Assuming I lock myself in my bedroom and work on learning programming every waking hour of my life, how long would it take for me to be at an employable level of competence? For the sake of convenience let's say I want to be employed as a backend web developer.
Is this a possibility at all for a non-STEM non CS major at all? I'm assuming at least some of you had to have experienced or done something similar. Tell me your success stories, employed folk of /g/
Off yourself.

Why is this the greatest phone of all time? Android N and 3Ah LG G2 battery, here we come...
>>54615843
Did you actually manage to fit the G2 battery in the phone? I thought this was debunked since the battery is just slightly larger.
>>54616182
I haven't done it yet but it requires dremeling a rib on the inside of the case to make it fit
Get cucked faggot.
8 hours of screen time, with 4g and wifi on, and 44% still left

Making a commercial for facebook does facebook support 50 fps video´s? What fps does fb support?
Fb supports 30fps max. Also, don't encode it, as Fb will encode it again anyway.
It's a similar process to YT, but the encoding done by Fb is far worse. Since most people there don't watch the vids in fullscreen it won't matter that much anyway.

>Fb supports 30fps max. Also, don't encode it, as Fb will encode it again anyway.
you probably want to encode it a bit unless you have the internet to upload that amount of uncompressed video

Who the fuck uses 50 fps videos you spaz?
>People who make computer viruses are all supporters and users of free software and do it out of spite at Microsoft's imperialism. That's why Apple can't be infcted
A refutation and beating later another dude says
>Well you can make viruses for Mac but they are so hard to make they aren't worth the effort
I share a room with these people. By the way, they are not liberals, neither do they study political "sciences". But they are "tech savvy". one thinks Apple is the big shit

What happens to the information that you delete from the recycle bin?
disappear?
>>54615296
it is marked as free space
if the file is small there is good chance if you dump the free space from your hard drive, that you actually can recover the file.
>>54615296
>doesnt know what C:\RECYCLER\* is
the same that happens to every file that is deleted from your disk, their inodes are marked as free

It's not a public event, but the stock price is going straight up, so it must be good news.
What's /g/ opinion about bittorrent sync?
Is it secure enough to use it to share stuff that may or may not be illegal?
>>54615119
Syncthing
>>54615344
Any more than just the name?
OK, its FOSS, but else?
Seems like the "discovery" part needs an external server, not sure what to think about that. But then on the other hand, without one, you'd need a second channel, to inform your machines about their respective IPs, so its kinda necessary.
>>54615119
Proprietary software that takes a super useful idea and wraps it behind encryption and networking that I have no reason to trust.
Just use syncthing.
