| What have you been working on recently? [August 07, 2021] Posted: 06 Aug 2021 09:00 PM PDT What have you been working on recently? Feel free to share updates on projects you're working on, brag about any major milestones you've hit, grouse about a challenge you've ran into recently... Any sort of "progress report" is fair game! A few requests:

| Posted: 06 Aug 2021 07:56 AM PDT Hi everyone, As a follow-up to the free full stack mini-course, How to Plan and Build a Project - Building It, I created a free Java Crash Course on YouTube with supporting written instruction so you can program along with the videos. These lessons are geared to take beginners from little or no knowledge of Java to the final exercise where we build a full stack single-page web application front and backend, using Java, HTML and JavaScript, that can send, receive, and respond to RESTful requests. The programming fundamentals you will learn in this course will translate to other languages such as JavaScript or Python because the fundamentals are very similar across programming languages, it is the syntax or language specific implementation that varies. There are 16 videos in this course that total more than 5 hours of video. Each video is accompanied by lesson instructions you can follow along with while you program along with the video. Throughout the lessons there are 8 exercises that grow in complexity to test your knowledge of Java programming as your knowledge grows. For the most part, I teach what I use the most as a software engineer so you won't waste time and effort learning things you will rarely use. The 80/20 rule states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes. To me, it seems that 20% of a programming language is used 80% of the time. So I teach the 20% of the language that we use most to maximize our effort. In the first lesson, you will learn how to set up a Java development environment with Java 11 and Visual Studio Code. Then we will go through the Java language basics and programming fundamentals. By the end of these lessons and exercises, you will have learned the basic building blocks of the Java language and you can begin applying your knowledge to build Java applications and Java backends. The plan is to continue to build more courses to fill out a full stack web development curriculum that will teach you front-end, backend, database, and cloud development from beginner, through intermediate and advanced lessons and courses, covering process as much as programming, free on the FullStackCloudDeveloper YouTube channel and on the fullstackcloudeveloper.com website. The next course will focus on front-end development covering HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I will be adding more exercises to this Java course to support the backend needs of the front-end course. Please leave comments here if you have any full stack project suggestions you would like to see for the new exercises. Here is the link to the Java Crash Course playlist. Here is the link to the Java Crash Course lesson plan and lessons. Here is the course content: Contents

| Switched to a different mind-set, and for people like me? I could definitely recommend it, Posted: 06 Aug 2021 01:14 PM PDT Okay so I might have a small tip for anyone learning programming, or at least people who try to learn stuff in a similar way. I am a bit of a control freak, maybe in a bit of a weird way. I'm going through the Odin Project for example. But I want to completely do it. Not skip a single thing. But sometimes I'm confused by an exercise or something, and then I let it block my progress for really long. I just stop almost. Just now?? I decided I wanted to do things a little differently. I wanted to have some more fun and go with my intuition. I have an intent to make a personal website. But haven't done anything special with it for a really long time already. And today I decided I want to give it a week of attention maybe to just upgrade it. Or try to. And I've got an e-book that I thought could be interesting for it. And just now??? I started skimming through the book and learning less strictly. And almost immediately I can already tell the difference. This is a lot more fun! Usually I would worry so much about missing a single line of text, or rereading many many times lines that I don't think I understand 100% completely. And while that all might seem good, it really obstructs my learning... For example, before? I would try really hard to get all context available when learning from a resource. I wanted to know everything, especially not missing anything that could remotely aid my understanding. I don't know. It's a suggestion for people like me, try to be a little more... spontanious is what I would call it now. Just go with whatever you feel like doing instead of being so... you could call it concentrated or dedicated, but not in a good way. My personally learned lesson just now! Good luck!

| Good Project to put on resume? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 09:33 PM PDT Im in college studying computer science and I wanna make some personal projects to put on my resume. Im interested in AI/ML and I was thinking of making a machine learning snake game. Would this be a good projects on a resume? If not what should I do? [link] [comments]  |
| Is it good to learn 3 different subjects in one day? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 09:09 AM PDT I am learning to code( Python), math and I learn to play my guitar. I wake up at 8 am, exercise until 9:30 am, I code from 10 am until 12 am, from 1 to 5 pm I do math, from 5 to 8 pm I learn to play my guitar and 8 to 10 pm I read some books and then I go to bed. I just have a feeling that I should not do those 3 things in one day. [link] [comments]  |
| Where to learn python for free if I'm NOT a beginner. Posted: 06 Aug 2021 01:39 PM PDT So recently I've been wanting to learn Python. I tried a couple of apps of YT videos but everything is orientated to beginners. Does anyone know where I can learn Python for free without having to go through the basics of OOP and what programming is, ect? [link] [comments]  |
| Improving my understanding of SQLite & Db management Posted: 06 Aug 2021 10:06 PM PDT In mobile development we have to work with SQLite. I haven't got a deep understanding of database (I have no background knowledge of database / SQL. I've learned from scratch). I am familiar with basic concepts: - JOIN (all) - GROUP - ORDER - MAX() COUNT() etc... - Some methods like substr() etc... I use these things everyday. But I would like to go a little bit further : Improving my understanding of database management. Improving the efficiency of my requests Beeing able to deal with Sub Requests Getting the best of Sqlite. So, If you have some resources (books, blogs, videos) let me know. [link] [comments]  |
| How to pull hour and minute value from a zoneOffset? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 10:02 PM PDT I have : ZoneOffset offset = DateTime.getOffset(); where offset would hold the values like "08:00". But it seems that this doesn't exist, and the only thing I can find is ".getHoursField()" from the Java docs page, which has little to no other documentation and doesn't even seem like it's actually available to use ( I just get an error when trying to use this method).

| What exactly is “Automate the Boring Stuff With Python”? Is it worth doing? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 03:50 PM PDT A quick Google search just comes up with a book? Is it a book I have to buy and follow? What kind of tasks are in it? Is it worth doing some of these alongside learning some basic PyGame stuff? (I'm also interested in spending a small amount of time on PyGame to start playing around and expanding my Python skills/OOP understanding and my code portfolio on Github) [link] [comments]  |
| How to stop thinking about work-related projects Posted: 06 Aug 2021 08:48 PM PDT I'm not sure if this should be posted in a more careers-oriented sub. But today at work I got a project working. but just two hours ago, I realized that my code was sloppy after coincidentally watching a YouTube video on the same topic. Ive come up with ideas to refactor it that will definitely make it better, which i guess is good? The problem is I don't know how to leave work at work. I don't know if it's my tendency to hyper focus, but I can foresee this leading to burnout. Is it ok what I did tonight? If not, what are some strategies to avoid this? [link] [comments]  |
| How can I display a variable from a JS file with my HTML file? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 08:02 PM PDT If I have a variable in a JS file, let's say const title = 'Welcome to my page.' And I want to do <h1> title </h1>, how do I do it? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Why is inner div spilling outside of container? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 11:32 PM PDT I started to make this with mobile first portrait mode in mind. When I rotate it to landscape mode in the dev tools iphone option the game board falls apart. My main container element seems fine but the inner game board div is spilling outside of it to the right and I can't figure out why. [link] [comments]  |
| Tips for what some may call "Burnout"? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 12:52 PM PDT i am an intermediate level programmer who loves to program just to stay busy. I have a near endless supply of programming ideas and spend a good portion of my free time coding, just because i like the brain exercise. however i have noticed i can struggle a lot with what I call "headthrob" but i suppose it may be more akin to burnout (i hesitate to directly call it burnout tho because i always Want to keep programming but i struggle). what i mean by it is, i may be getting a lot of work done and feel very productive but then past some point, ususlly after a lot of very heavy cognative load (ie, reading through a new library, deciding some things about my code that have a very large effect so i have to think through how it could effect every little thing) i start to get kind of a headache in the front of my head and i find basically once i reach that point i suddenly completely break down. tbh its kinda weird cause basically the only task i ever do thats mentally demanding enough to get me there is programming, but i can actually physically Feel my brain struggle and almost short circuit as i think through problems. sometimes even scrolling through my code without reading i can actually feel my head throb more just scanning it ambiently. is this a common thing that others experience? tbh i have rarely had the pleasure to work with other programmers, and am 99% self taught so i dont really know whats normal. if you Do experience it does anyone have any solutions to it besides just giving up for the day? are there things i should try that help? i either give up for the day when i reach that point or i just try to power through but i normally dont get much done when i do. i just dont like the dissonance between my ambition and my ability, especially when i recognize that i Normally am much more efficient then i am in those times. i would like to Not just give up for the day when that happens [link] [comments]  |
| New to R and confused as to why my code isn’t working Posted: 06 Aug 2021 11:13 PM PDT This code is from my lecturer herself and it's not working. I don't think she even knows what's going on in R. Please could someone explain what the code is trying to do and why it's not working. I have a bit of experience with Python if it helps. So I set working directory and downloaded the txt file in there correctly I believe. Then the code: xy = read.table("document name", header = TRUE) attach(xy) names(xy) plot(x,y) And it's supposed to result in a scatter plot but it says: error in plot(x,y) : object x not found [link] [comments]  |
| About to take a course in C for the second time - anybody have a good refresher for me? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 01:42 PM PDT What the title says. I'm super nervous because this is the only class I have had to drop ever…. Now I'm taking it again along with psych 2. Please help lol [link] [comments]  |
| Need help with my first JavaScript project. Posted: 06 Aug 2021 10:09 PM PDT https://codepen.io/False_1566/pen/ZEKqNJY I'm new to JavaScript. Been learning it now for about three weeks and this is first project. I can't seem to get the trash button to work properly. If there are multiple tasks on the list only the top trash button works and it deletes all the tasks below it. I want the trash button to only delete the selected task. Any help would be appreciated.

| Posted: 06 Aug 2021 10:07 PM PDT How would you two match users in a chat app using socket io in flask and react ? I'm trying to build a feature where I can match two users based on a selected criteria. For example, I want to chat with people located in New York and the app will match this user to another user who's looking to chat with someone in New York as well. How do I implement such feature with the above technologies ? [link] [comments]  |
| Is it normal to feel this way? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 06:01 PM PDT So my project that I'm currently working on required me to implement a custom user model and the tutorial that I followed explained pretty much how to go about doing that but it didn't really explain exactly how the code works. I've been teaching myself for 8 months and feel very comfortable but this user model is more advanced than I'd like to admit. Ive held off working on the next part of my project because I feel like I'm cheating because shouldn't I know exactly how it works? I feel comfortable with OOP and understand how metaclasses work and I've never copied anyone else's code before in any of my projects before but I just feel so overwhelmed with all the backend that goes into creating this custom user model and not many resources explain exactly how it works. Is this normal and should I just move on to the next part of my project? [link] [comments]  |
| What topics should self taught developers spend more time on other than programming and DSA Posted: 06 Aug 2021 02:58 PM PDT It's pretty well established that if you want to break into the industry as a self taught dev you need to learn about programming languages (duh) and dsa. But is there any other areas that you think self taught devs should learn about? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Aug 2021 08:43 PM PDT I have made a working native Win32 splitter (got a little help from another Redditor). The problem I have having is that when I go up and down there is a lot of flickering put the window still move as intended. The major problem though is when I try to resize the window to make it bigger. When I go to resize nothing stays in it's original position everything moves. Can someone take a look at my code please? If you are compiling with visual studio make sure to add these to the linker "Comctl32.lib, UxTheme.lib" [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Aug 2021 04:28 PM PDT What are some things that I should start doing? I am interested in learning a wide variety of things while getting ready for my next semester. I am willing to dive into a whole bunch of different types of projects to learn. I used the Starting out with Python Fourth Edition by Tony Gaddis, read it cover to cover. My class average was 99.87%, if any of that matters. I really want some ideas to jump into. [link] [comments]  |
| How does task manager report CPU usage? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 02:04 PM PDT I tried asking this before while I was drunk and it didn't go over well lol. For instance, if I have one program listed at 100% CPU usage in task manager, that's confusing to me since it seems like it obviously must not be true (I.e. other processes are clearly running). Is it somehow high jacking the windows scheduling policy? Is it some way of counting the way threads are being used? [link] [comments]  |
| Any websites/programs to make fast prototipes of websites? Posted: 06 Aug 2021 07:54 PM PDT Is there any program or website to make fast prototipes of websites? To have a mental image before translating it to html [link] [comments]  |
