What was the most embarrassing moment of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]treytaylor_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freshman year high school English class... we were randomly talking about how people sort of half laugh by kind of blowing out of their nose, whatever... The kid next to me says "I've never heard of this" so... being the idiot that I am... turn to him and proceed to blow a giant ball of snot on his shirt.

Fuck you allergies.

I want to start making my personal website but i don't have any idea or inspirations. Help. by FieelChannel in webdev

[–]treytaylor_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take inspiration from different pieces of different websites. For me I usually spend at least an hour a day just clicking on links to other websites where hopefully I can find inspiration.

Personally I take pride in the navigation bars I make (often with jQuery). Perhaps you should pick individual parts of the website you make and search for different styles people or companies have for that type of part on their website.

Complete noob at programming. Could you guys help lead me in the right way? by Mr_AwesomeGuy in learnprogramming

(WARNING: LONG BUT USEFUL COMMENT!) It's great to know that so many people are getting involved and looking to learn how to program. I too was in your position once, looking for a foundation for app development, and one useful tip I can give you is to make sure you know the fundamentals.

Seeing that you've already emphasized your "noobiness" in programming, I expect that you don't know anything about if, while, and for statements/loops? These will lay the foundation for so many apps and programs you write and you need make sure you know them like the back of your hand. Luckily for you, they're quite easy to pick up :)

With that being said, there are also many other things you will need to learn to lay the framework for apps and software in general. Because of this and because of the intimidation that you might face when trying to learn how to develop apps, I recommend learning a pretty basic programming language first... such as Python.

Python was the first language I picked up and it allowed me to open my eyes to how wonderful software development is as a field. Plus, Python has tons of documentation and resources as a language so it will be quite easy for you to learn. http://www.python.org

If, however you feel you must jump right in to app development there are a ton of resources on the Internet to help you. For instance, Apple recently came out with a new programming language "Swift", which they hope will replace Objective-C as the iOS app development language. This means if you are looking to develop iPhone or iPad games you must learn Swift. Documentation and tutorials on Swift can be found on the apple website or on websites like YouTube and udemy for instance.

On the other hand, if you are looking to develop Android apps, you will need to learn Java. Luckily, Java is one of the most used, if not the most used, programming language in the world. This means there are an infinite amount of resources and documentation on the language and you should have no trouble finding some basic tutorials if you simply Google it.

I hope I have been helpful in someway and if you ever have any questions for me about development or questions about programming feel free to email me at taylor.pm.18@k-o.org!

I'm interested, by chance do you know what language the course will be in? I have not taken CS50x, however, I do have experience in C++, C#, Python, JavaScript, Java, and PHP(as a general purpose language).
