    Which programming language is recommended for novice?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 08:07 PM PST

    Hello, I am a 40 year old man, in midlife boredom. I always wanted to learn a computer language but never got time. This year, I decided no matter what, I am going to learn a computer language. However I am too confused about it. Please help.. [edit] Thank you all kind redditors for giving such wonderful advise. I am going to start with python language first as it is most recommended one by you all. Will update my progress as it goes. Once again thank you all for ur advise and support.

    Any good place to find open source projects needing contributors

    Posted: 02 Jan 2022 04:56 AM PST

    I'd be interested in seeing a hub of small programming tasks various open source projects would like help with. Sort of like a newsfeed stream of GitHub issues. You could hopefully find one you're capable of working on. And through that, develop more of a relationship with the project and the people who run it.

    How might I conveniently find some volunteer work that needs doing?

    Thanks

    Is coding (bootcamp/career) for me if I like building things but hate solving coding problems? (serious)

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 09:16 AM PST

    I'm fairly new (have done CS50 and self-taught various intro courses for Python, Javascript, CSS, Ruby and others).

    I don't like solving coding problems. If I could code with a friendly GUI, I'd be much happier. Thus far, coding has been a kind of tedious stepping stone to create what I like.

    Caveat: I still suck; there's no language I'm good or even passable at. However, even with HTML/CSS which i can do pretty easily, the coding is the tedious bit. There's not the feeling of satisfaction I get from solving a crossword or something.

    So would a coding bootcamp / career basically be exactly what I dislike? Solving other people's code problems to create stuff I'm probably indifferent to?

    Am I better off continuing to build my own stuff and not considering it as a possible career? (I need a career change, but don't want to chase a delusion that would actually make me unhappy)

    I'm unsure if these are normal thoughts or a sign coding's not for me.

    edit: to be clear, in all the coding i've done so far, there's never been a moment where I've thought "it's fun piecing this together :)" - it's always been "why the fuck can't there be an easier way". it's like I want to write poems on MS Word, but I first have to code MS Word itself. to me that seems a bad sign, but idk

    What are some good lightweight, open source, self-hosted CMS options for designing a static website?

    Posted: 02 Jan 2022 12:11 AM PST

    I'm looking for a self-hosted CMS system to host a basic website with. I'm thinking something with functionality similar to Go Daddy's site builder or Squarespace.

    Ideally, it has all these features: * Easy to setup and self-host on an Ubuntu VPS * Uses SQLite (no MySQL setup required) * Easy to edit the website from a browser * Has built-in themes to select from * Open Source * Lightweight

    WordPress is pretty similar to what I'm looking for, but it's slightly too much work to setup and maintain on a VPS. I want a more lightweight option, if possible.

    Thanks for any options anyone can find!

    Uno (C#) vs. Flutter

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 07:01 PM PST

    Wondering if anyone has used both, or either, of these technologies. I'm trying to decide which one to learn. I've got some ideas for desktop software that I want to release on Windows and Mac at minimum, without relying on web tech (I really, really don't want to touch Electron or any of its spawn) while simultaneously reducing effort. I already know C# which is why I'm thinking about Uno, but I also know that MAUI is around the corner and Uno's support is already fairly niche (not waiting for MAUI because of MS's track record of botched tech launches - I assume it'll be good by v2).

    Flutter is a good contender because it's more popular, but I also hear that it can't share as much code between platforms. It's also appealing because by learning it I can add it as an attractive resume item.

    Has anyone used either/both and can comment on pain points?

    Small but important fixes?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 10:25 PM PST

    What are some experiences with "small but importan fixes"?

    Today I've charged a good amount of money, just for changing a database operator from "gt" to "gte"

    I want to do this with python

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 07:17 PM PST

    def return_name_of_single_color(rgb_value): #some stuff 

    Input : https://i.stack.imgur.com/z9SyX.png

    Output : https://i.stack.imgur.com/dmGhM.png

    My guess is that you can probably do it if you know the range of RGB values for each monochromatic color, but I cant find it

    Is algol worth learning?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 10:15 AM PST

    I've been told algol is the basis of many languages, kind of like Latin is for many natural languages

    It might not be the most useful, but if it makes learning other languages in the future easier that's worthwhile

    I only know python at the moment, but I'm a freshman in computer science, and going into a C++course soon, i'm a bit worried about it because I just took a java class and, yeah. I didn't learn anything

    Thanks

    Idea developed for computer program - I have little programming experience, which language to I start to learn to develop from scratch?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 09:42 AM PST

    My partner and I have an idea for a computer program (likely Windows based) and need help on how to begin. Both of our backgrounds are in engineering, so we have done some programming in the past but not enough to know where to begin with this.

    Our idea is for a software that fulfils a need in our industry. We've asked several industry customers and regulatory body members and each have expressed interest. We have drawn up (literally, on paper) how we want this to look and what functions it must have.

    At this stage, we're ready to begin building our first go at the program. We would need to build a GUI, would enjoy having a 3D model which you could view (not edit or manipulate) like in AutoCAD or SolidWorks, have fields to input values, and be able to produce results in forms of numbers, graphics, plots, etc.

    1. Which programming language should we learn?
    2. Where's the best place you would recommend for learning resources?
    3. How do we deploy a copy for user testing once we're satisfied with a first draft?

    Sorry if these questions have been asked time and time again, though I wasn't able to find any answer that I needed. Answers in any length are appreciated!

    Why do web developers care about having a powerful computer?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 12:34 PM PST

    I've seen comments from web developers talking about how they wish they had a more powerful computer (the M1 chip being all the rage). But it seems that web development uses very little processing power compared to things like audio production, video editing, or motion graphics. So why do web developers care? They don't need crazy processing power, right?

    No experience but have a problem

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 11:13 AM PST

    So I'm a designer and do mostly designs related to a game. A lot of the in-game assets are from an online database that's just URL's, no interface so I can't image scrape with a program like HTTracker. So my question is, is there any program/python code or similar that I can use to be able to get all the images? Example URL: Pacwyn,app/v22/cdn/card-types/*Card ID*.png

    As I said, I'm a complete beginner and mostly looking for something that already exists.

    Thanks.

    How to deploy an application to a server

    Posted: 01 Jan 2022 01:06 AM PST

    Android Programmer here.

    I want to create an application that handles REST calls and make it available via the web.

    I created an application with ktor and ran it on my local machine so my client (android device) could access it via local ip address (both ran on the same wifi router).

    I have no idea how to deploy it to a server.

    1) Do I need to buy a server?

    2) I have read somewhere that you can run smaller applications on heroku for free. How small is small and what if I will be exceeding this "small"?

    3) I also want to buy a domain. Can I just reroute the address (example.com) to an ip address that hosts the server?

    Why doesn’t the transform: element work when I use it on my laptop?

    Posted: 31 Dec 2021 10:56 PM PST

    I'm learning CSS and I tried using all of the transform: properties and none of them changed the text. Why is this?
