In a comment on my “right to be forgotten” proposal I mentioned causality tracking (so eg. figuring out whether event A happened before or after event B) in distributed networks as an example of a hard problem, and I figured I’d share a blog post (not mine) on one of the more modern techniques that’s still very much...
I am excited to share what I have been working on as a Software Engineer Intern at Leaning Technologies. At Leaning Technologies, we create WebAssembly solutions to help businesses transition from native to modern Web Applications....
Recently, I ran out of mobile data on my phone, and I was forced to browse at a significantly reduced speed. It was so slow that it was practically unusable, except for messaging apps. So, I developed a platform in the form of a search engine that allows browsing and accessing information while exchanging a negligible amount of...
what is the best way to learn C ? I know basic python but would like to learn C, I tried searching online but couldn’t find a good resource that’s good for a beginner like me. any suggestions ?
Hey, folks! My son (currently 15) is interested in getting into game development. He’s taken a class in Python in school and enjoyed it, but I know Python won’t be enough. I don’t think he’s interested in ever making big, AAA games, but more along the lines of Undertale (which was made in Game Maker Studio) or Bug Fables...
Recently I've experienced a significant increase in merge conflicts at the company I'm currently working at (we hired a couple of junior data scientists and some are not that familiar with git)...
Copilot is great, but a hundred bucks for what is basically a smart autocomplete seems a bit much - mostly, I hate the fact that the code is constantly transmitted to github (my repos are mostly local) - are there any reasonably convenient options for doing this without github looking over my shoulder all the time? I’m using...
I know profilers and debuggers are a boon for productivity, but anecdotally I’ve found they’re seldom used. How often do you use debuggers/profilers in your work? What’s preventing you? conversely, what enables you to use them?
I always wish I wouldn’t have to pull in python/pandas to do simple data transformations on smaller local datasets/csv files and stick with sqlite. But then I tend to quickly hit a problem that seems to require dynamic SQL. Anything in between SQL and a general programming language that is made for transforming tabular data?
So ive tried to code many times on my own but i feel like im doing things the hard way and im still unsure what to pick becasue ive been jumping around here and there. like most gamers i would like to try to make a game or something but im just not sure if i can or not becasue it seems really hard to do and im not sur eif ill...
For me, it’s CTE’s. I find it amazing to complete a calculation with clear intermediate steps, and goes a long way towards convincing people to use SQL rather than Excel to perform calculations on large tables of data....
Do you think they can be powerful enough to build production-grade applications some day or are they going to stay as educational tools or build into specific applications forever?
Design patterns are typical solutions to commonly occurring problems in software design. They are like pre-made blueprints that you can customize to solve a recurring design problem in your code.
I’ve watched Bro code on YouTube for learning html and CSS and I enjoyed his explaining, teaching and such. After i completed his YouTube course I went onto numerous different sources to learn more. I found that he teached me most of the stuff that I found afterwards. When I was happy with my html and CSS skill to the point I...
I have looked at Google Cloud Run, Microsoft Azure and Kamatera so far. These are free trials, and I deleted and removed all projects after playing with them....
I’ve found this interview question at GeeksForGeeks and decided to actually code it in C++. The program currently prints the “value” of the horses (which is inaccessible by the coder so they can’t just look up who is number 1) and then proceeds to sort them and find the position of numbers 1,2 and 3 in a 5x5 matrix with...
With ever the constant updates to popular and important apps and websites, how do the developers ensure the update preserves the user and site’s original database, considering the possibility that the updates might contain data-corruptive bugs or exploits for users?...
Hi fellow bees! Soon Ill start working on a project with my group at uni. It will be long and hard journey and I will have to relearn python, as I havent used it much. But I am looking forward to it. The project itself is about signal analysis form EEG scanner to try and decode information hidden in and use it as a mean of...
