Posted: 02 Jul 2020 04:26 PM PDT I am an experienced software engineer who is used to interviewing and mentoring everyone from the most junior to extremely senior candidates. I've worked on video games, compilers, linkers, distributed systems, HPC, desktop application development and more. For people interested in such things, I am offering guidance and mentorship. This can be in the form of reveiwing your CV, suggestions for next steps and answer questions from the interviewers perspective. Given my experience, if you want to go into web development, I am probably not the right person for you. I am much more suited to those who have an interest in more traditional software development. As for how many people I can take on, it all depends on the response I get to this and how much individual attention each person needs. What I can say though is that I'll do my best to respond to you either way! [link] [comments] |
Why are programmers such cool people? Posted: 02 Jul 2020 02:11 AM PDT This is a serious question. I am a nurse and I have a marketing degree also. Neither of these professions are filled with nice people. You want stuff you pay for it, you want to learn stuff you pay for it and (from my experience) in medicine people love to know stuff patients don't. You need a degree for it and if you don't have it even if you have the knowledge you will never be as good as we are. But since I started trying to learn to program . Shit there are so many cool people. So many authors giving stuff away and trying their best to get people to become successful programmers. Not afraid they would steal their jobs or that they will become successful without having a PHD. And they are all so funny. I had no idea programming was so filled with jokes. So why is everyone so cool, generous and nice ? [link] [comments] |
Working as a programmer? What do you actually do all day at work? Posted: 02 Jul 2020 03:58 PM PDT Hi all. I've just started my journey into learning how to code (at the ripe old age of 37!). I find myself wondering what you actually do all day working as a software dev? I'm getting the hang of the basics now but how do the concepts i'm learning translate into an actual job? What does your day look like? How different is it working on a very large codebase compared to a small one? How different can different companies feel? I love coding, but want a better sense of if i'll love coding for a living. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Where is the "fuck go back" button on git? Posted: 02 Jul 2020 09:49 PM PDT Situation 1: Accidentally push script with password to Github. Want to go back to last commit so my password isn't on Github. Situation 2: Commit changes without first pulling changes that teammate made (because I know I'm going to overwrite them and don't want them to overwrite mine). Git freaks out because my commit is different. How do I tell git "fuck go back"? [link] [comments] |

How to get over the fear of failure when programming Posted: 02 Jul 2020 10:45 AM PDT Cs junior here Every time I start a new project I always come to a failing point and get massive anxiety that I will never be able to fix it or figure it out, and then procrastinate the project over fear of never figuring it out. Is this common? [link] [comments] |

Junior Dev Self-Taught Portfolio Review Posted: 02 Jul 2020 06:15 AM PDT Hello Everyone, I am a self-taught software developer who has been self-teaching for roughly 18 months, I thought since the whole world is on fire and in the UK there are NO junior dev jobs I would post my portfolio for a review. PLEASE bear in mind that I do NOT have a degree or any kind of formal training I have done my absolute best to try and produce projects from my own ideas and have not followed a single youtube tutorial copy and pasted code and then just changed some colours and text in HTML and marked the project as my own. I am fully aware that there are going to be some bugs and things that I have missed but considering I have done this all on my own with the feedback provided I plan on going back to my projects and improving them the best I can. I plan on making one more project which will use a user authentication page and an API, once that project has been completed I will not be making any more projects as I believe I am MORE than ready for my first junior role and just need to keep looking for a company that will allow me that opportunity to grow. Sorry for the semi-rant Please see my portfolio https://buxey.github.io/personalwebsitev2/ Thanks Jack [link] [comments] |
Is PHP worth it? (JS+Python+PHP || JS+Php) Posted: 02 Jul 2020 07:08 PM PDT Hello, I know Php is great and all. But, I'm currently learning Javascript and Python and in the future want to learn Go (and probably Rust.) I've used Php and can write some code in it but I'm not at the level where I can say I'm proficient in Php. So my question if I don't brush up my Php skills and go the full stack js and prolly Django side of things... will I miss something out? Here is what I want to do: > Javascript: node, typescript, vue > Python: Automation, DS, Django > Php: brush up, learn Laravel But I think being proficient in PHP is an overkill once I am good with Python and Javascript...

How much should I be commenting on my code? Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:33 AM PDT Most of the serious programmers who have held jobs for a long time say your code should be obvious to everyone including yourself, and you should very rarely need to comment. If you do, it's bad code. However when I watch tutorials, some seem to suggest you leave comments every which way for every little thing even if it's completely obvious that that play method... plays something. I have a feeling the truth is somewhere in between? [link] [comments] |
Why the F are there so many programmers who use switch cases instead of doing polymorphism? Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:13 AM PDT I can't believe this. They prefer using a big fat ass switch case. So this "Amazing" engineer (that's how he called himself). Prefer doing instead of this Seriously. I met like 10 people who codes like this and they're coding for over 10-15 years now. WTF is wrong.

Posted: 02 Jul 2020 11:15 PM PDT Hey Guys. I'm a bit of a lurker here. I have had a tonne of interest in Computers ever since I was like 12, but I didn't get the chance to complete it in high school because the IB( International Baccalauréate) School that I attended didn't offer I.T. It was during this time that I had discovered tumblr and making themes for a webpage seemed pretty cool. I could only tinker and add or remove code to make it look weirder and better. But didn't learn how to do so. I would just like to know why learning what inspired you to pick up programming, how it has benefitted you and the best advice you could give a younger person starting out. Thanks. 💪🏾 [link] [comments] |
Posted: 02 Jul 2020 10:32 PM PDT Ok so I'm 14 and learning programming, I already think of myself as pretty good with python and I am starting to learn the basics of C cause idk I just was bored in quarantine. But I've seen so many things about "You shouldnt learn C in 2020", and things like "C++ is too hard, learn C#" etc. I am not sure which to go with. Does anyone have some advice? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 02 Jul 2020 08:03 AM PDT Hey, I write low level code for a medium sized company as an internship, basically just data visualization with powerBI, nothing super crazy. And yet, I feel worse then ever. I know senior developers can easily do what I do in a week in one day. I have 20 tabs of stackoverflow open, 20 different Google searches open - I know I can't compete with the real developers out there. I don't even have a GitHub page, (my major isn't compsci, I just do programming for fun and I managed to score myself a good role). On the other hand I have a lot of other experiences to show for, which makes up for the lack of programming... But it still sucks. Is this really what it's like? [link] [comments] |
How to make a program search for something that is not in the sorted list python Posted: 02 Jul 2020 07:30 PM PDT this gets the last element of the list. im trying to figure out a way for it to find something that is not inside of the list. [link] [comments] |
What is wrong with these scanf statements? Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:46 AM PDT I am making a program in c and strange things happen with it, in the pastebin file there are sections "Configuration" and "Taking user options" which have multiple inputs. Some anomly happens with these inputs, so first the "File manager" and "Desktop environment" are normal but then it switches straight to the system() command and does not execute "Do you want to configure script". When i moved "Do you want to configure script" to the start before two previous inputs, this behavior stopped. That is not all, when it comes to the "Configuration" part, one of the 2 statements that scan characters goes away and does not scan it. Help me please, I have no clue of what and why is going on. My code - https://pastebin.com/WBNJzKzu [link] [comments] |
Why programmers don't listen to users? Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:40 AM PDT Is this what programming is about? Seriously tho, why google doesn't add an option to just sign out of one of your multiple gmail accounts? Why the hell do I have only option to "sign out of all accounts" and then sign in again in the account/s that I want to keep signed in? This is incredibly annoying, almost rage inducing. Why don't developers don't remove these extremely annoying things that make using the thing so fucking uncomfortable? Will I have to do this to users too when I'll become a programmer? Then I don't know if I want to become one lol EDIT: alright, so it's just because the general fact that statistically most people are too ignorant to even care, yet alone even complain about it, ok, just like the 90/10 rule of all internet users (lurkers/posters)... it's just that I'm that tiny minority that cares and therefore no one cares... you know, I realize now that I really didn't want to rant about that specific thing rather than about statistics that most users are oblivious to tiny details and just carelessly go with flow. anyways thanks for the explanations, I think I already knew how business decisions work, turns out I just wanted rant about that thing.

Feeling discouraged learning JavaScript Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:35 AM PDT Disclosure not sure if this is the right place, just didn't know where to turn to, seemed appropriate. Anyways, I've been trying to learn JavaScript for the better part of 2.5 weeks now (7-8 hours a day), and every time I think I get it, and try to review earlier "easier" knowledge I realize I keep forgetting the smallest things and I end up staring at a problem that should've been solved so easily. Is this normal as a learning curve, or should I maybe take a step back, try something else? [link] [comments] |
Use of input() and find() together in one programm. Posted: 03 Jul 2020 12:23 AM PDT Write a program that asks console input and searches for a query. With my basic programming knowledge, I am struggling to write this program, I have no clue where to start. I need help. Thanks all... [link] [comments] |
Combining two HTML pages in VBScript Posted: 02 Jul 2020 11:47 PM PDT Hi all. I'm a bit of an HTML noob so not sure the best way to go about achieving the following. I have an HTML file that acts as a "template". This file has a bunch of tabs and buttons etc that are multipurpose. On this "template" is a DIV of a particular size. I plan to load content of different HTML files within the DIV. These files are different "content" files. In these files there is a PAGE tag, the inner HTML of which I would like to dump into the DIV of the "template". I want to be able to navigate to a "content" page (i.e. using the filename of the content page because it is unique and the filename of the current page is displayed on the application I am using, so I want it to reflect what's on the screen), have the "template" load all it's objects and scripting etc. and then include the inner HTML of the "content" in the DIV in the "template". I am using VBScript to code this. I'm not worried about compatibility between browsers or anything, I'm just looking for the simplest solution that uses native functionality. I really apologise to any HTML experts if what I've said doesn't make sense or is disjointed, I haven't had a chance to do much research online about terminology etc. PS. I may also need to include some scripting from the "content" page in the final result (combine with scripting in "template"). Is there a standard method for this? [link] [comments] |

Looking for a mentor(transitioning to Java dev) Posted: 02 Jul 2020 11:34 PM PDT Hey guys. I'm a Frontend software engineer trying to transition to full-stack. I've decided to learn Java to really work on my OOP skills. I don't have problems with the language per se, but I can feel that my code is pretty smelly. I'd love to meet a good mentor and I promise that I will not take much of your time - just code reviews with questions about conventions and better practises. And if you need any help with some frontend stuff, I'd be more than happy to offer my advice. So, if you are somebody willing to exercise your code reviewing skills or just willing to help, please write to me here or in DM. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
