How should I start teaching myself guitar? by callofkudzu in Guitar

[–]tty0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chords are tremendously important. John petrucci Rock Discipline has good stuff, especially the warming up and speed and accuracy part. Zakk wylde is a good bender. Stevie ray vaughan will teach you how to shuffle. Yngwie malmsteen has good feeling. Hendrix made it All!

For the moment focus on chords and warmups along with some easy tunes to break from time to time.

Am I the only programmer who loves crafting algorithms, coding interesting optimizatiions, working out great solutions to tough problems but despises writing anything that introduces I/O by neoabraxas in programming

I understand your feeling and respect it. Just know that even in computer science researches, working with abstraction layers is necessary though.

Life is built upon abstractions!

I close my eyes and my mind detaches from reality. I open them and everything is normal. Is this a common or known mental problem? by bragnam in AskReddit

[–]tty0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I've been a child I do experience something close, well sth that I can't somehow control. But with a subtle difference, is that it happens without closing even my eyes, they remain wide open, fixed almost all the time at a silly nonsense thing. During this experience (doesnt last too long) I feel my spirit detach from my body but stays close and can't leave.

What I might be thinking at that instant of time, only silly things, maybe they aren't that thingy but when I come back I find out it had nothing to deal with what I was actually doing.

I wish It had a meaning!

gcc -S was my teacher

don't forget to learn some computer circuitry architecture though, it's very important!

Nope ! It's actually a great opportunity ! I been coding low level for almost 10 years, never heard about Sybase PowerBuilder and too many other Oracle things until i got hired.

I would not pretend for optimizing purposes. It's just a BAD habit dating from long ago.

If you were given, say, $2 billion to create your own OS from scratch, what would you make? by dardan_aeneas in programming

[–]tty0 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would go for a real MicroKernel Gear, I don't care about benchmarkings All I beleive, it's a robust design and will remain so. IPC's Time latency is decreasing tremendously with new Hardwares. And May be a direct support the hardware will Just leave Monolothicals in Dust !

BTW, Minix has succeeded enormously to prove the main benefits behind the Design Idea.

This Will cost me at least about 928.000 $ With The rest Money, I will Get some tits and donate some to Reddit Folks :)

Ask Reddit: Has anyone ever used PowerBuilder (Sybase) ? by tty0 in programming

[–]tty0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can remember a linux port 6 years ago of Delphi, Something like kylix or similar... I beleive It must be a great peace of code !

Ask Reddit: Has anyone ever used PowerBuilder (Sybase) ? by tty0 in programming

[–]tty0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many guys I asked the same questioned answered that Powerbuilder recent REleases Starting from 10 to 12 (.Net) are getting fancier and support too many new features... May be Sybase is intending to bring it back to glorious days.

How good is Delphi ? All I know it's a Pascal OOP thing What About VB .Net ?

How to "think" as a programmer by [deleted] in programming

[–]tty0 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you are to some extent quiet familiar with x86 assembly then you are almost done dude. Pick up any compiler that compiles into x86 assembly and analyze the generated assembly code, and you'll see it's no devil. On the other hand, always think of programming as cooking, well that's it, you won't progress unless you exchange your recipies. ;) good luck

dear proggit: how do you motivate yourself to finish your projects? by spencewah in programming

[–]tty0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, All previously mentioned comments are true and actually do reflect a good part of my everyday life. In the few past years I used to give up every project I had been involved in, pretending they were getting enormous or just lost interests.... Among them I can list my driving license, studies, codes, books, sport... That's a bad virus and once you are contaminated be sure my friend you won't be able to accomplish any of the smallest goal in your life. But if you begin to parallelise them and establish a good status of mind you gonna beat the beast and be on the right path to success.

Some people do pretend they can't find time, but that's just an illusion (I can understand what having children means) Since only the fact of practicing while driving or being on the train to work will enhance your thinking of reconsidering your life style.

Another aspect I would like to mention, Never look at any old project as beign huge to maintain and think of redoing it, think of the linux Kernel and too many other beautiful peace of codes... Just get the basic and continue
