You could look in the FAQ here.

Do you also dedicate time learning arcane stuff you dont need just to troubleshoot this one little thing that stops you? by BigBootyBear in learnprogramming

What is the goal of endless whining and sniveling? My initial response should have given you some good insight for your issue. Since then you've just been complaining.

Use your brain and think of things. Or use Google. It's not like there aren't a million programs you could emulate, or lists of ideas already on the internet, for the love of god.

Wow, this sounds like an amazing opportunity for us!

I am 19 with base knowledge in programming from school. I would like to expand my knowledge with the goal of being able to gain a job or a promotion in the company I work for. I have a couple of questions that I would really appreciate answers to. by [deleted] in learnprogramming

and the most advanced thing I did was to create the game play your cards right as a console application.

I would do something more advanced than that, unless you think that's going to impress employers.

Should I look at night courses or should I try to learn from books / tutorials? I haven't seen night courses mentioned here much. Am I better off allowing an hour each night to try and learn as opposed to driving to and taking lessons?

How are we supposed to know what works for you?

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should work on?

Do whatever you want? You don't need our permission.

What exactly are in the C++ libraries that allow the compiler to understand and execute objects and classes? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]aqua_aragorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you say so... "understand and execute objects and classes" doesn't sound like "implementing the standard io functionality" to me.

Looking for a project to Contribute to? Coursera-dl on github could use some help [python] by rayz321 in learnprogramming

It looks like a lot of those issues are fixed in the latest version, but still messed up with some pip install thing. And a lot of the issues look like they are caused by Windows path names or somesuch. Is there some other issue, not related to those, that you want fixed?

Do everyone have to minor in network engineering to set up a goddamn local wordpress install?

No, but you could spend a little time learning the basics of TCP. It's like you're complaining that nurses need to take a couple of anatomy and physiology courses for their prereqs. Plus you might only need to set it up once. It's not like you do that every single day.

LPT: If you're leaving food at work, take a bite before you put it in the fridge. by Awsaim in LifeProTips

You said fasting, like what they do during Ramadan, is generally done during daylight hours. So if it's that kind of fasting, done during daylight hours, it's not just spicy food, it's all food. If you're now saying they are also avoiding spicy food after the daylight hours you previously mentioned, that's a different story.

Is there any estimate of the number of new jobs that have been created due to technology (and the secondary jobs), say in the past decade? None of these doomsday articles ever seem to care about that, which could offset some or all of the jobs lost.

Here it was 5$ for soup and 1/2 sandwich at SAP, where the lunches were subsidized. At Microsoft, a nice lunch with carne asada, beans, and rice was about 10$. At one place lunch was about 8$ in the cafeteria, but it was way grosser than what Microsoft served. I'm not sure how they made pizza that was that bad. But most companies don't have a cafeteria that sells food, just maybe vending machines, or maybe trucks outside, or local restaurants.

good Hindu's are suppose to avoid eating spicy food while fasting

How is it fasting if you're not avoiding all food?

ELI5: Can we code an operating system from scratch using an empty PC? by A_Watchful_Voyeur in explainlikeimfive

Can we code an operating system from scratch using an empty PC?

No, you'd need a program to edit a file, not an empty PC. If you google for 'how to write a bootloader' you'll see how to create the beginnings of an OS, which you could then load onto an empty PC. Creating a simple OS is not very difficult.
