newreply.php posted:j/k i never open my linkedin i mentioned before that i was at a meetup thing for python users a couple nights ago, the only people who openly said they were hiring were still looking for people to do C#/F#/ASP so it had nothing at all to do with python, plus they said they did pair programming so i was even less interested the jobs here are almost all asp/java and i've tried throwing some resumes out to places in other cities, i think the problem is unless you're fresh out of college or really qualified it's harder for far away places to take a shot at you. i guess you can lie about your address but then if they want to bring you in it's an issue

newreply.php posted:so why not do a java job? do some python work on your own to show off if you want a python job. i could, but when every time you read something/someone saying that java is miserable it becomes more and more of a turnoff to ever learn. i have a basic grasp of objective-c (though i need to work on learning actual design for ios at some point), but i was going to spend some time actually learning c itself because there's a lot of c stuff that you don't really need to touch in objective-C/ios dev. rotor i'd send you a resume (though i'm on the other side of the country) and a little thing i was working on that i uploaded to github but i don't know what level quantifies "competent"

Ronald Raiden posted:I don't really have anything on my github and its not really an issue right now but I think for down the line it would be cool to have some stuff or contribute to a thing, the problem is yea, I suck at doing projects that aren't for work or school. my problem is figuring out what to work on and how to contribute. do people just a) read every line of code looking for issues, or b) use/try to break the programs intentionally? also another issue is a lot of projects on github are uninteresting plugins/extensions for X program/Y language :\

Internaut! posted:the only people who say that are hipsters/kids or people with some snowflake solution to sell yeah i'm starting to learn C. i've hosed around with Obj-C but i don't really feel entirely comfortable with it because i don't know C itself, and it'll make me a better programmer for learning it i think.

HORATIO HORNBLOWER posted:$5000 isn't what the degree cost, it's the amount of debt i incurred to get it the best way to learn is really just by doing things. some books really are pretty good (Kochan is one writer who I think is actually very good), but when you can actually work on stuff and make it work is what helps most. it's even better when you have colleagues who can help you, such as in a work environment, but unfortunately a lot of companies need that 5-7 years' mastered experience with iOS, or the 20 years of Java.

They decide that in order to attract normally shy and uncomfortable programmers, they should outfit the rooms with blinking lights, paint source code on the walls, and teach the prostitutes to make small talk about the differences between Vim and Emacs. 5

does anyone in here use cakephp or know anything about it don't ask why i'm asking about it. just tell me how much less miserable it makes php on a scale from "still really miserable" to "5% more tolerable" but i'm assuming it's still really miserable and you'd be better off with drupal
