| Posted: 10 Jul 2020 11:44 AM PDT So I'm a freshly-minted member of the 3-0 club, and getting to the point where I'm starting to feel a little disillusioned with my career path. I graduated with a Geography and Forestry degree but my career is completely unrelated. I've been financial risk management for the past 5 years or so and have a decent-paying job at a large company. I am, however, pretty bored of finance and don't really see myself doing this for much longer. I'm not particularly interested in the advancement and education path it requires. Programming is something that's always been of interest to me, and I feel like it's a path that will continue to grow in the future, and will let me continue learning and adapting to it. Problem is that I have absolutely zero experience coding/languages and no education whatsoever. I'm willing to learn and put time in however. My job is fairly stress-free and I have a lot of time once I clock out at 5 pm. So I have a few questions related to breaking into the programming field:
I guess ultimately my main goal is to get that foot in the door and land the entry level job that'll let me make some money and learn at the same time for bigger things. Is this possible without a degree? And if so, where do I start? [link] [comments]  |
| How do programmers protect their ideas when trying to launch a startup? Posted: 10 Jul 2020 09:51 PM PDT If you decide to share your idea and collaborate with others is there really anyway to protect your ownership of the idea or is it basically a matter of making sure you select trustworthy people to work with? If you had a solid idea would you attempt to build it entirely on your own (assuming it wasn't something monumental)? If not, what steps would you take to protect yourself from others that might want to runaway with your idea? [link] [comments]  |
| front end portfolio review - self-taught Posted: 10 Jul 2020 08:09 AM PDT Hi all, I'm a self taught front end developer and I've been looking for a job for a few months now and have received absolutely no responses back to the hundreds of applications I've sent. I've read about people who get hired with just a javascript calculator and I have an entire e-commerce site on my portfolio that uses Redux for state management and features like local storage, yet I don't get even a phone interview with HR. I even got rejected from a referral my senior software engineer friend put in for me.. for a position that was labeled entry level an only had CSS HTML and JS as requirements. I'm thinking there must be some unforgivable error in my portfolio, so here it is. I quit my job and used my savings of years to focus solely on learning front end for 6 months. Now that my learning period is over I find myself in a more desperate need for a job than originally anticipated with the current situation happening. Any help and feedback is greatly appreciated.

| How much Algorithms & Data Structures knowledge does a junior web dev need? Posted: 10 Jul 2020 03:56 PM PDT Devs in training like me don't know what employer's expect from them. If you were an (non-FAANG) employer hiring entry-level web developers, what kind of Algorithms and Data Structure knowledge would you expect them to know? What would it look like? For example, I built a Github repo with implementations for the top 50 algorithms and data structures (assuming that I do it right, with notes, comments and explanations), would that make you likely to call me in for an interview? If not, please define what you consider to be basic, good enough, and impressive levels of A&DS knowledge in concrete terms. Thanks [link] [comments]  |

| Help Starting First Major Project? Posted: 10 Jul 2020 12:24 PM PDT Hello, Reddit I've been learning programming for about 9 months or so, and I've made too many tutorial type projects with codecademy/youtube/udemy. I've combined a couple of the projects and made a slightly more interesting application but nothing substantial. I'm trying to decide which project from my ideas would be the most feasible for a beginner, and at the same time which would be the most effective for advancing skills/learning. Ideally, I'm trying to build projects that would be more meaningful and "impressive" to have on a resume. Also im wondering if it's true that building harder projects teaches you more than following more tutorials and doing codin challenges? so my question is, which of these projects seems like the best for a person in my situation:
I know some of these might take a while to accomplish, but due to the ... you know .. state of the world, I have an abundance of time lol. Thanks for any help in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jul 2020 11:25 AM PDT I know java pretty well. But would like to build my first web application. But have no idea which guide or which architecture I need to know or learn to build these kinds of services/applications (for later down the road when I advance). Not saying I'm going to build them as my first project ha ha. But it's the long term goal. Thank you. [link] [comments]  |
| In docker, how can I run a shell command before the entrypoint, every time a container starts? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 12:49 AM PDT I'm a bit confused about how to do something in docker:

| How do I put Python Code inside a C program? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 12:44 AM PDT I am trying to write C program based on Win 32 API that can do some web scraping. I heard libcurl could help in the job but even after spending 12 hours, I failed to install it properly (I am using VS 19 ). Now I am thinking of writing a webscraping program in Python and using Beautiful Soup and putting it inside the C code. Is it feasible? If yes, how can I do it? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 10 Jul 2020 10:43 PM PDT Hi everyone! I am a CS major going into my sophomore year and was wondering if anyone would like to mentor me or help guide me through my coding journey! Right now I am trying to build a project in c++ but I am so lost and have no idea how to proceed. One of the tips I keep hearing is to have someone experienced to give you advice and guide you so here I am putting myself out there for anyone willing to take a chance on me! I will work as hard as I can and have a growth mindset so please if anyone has some free time during this quarantine I would appreciate a mentor to help me navigate the programming world. Right now I only know a little bit of C++ but I have never built an actual project or worked with an API. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| Just a little motivational post for new developers out there. Posted: 10 Jul 2020 01:59 PM PDT Mobile formatting warning Hey guys! So last year around August I decided to teach myself how to program. I started with python but quickly moved over to web dev(HTML,CSS, & JS). Over time I built an array of personal projects as well as my portfolio website. Before I continue I want to say I have no college degree and I also have a few misdemeanors on my record from when I was a little younger(25 now). I studied web development and the whole JavaScript ecosystem for almost a year before preparing my resume. Once I had a satisfactory resume I got a LinkedIn set up with some SEO keywords and was good to go. Within the course of a week I received multiple in-mail from recruiters. One from a local company looked extremely promising. So after 4 rounds of interviews and whiteboard challenges I received an offer. Mind you for where I live the offer was very generous. So after a little less than a year of grinding teaching myself how to program; I am now a Software Engineer at a fantastic company. I sent out a total of ZERO resumes. LinkedIn did all the work for me, which shows how important it is. I didn't make this post to brag or anything like that. I made it for people that may have been in my situation(no degree and possibly a criminal record). When I first started I didn't think I had a shot in the world of becoming a developer. I just kept grinding and hoped for the best. If you have any questions just leave a comment and I will answer em! Keep grinding! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jul 2020 10:41 PM PDT Hi there! I'm a student who is learning React through a Udemy course. In my course, the instructor spends a lot of time going over Firebase (like 10% of the whole class). Whenever I look at job listings I never see Firebase listed as a preferred skill. Even web articles on Firebase are all ~3 years old. I plan on learning the full MERN stack, so is Firebase worth spending the time to learn? [link] [comments]  |
