| Posted: 29 Oct 2021 03:44 AM PDT Maybe this depends on what kind of field in programming you work in. Personally, I'm a full-stack web developer. I've honestly needed nothing more than the good ol' bash terminal, which is now available across the three popular operating systems: Linux, Windows, and MacOS. I've programmed on all three operating systems, and, in terms of what I can do as a developer, nothing was different. Anytime I needed to use the terminal, I just used bash. Anytime I needed to write code, I just used VS Code. Anytime I wanted to create an application with a UI, I just used browsers. All of these are available across the three aforementioned operating systems, so I'm confused as to why I've seen a lot of people say things like, "Instead of using Windows with WSL, just use LInux", "Instead of using MacOS, program on Linux", or "Linux is the best operating system for programmers". Can someone provide some clarity on this trend? Because, for me, at the end of the day, the biggest factor in me choosing one OS over another depends more on preference than something like one OS being concretely better than the other for development.

| Trouble with putting .ppm file into an array Posted: 29 Oct 2021 06:38 PM PDT I'm currently trying to use a file input stream in order to get the contents of a .ppm file into a 2-D array. I can get the integer values into the array, however, I am supposed to separate the elements of the array into groups of 3 integers(to represent the RGB of the pixels). I have tried everything I can think of in order to fix this but have been unable to find a solution and my array is stuck as just the normal array, any help would be appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2021 08:30 PM PDT tl'dr i want to move up in company, need to learn how to code. Ruby/RoR is the most sought after, but what/how do i go about it? I just got hired at a company to do front end tech support for our product. I really want to advance within the company, but outside of my position, the next logical path would be a Software engineer (its a mid size startup, so not many positions available in the middle ground yet). The application uses API calls, as well as a few different languages. Most prominently Ruby/Ruby on Rails. They also use JavaScript and Python off the top of my head. It also helpful to know other languages because our merchants use their language of choice as well, and it would be beneficial to be able to help them. Since i just started, itll be a while before im up for any kind of promotion anyway. So i want to take this time (2-3 years or so) to learn how to code. I have no idea where to start. Im pretty sure i want to learn Ruby/RoR first because thats the most desirable language internally, but is Ruby the right place to start? And if so, how do i even get started? i have absolute zero knowledge of coding, so ELI5 please. Also, whats the best path to take for other languages? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:19 PM PDT I automized a bank account via headless chrome, however this won't work anymore due to various reasons. I would like to use the banking app, either ios or android, but still need to programatically remote control the application. It must be something like - start session i'm not really sure where to start as whenever i google, i don't really find the solution that i'm looking for. is this even achievable? [link] [comments]  |
| Encase forensic software question Posted: 29 Oct 2021 05:56 PM PDT I'm really not sure where else to ask this, so if there's another sub that would be more suitable for this question, please let me know. I'm using EnCase for a course that's asking me to view the Evidence Processor Results. The problem is that the textbook is using version 7 as a reference and were using version 21 for the class and the instructions don't translate. I tried searching but the website for encase seems to be unavailable ATM. Any help would be appreciated, tia [link] [comments]  |
| Is it bad practice to expose your dev server on 0.0.0.0? Posted: 29 Oct 2021 06:20 AM PDT When I'm working on my laptop, I tend to launch my servers (e.g. Flask, webpack-dev-server) on 0.0.0.0 out of habit. Until one day, my school's IT staff contacted me and told me to avoid doing so because it otherwise exposes my computer to the world. Is the IT manager being paranoid or does his advice have a grain of salt? [link] [comments]  |

The only program language i know is python, so i was thinking of usuing pandas, but i would like to know if there are better way to do it [link] [comments]  |
| As a DevOps / Infrastructure Engineer, what should I know about a Developer's needs and wants? Posted: 29 Oct 2021 11:04 AM PDT Something that occurred to me today, is that I'm actually unfamiliar with what the diversity of developers actually want. I know if you ask ten million developers you'll get ten million options, but I'm just looking to know what I should be aiming to improve. And I know, the answer in general is "ask them", but some of our developers don't know what to ask for to improve their lives. So let's assume I have comfortable knowledge in the topics, and let me know, "As a Developer, I need these abilities to do my job correctly or preferably." We have a Gitlab CI/CD platform, BitBucket/Gitlab Code repository, and Sonarqube integration for security scanning. We do predominantly Java, however we have some C# / .net, Android and IOS development. [link] [comments]  |
| Help with adding 2 lines of code into existing JavaScript file Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:20 PM PDT I have absolutely no idea what I am doing - but I have two lines of code that need to be added to an existing JavaScript file. These two lines have absolutely nothing to do with the existing code. Without going into more detail, does this make sense and can someone help me? The existing code is used to customize a login landing page for a service that our organization uses. The two lines of code that we need added are to limit some functionality within the service and it has nothing to do with the login landing page. The service that we use has an "upload JavaScript area" where the current code lives, but you can't upload multiple files, just one. So if I save these two lines of code in a new JS file and upload it, it works, but I lose all of the other code. I can't find anywhere I can add these two lines to the existing code to make it work. I've tried everywhere. If this makes sense and someone thinks they can help, PLEASE PM me! [link] [comments]  |
| How can I handle high frequency requests to an event sourced system? Posted: 29 Oct 2021 06:39 AM PDT I have an event sourced system, where aggregates can be subject to hundreds of events every second. I currently have an optimistic concurrency retry strategy for applying events, however after the maximum retry count is reached (currently 3), I've told it to fail. With the number of events that come into it, it fails a lot. Is it just a simple case of increasing the retry count? Or is a better strategy for handling lots of events all at once?

| General programming questions from some outside of the industry. Posted: 29 Oct 2021 10:24 AM PDT Hello! I have a few general questions about groaning. I'm currently in high school on track to graduate with an AA on the path to double major in Finance and Management. I wanted to be sure that there wasn't anything else I would want to pursue before committing to this path. My questions are:
Personal note: In the past when I've researched, I read that this field has a lot of opportunities, but mainly for senior positions, and entry level positions are very difficult to get into. Is this correct? Thank you in advance for answering any that you can. :) [link] [comments]  |
| How do I code projects independently without having to copy code from tutorials? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 11:05 PM PDT I started programming Python about a year or 2 ago. I've been coding since and I love it. But because of my tight schedule, I'm unable to code every day so I only code on weekends. But one thing that hurts me a lot is the fact that most of my programming friends, can code independently without help from YouTube tutorials and they make really good projects while coding the same amount of time I do. We all started coding at the same time but I feel like I'm left behind while they code amazing projects. All the good projects I've made are all from snippets, websites, and YouTube tutorials which makes me feel dumb and horrible at coding. Most of the people I know have become really good at Python programming in just a year or so. I'm really into programming but I feel I'm not good at it because of the way I rip code off from YouTube tutorials. Please help me. [link] [comments]  |
| Quick question regarding Web development for a noob Posted: 29 Oct 2021 03:57 AM PDT Hi guys. I would like to make a food/dessert ordering website, I am already proficient in html and CSS and a little JS all for front end. Would you recommend I study and use PHP/MYSQL or Node for backend. This will be very new to me so was wondering if anyone could let me know the easier/faster option to learn and then implement. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2021 09:42 AM PDT Hey guys, Im trying to find the best approach for a virtual tour software which I can set up in a fashion that I can click buttons on my end and have the tour move to a certain space, and/or drop a pin in the tour itself, which will then redirect my webpage or fill out form fields for me. In simpler terms a virtual tour that can interact with my webapp, as I understand most of these tours are just embedded, so if theres a way I can make api calls and make this happen that would be great. Also if theres a better subreddit for this question please let me know or if theres any ideas on softwares or implementation ideas. [link] [comments]  |
| How to make a SaaS? Is there a good book about this? Posted: 29 Oct 2021 09:03 AM PDT I'm not talking about business ideas, but rather how would one learn the technical skills to make one? Should I dive into Django/Python with AWS integration? [link] [comments]  |
| Recommended Developer Consultation Companies Posted: 29 Oct 2021 04:17 AM PDT If this is the wrong sub-reddit to ask this question my apologies but I am trying to carry out some market research of companies that can provide developmental support to a small business. This ranges from smartphone app support/development and web apps. Will need to be in a timezone close to GMT so support can take place during our work hours. Any recommendations provided will be much appreciated as I've been struggling to find some online. [link] [comments]  |
| Revisiting a Project after long depression Posted: 29 Oct 2021 07:40 AM PDT Hi all, I was working on a project before I entered a major depressive episode. It would be one thing if things were working smoothly before, but the database ended up getting polluted. I'm not entirely sure if it is my code's fault or some fuckery with the data source. I wrote all of this code myself and now when I try to revisit it to fix stuff, I freeze up, overwhelmed by the volume of things. I tried to keep things organized, but sometimes that doesn't always work out. People have been starring my project and I'd like to get it working properly for both them and myself. https://github.com/XVicarious/FlexAniDBSuite The "cwd" branch is pretty much my current working branch. I was fixing something else, and got distracted. You'll see two pull requests Suggestions? This used to be a passion project that I'd spend pretty much all of my free time that I wasn't at my job on this project. Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Script to automatically send files to a specific folder in the Cloud Posted: 29 Oct 2021 03:32 AM PDT I am currently developing a business idea, but I lack the experience and knowledge to build the script I need for the idea to run smoothly. I am currently creating a business that focuses on selling specific files (.plot) to individuals. My idea was to upload the files from my system to the cloud service from where customer would be able to download the files. Since each completed .plot file is larger than 100GB, I have large amounts of cloud storage rented out. In order to automate this process, I need a script that uploads every .plot file from a specific drive in my system to a specific folder/destination on the cloud. The files will be written on a drive in my system (which will be mainly dedicated for this process) however, files of many types will be written simultaneously on this drive, therefore, the script should be able to select just .plot files to be transferred to the final destination. In this script, I should be able to input the client number or the destination folder in the cloud for every new client/order (e.g. Client001, Client002, etc.). Therefore, the script should be able to recognize that my input is (=) the final directory were the file will sit in the cloud (consequently, if final directory with such name was not found - display error). Finally the consumer should be able to download the file from the final destination in the cloud to their local machine. Moreover, once I have input the final destination (or client number) and the script has been able to allocate the destination, the script should be able to run constantly in the background once started, as once the process starts, new .plot files will be written every X hours in my drive, which need to be automatically sent to the final destination in the specific cloud folder. As stated before, I have not been able to try out or write any code as I do not have the knowledge to build a script as such. I was hoping I could get some help from you guys to get some ideas and get my script started. I am currently running on windows, but I can transition to Linux if necessary. If you have any doubts or you don't understand my reasoning, do not hesitate to answer to this post as any help will be appreciated for a rookie that is new on programming. Thank you in advance!

| Which language/technology/design pattern is applicable here? Posted: 29 Oct 2021 06:12 AM PDT If you were to design and program a new solution today for a business application which will be used to perform CRUD operations using forms on various entities, essentially filling out and consuming forms for business processes and storing them in a database, which language/technology/design pattern would you chose?
Here are some options I'm considering:
I'd love to hear recommendations, preferences, and how you go about the project, database choice, design pattern, etc... [link] [comments]  |
