Posted: 14 Apr 2021 11:03 AM PDT Coding isn't about memorizing syntax or always chasing the hottest technologies. Focus on the basic instead: - Learn Fundamental concepts. - Get good at problem solving. - Use your skills to create value & help other people JUST START! [link] [comments] |
Question about the legality of my portfolio project Posted: 14 Apr 2021 10:15 PM PDT Hi reddit longtime lurker here, but I decided to post about one of my portfolio projects after a discussion with my wife. This post might be kind of lengthy, so I will try my best to format it appropriately. <-------------Skip to the end to see my question.---------------> TL;DR - I want to attach music pdfs to my band's website so that members can download their music for rehearsal/gigs. This sheet music is protected by copyright law, and I suspect that I am not legally allowed to distribute some or all of these works through my site digitally. Will potential employers care about this feature if I use this on my dev portfolio for job applications? I am currently a middle school band director and am slowly learning to code. I run a jazz big band on the side, and we usually have a gig once a week or so. Our folder of music includes about 500 jazz tunes that we have purchased with band funds throughout the years. I have to create a new setlist of about 30 tunes for every gig. The setlist needs a mixed variety of tunes with different genres. An example might look like this.
Going through the whole music folder, finding the correct tunes, and making this setlist by hand usually would take me about 1-2 hours of work. After a few years of doing this, I felt that it was a significant waste of time and decided to automate it with Javascript, nodeJS, and mongoDB. So far it kind of works inside the terminal, and has significantly cut down the amount of time I spend creating the setlist for gigs! I created an array of objects. Each object is associated with a single tune and has a name, number, and genre. I randomly pick a tune, check for the correct genre, and place it in a new array at the end. <----------------SKIP TO HERE------------------> After I work out the kinks in the logic, I want to make it look pretty on the front end. I hope to eventually showcase it on my future portfolio for job applications. I would also like to add more features, but I suspect that some of them might break copyright laws in the US. To put it simply, I want my site to look and act like IMDB but for our tunes. I would like to add the following features:
I suspect that #3 is illegal and goes against copyright laws due to me distributing these copyrighted works without publisher permission. I'm definitely going to create this feature for my personal use, but should I maybe make a portfolio version that doesn't have this feature? Will potential employers look negatively on me if they see this feature? Will they even know the ins/outs of music copyright law? [link] [comments] |
I failed my technical interview Posted: 14 Apr 2021 12:36 PM PDT So I failed my technical interview for a frontend position. I had to do a todo list in pure JavaScript, where I had an array of objects and I had to make functions that add new elements in the array, modify an element, delete an element and filter the array. I was super nervous, I never worked with some methods of array (ex: indexOf), they helped me and gave me hints. After that I had theory questions, I answered for mostly questions and at the end they said that I look motivated. The interview was 2h length. But today I got the call from hr and she told me that I'm rejected. Im really sad and I feel dumm. [link] [comments] |
Is traditional school certificates still worth it? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 07:20 PM PDT Hey guys, ive started taking online courses a while back and have really been enjoying the accessibility and the ability to commit to the subject on my schedule. Lately, I have been considering enrolling to school for a certificate -> batchlors. So I'm curious what people in the field value more, traditional certification or online certification work as well?

What’s a tip/trick to remember all the comparison methods etc in Java? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 08:10 PM PDT Like, =, ==, instanceof, valueof, compareto, so on and so forth. [link] [comments] |
What's the best time to buy Udemy Courses? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 10:09 PM PDT I'm planning on purchasing Udemy courses for JS and React to complete over the summer. Currently the course are discounted at only $18, the price just yesterday was $140. Are these drastic price drops common? Would it be wise to purchase the courses now or wait? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 14 Apr 2021 10:05 PM PDT So in the past when I used the code-runner extension in VSCode I just pressed the play button and the python code would run. Now it seems that every time I use the code runner extension, I am given two options, I don't want to have to select an option every time. I just want to run the code: Here is what I am talking about: https://imgur.com/9iJsh34 Both options work fine, I just prefer to have the output in the output window and not the terminal. Any suggestions? I can delete the code-runner extension, but I am stuck with the output being send to the terminal and not the output window. [link] [comments] |
How to route a new domain name to a subdomain? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 09:45 PM PDT So I have Heroku as my hosting platform and cloudflare as DNS management. If I have user.example.com and I want a new domain hello.com to display page user.example.com, how would I do this? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 14 Apr 2021 08:26 PM PDT I am 4 weeks into the harvard CS50 certificate program for web development (obviously long way to go). Any suggestions on what courses/bootcamps to take next? I am hoping to get an entry level position programming by sometime early next year. All advice welcome!! [link] [comments] |
Starting to resent the word "Senior" lmao Posted: 14 Apr 2021 03:20 PM PDT I feel like I'm 50% joking and 50% serious. Every job posting has the word "Senior" in it, it's kinda pissing me off a bit lmao. Company: "We're hiring like crazy come join us" Me : " yaaaaaaay 🥳" proceed to careers page Senior fullstack... Senior soft.... Senior data.... Senior Pokemo.. Senior .. Arghhhh I'm at point now that, whenever I see the word somewhere else in a completely different context, I start getting somewhat pissed again for no reason at all 😂😂 I understand people/companies know what they're looking for and the word doesn't mean anything, because I still apply anyway and I know one day I'll get to that that word level but I'm just tired of seeing that word everywhere. Maybe I'm being a bit silly and I'm actually laughing as I'm typing this but yeah that's how I've been now feeling. [link] [comments] |
How do I give credit to my colleague for helping me with my task in my PR? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 08:11 PM PDT He guided me and shared some pseudo code. He did not directly contribute to any of my code. Is co-author the right way to go? [link] [comments] |
Thoughts on best ways to learn two programming languages at once? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 05:53 PM PDT For my job this summer, I'll be working in Python which I already have a fair bit of experience in, but I want to learn C or C++ this summer to prepare for my senior design project. I work with both Python and MATLAB right now (between jobs and class), and I'm not really learning anything new in either just using what I already know... have others gone through working in one while trying to pick up another language? If so, any advice? The only issue I really have between Python and MATLAB is remembering which uses 0 vs 1 indexing, but I'm just scared since I'll be learning everything new. [link] [comments] |
Node.js file structure / code organization best practices Posted: 14 Apr 2021 05:43 PM PDT I'm in the process of teaching myself web-dev, utilizing node.js and express for backend. I have a basic todo list app that I keep coming back to and adding new features to whenever I learn something new. The main app.js file is starting to become quite bloated and ugly, as I keep pouring all the logic for the new features into this single file. I know this is something that needs to be fixed, but I don't have the slightest idea on how my node.js apps should be structured. Any suggestions on how to proceed would be most welcome. Articles, videos, tutorials... anything, really. I've tried googling but I haven't figured out the best way to phrase my questions. Most articles just say "break things down into small chunks," but I'm curious as to what the industry standard / best practices for doing this is. Also, since I'm quite green still, examples on how to do this and link the separate files together would be great. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
A module like python- chess but for c++? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 11:35 PM PDT |
How does one elevate their programming skills beyond the basics? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 07:45 PM PDT For the past year I've been studying code and to my knowledge I feel like I'm pretty decent at it. I recently completed my first python intro course and did all the homework's with no problem. Almost little to no googling. I didn't even have to attend some classes because I already knew the topic. However, I am very stuck. And I don't want to continue into the tutorial hell, so I'm here asking how can I continue to expand? I'm interested in coding bots to begin with, and started a code along on YouTube, but I have to admit, this is my first time seeing async def in code. As well as client.event(). I'm also tryna code cyber security/hacking tools, but when I hope on github and look at code, I'm completely lost. Lost on all the imports, the "try" method. Json is also something that looks interest, but very lost when I look at it. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you [link] [comments] |

Posted: 14 Apr 2021 11:22 PM PDT A friend of mine said that I should try learning Java at some point, but to me, Java seems to be worst languages to write. I can read it a little bit, but I would not say at all I am proficient. I'm 16 right now and know Python, C++, and a decent amount of HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Would Java come in handy in the future if I really do pursue computer science or would some of the languages I know already be good enough? [link] [comments] |
Any low level jobs that would teach coding? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 07:26 PM PDT Hi, I am wondering if there are any other paths to an entry level programming job other than gaining enough knowledge/experience through learning as much as possible about coding. For example, are there any support jobs that may offer the opportunity to learn on the job and later apply for a dedicated role as a programmer? I wouldn't mind working for a low salary if it meant that I was actively learning and working towards getting the job that i want. Just a thought, am interested to hear what people have to say about this. Thanks!! [link] [comments] |
Kind of a challenge ? I need your help !!! Posted: 14 Apr 2021 11:03 PM PDT Programmers of reddit, it would be great if you could do me this favor. I enrolled newly to driving school and they have a huge selection of driving teachers to choose from, but they don't tell the individual success quota (meaning out of ten how many students pass the driving test) What they do instead is, they post daily on the school's Instagram profile a picture of the passing student with their driving teacher and the school thanks the teacher in the caption. So I have this idea for a bot or a logarithm which would scan the website interface and note the teachers names in a separate file by searching for the world "thanks to" and noting what comes after, so that I could count them and kind of have a general idea of which to teacher to choose from. (I know that for a quota you need to know the number of students each teacher taught, but I am trying to do the most with what is available) If you could give me the final code it would be amazing, since I am really in a pinch. If not, you could save the day by suggesting a website or tutorial where I can learn the relevant things for such a project. (Note: I have never ever written a code, so the simpler the better.) Thanks in advance !! [link] [comments] |
Creating a decentralized social network Posted: 14 Apr 2021 10:50 PM PDT My friend and I are trying to create a small decentralized social network for our final project for one of our classes. The idea would be to make an app similar to twitter but make it completely decentralized. We've been looking into making it an etherum dapp which seems the most straightforward but is pretty pricey with gas fees. What would be the cheapest route to go in regards to having a blockchain as a backend for this app? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 14 Apr 2021 10:49 PM PDT Hello, I am quite a beginner but I am learning Python right now. I am reading the Python Crash Course book and it is so helpful for a beginner like me. I am planning on grinding everyday and getting even 0.0001% better. I am in the process of creating my personal portfolio website and I wanted to start working on side projects because I know that it is one of the best ways to really dive deep and learn efficiently. I just had a few questions. I apologize in advance if these are dumb questions LOL.
Thank you!! [link] [comments] |
How to study programming efficiently? Posted: 14 Apr 2021 11:26 AM PDT I'm trying to study python programming using a book called "Automate dull tasks with python" And I am reading the book 1 hour a day, but there is a problem ... I can't capture everything the book says, for example, one page it explains about a function, and on the other page, another function, and on the other, another function, and I try to separate the time to practice each one, but it is very difficult, or my brain makes it seem difficult, anyway, some of you have some technique to study programming, I use the pomodoro technique, but still, I can't capture and practice everything I understand.
