A reboot in a complex system is a hard problem. Spend some time working with multi region “cloud” networks with large number of VMs with a many 9 SLA to gain an appreciation for difficult reboots.

Why would you want the Go community to fork? I just hope that in Go 2 if they add generics that the community stays together (or they just don’t add generics).

So lexical scanner, parser... hows it going? Are you using lex and yacc or are you rolling your own? Rob Pike has a fun talk on lexical scanning in Go.

Oh and not “lazy” in the a virtuous way but useless (lookup “three programmer virtues” for reference)

Trying to make heads or tails of this shitty feedback, the best way I can interpret it is this person thinks some aspect/s of your behavior hurts your productivity and then attributes the behavior to introversion. ... or maybe this person still thinks Myers Briggs tests are useful in the workplace and not total bullshit. Or most likely, this person is a lazy ass.

My manager told me about SMART feedback. It’s a good way to TDD feedback. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

...and this is why we use loops. If you had described this process recursively, you may have described a process that might have caused a stack overflow in a computer with memory of discrete length. If we asume humans are computers with limited memory capacity, you would have described a process that might have killed someone... eventually. Oh shit I just realized, this would also imply a recursive function alternating between two processors with shared memory... I smell a race condition! But to @rememberMe ‘s point, compiler optimization might make this whole problem go away. In this case a compiler could optimize via tail call optimization rendering the recursive function an iterative process. God I fucking love compilers!

...and I think that’s what we call offline learning.

Without more info I can’t make a recommendation. I can tell you what I did. I started working on some software with my dad right as I started on my CS degree. We thought we could productize some software ideas he had to sell to pharma companies. We were building the software to automate a large portion of his job. We went through about 6 iterations over 3 years. By that point someone else entered the market with a lot more money and more industry support. While I would have liked to make some cash from the dozens of hours I put in per month for that entire period, I don’t regret it. I developed the skills I needed to apply and get my dream job. I now spend over half my time writing open source software and the rest on proprietary stuff. The startup my dad and I built brought us closer and taught us both so much about business, project/market fit, and collaboration. I now plan on reviewing the code I wrote for the startup and will see what components/patters might be open source-able.

I was a CS tutor for a few years. Every fall there was a freshman who would make similar noises. 😂

Too bad crypto currency hasn’t been able to help out in this space.

My condolences

Attend developer meetups. Stickers are often provided.

golden image?

It does. I was pairing remotely and had ssh’ed onto my my pairs computer. I ran a similar but more ominous command and “scared the shit” out of him.

Returning 500 errors

I’m literally in the middle of a similar situation.

While my first inclination is “great job!” we must consider the pain and suffering and otherwise that comes along the developers journey.

I agree with @irene; however, if you are not up for straight up C, give Go a try. You can do some pretty cool web dev stuff with just the standard library plain old HTML +CSS and minimal JS.

Lol. I, a mac user, spent about an hour a few weeks ago learning of this windows BUG

Go. It's concise, content, and not really generic. I aspire to be more like go.

At my internship I spend a few points per sprint working with dev ops to improve Jenkins builds and evaluate various Idea and Eclipse plugins. I spend most my my time though on Jira closing tickets assigned to me where I had to write some Java. So for an internship, these requirements wouldn't be too weird but for a senior dev, I'd agree those requirements don't seem ideal.

I thought windows would be terrible (at school we use MacOS/Ubuntu at home I use a mac on my server I use Ubuntu). I always felt sorry for those Windows users I met occasionally because my childhood experiences on a PC using windows 98 eventually XP and finally vista were pretty bad in retrospect. Turns out a CS degree helped out. I got a job and use Windows and Windows server at work. Although it was a bit awkward at first, (i.e. not having awk... in command prompt) it's not so bad. Windows Remote Desktop is pretty cool.

Go, ES6, SQL

Mac + windows VM + ubuntu VM

This is an old one but good one. It deserves NUMBERS of ++. It's more LOGICal than my PAGES of attempts at iWORKing an Apple user comeback to this classic Office joke

One potential solution could use recursion. This is a potential algorithm off the top of my head. Essentially your base could be when the next nodes next ptr is NULL, then you swap the next nodes next to be the current node and return a reference to the current nodes next pointer. As you go back up the stack, you can do the necessary pointer manipulation... This sounds like a a HW question, so I'm being purposefully vague, but this is close to a solution. It probably isn't the best one though. I've saw some good answers on stack overflow about a year or two ago. Also if your school has a CS tutoring center they should be able to help. Best of luck! 👍🏼

@atroot you could subscribe to https://changelog.com/nightly. They post interesting github projects everyday

@atroot I'm not working on any open source projects in those areas right now. Best of luck finding a project 🙂
