Classmates who have a headstart in their career in programming and I feel really behind Posted: 01 Jul 2020 05:46 PM PDT Excuse me if I go off a tangent and rant a bit here. Also, I wasn't sure if this post is relevant to programming so I'll leave it here. I am a senior at university studying Computer Engineering and most of my classmates have successfully launched their careers before they even started university. All these people have at least 7+ repos on their Githubs and cool stuff on there. AND whenever you have a conversation with them, its hard to understand because they would use terms that most people wouldn't know. They are so quick with their coding skills and probably have been practising for years too. Being in group projects or same courses is hard because they have much a higher understanding of concepts. I just don't get how they manage to make this routine and what I'm doing wrong. I know in some high schools they do give courses in basic programming languages but I didn't attend such a school and had no background when I entered. I am interested in programming and the tech-related world but I lack master skills. While I can safely say I have about 2 years of coding experience, I still feel like I'm lacking a lot. Plus, I wanted to raise my GPA so I couldn't focus on hobbies. This is just a rant now but yeah if anyone has related to this at some point, please give me some advice on how you managed to overcome this. Also please let me know what I should to grow out of this situation and also become more competent [link] [comments] |

Help! First job rewrite&update company website to quickbooks Posted: 01 Jul 2020 09:44 PM PDT Has anyone ever done this? I was working towards my comp sci associates when I fell into a deep dark place in my life for the past few years. I almost had it but now I just randomly applied to rewrite a companies website make it mobile and non static and got the job. I'm actually scared because I dont have any background in html classes or anything. Is this strange that I got the job? The boss doesn't know anything at all bout computers [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 05:47 PM PDT I'm new to python and programming and I'm trying to learn how to use curses, but I can't use it without an error appearing. I was sent this code: import curses screen = curses.initscr() time.sleep(3) to test if curses works, but when I plug it into PyCharm, I get this error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/[name]/PycharmProjects/[Project]/[File].py", line 2, in <module> import curses File "C:\Users\[name]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\lib\curses\__init__.py", line 13, in <module> from _curses import * ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_curses' Does anyone know what this problem is and how to fix it? Thanks. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 07:42 PM PDT I recently failed a driver test and I want to be able to make a new appointment as soon as possible, but it's currently not available do to a huge backlog of appointments that were cancelled due to COVID. Also if this isn't the right subreddit for this please link me somewhere else instead of just saying "wrong sub". [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 03:36 PM PDT To those who read this wall of text, I thank you in advance. I wanted to be as thorough as possible to paint the best picture of my situation. I'm 29 years old and started off working as a Respiratory Therapist about 6 years ago. Not having a ton of money, I pursued this through the CC route, which involved 2 years of general ED, then a 2 year RT program which gave me my AS in Respiratory Therapy, and allowed me to take my state and national certifications that allow me to work in hospitals today. For personal reasons, I decided about a couple years ago that while my work is suitable for the time being, I did not want to be doing this 10 years from now. I always thought website building was interesting, so I proceeded to finish "Basic Html and Html 5," "Basic CSS," and "Basic Javascript" on freecodecamp.org, just to get started and see where I wanted to go to from there. I have a good relationship with the management of the gym I attend, and happened to overhear their need to have someone "update the website" (which just included changing some styling, updating prices, and making the navigation a little more user friendly). I completed that job for them, and over the past year worked into became their "Programs Manager" where I oversee their customer database interactions, keep their website up to date, and a bunch of other non-tech things that I won't delve into (as I don't think it would be relevant). Recently, I've had the opportunity to watch a friend of mine who works as a Lead iOS App Developer develop an app from scratch, and while I don't understand the technical side of things, I've been helping him beta test, and trying to help from the User Experience side of things. Looking into UX jobs more, I think the idea of becoming a "UX Engineer" could be a great fit for me. I wouldn't say I'm the worst at design, but artistic ability has never been my strong suit, and my interest definitely lies in the technical side of things. However, I've also spent my entire professional career learning how to empathize with people and see things from their point of view, so maybe being a UX Engineer would be a good fit? However, looking into the specifics more, I don't really know how to begin going about this. Do I take a bootcamp for UI/UX, and then try to learn the technical side on my own? Vice versa? Should I just start working on OSSU Computer Science stuff? The self-taught path seems extremely daunting, at while I am motivated, I do that without some direction, I could lose steam and never make it to where I want to be (I do feel disheartened about just not knowing what is the next thing I should be doing). My initial thought process is that I could just take a web development bootcamp, and look for a job in web dev while I build experience and skills for my next job. If anyone has some advice or guidance for me, I would greatly appreciate it! [link] [comments] |
Need help with a timetabling problem Posted: 01 Jul 2020 12:07 PM PDT |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 09:18 AM PDT For example, if an email message uses non-standard line endings, an email server should not crash or reject the message but should correct the line endings and then send it along. I feel like this was a known rule and had a formal/informal name but unfortunately I can't seem to find a reference to it online anymore. This is not the same thing as data validation for a form which should reject outright bad data. But it might, for example, include the idea of accepting a phone number in any number of formats ( [link] [comments] |
How to generate a customer specific exe? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 05:48 PM PDT Hi group! I am in need of advice. I need to build a custom exe that has the customers id built into it.

Is there a good way to put that I have *some* experience with a language on my resume? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 08:51 AM PDT I did almost all of my course work in school using Java, but along the way I took a class or two using C, SQL, and HTML; and I could do a little bit with those or at least wouldn't be completely new to them if an employer needed me to know things about those but I'd be pretty bad if someone hired me on just to code in HTML. Is there a way to put that which is honest but still looks good? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 09:00 AM PDT While you could say that I should just read the course materials, due to the coronavirus we didn't have any in-person lectures (nor any online ones, for that matter) and the textual materials we were given just don't explain it well enough for me. If anyone has any experience with this particular problem, or something similar, or can just point me to where I can research enough to understand how to do it, I would appreciate it very much. Disclaimer: I am absolutely not asking anyone to do my homework, if someone thinks that's what this is about. I need to do it myself to understand it anyway, I'm just looking for some initial guidelines. [link] [comments] |
I need help coding with AutoHotKey? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 03:17 PM PDT Hello all. I'm trying to create a HotKey app that will automatically run a program for me. I've been poring over the docs but it's a bit complicated for me. My main issues: 1: I need the mouse to move to certain points on the screen in certain functions. How can I measure this? 2: There are 3 or 4 screens in the program that the app will need to navigate. What's the best way for the app to tell which screen it's on? To grab a colour of a button so it will know "Okay, this is the loading screen" or something? 3: I've been trying to reverse engineer a similar app somebody posted, but it's pretty confusing. Also s/he missed a bracket so I'm not 100% sure what is encapsulated in what. [link] [comments] |
Any resources to improve rdbms skills? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 08:37 AM PDT I recently got a job as a BPM developer and I realized my db skills are lacking. I was wondering if there's any online classes or certification I can study for that focuses on BPM database. [link] [comments] |
What programming concepts I need to know to create this meal plan search web app? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 02:03 PM PDT Hi guys, I am trying to learn progressive web app development by doing a project based learning. I want to build an app that users can search for a specific ingredient or a meal (can of coke, piri piri chicken or a burger) once selected, the app will search through all the meal plans that contain that ingredient. I want to list meal plans as PDF files, unless there is better option for me to manage all this data. Just to let you know that I have been learning the basics of HTML, CSS and Javascript, but I feel like I could learn more by actually creating something. What are the exact concepts, languages or frameworks that I need to learn or anything else I need to know in order to develop this project? https://i.stack.imgur.com/E8LVq.jpg Thanks in advance for putting me in to the right direction.

Where do I start improving myself as a developer Posted: 01 Jul 2020 12:59 PM PDT Hey guys, I started as a graphic designer but wanted to be a game programmer. I started developing when I started games with very basic c# and worked my way towards building web apps with angular, ember and now working with react Js. Now I started with making building pos software with unity to building business applications with node,react and sql and calling myself as full stack developer with a tile as senior software developer. Tbh, I feel like a hack who's just cheating and being injustice to work. I've been working 15-16hrs per day for the past 2 years for learning and in a good position where software engineering who ask for advise to a guy who studied film studies. Now, I wanna be a software developer who is a master with making software I know it's far fetched but to reach this what would be a starting point. I've been implementing towards my code where I am not certain so many basic concepts names but I've been using them daily. With a week maths skills and visual thinking and a week understanding of OOP knowledge [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Jul 2020 12:58 PM PDT and how they differs from those on Unix. I'm quite knowledgeable about Unix but my experience programming on Windows is non existent for all practical purposes. I'm looking for a description of dynamic libraries on Windows. I know some random things which look strange to me like that an inline-function static variable can be duplicated between dll, that dll may include their own copy of the standard C++ library. But those pieces of information I collected during the years are unorganized and I'd like a good introduction to the subject to put them in a coherent system. [link] [comments] |
Anyone know of a good browser input logger? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 08:24 AM PDT I want to compile data of my activity using a browser. I would like to be able to see records with the keystroke, or click, and which element in the browser document I am clicking, and the timestamp. Does anyone know of a fairly easy way to do this? Maybe a pluging for a browser or an entire browser dedicated to this? [link] [comments] |
I made a (java) program, I have a doubt about it. Kindly check. Posted: 30 Jun 2020 11:15 PM PDT Java Program to Count Number of Digits in an Integer package com.company; public static void ok() { } The programme works fine but when I was studying about strings(positions and indexes)...I learnt that the position starts at 0. Whereas when I run this programme its position starts at 1. So, If I inter say a digit that is..."327" it will give output 3, not 2. [link] [comments] |
Why are dynamic typed languages so popular in web dev? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 11:02 AM PDT JavaScript, Ruby, Python, and PHP seem like the most common languages in web development. Why aren't static typed languages more common in this field? [link] [comments] |
Sort List based on Child Object Attributes in C# Posted: 01 Jul 2020 08:00 AM PDT I know there is some material online, but I cannot find an exact post with my issue and I am having trouble. I have a list of 'Employees', each Employee has a manager field of type Employee. Employee has a last name. I want to sort a list of employees based on the managers last name.
I have a list of employees with the manager, but I want to sort the parent list by the last name attribute of the child object manager in C#. Is there an easy way to do this? Edit: Solved it, I was over thinking it:

Trying to code a Twitter script with Python. How should I go about doing that? Posted: 01 Jul 2020 07:57 AM PDT Hey coders! I'm trying to code a script that allows me to scan the bio of twitter users for selected keywords and store the users usernames + bios that have positive matches onto an SQL database. How can I go about doing that? Never scripted before and I'm kind of a newb at py3 so any help would be appreciated :) [link] [comments] |
