I've always been absolutely infatuated with programming and software development, but I'm massively held back by ADHD, my mind wanders as soon as I attempt to sit down and learn a language.
I understand the core concepts of programming and have a pretty strong understanding of the theory behind it (things like the layers of abstraction between code to execution etc). But where I struggle is the practical, I seem to work on the micro scale, focusing on finicky details while struggling to overview the whole method, function, class, program.
I've...

You can't focus on programming because on a subconscious level you know that it's a waste of time that won't benefit you in any way.

I have autism too. All I do is post static webms all day long on /g/. It's that bad.
>>55068190
OP, are you me? I have this exact same problem.
>[SOLVED]
>problem is not solved
>>55068175
It is, You just cant move on.
>>55068175
Webms support transparency btw, just open it in Chrome or Opera.

Hey, faggot. The project is open source, if you think it's not fixed, you can just fork the repo and fix it yourself! Faggot.
I need a very reliable drive for mass storage. Any recommendations? I need atleast 4TB. Need internal.
Also, can someone explain western digital hdd color codes to me in the medium of memes?
>>55068126
WD blue is normie tier. Good for anything
WD black is for tryhards. Tries to be an SSD but isn't
WD red is for server people. Meant for RAID
WD green is grandpa speed for super cheap. Good for movies/videos, not good for games
WD purple is meme-tier. I guess it's for porn producers.
>>55068126
Get WD green, unless you play vidya
Hey /g/
R8 my homescreen /10 and post your homescreen if you want

Makifags need to leave.

Makifags need to be round up and gassed after being subjected to watching normie films.

Not really a new thing. I've been using erasers on PCI cards for years. Use it on any contact tabs to fix odd issues.
Good job, buddy.
>>55068398
I've used legit contact cleaner, haven't heard if using erasers before. Does using an eraser last for only a short time or am I jewing myself
Apple is a joke.
>>55067961
You came here and made a thread just to say? Like no one on this board know this?
>>55068007
/g/ is majority pro Apple

I think changing OS name to macOS is pretty revolutionary.
How many revolutionary things have you done lately? Thought so.
With all these threads on the gtx1080 and rx480, It's like the new APU lineup is being ignored completely.
You're getting a more efficient and faster cpu, and a killer igpu at a fantastic price. Why isn't this more popular?
>>55067856
Because it's extremely niche. An APU says, "I didn't have the $20 needed to get 3x more performance so I settled for this instead."
>>55067856
>>55067879
>$20
>3x performance
a8 7600 is A$108 right now. i3 + gt730 is $250.
for roughly same overall performance.
What are the skills that separate the men from the boys in programming?

Men can tell the function a program without an explanation and just raw code
Let's take a moment to celebrate the career of Woz (aka The More Likeable of the Two Steves).
>>55067686
Woz is based. He should replace rms in the sticky.
>>55068130
Should I make a static webm of him?
>>55067686
What would Woz do if he was back at Apple? Would they be making cool shit again?

Why doesn't everyone just run OpenBSD? It takes literally a minute to install and runs on anything.
>>55067641
>OpenBSD is so great
>Why isn't everyone using me
>Using it in a VM with Windows as your actual OS
I don't know OP, why aren't you using it?
I do on my laptop, it's great
>>55067667
What hardware? I want to install OpenBSD on my laptop, but I did my research and it doesn't seem to have WiFi drivers for it.
Any good free video editing softwares for Windows? Been using piece of shit movie maker and anything else I check is sketchy as fuck.
Lightworks or Davinci Resolve.

Blender. If you can't handle that after a few youtube tutorials then just hang yourself.

Okay, /g/ after 3 broken installations, and four hours searching for solutions, I have come to you. I'm trying to install nvidia drivers for my gtx 960 on my ubuntu 16.04 distro.
I went through the regular channels with the additional drivers software that comes with it. It tells me to download the 361 driver. I install it, I reboot, and the entire distro is fucked. Black screen with blinking cursor that won't accept any input. Why is nvidia widening my anus? Pic related.
>regular channels
there is your problem
>>55067527
The Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display doesn't have this problem.

Side note, anyone know what this unknown is?
IT'S HAPPENING
Elementary OS released a new beta!
https://elementary.io/developer
And it was released on the same day as Apple's WWDC!
WHAT A COINSIDENCE
Why is this shit still in beta? Seriously I kind of forgot it even existed, but I first heard about it and tried it like 4 or 5 years ago.
>>55067431
They had a stable release around 5 years ago. This is their first public beta since then.
What does one thing have to do with the other? Did OS X get a new version?
