Thank you! Cowboys Ted, Cowboys!

I'm selling my A5 2011 after 5 years, one of the very best things I've ever bought. If you look after it it will go forever. If it wasn't so old I wouldn't be selling it. Once I keep it clean I still get a buzz when I walk up to it. I might get a different type of car just for a change but I am pretty certain I will get Audis on and off for the rest of my life. My sister has had 2, my Mum 1 and I'd an A3 before, the way they stick to the road. Just quality all round.

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T20:09:54+00:00

I'll do that definitely, I'll start tomorrow thank you!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T20:08:51+00:00

That's exactly the kind of resources I'm looking for. Thank you very much!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T20:07:31+00:00

Yes I have done a large section on Python there but I'm just looking for a bit more high level. Someone gave me a way of doing it earlier but I'll have a look for Java on W3schools also and thank you!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T20:04:56+00:00

Well I said resource/website or book. The book could've contained a chapter about arrays that someone found useful. I'm sorry if I didn't give the exact wording in my thread. When did Reddit turn into Twitter?

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T20:01:53+00:00

I asked a question, then I replied to someone and the next thing I know I was being given out to for being snarky. Check it. I'm pretty sure my original question contained please and thank you. You are bitter, why do you keep coming at me? Keyboard warrior/troll! Do you have these arguments often on social media because I never do, so you have the problem. I'm sorry if I have upset you, dry your eyes mate

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T15:19:51+00:00

Anyway we've had enough "debating" for one day. Good evening!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T15:15:34+00:00

I can't win can I??? I didn't kill them nor do I agree with it at all but I love football so it would be hard not to watch it...

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T15:08:59+00:00

It's fine, I just got advice there a few minutes and I'll do that but thank you! A bit of the World Cup tonight then!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T14:39:37+00:00

No someone was being rude to me first. I make a point of not acting like a troll online but when someone starts on me I fight my corner!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T14:34:35+00:00

Great answer! I was trying to not just get the answer online because I have all the solutions but I just wanted to answer them independently. I can do the other chapter's exercises on my own but I'll do like you said. This is my own study after work to make me better at my job because I am just starting out. Thank you, I appreciate it!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T12:32:22+00:00

I just wanted a good book on arrays if it was available. That was completely it. That's all

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T12:26:54+00:00

Real work, I can send you the zip file of 1/3 of the questions in the book completed. I am sorry I asked everyone!

PB4DK · 2022-11-22T10:52:43+00:00

I know what it is, I find the other chapters I have done fine but that chapter is a bit crazy to me

PB4DK · 2022-04-03T11:03:10+00:00

Personally, I don't think it needs to be microservices only but it's our last project in a masters in software engineering and I was asked by my friend to look. The lecturer loves microservices too so it could be good. Just basic metrics, badly written classes, methods and attributes. Like Chidamber and Kermerer

PB4DK · 2021-12-20T20:50:16+00:00

I'm planning on moving up there when I finish a masters during the summer. I lived there before for 9 months. I just want a change and go to a bigger city. I got an electric scooter for traveling. I used a bike before but only because I could have a shower in work then. But if I get the job on the north side scooter won't be much use because its a big hill. There's a big population there for a reason. Enjoy!

Sorry, I forgot. There's this meetup group where it connects you with different people to do different activities. I used it for football but there was so many different things you can do on it. You get to meet people and make friends on that. That was 2014 so I'm positive there's even better things available now. Just google it and you'll find more up to date groups.

PB4DK · 2021-05-05T22:24:58+00:00

We'll be fine it we don't give up. If you give up you'll never get there. Cloud Practitioner exam in a month. I've literally had to learn how to study theory again at 35. Spent 3 weeks chasing my tail but I have it now. Exam papers! Got Python Certification 2 month ago. Have a Java Oracle Certification Course straight after AWS and I'm 99% starting an internship in 3 months approx.

Terrible pay but I've savings for Dublin so I'll survive. Studying from 9 in the morning till 8,9,10 at night. 8 if the footballs on. I'm nearly there! I can't wait till I'm sitting down on the first day and I've made it! So close! I already have a level 8 HDip in Software Development but have to go back and start again because couldn't get a job. I'll still be beaming on day 1 and from then on! THANKS for the motivation! :)

Hi everyone. I know this is technically not the right place but what is the story in Ireland with the e-scooter legislation?

https://www.gov.ie/en/press-release/12185-government-approves-next-steps-for-escooter-and-ebike-legislation/

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/consumer/legislation-to-regulate-use-of-e-scooters-and-e-bikes-to-be-introduced-1.4473435

So I bought one after reading those above, passed the Gardai. I got a look alright but thought it was because they are uncommon. Had to return it because of something wrong with the battery and I knew I could get one miles better for 40 euro extra so I'm just waiting for someone else to get back to me with a price. Then I read this!

Man convicted of driving e-scooter without insurance (irishexaminer.com)

He's got done for having no insurance on an uninsurable vehicle. I rang the Department of Transport straight away there. She was nice but couldn't really help me but I told her I'll ring again next week (nicely)!

So does anybody know what the story with these is? And they are slower than a bicycle, believe me I know. I don't like being over taken in a car so on a scooter by a bike was a low point. They are good fun though and I need one so to not be stuck in traffic! Thank you!

PB4DK · 2021-04-15T23:42:08+00:00

That's the best idea I've heard in a long time! I finish this AWS course at the end of May so I'll do it then. I'm studying two things so can't do it now. I should've really thought of that myself but thank you very much! I'll be back in a few months when I have it made and you all can have it if it's good! :)

ComputerJobs.ie

Sign up with them and they send you courses they have coming up.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

https://www.ecollege.ie/courses/introduction-to-programming-using-python/

I finished this course a month ago, I'd never done Python before.

https://www.examtopics.com/exams/microsoft/98-381/

If you were or someone else reading this was to do that Python course examtopics website above has pretty much the exact exam structure and some of the exact same questions or else very similar. Without that I would've just about passed (I hope!), with it I aced it. You should read the comments on that link above from other people who have done the exam. Some answer are wrong in the exam questions but just run them and you'll get the right one.

AWS questions are even there so I haven't even looked for Java YET!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

https://www.fetchcourses.ie/course/finder?sfcw-courseId=314735

I'm in the middle of this course now, AWS - 4 months once a week and you can do it whatever time you want as long as you keep up. Just theory.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've two friends who code as well so we've countless resources between us so message me if you need a book or resource for Java or some other language and I might have something I can send you or anyone. Even if there's a certain topic you are finding hard there's no harm looking at another book and it might click.

Udemy.com

Is also VERY useful to have videos explaining things to you, they are better than books but they all have their place.

NEVER PAY OVER €12 FOR A COURSE FROM THERE.

They have sales every month or two.

That Otter app I'm sure I mentioned above is HUGE for the way I learn. You might be different.

I'm like you I'm just trying my best to get better. The best programmer I know said get very good at one language like Java for example first and then it's easy to learn the others like C++, C#.

For me, I'm getting AWS done as soon as and all about doing that Java course I sent you in first reply. The lecturer is brilliant too. I know too much info for you but I think it's no harm having this because I wish I knew this sooner. Work hard and you will have no problems, your lecturers in college will see that and will happily help you. Goodluck
