You can also click this link or manually enter the code: SEP2021FREE https://www.udemy.com/course/automate/?couponCode=SEP2021FREE This promo code works until the 4th (I can't extend it past that). Sometimes it takes an hour or so for the code to become active just after I create it, so if it doesn't work, go ahead and try again a while later. I'll change it to SEP2021FREE2 in three days. I'm also working on another Udemy course that follows my recent book "Beyond the Basic Stuff with Python". So far I have the first 15 of the planned 56 videos done. You can watch them for free on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSrnLbioN6w&list=PL0-84-yl1fUmeV_2bBSguF_S0TVZk8wow&index=1 Udemy has changed their coupon policies, and I'm now only allowed to make 3 coupon codes each month with several restrictions. Hence why each code only lasts 3 days. I won't be able to make codes after this period, but I will be making free codes next month. Meanwhile, the first 15 of the course's 50 videos are free on YouTube. Side note: My latest book, The Big Book of Small Python Projects, is out. It's a collection of short but complete games, animations, simulations, and other programming projects. They're more than code snippets, but also simple enough for beginners/intermediates to read the source code of to figure out how they work. The book is released under a Creative Commons license, so it's free to read online. (I'll be uploading it this week when I get the time.) The projects come from this git repo.

| Is it normal to go through freecodecamp courses and feeling like you aren't really learning much? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 01:59 AM PDT I'm doing the responsive web design courses and I am worried that when I get to the projects part (which I am nearly up to) I won't even know where to start. I am gaining familiarity with all the types of html tags and css things used but don't really feel like it it sticking in my brain. Is it best to go through the courses more than once?

| Very excited about my new position! Posted: 02 Sep 2021 02:52 PM PDT A long time ago, back in the early 90's, I graduated from a respectable university with a BS in CS. Went to work at various companies writing code until about 2005 when I was hired to be a part of the enterprise architecture team for a large health care organization. I enjoyed the work but at the time didn't keep up my dev skills. Life was busy, and I was enjoying my new focus. Then I was laid off after 9 years there. That was a huge blow to the ego and came out of the blue as they were doing wide spread layoffs. Since the layoff and not having my dev skills to fall back on, I have focused on systems analysis. That's worked well and I've made a good living of it. But as a Sr. Analyst there aren't many options for upward movement - I'm not interested in management. I'm getting "old" and so I was just going to keep going until I one day retired. 5 years ago, was hired at another healthcare company as a sr. systems analyst. Then about 2 years ago, I was assigned a system to be the expert on. There were a lot of repetitive tasks and a lot of copy/pasting in working with this system. I finally decided that there had to be a better way besides just macros, etc. I started looking into python and figured that would be an easy way to automate some of my tasks. This system had a nice API so I was able to tie into that. Since development isn't part of my job, so I didn't feel right about using my day hours to work on it, I just played with it at night and built some great scripts that saved me a ton of time. Then, I figured there wasn't any reason these scripts couldn't be given to the people that asked me to do these things for them, and I built a GUI on top of these scripts. The tool got a lot of attention, and got me excited about development again! Over the last year, I've been studying hard to get back to being a software engineer. I figured I'd have to leave my current company if I wanted to be a developer again because I'm a valuable member of the analyst team and knew they wouldn't just let me move. Last review period I was given a nice raise due to this dev work which hadn't gone unnoticed. About a month ago I was invited by the engineering manager to interview for a recently opened intermediate software engineer position and got it! I still have a ton to (re)learn and lots of new technologies to learn, but I'm so excited to be back on the engineering side. This old dude, while I wish I had kept up my skills, is glad there's a place for me in engineering again. I love where I work, the people I work with, and management has been amazing and so supportive. Thanks for letting me share my story. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Sep 2021 05:41 PM PDT I've never felt more humbled and put in my place in my entire life. I've always considered myself a decently smart person, but I feel like an absolute moron trying to learn coding. I can't even grasp onto any of the pre-material that the bootcamp has provided me with to help me prepare for the actual thing. I am not able to understand what the hell I am looking at... it's almost like trying to learn a foreign language for me (and this is BEGINNER level material) .... somehow this beginner level material is extremely difficult for me to understand. Can someone please point me towards somewhere I can go to learn beginner level coding stuff before I start this bootcamp? Like, I'm talking material made so that a 6 year old could understand it. Like, the most dumbed down beginner level coding lesson. I just need something to learn so I don't feel hopeless here. Thank in advance. [link] [comments]  |
| Username says it all, ask whatever programming related Posted: 02 Sep 2021 06:04 PM PDT As a small background, self-learned, went to university, worked as a TA (explaining and grading hundreds of students in CS), now working in AI doing back-end work, though I wouldn't claim any deep knowledge of ML. I've done front end, back end, web and I'm currently trying to get better with RE as a personal hobby/project. If you have questions, bugs you're stuck on, questions about learning anything.

| Total beginner Python project ideas? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:38 PM PDT The best way to learn is trial and error, right? Well, I am trying to learn Python but following courses or so kind of bore my 13-year-old mind haha. I have written a few simple things by-myself and know a bit about basic syntax and terminology. Was going to try to take on a Discord .py Discord bot but I feel as if I should focus on simpler things for now (the API on discord .py kinda confuses me). Well anyway, thanks in advance haha. If you have any simple project ideas lmk! :) [link] [comments]  |
| I'm failing as a developer, should I quit my job bc I can't code in Java? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 01:40 PM PDT I'm struggling as a backend dev. I am using the quarkus framework, it's so bad to that I've thought about quitting multiple times. I've asked the senior dev for help multiple times but I'm even starting to lose interest bc it's not interesting that I can't produce anything. I'm making zero progress and hating it. I was excited to get the job out of college but this is so ridiculously complex that I'd literally rather do anything else than java and quarkus, any advice? And no there really aren't any good tutorials out there, I feel like this is the only company using quarkus. [link] [comments]  |
| How to start a back end portfolio? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 08:25 PM PDT Currently I'm learning .Net C# by my own and I really don't know how to do a good portfolio to get my first job, I can already make a "functional" Console App, but isn't based in any architecture or design pattern, it's this too important? I have to do a UI? Any tips I will be grateful [link] [comments]  |
| How to loop through a vector in TCL? Posted: 03 Sep 2021 12:22 AM PDT Hello everyone. I am new to tcl, and I couldn't figure out how to translate this code from python to TCL. I'm literally stuck at every line. Can anyone provide some insight
Thanks in advance [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Sep 2021 11:49 PM PDT I'm heavily leaning toward Firebase for a list of reasons but would look elsewhere if this isn't something it supports. I'm building an app which will eventually be full-stack but for the moment I'm just building a front-end in React. My MVP is an entirely front-end project and back-end features like user accounts and such will be in version 2. I'm realizing the amount of data I'd need to hardcode into the front end is completely unreasonable, so I'd like to figure out how to set up a simple, API that my front-end can query and be fed JSON-formatted data. But I also want this API to exist separately from this app as well. I plan to protect the API with a key. I realize means a rudimentary back-end so the key isn't exposed, but that's something I can work with. I can leave the API with no auth requirements while in development and then throw together a basic back-end for my app as the last-step before deployment to protect the API with a key that the app stores in a My challenge is that I can't find any tutorials on how to build this. Every Firebase tutorial I click around in becomes apparent is building a finished app. My app is a front-end React app and I already have that skill. Is there a certain term for this kind of project I'm just not searching to simply build a naked API, perhaps but not necessarily with a CMS? [link] [comments]  |
| pip install error on some packages, but not others. Posted: 02 Sep 2021 11:35 PM PDT "ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement jupyterlabs (from versions: none)ERROR: No matching distribution found for jupyterlabs" for context I just followed this video to solve sucessfully "pip is not recognized as an internal or external command" immediately post python install - by editing "system environment variables" (search for in windows menu) -- where I added path directory to python. idk exactly why i needed to do this, though maybe it'll help you help me [link] [comments]  |
| Noob with basic JavaScript execution order problem, script works in body, but not the header Posted: 02 Sep 2021 10:40 PM PDT I'm learning all about the DOM, execution order by browsers, etc. I keep having this issue where I'm running the script in the header (using defer) and the image I'm drawing to draw using Canvas simply doesn't appear. But, I put it in the bottom of the <body> and for some reason it executes flawlessly. this is very confusing to me because from my admittedly limited understanding the defer attribute basically allows the entire document to be loaded BEFORE it executes the script, in which case the script should have absolutely no issue running, and targeting DOM objects. At least that's my noob understanding. it's also weird that i put the script ABOVE the <img> element, and then it barely functions. I'm thinking the CSS is somehow interfering... [link] [comments]  |
| Can I translate my basic Javascript knowledge to learning C#? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 05:40 AM PDT Hi, I've been coding for a few months now with The Odin Projects course, I've finished the fundamentals now and my question is would I be able to learn C# or other languages from what I've learnt in The Odin Project, as I would like to develop games. I'm just concerned whether I would have to re learn fundamentals for different languages or something, as I started The Odin Project to try and just throw myself into learning any language really, but I don't know if Javascript or the things I've learned can be applied to non web-development languages. I would still like to continue learning Javascript though I just wanna know if my skills and knowledge can be translated. Also does anyone have any advice about choosing between Ruby on rails and Node.js? I think I'm leaning towards node as it apparently has more freedom than rails but any advice would be appreciated. Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Sep 2021 06:16 PM PDT What they don't tell you about resilient coders bootcamp It's a great opportunity to get into or further your skills as a full stack developer, there is a stipend check of $1,000 a month offered(biweekly), and it's 5 months long great employment conversion rate as well for those who actually make it through the whole entire bootcamp. I just wish they were more upfront about redirection which was previously known as being "cliffed". There are people who applied to the program under the impression that everyone will get treated the exact same way, but in reality it's similar to signing up for a coding contest. Many apply very few are chosen, out of the few who are chosen they start to make cuts about every 4 weeks, they go through the tons of homework and lab work that are assigned with a very short amount of time to finish and they pick out those who completed everything or enough work that is up to their approval due to it being more beneficial when it's time to place all the cohorts in front of their hiring partners. Being redirected means you can not come to the morning stand up chats or daily educational/interactional webinars anymore and they no longer give you those $500 every 2 week stipend checks(why? The instructor said they can not afford it)they put together a "learning program" that is more of "your pace" and they continue to meet with you to see how you're doing. It's almost impossible to balance a job and the program together since you have to devote hours of your time to make sure you're keeping up with with their standards of someone who they look at as a "resilient coder" and they do not offer part time. Someone in the class asked if those who were redirected can come back into normal scheduling in response the instructor said something along the lines of "we'll think about it" which pretty much means NO, they hide and reveal what they choose to based on how convenient it is for them. I went through the forms I signed prior to joining the program and I saw no details at all about what it's like being redirected not even in fine print, you'll have to find out about it AFTER joining the program, the alumnis who promote the program to others aren't the most upfront about "cliffing" details either. Great opportunity to start a new career in coding, but I wouldn't recommend quitting your day job unless you have enough funds to hold yourself over until you find a new stream of income just in case you're not chosen to move up, those checks stop rolling in and you're excluded from the community that you were initially introduced to from that point on to pretty much fend for yourself with video tutorials and coding blogs if you don't make the cut. I'm not sure if it will be different in the future, but this is how it is now. There's always a catch to "free". [link] [comments]  |

| What's a simple small project I can do in Java to demonstrate that I understand OOP concepts? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:39 PM PDT As an undergrad all I have is in class assignments. I feel like I haven't had to use too much OOP. What is something small that I can do and upload on GitHub and show to an employer for an undergrad internship? Note: something super simple.

| [Python] Can't execute a code for data deduplication with brute force on a large dataset Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:38 PM PDT Hey guys can you help with my code. I have a dataset with which i have to identify similar values(like spelling mistakes in name,etc). I am using jupyter notebook. so the code runs correctly until it prints the dataset (as in line 3). but when i run the second part, the code doesnt run at all. Initially i thought scince my dataset is big(around 35000 columns and 14 rows) it may take a while but it has been hours so i dont know what's wrong. Can anyone review the code and help me.

| How to ensure you're remembering old content and staying agile? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:30 PM PDT I'm new to CS taking my first Java class in college right now, and I'm just curious how you guys remember all this vocab and information, because it all seems very important. Does it just retain naturally when you keep coding small projects and learning new things? I'm only a week or two in and already I have over 20 pages of heavy, in-depth notes, and it just seems like a lot. I get it though, it's literally like learning a new language, and there's a lot required to have a decent core knowledge. So, read over old notes? Watch Youtube videos? Do small projects? How do you guys personally ensure you are retaining a solid amount of what you study? [link] [comments]  |
| Why lisp is such an adored but almost unused programming language? Posted: 02 Sep 2021 03:29 PM PDT Is it really better than python for example? Is really the syntax the problem? C++ is ugly and it is still used today. Why would the world not use a good tool? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:23 PM PDT I'm starting a new project in WPF C# and was wondering how I should handle multiple menus. My first project I just used different forms which I figure is bad practice so I don't want to do that again especially since it was clunky anyway. Should I use something like tabs or the content controller or is there something better suited for this? Thank you [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Sep 2021 09:18 PM PDT So, I'm very new to the coding front, is there a specific coding language that helps with game development? I wanna make a rudimentary rpg with elemental advantages, is there a language that helps with that kinda stuff? Thanks in advance!
