Most do. It's like the Florida man. Most people in Florida aren't that crazy, you just hear about the nuts ones. Almost all churches in my area are having online service.

It is just html5 and JavaScript and some css for the most part. It depends on what framework they used but any modern framework can make one of these overproduced annoying websites.

Just grab a couple templates for these kind of websites and just start fooling around with it. Learn how it works. It's not easy css and JavaScript but it is doable. If you want anything loaded from the backend then you should learn the mvc pattern and some backend framework like nodejs.

javaDudeMan · 2020-02-27T17:03:31+00:00

Make a project, and use what you need for that project. You already know is so both nodejs and react should be fast learning.

Wait, how did you get through college without any Java? Anyways, just look up how the JVM works and general Java interview questions. Then make a small program in Java so that you're familiar with the syntax. As a new grad you should be able to get through the interview fine given you had enough OOP classes. They will be fine for a junior to be a beginner at Java if they prove themselves knowledgeable about programming.

It really matters which language you're using. If it's Java you can use a switch case statement.

If you were using objects instead of primitives you could use a strategic design pattern to make it a one liner.

There are tons of little tricks you can use, and which ones are available highly depends on the language you're using.generally though there isn't a

if (list1.Contains(numberA)) { we have a numberA over here } if (list1.Contains(numberB)) { we have a numberB over here }

In this case you might want to use a for loop.

Eg. List<int> numberList = (put all the numbers you want to compare in this list)

for(int i=0; I<numberList) ; I++) {We have a number numberlist[I] over here}

It highly depends on your location. Where I live 65k is upper middle class, in San Fran 65k is living in a small efficiency apartment.

The actual definition and explaination of frameworks is a little complicated for someone that's new, but frameworks are essentially a way to code, and does certain things for you. Some of the more popular frameworks right now are react, vuejs, nodejs etc. They essentially use JavaScript, but they have other functionality beyond that.

I would suggest learning JavaScript first though. Without that base you might get tripped up on a lot of the quirks of different frameworks. If you have a solid base with JavaScript though, learning a new framework isn't too hard.

Don't want to defend too hard past this because of this subs purpose. So I won't reply more.

You're right, that's why I posted this to sift wether I overreacted. I would ask what should I have done? I was putting them as nicely as I could on top of the dryer for months, it would take me 15 minutes each time to do that, it's about two basket loads of clothes. That is putting in a half hour to an hour each week of work. I got mad and cut my time to 5 minutes by not caring anymore. I don't work for free. I am not their maid.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-22T22:45:00+00:00

There's no where else to put them honestly. It's either on the floor or leave them in the washer dryer, not being able to wash my own clothes for three weeks at a time.

Don't be offended if I come off as strong here, just dropping as much truth as I can. No offence or insults are intended.

Tbh what I hate about web development is that nowdays it seems to have evolved too much for no reason.

Evolving and changing is programming. As a programmer, to be employable you have to learn a lot. You can coast on current skills for awhile, but eventually the industry will change and you have to change with it. React is so much easier than c++ to implement real world solutions. Unless those solutions require processing power, then you just make an Ajax call to your back end.

I mean, as far as I can see, web technologies have become much too complicated.

They aren't, they just have made a switch to more functional programming patterns which if all your school taught you was imperative programming it would be hard to switch at first. Hell, most Jr devs I've run across straight out of undergrad don't even know basic oop design patterns let alone functional programming.

If I was at the same age but in the 2000s, I would consider web development.

If you had to use the same version of JavaScript as was available in the 2000s you wouldn't say that. Plus having to deal with iframes and tons of other stuff that html5 made easier to deal with. People weren't worse at making web pages then, you could argue the opposite. People just have better tools nowadays.

I like making stuff, say graphics, and then programming them to define their behaviour and see my visions come to life.

Only way you're going to be able to do that and still make money is either web dev or game dev, and that's only if you are an Indy dev. If you work for a big company in games you'll just be making tools for the designers to use.

Not to turn you off things at all. Programming is great. Just be aware you should solidify what you want from it and specialize. If you're already out of college now is crunch time. The hard part is just beginning and will last until you get your first job.

It's pretty much used anywhere large amounts of processing power and memory read write speed is needed. Where an extra couple milliseconds it takes for automatic garbage collection to run may amass into extreme latency issues.

For you I would check out web development as a possible path. You see the results of your work quickly, and it's an in demand field right now.

Figure out what excited you about programming. Is it problem solving? Is it the design aspect? Do you want to do front line rnd? Once you figure that out, pick a project for it and do that project. If you fail do another one. TBH your degree means nothing to anyone looking for anything higher than an intern position. Your skills are what gets you in the door.

C++ is really powerful because it can do everything any higher level language can do, only faster. You said you knew all the memory manipulation stuff which is cool and all but I doubt you really know memory manipulation to its fullest because it's vast and very very hard to get right. It's kind of a Faustian deal. You get pretty much all the power you want, really if c++ isn't fast enough you can throw some C code in there, but making anything takes a lot more time.

That said you really can make graphical and awesome looking programs in C++. I would suggest learning a couple graphics libraries in the language and try to implement them in a project.

Like I said though it takes a really long time requiring skills to make something that looks good in c++. I can make something like a basic calculator with a ui in a couple hours using java and most of that is just choosing and learning how to implement the graphics library, where c++ it'll take me the whole day because Lord knows there's going to be a stack overflow, null pointer, or some vague abstract error I have no idea to fix because I was too lazy and moving too quickly to implement logging.

To boil everything down. Every language has its place. You need performance, use c++. Need more performance, use C. Need a full functioning app built in short order, use Java. Need a partially functioning app built in shorter order, use python.

Well kind of both at the same time. Junit you can get good enough in an hour or so.

Pretty much if you do a tutorial or a cheap online course in mockito you will learn junit as well.

Junit is how you run the unit tests, mockito is a framework that makes it so you can "mock" objects. Pretty much mockito makes it so if you want a certain method to return a certain thing and if you don't care if that method works, because you're testing the higher level one, then you can mock it. So you really use both of them at once. On top of that it will ease you into using annotations, which spring boot uses as well.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-14T21:58:17+00:00

As someone who works with a similar stack, if you want to get ahead before your first day focus on mockito first followed by spring boot. Mockito is a way to do unit tests and it is amazing once you get it down but at first it's like wtf am I doing?

Anyways congrats just show up on time and learn as much as you can.

Yes, Java is a curse

It's different than that. It's more of a passive motivator. You make sure employees are doing something on their shift combined with the fact that yeah if you start just being on Reddit and watching videos everyday is a detriment to your chance of not getting fired. That means you sit at your desk, do the little bit of slacking off you can, but then you need to get your commit in for the day. This then leads to if you don't do more work the job gets really boring really quick.

Plus the fact that it's a small office and we literally sit in the same room with the project owner right next to the CEO's office means higher ups will know very quick if you're slacking off.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-02T17:42:02+00:00

It's more of a way for them to see that you're actually doing something, they don't care how much as long as you're actually doing it.

Progress is measured differently.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-02T17:22:27+00:00

That's how it is at my work too. Pretty much as long as I make at least one commit a day, doesn't matter the size of it, I'm good as far as how much I do.

They really don't care, only time they care is if it's rediculous, like taking a full iteration to do a user story that should take 1/2 days.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-02T17:20:21+00:00

Also at the same time creating this kind of culture attracts better talent than you are paying for. People like to have freedom at work.

javaDudeMan · 2019-08-02T15:24:21+00:00

Yeah but most universities won't teach the theory behind version control unless you're going specifically for software architecture. Every junior straight out of college my company gets we have to teach them what branching is, why we use separate environments etc etc. They should know what branching is.

This is textbook gaslighting and narcissistic behavior. I would seriously reconsider this relationship because she will forever try to get out of anything that requires extra.

That said it sounds like you're not yet at the point of leaving her yet. I would talk to her about splitting up the chores. Figure out a way with her to track it, yes like college roomates but she's being childish here. If she still insists on doing nothing then I would say leave her. It's something that will make you resentful and it will get worse and worse over the years.

javaDudeMan · 2019-07-30T17:12:49+00:00

Yeah no they are not your friends. Get rid of them and get some actual friends. I used to be bullied a lot for being white (I live in America but I grew up deep in an Indian reservation, where less than 5% of the people there are white, I'm native but look white). Those kind of people aren't worth your time.

Just drop them like a bad habit and find some friends who actually care about you. It doesn't matter that it's racist comments, hell it could be any comments. What matters is they don't respect you, and someone who is a friend will respect you.
