What are you working on, /g/?
First for Java
Master's degree in computer science.
Calculator now supports 7 background colors and 2 keyboard colors, I plan to put 10 different colors on both.
Then I will move to the landscape mode with more functions, shit will get real.

You aren't going to get a job at Google unless you have a real degree or a really amazing portfolio (like you wrote your own complete OS/kernel from scratch that's actually somewhat useable on a daily basis).
For regular programming jobs just bullshit about your work history and you'll be fine.
>>51928310
I've been "professional" for almost 4 years now. I'm out of a junior role and now a full developer. Switched companies, and I'm helping my current move to git version control from _nothing_.
Issue is I don't have a degree. Job hunting without one is a huge pain. Getting one is a bigger pain -_-'
Neat. I haven't slept a wink and my shell script solution to one of those advent puzzles looks like it might be lisp to my tired eyes.#!/usr/bin/fish

echo "Part 1:"\
(math (wc -c input | sed "s/ .*\$//") -\

Really? If you have 4 years experience then most companies will at least look at your resume. Companies need programmers pretty badly still. Most don't care about degrees, except obviously places like Google/Facebook/etc.
A lot of start-ups don't care about formal education, too. If you moved to CA you'd have a dozen jobs lined up within a week.

I've actually interviewed at a lot of startups. I just don't know ruby/javascript at all (which seems like the only languages they hire for). Most my work is embedded C or high speed Data Acquition applications. So I'd feel completely out of my element in an app/web roll.

If you know C you can literally learn Javascript in a day. Most places don't write Ruby, they write Ruby on Rails which is a scripting language for children, and trivially learnable in a few hours. Memorize a list of 2015 tech buzzwords and you'll be fine.

>>51928507
I'd do something different, but your way is simpler and easier to read/query.
I'd make a table specifically for Client ID's, then use each as a foreign key in several other tables of data that were grouped based on relevance to each other. (So things like Residence, Name/title, Payment_Options, etc would share their own tables. Address, City, State would be in residence, etc.)

Thanks your input
Your way seems more complicated, but has the advantage of being more normalized and compartmentalized.client_information = db.Table('client_information',
db.Column('client_id', db.Integer(), db.ForeignKey('client.id')),
db.Column('residence_id', db.Integer(), db.ForeignKey('residence.id')),
)
class Client(db.Model):
id = db.Column(db.String, primary_key=True, default=generate_short_id)
class Residence(db.Model):
id = db.Column(db.String, primary_key=True, default=generate_short_id)
address = db.Column(db.String)
city = db.Column(db.String)
state = db.Column(db.String)
>>51928679
Are you doing this for a personal project or are you doing this for your work? If it's not a personal project ask your department head or somebody about what they'd like.
If this is your own app or whatever then obviously go nuts, format it however you want.
>>51928592
Yes. Unity is literally drag 'n' drop for babies. No serious dev uses Unity. Write your own engine, in C or C++.
>>51928735
Yes, serious game developers start an entire game engine from scratch and use no tools whatsoever.
what happens if your function uses like 4 cache lines worth of variables? does it turn performance to shit?
>>51928733
In my personal experience though, it's a lot better to compartmentalize. Having user, then all their data in one area seems odd to me, but if that's how you want to do it then do that. SQL database formatting is mostly a matter of taste, just usually you have to tailor it to other people's taste rather than your own.
>>51928592
Yes
Use unreal engine.
>>51928669
Actually I'm huezillian.
>>51928507
Shit, son.
Build your DB in something like SSMS or Workbench and manipulate with code.
one-to-one on personal info is fine, but you might as well just include the information within the client table.
>>51928592
Unity is fantastic. Very easy to use, or you can go elbow deep.
Main pro is that is runs on fucking everything.
>>51928592
yes. unity isn't even any good. you're literally better off making your own engine because unity really doesn't bring much to the table. the few examples that unity shills bring up as "good" still have a ton of custom code and may as well have been developed using another engine. at least use something less shitty or fuck off to >>>/vg/agdg

I'm looking to make a graphical roguelike, something like IVAN (pic related). I've been looking at libgdx because I've got Java experience but saw that Unity has a pretty comprehensive roguelike specific tutorial. Would using Unity teach me about C# or is it too hand-holdy to learn anything useful?
>>51928805
i'm calling it 3 times per frame and the function does 40+ iterations each time (or more if i can get away with it, but it's not really necessary to do more than that) on mobile devices (i may have to drop armv5 support because no FPU)

That is the proper way to do it relationally, and you should probably follow that.
It might seem like it's easier to query in the first place, but it will end up as a mess - and you will have a ton of redundant data that could lead to inaccuracies.

The main issue I had with learning C# through Unity is that Unity has very specific ways of doing things that don't at all apply to other stuff you'll code purely in C#. Like how you interact with other objects is a fucking mess I found in Unity because you always have to find them through some convoluted, and horribly slow, means, whereas in C# you can just access whatever you want very easily and directly.
Unity is great though.

>>51928807
You should format it however you find it easiest to update and manage, as well as to prepare data sets from.
With no other programmers breathing down your neck bitching about style preferences you should be golden so long as you lay out your db schema well. If your only tables are client and their details then you're pretty much set already
>>51928871
AND a faggot. Holy shit you're the trifecta of disappointment aren't you.
>>51928679
I'm pretty sure that doesn't establish a proper relation.
Should be something likeclientid = db.Column(db.Integer(), db.ForeignKey("client.id")
client_id = db.relationship("Client", foreign_keys= "[Residence.clientid]")
And then you query from there. Or the other way around, but that's how you establish relations with SQLAlchemy

>>51929432
Sure.
>>51928875
Yes. It is the recommended and correct way.
If you do it like this now, you won't have headaches in the future.
It is best practice for a reason.
You should, however, look into non-relational databases like mongodb if you want to keep a structure like this.

Apart from the fact that everyone involved around it seems to be hardcore socjus.
Then again, sadly everything is these days.

uh... why not? post code?
I am learning C++ and have a question that I cant seem to find the answer to.
Let say I want to pass a vector to a function or return one from a function.int main (int a, int b) {
whatever
}
That is a simple function with int in and out. But now I am looking for the syntax for when a vector is either coming in parameters or coming back. I found a little youtube vid using arrays as an input.int main (int my_Array[], int size_of_Array) {
shit
}
is what they used.
Anyone know the exact syntax of this in and out for vectors?

First fail I caused someone to slow down at a round about.
Second fail I hit the curb doing a parallel park.
Third fail I apparently hesitated too many times, this is the only fail I find questionable as there was no way I could have went without causing someone to slow down.
>>51930229
I was wondering about that but I watched someone bring an array in and they just used int my_array[].
I am hoping someone here actually does some c++ and knows what is up.

But I'm having fun. I feel I get enough hardcores out of doing my embedded stuff for uni and side projects.
>>51930167
Because the way XAML works it doesn't allow you to jump through data in that way, however modifying the way I accessed it seemed to work. Figured it out in the end.

anything fun to do with Assembly? It seems like an interesting language to work with.
Again I tried to read, process and write binary files in Python.
When, oh when, do I learn that Python simply isn't suitable for binary files? This is the fourth or fifth time (at least) I've done the same mistake over the years and *every* time it ends the same way: after wasting a few days worth of time, and trying to hack the thing left and right to just make it work around Python's binary gotchas, I get fed up and rewrite the whole thing from scratch in C++ and it only takes a few hours and the resulting program actually *works*. No hacks, no gotchas. It just works.
You have text? Python should do the job. You have binary? Run away from Python. No exceptions.
I don't know why I never learn.

I imagine a future where "websites" no longer need a complete fucking OS to behave properly (like any of them actually do do anything close to behaving). I want to see a browser that is intended for browsing documents that are served up by servers with minimal server-side styling. Most of that should be up to the client and their prerferences with maybe light suggestions from the server if the client doesn't care because ultimately what matters is the content.
http://gonmf.github.io/fwd/ seems like a really neat idea but it needs a little more for handling videos and images and there needs to be a way to transition into something interactive (running in a different, seprarate, program designed for handling interactive stuff)
The internet needs shopping spaces and forums and extragavant pieces of design and those can be handled by a different application for each. Aren't most basically implementing their own application in the browser as it is?
I just don't see myself getting a chance to work on this sort of stuff any time soon because it's not going to make money for quite a long time and I have missed my chance to do a research project on it.

I'm not looking to make something like a half life mod, I just want to make some simple enjoyable games for mobile that aren't full of micro-transactions, a game I can enjoy. So far I've gotten two useful pieces of advice, the rest was just pages worth of shitposting without saying why. I'm not entitled to an answer I know that, but I'd appreciate one. If I shit post about EA and someone asks why, I usually explain why EA is the videogame equivalent of Blackwater and Halliburton.

Friends,
Using python I want to filter down the source code of one of the 4chan frames webpages to extract and use a list of all of the boards on the website. People have recommended I use the 4chan api but I cannot get my head around the python wrapper for it on git.
Could anyone point me in the right direction for filtering, sorting and then printing the source from 4chan.org/frames_navigation? Even a nudge in the right direction would be great, I've only been learning python for a few days
Here's the source codehttp://pastebin.com/raw/1AZBZVQW
>>51931947
Use the APIs.
Create an object to store the data and then read the JSON elements into the objects.
>>51931976
I've spent a little while trying to get anything to work with the python wrapper but it doesn't come with any documentation and between the examples and the source code I can't figure it out :(
If I'm to do this the slow ignorant way I assume it'll be a for loop containing readline commands and if statements to check if the read line contains the information I'm looking for? If it does than save it into a new variable until I have everything I need then another for loop with if statements to then readline the var I created to further filter it down?
In C#, Whats a good way to display collections with multiple properties (columns) in a grid?
How can I do a two-dimensional array in Scratch? Want to program some shit up and I want to have that fucking cat grinning at me while I do it.
>>51932020
I've done this all in C# with C# libraries, so I'm not sure what Python is using, but parsing the HTML directly when APIs are available is just silly.

Thanks for sharing that code, didn't know about this syntax either.
>Is this GNU C?
yes: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnu-c-manual/gnu-c-manual.html#Initializing-Arrays
>What is this [0 ... (NR_LOCKS - 1)] syntax?
When using GNU extensions, you can initialize a range of elements to the same value, by specifying the first and last indices, in the form [first] ... [last] . Here is an example:
int new_array[100] = { [0 ... 9] = 1, [10 ... 98] = 2, 3 };
That initializes elements 0 through 9 to 1, elements 10 through 98 to 2, and element 99 to 3. (You also could explicitly write [99] = 3.) Also, notice that you must have spaces on both sides of the ‘...’.
>>51933318
>It still ask me for a shitty eclipse android because of libgdx.
No idea what that's supposed to mean.
Eclipse is shit. Stop using it.
>>51933282
From 0 to NR_LOCKS - 1, pretty much like list slices. Yes, this is a GNU C extension.
Anything good to read? I'm reading Turings "On computable numbers". Interested in the history of computer science.

Why does Linus use GNU C? Isn't Linux supposed to be portable? I really wouldn't expect him to use compiler-specific features.

Linux was never designed to be portable between compilers, though recently there's been some efforts to get the kernel to compile with Clang (which implements many GNU extensions itself).

recommended document storage (noSQL)?
Im free to use any database apparently
I made an optimizing brainfuck compiler for my virtual architecture.
http://pastebin.com/VGMS6Bgg
Stupid programming question that doesn't deserve it's own thread:
How are databases formatted in files?
I mean how does the data actually look like in the database file?
Is it just basically something like:
*header / metadata*
*table row1*
*table row2*
*table row3*
Or? Help a retard understand please.
>>51933768
The point I'm making is that it means different things to different people.
If the course is primarily database stuff and learning how to retrieve and modify data, then go for it.
If it's actual high-level data science math stuffs, it may not be in your wheelhouse, but also valuable to learn if you can.
>>51934077
It will almost certainly be encrypted, for one thing.
Program that loads up a list of .PST files and moves emails from certain users to a separate mailbox where they are kept indefinitely.
Uses multi-threading and pretty much every trick I can think of to make it fast.
Can't believe I get paid to dick about making stuff like that.
>>51933258
>Thinking of doing a MSc in machine learning and statistics. Worth the $40,000 debt?
Easily worth it, even if it did cost that much. But it shouldn't cost that much. What university are you looking at?
>>51933566
Go back to bed until you actually feel like trying.
>>51934077
Try it out.
>>51934077
Depends on the system.
In SQL Server, the data is stored in related 8KB page files. Depending on your fragmentation, the page files are usually not full, and are waiting for more data to be written in the right spot if there is a clustered index.
Here's an okay write up on SQL Server. Feel free to research each individual DBMS.

Anyone making something with websockets?
>>51934139
I made a file host.
>>51934139
I was under the impression that websockets were basically raw TCP sockets. That impression was smashed pretty quickly.
>>51934139
>>51934150
Oh don't worry, i thought you meant normal TCP or even UNIX sockets.
It seems WebSockets are a whole different thing.
I need an idea for a project idea that uses the web somehow.
I was thinking of a desktop google image search client but that feels pointless and autistic
Any ideas?
>>51934077
>How are databases formatted in files?
>I mean how does the data actually look like in the database file?
It depends on the format.
You can make any interface you want, local remote, sql (think BDB, CouchDB, SQL), and store it in flat text files if you feel like it. There are so very many ways to do it, but each has pros and cons.
If you really want to get into the nitty gritty of file formats, you need to go do a little basic C refresher on file input and output (not much, two hours will do probably), then start digging into file formats. Start small, and not with databases. Write your own code to read from and modify some early graphics formats like PPM/PBM. They're dead simple and probably good to start with. Then move to a few memory mapped file tutorials, and THEN start reading into how DB files are structured.

(Joke's on me, I just graduated from Kingston).
>>51934206
>UCL
Ahh. I'm not familiar with UK university rates at all ('muhrican). But It's definitely worth it. You can have a TON of fun with the programming projects in graduate machine learning courses.
Also, the coursera and other online courses are nowhere near as comprehensive as the grad courses... BUT blast through those a week or three before your grad course starts. That way when they bring up a new subject, it won't be new, and you'll be able to absorb it better. A little familiarity really does help not get overwhelmed by grad school. Or any school for that matter.
>>51934369
Will have, I'll out of uni for a few years now and I've never officially studied programming, although I do a lot in my spare time. It's the cost of living in London that jacks the price so much

The very few things that python was even useful for in the first place can be done better and easier in node.js. JS is infinitely more useful in the real world than python too, knowing JS makes you highly employable - who the fuck is looking for python programmers?
