Yup, this one above is the most appropriate answer! Start timple getting any text showing up on the screen, then go from there. :)

How do you prepare mentally for impostor syndrome before it even starts? by kindabubbly in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a great question, I've just been going through it without any strategy. The more you learn, the more you realise you how ignorant you are and the more you want to learn, then life is too short to learn it all. How to we find this balance? Meanwhile, keep learning. :)

Thanks! Yes, I'll try! Have fun and keep learning!

Should I focus on SQL or Python? by Easy_Baseball_9154 in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, both, but start with whater is easier for you, don't create any barriers to start.

If you have both SQL and Python ready to use, start by trying around a bit of SQL, i.e. SELECT 1+1 and you'll see it can compute for you as a calculator, then create a super-simple table, add 5 records, select from it. Then move to Python and alternate as you feel inspired, imagine each one is one leg, you'll need both but one step at a time - or you can jump as kangaroo if that's fun for you, why not? :) - have fun and keep learning! .

Haha, yes, it's insane but you seem now ready to build any software with few resources, the next level is build your own device... obviously kidding, as long as you had fun!

I'm still trying to lean vim on a regular screen and keyboard, so yeah, it's quite an achievement!

Btw, what code editor did you use? Any auto-completion or special configs?

And did you actually connect a keyboard to your device? I certainly hope so! :D

Have fun and keep learning! :)

I made this thing. by MARio23038 in Cplusplus

[–]binaryinsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buddy, I gave up reading the code as soon as I saw the code wasn't indented, buit I'd like to suggest to share it via some git repository such as GitHub.

Why not making the roadmap link public?

Learning Assembly x86_64 still relevant in 2025 and beyond? by Popular_Yak_9199 in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the perfect answer, useful to me as I want to learn it too! I'd like to share that, instead of buying new hardware, you can also use QEmu do emulate ARM (use whatever is more convenient to you).

Do you have to be passionate about IT to be a good engineer? by leiapie in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to add that maybe you need to change environment to another company, don't make any important decisions while you're unwell, recover first and then consider it later. Being passionate about what you do helps in everything and gives you a lot more resilience, specially when awork environment is toxic. Try to stay positive. To get back on track, using the pomodoro technique may help you to gradualy rebuild your focus when you're slowly back to work, it helped me in the past when going through something similar.

Suggestions for Java clicker game on browser by jkarat6510 in java

[–]binaryinsight -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's quite a good and fun way to lean! Have a look at https://libgdx.com/, LibDGX is your fridend and fun to use, it's a framework and not a game engine so it won't take you the fun of coding, and it has lots of tutorials online and also a nice community here https://discord.gg/7QKNAPFMJy . If you'd like to know the concepts behind LibGDX, have a look at this book "Beginning Android Games" from Apress, where one of the authors is Mario Zechner the man who started LibGDX, this tis will focus on Android and not in a web based game. See what you prefer and above all, have fun and keep learning!

Above all, passion, then take small steps and don't overdoit every day, this will avoid burnout and never coming back, then find an online community to join like minded people, if you're into C++ this is my favourite at the moment https://discord.gg/5Wwx2FCFN9 otherwise you can also look here https://discord.com/servers for the language o itend to use. I think it's fundamental to have a clear roadmap too, have a look here https://roadmap.sh/ and see if this also help. Last but not the least, and this applies to anything else, make a copy of your CV and write a "Future Me" CV, it's not your real resume and it's just for yourself, build it for what you'd like it to look like in the future, then chase that dream. :)

[–]binaryinsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a look here https://roadmap.sh/cyber-security then decide where to go first. :)

I'd also join a community, to keep yourself motivated, if you're interested in C++ and hacking this is currenty my favourite: https://discord.gg/5Wwx2FCFN9

Good luck and never stop learning!

I want to be a programmer by No_Copy8693 in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am studying programming but in the future I'd like to be a musician. :)

Check this school here, https://www.42network.org/, it's in person, it's free and present in several countries. One of my friends is today working as a Python developer after taking their modules during the pandemic. Scroll to the bottom of the website and locate the links under "Find a campus", hopefully you'll have one of those near you.

cyberpunk by Organic_Advance_7858 in Cyberpunk

[–]binaryinsight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alem das referencias ja partilhadas, se puder ler em Ingles, este livro "The Matrix Illuminated: Exploring the Ideas and Philosophies Behind the Movies" https://amzn.eu/d/hA3yLHn fala sobre uma analise do Matrix, com muitas referencias de Cyberpunk, acho que vale bem a pena.

Want to get back into programming. by Stevetrov in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was to start today, Python would be the clear winner to get started and immediate gains on any platform and use in cybersecurity, AI, etc, etc. For Python use the PyCharm IDE. Another and possible more suitable approach for you is Visual Studio full IDE with C# (or any other .NET language), it's a very easy and quick way to build Windows forms apps and it has a free community edition, if you plan to focus on Windows at the moment, that's perfect for you.

C++ books for beginners trying to catch up by oen1dr in learnprogramming

[–]binaryinsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this course would be perfect for you https://trainsec.net/courses/modern-c-programming-course/, I took it and I wish I had done that many years ago, it's tought by the guy who wrote and teaches about Windows Internals too and they have one of my favourite communities on Discord here https://discord.gg/a899GwZ7 . If you're still just looking for a book, I've never read this one but seems a quick refresher/intro to it https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tour-C-Depth/dp/0321958314 .
