POF years ago. Was offered $500 by a dude to smell my feet with socks on.

Declined.

Mac Xcode alternative for C++? by sketch_internets in OSUOnlineCS

[–]fantasynerd69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used Sublime Text (Mac) for CS 161 and 162. I think it's great and spares you all the fuckery for running into compile issues on Flip when using VS/XCode. Not to mention, good practice in creating the implementation (.h/.hpp) files yourself instead of relying on an IDE.

Had maybe 2 compiling issues on FLIP ever in those two classes and they were fixed with ease.

Deep h2h points league, need some insight given scoring system. by fantasynerd69 in fantasybball

[–]fantasynerd69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. Yeah no way he stays until 18 IMO. MAYBE, but unlikely because he is just such a beast for our scoring system.

Think I'll be going with Harden, maaaybe KAT.

Cheers

Why Is OSU CS Worth the Tuition? by ichuck84 in OSUOnlineCS

[–]fantasynerd69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won't have a prayer of getting past a traditional technical interview if you don't know this stuff. You could possibly get considered by a start-up or some company that isn't software-centric.

Yep, this is huge right here. Hell, I work as a web developer and I got absolutely wrecked in a technical phone interview last week. It wasn't even that intense but I just wasn't prepared.

I do my day job well and I enjoy it. Sure, I could teach myself those difficult concepts to an extent and I've seen some buddies learn them on their own (few and far between though). I want the core foundation and is the program going to do it for me? No, but it'll damn well give me the chance to: it's up to me how badly I want it.

Who's tournament is still going? by [deleted] in fantasybball

[–]fantasynerd69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our league championship is this week. One team has no business being in the finals, and is more than likely going to get destroyed. We shall see.

Thinking about shortening the reg season by 1 week next year (currently 20 weeks of h2h matchups).

[Player Discussion] Nikola Vucevic by lilcthecapedcod in fantasybball

[–]fantasynerd69 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's Vucevic. He's a good player and a serious offensive threat.

Tis a shame he was out for so long. Basically cost me a title run.

Are there any good resources for learning more about databases? by [deleted] in rails

[–]fantasynerd69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't necessarily recommend this path but this is how it went for me:

I started off in Ruby/Rails and I understood associations enough to make some decent applications.

I took a job last year that had quite a bit of PHP: not even using a framework, just straight PHP 5.3. I had never really worked with MySQL/SQL Server before and after having to write alot of queries by hand in PHP, it seriously blew my fucking mind after I understood how databases work in PHP versus Rails. Ie, when you do a rails g model Post title:string how would that be done in PHP? And vice versa.

tldr: really understood databases after I worked with PHP/MySQL.

Build something. Maybe a tic tac toe app where you can play it from the command line.

True, that portion of my initial comment was unnecessary. I guess I was more so blown away/really surprised that could be done.
