| Posted: 03 Oct 2021 07:37 PM PDT When I switched from studying, to landing an internship and eventually a junior developer position, the amount of time at the computer started to really affect my eyes. I have added dark mode, set my monitor to 'night time' light setting, try to take breaks looking away from the computer but inevitably find myself squinting and straining by the end of the day. What are some methods that have helped you? Anyone like blue light glasses? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 03 Oct 2021 07:22 PM PDT Prior to my coding bootcamp, I was a fine arts student who couldn't find a job. I can't begin to tell you the countless times people asked me about "going back to school" so I could "get a better education", recruiters and other interviewee's telling me that my "arts degree" is "useless". Overall, that job-seeking time in my life was pretty hectic and emotionally draining. Eventually, a friend mentioned programming to me, and I fell in love. I never thought a stereo-typical "creative" like me could fall in love with something so "out of my realm", but, I did. I considered going back to school to get my BS in CS, but, it would have taken four years and I didn't have the time, nor finances. So, I applied, and was soon accepted into a bootcamp. I took out an ISA loan and made it my goal to put my heart and soul into the program. The bootcamp itself was intense, rigorous, and challenging. But at the same time, I was battling living in a severely abusive household that made it difficult overall. I couldn't focus well on projects, and barely passed most assessments and projects given. But, at the end of the day, I graduated. However, life threw me a major curveball after graduating from my coding bootcamp. Nearly a month after graduation, I was kicked out and was homeless for a handful of weeks. Luckily, I was able to keep my ground and am now living with friends. It's been seven months since graduating from my coding bootcamp and I feel incredibly discouraged. In a nutshell, life threw me a major curveball after graduation. Within those months following me being kicked out from my family's house, I've had to put coding and the job search aside completely. Since then, I've taken up a freelance writing job for now but am seriously itching to get back into coding so I can make my way back into the job hunt and find a well-paying job I enjoy. But, to be frank, I have no idea where to start. I've forgotten most everything I learned from the bootcamp. My GitHub is empty. My projects are nonexistent (it was incredibly hard for me to complete the bootcamp suitably because of my abusive living situation). Now that it's seven months out and I'm just now beginning to get a footing, I don't know where to begin. If anything, I feel like I need to start all over and self-teach myself because I don't have access to the materials and resources from the bootcamp anymore since it's been so much time past. I'm concerned about how this will look on a resume. I'm concerned about how to even begin, what to study, etc. I still have this 20k ISA loan looming over my head that's also giving me a lot of anxiety. At this point, I'm just looking for words of encouragement, advice, and help because I really don't know what to do, and I'm feeling incredibly discouraged. [link] [comments]  |
| I understand concepts but have difficulty applying or coding them Posted: 03 Oct 2021 09:42 AM PDT I can't figure out why I have no trouble understanding the concept of data structures and algorithms, but if I try and add a node to a BinarySearchTree, I will probably shed a few tears. Does anyone have any advice? Or what does this mean? Am I making it too theoretical and it's getting in the way of my programming? Why do I have difficulty applying/coding these concepts that I can visualize in my head? Also I can read code and understand, but trying to reproduce it if the problem is reworded is difficult. Does that mean I don't have the proper brain for programming? [link] [comments]  |
| Which course to take at uni, Cloud Computing or Unix/Linux? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 05:03 AM PDT Hello, i have to choose between these two courses. I dont much about either, besides that CC is about online servers and u/L are OS. So I plan on developing Android/IOS apps (havent decided which yet) after uni, which one would be more useful? And why? Thanks :) [link] [comments]  |
| Teaching people JavaScript programming with Svelte? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 02:13 PM PDT I started a programming club at school and need a fast way to teach 3-10 students how to program. I know how to program myself, and was wondering if teaching people how to make a website with svelte.js would work. I understand that they still need the vanilla JS experience, but I feel as if Svelte provides a near-absolute experience of vanilla js with HTML. I would still like opinions on the matter though.

| API for file extension to MIME type? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 11:47 PM PDT I'm working on a project that can contain any file extension. And so I wanna be prepared. Whenever you a HTTP request, you must specify a few headers. So my question is: is there an API which will return to me the correct MIME type formatting when I send it the file extension? I am using JavaScript. Is it also possible that it will give me the reverse? Like if I send the MIME type it returns the file extension? [link] [comments]  |
| How do I distribute a java app I created on Windows to Mac OS computers? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 05:45 PM PDT I can't seem to make the .app extensions or the other application extensions I see on Mac while on Windows. Can I just distribute the jar file as long as the receiving party has java installed? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Oct 2021 07:50 PM PDT "CODING GROUP" anyone interested in making a coding group? We can have online meet ups once a week or twice and work on group projects or do Q&A or just motivate each other a (coding support group) 😁 any takers ? All are welcomed, California is my location.

| How can I get a reversed downward right angle triangle pattern out of a for loop? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 07:30 PM PDT Hello, first off, apologies for the confusing title and for breaking any format/ post rules, am very new to both reddit and python. This is a problem I've been trying to solve for the past 2 hours with no success. My code right now: How can I make it so that the output looks like the first line for every other line while keeping the same pattern? ( e.g. 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 7 on line 2 and so on) Thank you.

| Spent about a thousand hours over the past year....feeling doubtful... Posted: 03 Oct 2021 08:38 AM PDT I so badly do not want to be a quitter, and I know to get what you want out of life you usually have to do very hard things most people aren't willing to do if you want things most people don't have. I have a very unimpressive resume, no education besides high school and I found coding at the beginning of 2021 as maybe a catalyst to a career where I could become SuCcEsSfUlL... I have spent probably around 1,000 hours strictly relating to HTML, CSS, and Javascript-watching videos, working through the HTML and CSS paths of Codecademy as well as the Javascript path and about halfway through the PRO Front End developer path-alongside building mock responsive websites. I'm deeply questioning my path in life....I saw code as a skill you could learn that would make you marketable and allow me to live a good life-a thing that I could put my work-ethic and discipline towards and reap the rewards...but now, I am deeply questioning if I should continue.. I'm having doubts if I have the mental capacity to show up at a computer in an office/corporate setting and solve complex problems, I'm really struggling with basic JS stuff and various problems are leaving me feeling more and more dumb-currently working with Objects and solving problems with them and just feel like much isn't sticking. I knew the path was going to be hard, and I have struggled all the way through up to this point and i'm just seriously doubting if Tech/programming is a fit for me, or if I am a fit for it...I don't want to waste anymore time :( i'm 28... I just don't know if this is another procrastination effort where i'm just "teaching myself" and then never going to actually do anything with it.. Can anyone else relate to this at all?

| Need help understanding when to add additional parameters to a recursive function. Posted: 03 Oct 2021 07:10 PM PDT I was recently doing the problem Coin Change 2 on leetcode. The description is as follows: Question: Given an array of coins and an amount, return the number of combinations of coins that make up the amount.
I was able to solve this using the following recurrence: let Using this I can formulate a DP solution with n2 time and n space. This got me thinking - why exactly do we need two parameters for this recurrence? For example if we modify this problem to return the total number of permutations instead of the combinations I can get away with using just a single parameter. Consider the following question: Question: Given an array of coins and an amount, return the total number of permutations of coins that make up the amount.
I can solve this using the following recurrence: let Using this I can formulate a DP solution with n2 time and n space. My Question What is it about the coin change combination problem requires it to have two parameters i and n in the recurrence? Why can't we use just a single parameter n? What separates the coin change combination problem from the coin change permutation problem? Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Is a code bootcamp like Codecamp or Claim Academy worth it? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 10:52 PM PDT I've worked in aviation as an avionics technician for almost 10 years, and I'm not happy anymore. I haven't been in a while. The money is great for me, and I have great benefits. But I'm looking at learning something new. I have been interested in coding, and have been thinking seriously about going to a bootcamp in order to learn more and perhaps gain new employment. Although I'd like a job that pays similarly to my current job (70-80k), I'm doubting that this would happen right away. Should I spend the time and money on a bootcamp? Is it worth quitting my current job in order to attend a bootcamp? I would be fine financially. What are typical salaries for newer developers? Should I try learning on my own and work on small projects? [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for group web development learners Posted: 03 Oct 2021 09:11 AM PDT EDIT; So for now we have reached our goal level for new members. I will no longer be responding to DMs about the group. Sorry to anyone who wasn't accepted or failed to accept the invite in a timely fashion. I will post again in a month or two for new members or if the new members are inactive or leave. Thank you all for the interest! Currently looking for people interested in learning web development to join a coding accountability and support discord so we can work together and help each other out. We currently have a handful of members with different specialties and varying levels of knowledge, and different languages/frameworks. The only requirements are: You are learning web development, and you will be active in the discord. No skill level is required. Send me a DM if you are interested. [link] [comments]  |
| How can this algorithm be improved? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 04:34 PM PDT Hello, This function currently works as intended, but I knew when I was writing it that there is a better way to implement the same functionality. I believe this could be reduced to only a few lines, using the correct technique. The current implementation is clunky and less than ideal. In the interest of improving my programming ability, I was wondering if someone here would help me improve this. Description: Given x, y coordinates, returns the grid cell within a 300x300 image, that is split into 100x100 cells. Thank you. [link] [comments]  |
| What technology should I learn for mobile development? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 06:46 PM PDT I wanted to do a side project to have experience with mobile development but I don't know where to start. What frameworks are popular and which ones should I look to learn? I have experience building full stack web applications with JQuery, React, Express, and Flask for some context. [link] [comments]  |
| What do I do while learning computer science Posted: 03 Oct 2021 10:27 PM PDT I'm in my second year of computer science only took 2 major classes so far. I'm just a bit confused on what to do while studying. I'm not sure what career path I want to go down but leaning towards software engineering and web development.I'm currently learning c++ I understand what I've been taught so far but struggling with the application part. I'm not sure how to use what I'm learning to create something if that makes sense. Like I understand what it's suppose to do but not sure how to actually apply it. Or should I focus on learning like html/css(already know a good portion of it) and JavaScript and maybe start making websites. I'm just a bit confused and lacking correction any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |

| Git Issues in JetBrains IDE with SMB Project Posted: 03 Oct 2021 05:33 PM PDT Sorry if this sub isn't the correct place to ask for help with this issue, /r/Jetbrains looked a bit dead when I checked it. I'm working on a project that consumes most of the system resources on my Macbook Pro. The IDE and browser, both required to develop and test the project, are usable with the project running, but frustratingly sluggish at times. I've shared the project folder on my LAN VIA SMB, and opened up the Macbook to allow for an SSH connection. On another machine, running Windows 10, I mounted the SMB folder using mllink and opened it in RubyMine. My current issue is that RubyMine displays a large number of files as if there are Git changes to be committed, but the commit dialog shows no differences and specifically states that "Contents are identical" for all of the files. I've tried checking the git status (no changes to commit), invalidating the IDE cache and restarting it, doing a hard reset in git and then pulling the latest code, checking line endings, and the "Reload from Disk" option when right-clicking on a file. Does anyone have an idea for how to solve this issue? There is also a secondary issue where RubyMine's built-in terminal seems incapable of displaying ASCII escape codes when connecting to the Macbook VIA SSH. I'm launching the SSH session using The working SSH session, using the first command, outputs text similar to the following:
I've resorted to launching a Windows Terminal profile, outside of RubyMine, using Any help with this issue is also appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Planning to start Harvard's CS50 from tomorrow. Any advice based on your own experience? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 10:40 AM PDT So today I am finally free from all my exams. I am "averagely-versed" in python. I studied it in school, made a data-driven project (on Tours and Travels). Front-end with python, and stored its data in MySQL. Was very proud of it, and the project came out pretty neat. So I do have a noob-level understanding and experience in coding [lists, string, tuple, dictionary, sorting, stacks and queues, mysql connector, loops, a basic understanding of topologies(Computer Networks)] . I will start the course from tomorrow if everything goes planned. So any piece of advice you might give me? It's a 12 week long course too.. I'll be in a college by December; I read that it is self-paced, but again I don't wanna rush it. Edit: added stuff [link] [comments]  |
| What's the best way to a blog (essays/articles) to my personal website? Posted: 03 Oct 2021 09:02 PM PDT I'm new to coding and built my website using HTML and CSS. I figured I could add a new page to store all writings and a link to each on it's own html page, but I wonder if this is the best approach. Seems like this is how Paul Graham writes his content here. Purpose is to gather my product/startup knowledge to display by product knowledge to hiring managers (also it'd be nice to build my brand like this). Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Oct 2021 05:12 PM PDT Hi! I'm very new to Front End and web development (around 1 1/2 months). I'm just learning about RegEx, and as I understand no one really remembers them, everyone googles them when needed. Is there any kind of site where you can set the parameters (eg numbers from 1 to 7, only letters all lowercase, etc) and you automatically get the RegEx? Thanks (I'm taking a test tomorrow) [link] [comments]  |
