If only it wasn't horribly slow

Except SJW faggots don't code. They learn enough code to make a Hello, World. Then they become contributors with the sole intent of destroying them from the inside

OS programming doesn't represent the majority of programming. You'll see a lot of awful shit in Kernel code that would otherwise be unacceptable.

SJWs are worse. Because they can't be easily dismissed without an incident.

Freudian slip

I don't see how they can drop it after it's been integrated into their core platform

That's fair. Java sucks. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have applications

Exactly. That's why I think beginners are better off jumping right in to learning Java and skipping Python

To a point, I think Python is the new basic. Even though I am not a huge fan of Java, I think it is better to start learning.

A. It has direct application in one of the fastest growing sectors: app development

B. It's syntax is similar enough to many, many languages which are also descendants of C meaning you can pick up C, C++, C# and many other languages without too much difficulty. The transition from Python to C-like languages is NOT that smooth.

onlineCount = (Math.floor(Math.random()*(5000-3000+1)+3000))

I'm going to have to take that with a big grain of salt then. Don't get me wrong, but I can't just believe every claim made on the internet. It doesn't make any sense since the EFF is against censorship. And Anita Skank is pro censorship

Source please? First I've heard this. She seems completely against their ideals

The EFF is on point again. I should donate to them again

Another will try to replace it, unfortunately. It'll be an ongoing battle

...then you'll be stuck in a shitty environment. How is that a good solution?

He expressed interest before? I started programming at 12

How old is she?

How old is your kid?

It would still be noticed pretty quickly I would think. Besides secretly changing code and having it functional would be a LOT more effort then secretly changing comments

& and | ate particularly bad because sometimes they'll work and sometimes they won't depending on the bits involved

It would probably take 10 years to become a good programmer. But you can become an okay programmer in less than a year

Upper. lowercase looks wrong

That isn't that uncommon. Even modern microcontrollers (for example AVR and PIC) have similar specs. It's all about code efficiency.

Stupid article. Even if you don't plan to get a programming job, it is still worth knowing some code. For example if you want to be automate some batch job or you need a quick n dirty custom program for whatever reason. Besides learning to code will actually improve your logical thinking skills. IOW there are plenty of reason to know how to code besides seeking a programming job. You don't need to go to any "bootcamp" either .. it is very possible to learn yourself

Why does /u/roznak keep posting so much anti-programming stuff in this sub all the time? It is hardly relevant to /v/programming and I have gotten to the point where I just about automatically downvote it.

Most programmers are just cogs in a machine that write boring apps to support boring companies.

This isn't unique to programming. In fact it is the case for nearly every job

There is the possibility she is trolling.

what did you graduate in?

technically in the USA it's a felony.

Source?

And yet people wonder why I don't trust Canonical. Ubuntu is one Linux distro I can no longer recommend

Actually alcohol is normal consumption quantities doesn't really kill brain cells. It just temporarily slows their growth

Who honestly need money the most

Extremely shitty coding

In private, mind you. It isn't like Mozilla itself had an official stance on the matter

Fake how? Shit title.

It is very buggy though

The tweets praising "her" are disgusting

It doesn't work.

Javascript is having problems accessing your microphone

I am using Pale Moon

Programmers Notepad is what I use on Windows. Otherwise Vim

Bugs in GlibC are pretty gnarly because it is a non-trivial update and it could be a while before it is deployed widely

You don't even want to know how many exploits are in closed source software. They just aren't published when they are found

Or perhaps the women that create femaleish profiles are bad programmers? There are a lot of factors that can be at work. That doesn't automatically make it gender bias

Visual Studio is free now,

Subjectively speaking, I would GCC is overall a better compiler. And coding for GCC makes your code easier to port since it is supported on just about every platform

More "python is best and easiest" garbage. Honestly, Python sucks. The syntax is awkward an unpleasant and relatively speaking, it is quite slow. Coming from a background of C, Python is anything but easy to learn. I don't really know how it would be for a new programmer but I wouldn't say 1/5 difficulty sounds right

My personal opinion on Java: it sucks

But from a job market perspective, it is still a strong player. While it has lost the web market, it is still the core language for Android apps and has a decent embedded market

There is an emulator for the hardware here: http://www.ibiblio.org/apollo/

Haven't tested it though

Assembly. Basically mnemonics for machine code

What are significant digits.

Basically digits that are considered to be meaningful or valid

That's the problem. They cause good projects to die

Except for the fact that SOMEHOW this shit keeps getting adopted. Somehow fat bitches let Randy Harper find their way to poison otherwise good projects with this shit. The part about permitting racism against white people and sexism against males has to take the cake for inexcusable BS hypocrisy.

edit: most of this article is fascist garbage, I'd take it all with a pinch of salt

I see "C" what you mean. The never use this, never use that garbage.

Every tool has it's uses and you should use the tools available to you where appropriate

How can use of an imaginary and virtually infinite resource (lazily allocated address space) be “excessive”?

Doesn't it hurt memory operation time?

They won't tell you anything about the job until you take the test.

That information should always been upfront

Requiring an extra DLL for every built app is undesirable

I don't think GCC itself is much slower on windows. Process creation time is crushingly slow on windows. *Nix has fork which is quite fast

Just like in humans, the bloat spreads like a disease. I hate modern web design with passion

This is why I fucking hate what the police have been allowed to become. Accountability is CRITICAL. Without it, they are nothing more than a street gang

The reasons to say "fuck chrome" are constantly piling up

It's completely a rip off because of monopoly private cert companies

This sub covers various topics on programming. And yes, help with specific programming problems are okay here. It's a small sub anyway

I am surprised from Yahoo

The keyboard is mightier than the mouse

I know a lot of websites use Python back ends but it still seems high

I don't believe those will prevent Chrome from tracking you. Just advertisers.

1) read and change all my data on the websites i visit,

This by definition is necessary to block advertisements. It blocks known ad servers and collapses their placeholders hence changing the page

Yes, you can leave comments. It is still much harder to follow ASM logic.

A long list of simple operations becomes quickly overwhelming for a human viewer.

With the trade off of it being much harder to read and debug and unportable.

I'll take the speed hit of higher level languages to have easier to maintain code myself.

Gnome is not a good example. It sucks pretty hard and it has for a while.

Another thing: many open source developers are NOT working for free. The developers on large projects are often supported by corporations. And smaller projects usually receive donations.

There are plenty of long standing bugs in Windows. They have existed since Windows XP or 2000 and still affect 7 (and probably 8)

Yet, Microsoft certainly makes fancy UI changes while not fixing bugs

Except this happens in lots of software. Including Windows

Here is a link of where it happened to a guy here on Voat: https://voat.co/v/news/comments/411192/1795598

I'll see if I can dig up more examples if I have time

edit: Not only can you get raided by police for what you post online, but they often often fuck up: http://www.cnet.com/news/police-intercept-online-threat-raid-wrong-house/

I removed my downvote

It wasn't GitHub. It was the Chinese goverment

Say what you will about America, but at least we don't have the police coming to our homes and telling us to stop talking about certain things.

Actually it has happened already

I kind of hope they do get sued. Just to show what happens when you listen to the idiocy of brain dead SJWs

They can't. That's why they have few to no actual code contributions to the project. They usually just get in the way and slower things down.

Nope.

Sourceforge is marginal at best. I keep hearing about malware injection in the installers although I have not actually encountered it in a long time. Still, there site is turning trashier and trashier. Not my first choice.

Bitbucket is better but they are also bowing to SJW bullshit

Googlecode is shut down

I am a strong believer that the political spectrum is circular. Extremists on either side of the spectrum are authoritarian

That policy sounds like discrimination to me.

That's exactly what it is

It shouldn't need to be this way. Why can't people just treat eachother fairly through our differences? Racism and sexism are bad but it's no better if it's against white males.

Our open source community prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over privileged people’s comfort. We will not act on complaints regarding:

‘Reverse’ -isms, including ‘reverse racism,’ ‘reverse sexism,’ and ‘cisphobia’

Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you”

Refusal to explain or debate social justice concepts

Communicating in a ‘tone’ you don’t find congenial

Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions

This looks like they are basically admitting to being SJWs and don't ask them to explain their logic because they ain't got any.

SJWs once again prove that they have zero sense. Of course all these dumb ass rules are actually oppressing people. Their hypocrisy is laughable

So, to GitHub, the words "hug", "touch", and anything to do with contact, are banned without consent.

What the fuck?

Because obviously touching somebody = rape and talking about hugging is inciting rape.

This doesn't just apply to programmers. Most of the voaters are constrained to a few big subs which is inhibiting growth of smaller subs. Please spread out if you can.

The atmosphere at SO is very hostile. If you don't comply with their practices, you will get downvoted to hell. It is a helpful site sometimes, but pretty much for viewing and not participation.
