| I'm deleting my account, here is a list of resources I've saved Posted: 12 Oct 2020 01:45 AM PDT Before deleting, I was going through my saved posts and figured I could make a mass list for all of the programming resource posts I've saved. Great, another resource post. Anyway, here you go:
Don't forget to check out the FAQ which has a lot of resources as well. Thank you to the users that created these posts. I hope these helped you as much as they've helped me. I will keep this thread up for a week or two before deleting my account so you can save whatever you may want from this list.

| Tutorial: 5 Ways to Undo Changes in Git Posted: 12 Oct 2020 03:26 PM PDT A short tutorial I wrote over the weekend about some of the most common ways to undo changes in git: https://www.aleksandrhovhannisyan.com/blog/dev/undoing-changes-in-git/ It's a hands-on guide with plenty of code samples, so if you want, you can create a little git sandbox for yourself and follow along to understand what's going on. Commands covered:

| Why Pascal was never 'big' in US? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 11:38 PM PDT I am re-learning Pascal, using FPC and Lazarus, and I am enjoying a lot. The concept of write once, execute everywhere is very appealing. However, reading about the good old days of Borland, I noticed that Pascal and later Delphi, were never a 'big hit' in the US; differently from South America and Europe. Any thoughts on that?

| Where do I even start on my project? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 05:08 PM PDT I'm looking to build a website that takes user preferences (style, colors, size, etc.) that they select, uses those preferences to find products that fit them, and suggests products to them. With each selection I would like new products to be suggested to be a better match with their preferences and the previous products selected, while also fitting under a total budget. These products would be sourced from various stores such as Target, Walmart, Etc. and would allow the user to purchase all the products through my website and then uses the user's shipping and billing information to purchase these products automatically. Where would you suggest I start on this project? Also would you recommend using Python? Thanks for any input [link] [comments]  |

| Anyone have an idea how to emulate virtual displays? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 09:54 PM PDT On windows you used to be able to add displays even if you didn't have a real display connected. From there you could screen share and get like a virtual second screen. On linux it looks like there are some tools to create virtual display buffers that you can render to that serves the same purpose, but not so on windows. I know that it might be quite tough and that it might require writing a display driver, but is there anything that I can look into? I have written a display driver for super simple embedded systems before, but I imagine it would be really difficult on a standard computer. I'm willing to take months working on this, but I'm struggling to find any resources to help me make progress. Any tips? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Oct 2020 08:19 PM PDT I was thinking about Python bytecode and realized that it would be much harder to print a traceback / stack trace like Python does if you were creating a compiled language, since the source code might not be available anymore while executing the compiled binary. I get that that's why compiled languages try to throw errors in the build process, but since that may not always be possible, I was wondering what tools Rust and/or Go give you in the vein of diagnosing errors that occur after compilation has taken place. Thanks for reading what I hope is not too vague a question. I'm always impressed with the tooling of these languages, so I am hoping to learn more about them. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Oct 2020 09:08 PM PDT Right now I'm in a Java college course and we just had our first timed exam. I feel like I did pretty poorly not because I don't understand the code, but am a slow coder in general IE Each assignment I'll read over the code, documentation and instructions quite a few times before writing any code. Once I understand that I'll put in pseudocode on how to structure it and what I want to do, then I'll write code. The test itself didn't ask anything I didn't know or hadn't done yet in assignments, but the uniqueness of the questions are what threw me off. I'm thinking websites like HackerRank and CodeWars will help get used to coding quicker or akin to the speed of competitive programmers. [link] [comments]  |
| Success Stories without I.T Background? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 10:55 PM PDT Hey All, I'm currently trying to make a career change, Have been selling T.Vs for the last 20 years and it was time for a change, I picked up RoR and have been learning it for the last few months but every time I try and find some inspiration or what people in my shoes end up doing it normally starts with "I quit my job, Learned X language and started a business in X Months" - Sounds great but I find a lot of these people generally come from a long career in I.T or programming but in a different language, I'd love to find some success stories of people that have come from different backgrounds and have had success in learning to code (preferably in the entrepreneurial space but anyone who has gotten good jobs in the space is great too) [link] [comments]  |
| I want to get started with programming/coding and boy is it confusing... Posted: 12 Oct 2020 09:35 PM PDT Read the FAQs and it was helpful but the questions I have might make me sound like the dumbest person to heading down the programming path. Reading constantly on thing sub has got me confused about a bunch of things. like, if I learn web developing, would this knowledge be transmittable into the software industry and vise versa because I am not sure whether I want to build websites or software beside just wanting to learn to code. how do I get started? should I just get the fundamentals cemented down with CS50 and the likes? are those fundamental applicable to both Webdev and software Dev and it's sum Webapp?

| Currently I'm new to Coding are there any people here that can help mentor my progress? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 02:44 PM PDT I'm new to coding and I have ideas but I don't know how to get to the end result. Another one of my hobbies is music production so I would like to add coding to my list of skills as a music producer. Currently I'm learning Python with Visual Studio and I learn how to do hello world easy to only have it stop there. Where should I go or What can I do to get to the end result of an Idea if that makes sense? [link] [comments]  |

| Can someone help explain mocking async functions with test-driven development? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 08:09 PM PDT Hello, I am currently learning about/transitioning to using test driven development at my work. We develop web apps with React/Firebase. Im currently using Jest and Enzyme to write unit tests. So I want to be able to test asny functions like uploading to a database, to storage, authentication, etc., essentially all the great things Firebase provides. But can someone explain why Im supposed to mock functions to achieve this? I understand mocking as a basic concept, but for example I want to upload a user to a database. Well, I of course would like to test whether I can connect to Firestore and indeed upload the user correctly. But if I mock the function then I have not actually tested whether or not that happened correctly, no? If my app is a simple user form where they enter personal info and submit, I have not exactly tested that functionality if I "mock" it, right? I hope my conundrum and confusion makes sense. Truthfully I have not found a satisfactory answer so far, and would really appreciate some help in this regard, thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| How to create an event in developer tools F12 (firefox) Posted: 12 Oct 2020 11:30 PM PDT Can you guys please tell me how can I create an event in a code. I attach a screenshot to see. Is there any addon I need to install or some setting? Please help me out I can't find anything online related to this. Thank you so much. [link] [comments]  |
| Professor has output formatted two different ways? C# Posted: 12 Oct 2020 11:25 PM PDT Hi! I am making a program that basically is the square root method. You enter a number, it tells you the quare root of it. I'm having no issues with anything but the output. So, my professor shows the output like the following here. How can I make the output for this program formatted differently? If I use ToString("n4") it will give me the exact amount for the formatting of the .0000001 result, but the 10 result will be significantly cut off. If I just use ToString() and dont format it at all, the result of .0000001 is like .0000 and the 10 is correct. What should I be doing that I'm not getting from this? Thanks for any help!

| Building a price tracker but hitting a road block :( Posted: 12 Oct 2020 11:00 PM PDT hello guys, i was trying to create a price tracker in python. i had in mind to use the following websites to check the price for an item: amazon, bestbuy, target. the issue i am having tho is accessing the data for bestbuy. i was planning on doing an api call however their api is restricted. i could possibly web scrape instead but ive heard that to be quite unreliable. how can i possibly get around this road block? is it even possible without access to the api?

| Posted: 12 Oct 2020 10:54 PM PDT Hi, how I as an user can find if am being served data from cached responses or my request actually went to the backend. I know about a way that is by looking at header, if you find headers like X-Forwarded-For or ETag then probably it's using cache but this is not always the case sometimes I know for sure that a page is cache but still there are no headers like this. Is there way which can help to find everytime or do you know about any other method to find if user is being served cached response or not. [link] [comments]  |
| GitHub Repo for Data Structures and Algorithms Using Python Posted: 12 Oct 2020 10:50 PM PDT Hello, everyone! I started to learn data structures and algorithms yesterday and created a GitHub Repository which will track my progress and store all the tools and resources I have used or will be using in the future. Yes, I am going to learn and practice each data structure separately and make projects using them. I will be using this website as a base for learning DSA. I hope I get support from all of you and contribute as much as possible. Please help me make this a good repo for learning DSA. [link] [comments]  |
| Helpful thoughts on staying motivated to keep programming (and eventually land a job too) Posted: 12 Oct 2020 10:43 PM PDT Hey guys, as I've considered my own programming journey I've realized there are at least two keys to staying motivated to program. On one hand I think you have to learn the fundamentals. Whether its online courses, tutorials, in-person classroom sessions (eh, maybe not during covid tho), or virtual meetups, you have to learn the fundamental programming principles. However, past the fundamentals, you have to start learning stuff and getting familiar with the domain that interests you. This will keep you engaged and motivated, but will also help you land a job. When I was learning how to program I was excited to pick up variables, functions, and for loops via codecademy and coursera. But eventually I learned what I needed to, but really had no idea where to go next. I wasn't nearly as intrigued by intermediate or expert level courses (maybe I should have been?). Rather, I wanted to immediately apply what I was learning on the online courses. However, I didn't really know what domain to apply the coding fundamentals to. A few years ago I attended my first coding meetup. After the first fifteen minutes of introductions, the facilitator told everyone to break out in interest groups, as if everyone knew what they were interested in. Everyone, but me had a premeditated topic they wanted to work on. I sat by myself sulking and feeling bad for myself. But then the instructor walked over to me and asked, "what do you want to work on". I honestly didn't know. The instructor took me through a few cool applications. One of the applications was a web scraper. Something lit inside me that I couldn't explain and I felt a genuine sense of interest. I spent the next six months working on web scrapers, trying to apply every programming fundamental I knew to simple web scraper projects. I ended up making a simple nasdaq web scraper. Four months later, I used that web scraper for an interview talking point and landed the job a month later. I think if you want to discover the right resources to help you land a job, you should understand the type of role and domain you want to work in. The only way to understand the type of role and domain you want to work in is by, in short, exploring what's out there. Pay close attention to your gut and how you react to certain applications, projects, and tutorials. Anyway, hopefully these are helpful thoughts. I know there are so many resources out there and, honestly, the sheer number of resources can get overwhelming. I've come to realized it's not so much "which" resource I'll use, but how I'll use that resource to get to where I want to be. Let me know if you guys have any questions about learning to program and landing a job and would love to help out in any way I can! [link] [comments]  |
| Software Engineering Bootcamp vs. CS Degree Posted: 12 Oct 2020 06:15 PM PDT I'm going into a software engineering bootcamp this month and have been thinking a lot about how difficult my job search and how my salary will be affected without a CS degree. I have an associates in a non-related field and did a year or so at a 4 year school. Some of the comments on here have made me feel like even after all of this I will still be at a huge disadvantage to those who do have CS degrees (I understand why this might be in some cases but most comments make it seem like Bootcamp grads are undeserving of most jobs and that will be the experience). Just hoping for a bit of insight and if finishing college is something I should consider in the future or if there are other reputable options to learn CS skills. TIA! [link] [comments]  |
