Honestly, I would love to find someone... ANYONE... near me that would like to talk about stuff they're building. I'm working on a C++ http client & server library from scratch (planning to support http 1.1, 2 and 3, while mos

This is how I feel about C++. It's enjoyable to use! I'm happy to use Python or JavaScript or something else when appropriate, but coming back to C++ is like sitting on your porch, enjoying a cool breeze and the relaxing after a

I use inotifywait with make for a similar effect. I save a source file and my code is re-compiled and tests are run. I love it!

I'm a Data Architect at my day job and I have a PhD in CS. Database jobs are all over the map, and so it probably depends on which part of the industry you end up in. I know some database people who only do Oracle and PLSQL. I know o

Honestly, it sounds like depression. Talk to a counselor. As a secondary observation, it seems as though that you lack responsibility. Accepting responsibility is what gives you a sense of purpose, regularity, and fulfillment. Responsibi

There's no single answer to this. 1. You can try searching online to see if anyone has done something similar (or even remotely related), and then experiment from there. 2. Contact the respective companies behind the software to see if

I am forever grateful for Turbo Pascal. In the 90's, I had no Internet. The library (neither school nor public) had no programming books. My high school had no CS/programming classes. The computer class (word processor/spr

"What normal user has millions of typical data laying around?" Enough that this policy is impacting some of them. Again, realize that this isn't just talking about free accounts. It's paid accounts, too, regardless of t

Really? Then you lack imagination! Google Drive is a backup solution. I can think of a lot of reasons to have a lot of small files, whether they be for logging purposes, analysis, training data, etc. In fact, I can think of more legit use

I know that the pronunciation for this is all nonstandard and "wrong", and I still love it! So much so that I bought the ghoti.io domain name, and I'm currently writing a collection of C++ libraries under the collective proj

From wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_conditional_operator , originally from CPL in the early 1960s. A cursory internet search doesn't yield much else, though, so you would probably have to intervi

Thank you for your reply. I honestly thought that this question would get more traction, but I guess it got buried. I'm not familiar with ArangoDB, but I'm always skittish around products that won't come out and state their

For me, it's not just an "underline" issue. In my case, it's a "thin line" issue, and letters are usually made up of thin lines, especially the monospace font used here. But that's just me. (Side note:

Build things. Build BIG things! Most programmers never have to build anything big or complicated. After you've done it a few times, and having to refactor parts of your code because you designed it poorly, then you start figuring out

I didn't even realize that the red/green was present until you mentioned it! I do actually perceive it, now that you draw attention to its existence, and can tell the difference, but you are correct: thin lines are aggravating to

Coming up with ideas is a habit. Once you start doing it, it's impossible to shut off, trust me! 1. Learn to be discontent. You aren't seeing ideas because you are content with the status quo. You need to be in the habit of thi

Hard to debate this with proven facts, from either side. Opinion? I have no idea. It depends on how you (or I, or someone else) defines or interprets "free will", "requirement", or "consciousness", and whethe

Thank you! I have been looking for this website for years! I remember it from so long ago, and then I couldn't find it again. I was even telling someone about it the other day. You actually made my day by posting this! LOL

I build things that I don't know how to build, mostly in C++ (because I like the language and I want to get better at it, especially the newer parts!). I built a programming language as a library and put the entire process on YouTube.

So? Would you rather: A. This person work on a job, earn money, and pay their own expenses, or B. Be cancelled (which will not change their opinion... in fact, it will probably strengthen it!) and have them rely on government handouts (i.e.

Actually, I didn't know about the site, so I'm glad that the comment was posted. It seems like a great resource for project idea prompts that can be taken, modified/customized/generalized/specialized into something

First, I want to say that this article was horrendous to read. I gave up on it when it hijacked the scroll. I drive a Silverado Truck, 4-door. Why? Because when I go places, if someone else is with me, they are an adult, and so I got a v

Loved the book. Inspired me to create my own language (definitely not a copy, though), and put the whole experience on YouTube. (Playlist link in my profile.) Technically, I had already written a language twice, but this book convinced m

Well, the Anarchist Cookbook ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Anarchist_Cookbook ) was deemed legal here in the US. Then again, you didn't ask about legality, but liability, and, here in the US, anybody can sue
