just been thinking about it for this last twelve hours. [link] [comments]  |
| Can I use a JS/NodeJS library for a mobile app? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 09:33 PM PDT Title, I recently found an excellent API that I would like to implement in my mobile app. The API is written using Javascript and NodeJS, is there a way to use that library in an iOS app? What would the stack look like in that case? Swift and JS for the backend? The API is here: https://github.com/justadudewhohacks/face-api.js/ [link] [comments]  |

| Question about writing my own stock tracker/executor Posted: 24 Mar 2020 08:39 PM PDT Hi all! I am an experienced programmer but new to stocks, but want to write my own stock program to automate day trading for me, based on parameters I write. I am separating the program into two sections: tracking and executing. I want to focus on the tracking first, so I can start creating my own metrics before I get into automating transactions. And I have a few questions to anyone who has any information about this: 1) I have seen a few API's that claim to provide the info I need for tracking. But I need it to be up-to-the-second tracking, not daily tracking. I havent seen any API's that advertise this, are there any out there? 2) For executing, assuming I can find a way to get accurate up-to-the-second data, how would I go about making a stock purchase/sale? I have found very little to answer my questions, but I know it's possible because Robinhood does it. Can anyone provide me some insight? [link] [comments]  |
| im lost about what to do after learning to code Posted: 24 Mar 2020 06:43 PM PDT hello! i've been learning java for about a year now, and starting with html+css and javascript eventually. i went to a university and did a full year course in java and sql, and im learning front end (and more back end once im done with frontend) i have what i consider an acceptable understanding of OOP and the logic behind back end programming. but i realized that i am lost and dont really know what to do beyond the IDE.for example i want to create a website right now, that has my information and a couple java backed apps in it, i was thinking about doing something in the lines of an interactive game that i could put in my website, this is all for job reasons, i would like to put this website in my CV so any potential recruiter could see it . i feel like most courses out there teach you the actual language but not the intermediate programs that allow you to connect for example a java project with a sql database and all that to a website. any advice or guide is really appreciated. im sorry if this is a bit much maybe i didnt look around enough, but i wanted to ask someone who actually knows about all this in practical terms. thank you !

| For those of you who have written books, what software did you use to write it? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 02:36 PM PDT Was it Microsoft Word, LaTex, something else? I'm considering writing a book and am wondering what type of software I should use to write it. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Macbook Air 2020 for basic fullstack web dev? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 11:39 AM PDT I've been looking for a personal laptop that I can potentially use for fullstack web development. I'm waiting for the Macbook Pro (MBP) 13 but now that new Macbook Air (MBA) has recently been released, I'm wondering whether MBA is sufficient enough for my needs. I spent most of my computer time (not including work) studying and practicing programming. To be more specific, I mainly watch tutorials in youtube, read articles and do some programming using vscode. Sometimes I fetch big github repos and browse the source code (and perhaps run them if I find it easy to do so). Even though I'm considering MBP, I can't actually easily afford it. I have to save for few months before I can have enough to buy it. It feels like I know the answer while typing this question but what do you think? Is the new MBA enough for development and everyday usage? If not, should I wait for the MBP? Or would you be recommending a different portable machine? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2020 04:23 PM PDT So I'm hoping someone can give me some advice / point me in the right direction. I'm learning to code. It's going well so far. Im looking at all the languages and it seems quite overwhelming. I'm currently in a course for HTML, JS, PHP & Python. I keep reading about Angular or React Frameworks. Are these better than learning JavaScript? Does it replace the need for JavaScript? [link] [comments]  |

| Floating Point Errors While Compositing Transparent Colors Posted: 24 Mar 2020 03:37 PM PDT Hi all, I'm working on a web-based pixel art editor. I'm using canvas to display the working image. However, I am starting to implement layers, leading me to start working with color compositing. Through Wikipedia I found this paper which I feel explains the topic well. I have implemented the "premultiplied alpha" methods defined in this paper. I have started to test versus how canvas "natively" composites two semi-transparent colors. I am finding that the values are close, however the floating point rounding errors seems to be creeping through, and I only imagine this will get worst with more layers. A demo of what I am talking about can be found in this jsfiddle. I'm wondering if there is some kind of way to handle this. I do not believe my logic is wrong, however I believe it is directly related to rounding errors. Ideally, I would like to match the browser's behavior here 100%. I tried digging into the Firefox source code a bit to find something, but I didn't come across much. Any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| using socket.io with node.js workers Posted: 24 Mar 2020 02:48 AM PDT Hi,I have setup my index.js file which has a express route and a socket server.Whenever a request comes to express server then it calls the method defined in worker1.js file. worker1.js read a large json file and send each json to worker2.jsworker2.js read that json file and sends to worker3.js after a interval(based on timestamp property associated with that json).and worker3.js just console that to the terminal. But i want to worker3.js to send this data to client socket.But i am not able to achieve this. I tried many things like exporting the socket from index.js to worker3.js and vice versa.But nothing seems to work everytime i get unhandled error. [link] [comments]  |
| How to copy framebuffer into a cuda operation with a reasonably low overhead with pycuda? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 01:55 PM PDT So I tried using pyscreenshot/pycuda for this but the overhead was around 800ms which is way too much given that the application will be running a game. Now what would be ideal is the ability to directly copy the framebuffer, run the cuda code on it, and then copy the results back into system RAM. I don't really have that in-depth of a knowledge of the low-level specifics of nvidia cards and I tried looking around on the internet but there seems to be not much specific on the topic.

| Simple Problem With Turtle Module Posted: 24 Mar 2020 01:50 PM PDT I was doing a tutorial on the turtle module and I got an error with this code: #Turtle Graphic in Python import turtle tim = turtle.Turtle() time.color('red') tim.pensize(5) tim.shape('turtle') AttributeError: partially initialized module 'turtle' has no attribute 'Turtle' (most likely due to a circular import) Could anyone explain what this means and how to fix it?

| Airbnb-like map with Google Maps or something else? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 09:57 AM PDT Hello all, Does anyone have an experience with Google maps API? I'm trying to create a search feature like Airbnb maps, that lets users put in their address and then the closest addresses near them will pop up. The catch, is that the addresses that popup need to be approved addresses (much like Airbnb units available). Does anyone know a good way of doing this or possibly a tutorial that shows how to do this? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| I have to enable 2 factor authentication on an ASP Net App Posted: 24 Mar 2020 12:34 PM PDT So at my latest task is to implement a 2fa system with just a one time password implementation send to email/sms. I was looking at implementations online and a lot of them are using ASP net identity. It seems more flexible and easy to use but i'm not sure. Right now we use simple membership for authentication. Should i migrate to identity? were targeting framework 4.7 [link] [comments]  |
| What kinds of issues should I be looking for. Posted: 24 Mar 2020 11:44 AM PDT Hi guys, I am new to programming and I am not running into an error and don't know how to troubleshoot this issue I am having. I would love it if you guys could give me some incite. I am building a program that access a few databases : login / messaging / reviews, I have finished setting up the login system and reviews system, however upon creating the messaging system when I try to create an object that access the login database the program does not send me a error but stops showing my logged in user. My thoughts are that possibly you can't access a single mysqli database with two objects at the same time? That seems like a reasonable problem, are there any others and if it is this how do you gain access to info about which user sent a message while using the login system? Thanks so much, I know this is vague but I will be glad to answer any questions anyone has on how my program works. also I have it on github but it is private rn. If i need to make it public I could do that. [link] [comments]  |

| Amazon SQS - An API to delay queue messages Posted: 24 Mar 2020 11:26 AM PDT Hi, I've always found scheduling queue messages to be a pain with SQS. SQS has support only up to 15 minutes. Anything beyond that requires you to build your own service to handle the delays. I've always wished there was an API that just handled the scheduling for me. As such I'm developing an API to make scheduling messages to SQS dead simple. Call the endpoint with your payload and delay time, and it automatically publishes to your queue or topic when you need it. I have a prototype here: I'd love to hear some feedback on this idea and whether it solves a real painpoint. I'd also love to hear about the last time anyone had to do job scheduling - how well did your solution work? Would anyone hacking on their own projects find this useful right now?

| What's the best way to properly document a project? What do you use? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 10:37 AM PDT Due to the current pandemic we have halted development on two of our main projects currently finished and working but not ready for release. We are a small team at my work that focuses on software products while the businesses main money making operation is precision engineering manufacturing. The two projects that need documentation are vast,with about 1 million lines of code each along with a custom backend. I made sure during development that we added good notes in the code, but my boss wants something akin to a wiki.The projects are specific enough that not just any dev off the street will be able to walk in and contribute to this project and it took me a few months to really understand the existing code when I started. So what do you guys use, or recommend? [link] [comments]  |

| Are tools that can generate a dependency graph between classes in your program? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 09:39 AM PDT Hi Redditors, I am working on something that is re-using someone else's existing project and it's not too large of a project but it's not small either, in the past, I just had to flip through the code manually and understand the code but recently I wonder if there are tools out there that can create a dependency chart where you can see the relationship between classes e.g. who is inheriting who, who is using who, what is calling what, etc. I have heard of static code analysis and code complexity analysis but I've never worked with either of those, does anyone know if those or anything else could provide a solution to this kind of problem?

| Simple number sequence forecasting, how? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 09:17 AM PDT I want to predict the next number in a sequence. For example: - 2020-1-1 50 - 2020-1-2 60 - 2020-1-3 45 I have a limited list with 20 numbers and I want to find a way to do this. I don't want simply the average (50 + 60 + 45) /3 - I could use linear regression for this. How could you do this ? [link] [comments]  |
