Studying for Network+ in Community College right now
Everyone of my colleagues laughs at A+ cert, also saying that an employer expects that you've done shit with that cert unlike Network+
Sorta having a hard time believing that for Net+. Is getting a job easier with just having the Network+ Cert or is it all the same?

Copper moves heat better but you need a higher cfm fan to cool it because they tend to hang onto the heat they accumulate

What's your excuse for not being a Machine Learning / Deep Learning programmer?
Now that you saw what Deep Mind / AlphaGo did, you have no excuses anymore
You see AI IS THE FUTURE so why not abandon that shitty Facbook app game smartphone clicker Flappy Bird FarmVille shit you're working on which will be of no consequence and start learning AI ?
It's not that hard.
1. Quickly learn Python first.
2. Take a course of AI and Machine learning (several online courses are there). You can try MIT OCW also.
3. Then start with...

Imagine developing INTELLIGENT programs... isn't it better than making jQuery resizable boxes LOL ?
It always makes me chuckle that AI programmers are trying to program themselves out of a job.
Once it is nailed down, they'll be replaced by what they designed.
Personally, I think AI in a broad scope is a pipe dream, it's an overrated reality that people have turned into a buzzword.
>>53470742
This is true. The last programming language will be English.
In the not too distant future, we'll be able to program using English.
This is coming soon.
Sure, some will still use ASM, C, etc. buit that will be just for low level stuff
Lot of stuff will be done in english

I finally understand why Drake hates Linux so much. All the apps feel cheaply made with absolutely zero attention to detail and aesthetics, you need a command line to get work done because the apps require a million other dependencies, and then the fonts are horrible and you have to hope and pray that infinality works for you. Never again.
>Linux
You have to admit GNU/Linux is a great server OS though.

In Linux if you don't use the shell for everything you are a nigg.. oh wait, that explains your complains...

REMOVE ROBOT
He lost 3/4 times though.
>>53469274
Him losing was the expected result, he was he underdog from the beginning. The fact that he made a supercomputer go "I dunno lol" AT ALL is an impressive feat, although it's equally impressive that there exists an AI that knows when to admit defeat. Good showing on both sides.
I've been working with SAP for the last 3 months after learning from a start-up firm ABAP programming.
Does anybody here also work with SAP and knows how much the salary for a programmer should be?
Since i have no idea where to ask i'm asking here.
>>53468986
SAP pays good money only if you are employed as "software engineer" and work in a running product like HANA.
My friend works there and says his salary is pretty good.
You should get more than 50k unless you are Poo man from India who get not more than 11k for freshers.
Shameful bump
>>53468986
SAP was pretty much indian in 2005
Not sure what the situation is now
Why are Russians so good at programming?
They're in Russia. There aren't a lot of choices in terms of activities. They take that shit seriously in that sense, some Russians don't even have computers so they'll program on paper and refine whatever they're working on, then compile once they get to a machine.
>>53468866
They're good out of necessity, so they can get hired by a foreign company in order to flee from their shithole, no-future country ASAP

Forget Java. Which is a better language, C# or Kotlin? Which do you like more, /g/?
>tfw declaration-type variance
Feels nice.
Scala
>>53468739
If they opened it and .NET from the start, C# would be #1 language today.
>>53469098
this. Kotlin looks nice but it runs on the JVM.
