Hi /g/, long time lurker, first time OP here
I'm a third year computer science student. I've had C, C++, Java and Visual Basic, and now I want to learn Python. I have a few basic questions:
How hard would Python be to learn for someone with my (almost entirely OOP) background?
What compiler would /g/ recommend?
I'm *leaning* towards a bachelor specialty/masters in cybersecurity. Is it true that Python would be a very valuable language to learn for that field?
Is it a useful language to become proficient in, from a career/job skills perspective?
Does Python have a "preferred operating system", i.e. an OS that most of its programming is done for?
Thanks
Python can be learned in 2 hours.

that's your problem

Managers are shitty.
>hurr durr we need to hire the best people do the job I'm suppose to do.
fucking faggot shits.
I love when this type of shit happens OP, and then a day IT quits and everyone is worse off than before.
How can anyone be hired for their skill in html/css?
It only takes a day to learn.
Hey, /g/.

Ok well I missed last weeks lab that has to do with this assignment, and I can't make it up until tomorrow, the same day this assignment is due.
Willing to pay up to $25 PayPal for someone to write this code for me.
It's C++ beginner college freshman level.
Email me at [email protected]
Here is the assignment. Email me for the details, rules/sample run.
i saw this guy post in /b/ too
infact i still have it open, pic related

Wow. Does anybody proofread this shit?????
Let's pretend to be in a startup company.
i quit, boss
let's do another kickstarter so the goyim can give us free capital
only if i get to use the latest hipster language/framework of the week that'll lose all backwards compatibility in the very next version
Didn't see one, didn't scroll half way down the page, didn't refresh once.
I've tried out gpaint on ganoo linux but it doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for, is there a different lightweight image editing program I can use that will allow me to dynamically change canvas size like in ms paint? Or should I just use paint under Wine?
Also I wasn't a huge fan of i3, would dwm or awesome be worth a shot?

I sort of had this problem years ago when I hopped onto my first distro. I eventually gave up and went with editing (even really small things) via GIMP or Krita. There is this one program, Kolourpaint, which at first seemed like a carbon copy of paint, and it is, the only problem is that it screws up with text. Give it a try and see what I mean, or stick with GIMP/Krita for your basic editing needs. It's over kill, I know, but I didn't find anything else.

What is the best media player program for windows? I am currently using VLC to watch my videos.
I just want a better video player than VLC.

What's the best linux command?
>>45086395
Split between ls and cd. I do those all the time.

Hey /g/, I'm not very tech inclined and I thought you might explain something to me. Sorry if this is considered shitposting here.
I get that when you delete something from a hard drive it's not really deleted, just that the space is made available for writing over. And I get that to scrub a hard drive you have to write over all this "free" space with nonsense so that nothing is recoverable. But I don't get why multiple passes are required to wipe a drive: why does one pass of writing bullshit over "deleted" data not make said data unrecoverable?
Thanks.
>>45076682
> why does one pass of writing bullshit over "deleted" data not make said data unrecoverable?
It does. You need a lot of equipment, time and money to recover that data.
>>45076724
But why do multiple passes make it harder? Why isn't once over and it's gone forever?

How would you rewrite it, /g/?

Now fuck off with your shit
Bloated as fuck. There's no reason to use C++ if you're not going to use objects.
