| What have you been working on recently? [March 05, 2022] Posted: 04 Mar 2022 09:00 PM PST 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!

| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 08:21 AM PST I don't know any programming, so I'm starting from scratch. So here's my question. If I move to the EU, what programming skills should I teach myself over the next 2 or so years, in order to eventually land a programming job? I'm willing to learn a lot, but there's so many paths! I just don't know what I should learn, because I don't know the job market. What are the best skills to learn to land a job in the EU? I only care about employability. As such, which skills are the best for that? Which languages should I learn, which skills should I pick up? P.S: I know the stupid questions might make you think that I am not suited for programming and I should look somewhere else, and I would usually agree. But since I may be forced to leave, I have no choice. I'm a 27 year old dude who was depressed for 14 years, so I wasted years in uni and I got useless social science degrees that left me with no skills. I have no more chances, this is it, it's either programming or ... low wage jobs for the rest of my life. I can't go to uni again, especially since I'll have to do menial jobs for a few years to sustain myself and my family. So programming is literally the only way I see for me to not work the worst jobs for the rest of my life, to maybe have a chance a few years in the future. Of course, if you have another idea I'm all ears, but I think this is the only option. Thanks! Edit: Thanks guys! I think I'm going to go with front-end web development. My only fear is that it may be saturated, so idk how possible it is to get a job without a degree. But I'll try! Thanks! [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Should a computer science student be able to build websites? Posted: 04 Mar 2022 03:58 PM PST I'm in my senior year and some people I have talked to seemed very shocked by the fact I don't know how to build a website from scratch. I have not been the best at exploring topics outside what they teach us in college. On the same topic what kind of skills shouldstudends explore outside school [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Recommended: MASSIVE, Advanced C# Tutorial Posted: 05 Mar 2022 11:32 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLWMQd6PeGY0bEMxObA6dtYXuJOGfxSPx Tim Corey is a developer who runs an online school and produces a huge volume of free content for YouTube. This playlist is for a massive (70+ episode) C# tutorial that walks you through building a WebAPI-based inventory app for a retailer. I'm still working through it myself but I'm seriously impressed. It has something of an on-the-job-training vibe. What I've gotten out of this course:
This is an advanced course and users would benefit with at least a minimal comfort level in C# and Visual Studio, but if that's you this is definitely worthwhile. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Feeling lost on connecting front to backend Posted: 05 Mar 2022 03:08 AM PST So I learned HTML, CSS, JS about 10 years ago when I was a teen. I've kept up a little with changes a little bit. But I mostly moved to low level languages. C++ and C. But all my learning was self directed and incomplete. I then learned Linux inside out for a while, and then I went back to the web. Anyway, my background is diverse but not in depth. My main question is: how does the front end interface with backend? I understand JS scripts and forms can call actions. Or send data. But where do I store the backend scripts? When I studied Python for a month or something I think the files were saved as .py and they were just accessing html files and loading them... Where are backend scripts stored in relationship to HTML files? Is there a server that runs them? Do they have different access permissions? Are they accessed by function name or file name? And why does it feel so dirty programming in Ruby? (Mostly a joke, but honestly it felt weird anytime i used a scripting language...) [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Space to talk with other beginners ? Posted: 05 Mar 2022 12:48 PM PST Okay so, I'm learning programming (no big surprise here) and i thought about the fact that i really have nobody to talk to about how I'm progressing and what i learned. I also don't have anyone to ask for help when i have an issue with my code or stuff like that. So i looked for community of people learning like me but i haven't really find anything. So does anyone know a community like a discord server where i could speak to other people learning programming ? Thanks you! [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Where is the best place to learn C++ for a beginner with no prior programming experience Posted: 05 Mar 2022 10:20 AM PST Can you guys suggest a good course/place to learn C++. After doing some research, I found out that books are the best way to learn it. Problem is I don't do really well with books. Are there any courses which you've tried/is using that teaches and explains C++ really well. Thanks in advance :)) [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 04 Mar 2022 03:50 PM PST I'm currently learning Java right now and learning OOP is more annoying than some of the data structures and algorithms that I've used in python previously. They're supposed to be easy? but Inner classes are killing me rn, they just don't seem logical [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Is it just me or git/github is so hard to understand Posted: 04 Mar 2022 05:33 PM PST I spend 4 hours just to rename or deleting my commits because there isn't any edit your commit button on the website. at the end i found a code like "--hard reset commit id". yes i deleted all my commits but all my local files and project gone! and i can't recover them.

| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 09:14 AM PST Hey guys few questions for a Spring boot REST app: 1 - When should async methods be used? Is it chaining request from different services or making db calls? If its the above I assume you make the user wait to get the response 2 - in what situations would you return a response straight away and run a async method? Would it be When you fire off an event to something like Kafka? So example: they post a request to email a list of ppl on their team, just respond with the eventID received from kafka? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Question about data collection in ide's and code editors Posted: 05 Mar 2022 04:33 AM PST Do ide such as visual studio or vscode or any google dependencies or tensorflow collect the programming data such as source code from the users. I know I am paranoid but just can't shake this feeling considering that these mncs collect data in general. If yes, then kindly suggest me a alternative. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

| Build “dummy” projects to solidify concepts? Posted: 04 Mar 2022 10:11 PM PST I'm currently learning (strike through) struggling learning algorithms & data structures in JavaScript. I learn the concept, try to solve some problems but a week later, and two weeks later, and a month later I forget most of it and have to "start again". My question is: Do I build a small project that allow me to apply concepts like binary trees and binary search? Stacks, Queues, Sorting? If so, can you share with me some ideas? I'm thinking if building a phone search directory is a good match for binary trees and binary search algo? I'm 🤔 not sure or IDK. Also, when you add to that systems design, do you really build any project where you can apply a distributed system, concurrency, sharding, etc? If so, can you share some ideas? Long life to JavaScript! Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦!! [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I'm considering taking this boot camp Posted: 05 Mar 2022 09:14 AM PST The website is here I've run an established pressure washing business for the last 18 years so I have steady income , and I don't have a lot of pressure to get a job in this field after the boot camp. I just want to get the boot camp behind me and move into a new career as i'm 57 doing pressure washing still. Question is : They offer a 12 week boot camp ( full time ) where they advise you to be free of having a full time job. Being self employed I could work as little as 4 hours a day and get by financially. Or would it be better if I took the 24 week boot camp ? I've been watching videos and reading up on this stuff for a few months so i'm not completely green . I've also watched videos of how difficult this stuff is to learn. Should I just take the 24 week boot camp and not be so stressed out by doing a 12 week boot camp ? [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Upset and demotivated/ graohQl flutter and mongoDB Posted: 05 Mar 2022 09:12 AM PST I'm a flutter developer dart and flutter have been my very first programming language/ framework I have always wanted to make my own dating app it's just been one of my goals like I can't describe having people use something I built ! Have people appreciate what I built! It's such a personal milestone so I worked on it I started to make it with firebase firestore but the awful querying limitations and read / write cost make me cage my creativity and I hated it especially since the kinda querying I wanted was not possible on firestore I was very upset and demotivated then I read about mongoDB and people on Reddit told me how it's really good and it doesn't have read / write instantly I was interested searching on YouTube made me feel so intimidated because they kept talking about server. Local host and so much more I felt scared because like I said dart and flutter is my first language and framework I felt upset but I kept searching then I found a course by Paulo about GRAPHQL + Flutter + mongoDB I couldn't be more happy I learned it and finished it today actually but other than basic CRUD operations I feel lost I don't know how to do querying like I wanted I don't know how to use subscriptions with graphQL I feel so lost I tried searching on YouTube but their syntax is so different than mine that I feel scared the way paulo tought me to make mutation is like const mutation = new GraphQLObjectType{ type: …, args: … resolve:(parent,arg)… so on But none of the YouTube is using this syntax I don't know how I'm even gonna use subscriptions with mongoDB I don't even know why graphQL can be used with mongoDB when mongo already has strong querying at least that's what I was told all in all I'm very disappointed in my myself and in my skills if there is anyone that can help me and guide me I honestly wouldn't ask for more [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| How do you recommend I build a user interface for my database? Posted: 05 Mar 2022 09:09 AM PST At the company I work at we have an excel table that lists all the startups we are working with or have worked with in the past. We're interested in building a more user-friendly way to access that information that requires no technical skills to use. Every row of the table contains the name of a startup and the project they're working in, but there are projects with multiple startups involved and there are startups working on multiple different projects. We wanted to be able to group that information as necessary. This is a simplified version of the input table:
This is what I want the user to see if the user chooses to "view by Startup":
This is what I want the user to see if the user chooses to "view by Project":
We also need to implement filters and a "search by field" option. I have a decent amount of experience with Python and I recently started learning Javascript, HTML, and CSS. What do you guys think would be the best way of going about this project? We're also interested in being able to generate reports from this data. I guess it would make more sense to use a different solution like Power BI for that, but if a "generate report" feature is viable that would be perfect.

| What is the importance of MATLAB for an engineer? Posted: 05 Mar 2022 03:34 AM PST It's my first year at college studying control engineering. I got a C programming class rn and I am also busy with game dev. A student club offers a free MATLAB fundamentals course which will last 3 weeks. Is it necessary right now when I am dealing with so many things already or should I take the chance? Also, I wonder what y'all think about the question in the title.

| What projects to make and show for Python employment? Posted: 05 Mar 2022 01:05 PM PST Hello all, I am trying to get a job as a Python Developer. I don't consider myself a beginner anymore, I am comfortable with the syntax. I also did a tutorial on pygame just for fun and extra knowledge, and managed to create a small game (It's in my profile if you'd like to see, it's not complete yet though).. One of the projects that I could create with pygame would be a vizualizer of a sorting algorithm. How many projects does one need to have in github for employment? I have no experience or degree. I am 100% self taught. What else should I build? I am confused. Maybe a Password generator? Thank you! [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 12:45 PM PST Hello, I am trying to plan out and prototype an idea for a Windows program I want to build that will play animated alerts on top of the user's program with sound. The inspiration is to try and create an alternate to Windows' built-in toast notifications that are more satisfying to receive than what we actually have in Windows 10. My problem is that UI design and development is my definite weakness. The vast majority of my experience in UI development comes in messing with Angular and messing with WinForms to prototype portions of my backend development. I come from experience in primarily backend development, databases, processes, services, and the like. I would say that 70% of my experience is with C# and data-driven development with the next biggest experience being in using JS/HTML/CSS together in Angular for some web apps I have built. I know very little about UI design and so I only know about the following options as far as graphical development with C#:
And then I know options such as Electron exist that can use HTML,CSS,and JS to build out a desktop application. So, I was hoping to ask on here and get opinions. My ultimate end goal that you can picture I'm trying to reach is being able to turn off the Windows 10 notifications and have a program that pops up when I get a new achievement in a game and gives a more satisfying notification pop up (think the Xbox 360 bleep bloop). Knowing when achievements are received is already handled and working - I just need to work on making them look nice when they pop up What do you all think would be the best route to go for something like this?

| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 08:59 AM PST So I'm currently a sophomore in hs and thinking of using the CS curriculum in Open Source Society University but I've seen that it requires calc but my school won't allow me to take it until my senior year, so can I just skip the math part. I'm currently taking CS50 and am almost done with it. Would it be fine or do you recommend me to go with a different curriculum? [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 03:47 AM PST Like the title says, is this possible? It feels like im getting messed with. How am I for example suppose to call functions without rendering new views? One view is linked to one function in the controller. Shouldn't it be possible without rendering new views to call this? OR: Is it possible to 1. ahref = functionview.php, but not to call it? or 2. Render a view in a view? is this possible? so I click on a button, and the functionview.php is rendered in a nested area? [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 05 Mar 2022 04:57 AM PST Hey strangers, I just wanted to share with you my last 6 months journey with programming. Basically I started University in Italy (managment engineering) and in my first semester I had to take one of the biggest exams here for this degree: programming fundamentals and data structures + algorithms. The first weeks were awful, like really awful. Coming from a background of no tech, I did not understand a SINGLE LECTURE the first month. I had to study a lot, like a lot (5+ hours a day just for this course). However, months kept passing and I noticed that I was getting in the programming mindset more and more, and I was able to understand things. Damn I remember the pointer lecture, I was so lost xD. Now I'm pretty confident at writing kinda big programs (my exam was a program to write in 2 hours and it ended up being a 1 000 lines program, and I aced it!!!), and I hope this will be helpful in the future :D cheers [link] [comments] |
