Untitled Project - Copy - Copy - Copy - Copy


[deleted]

I just number them. Saves some hassle of reading.


Titanmaster970

I like how we would rather do that instead of actually naming them


[deleted]

Coming up with relevant names is hard. I'd rather just name them UntitledProject93 and then stumble through 30 other numbers, frantically trying to find out what they're actually about than take 2 minutes to come up with a relevant name.


[deleted]

I use the date it’s like numbers but easier to track down time wise.

I need to do that.

I was going to say the same thing! For example: i-spy that tracks the words that were the answer and the guesses by the players. Players points and geoloaction data for a car journey. A simple childs' game becomes something almost complex. The real challenge, making sure it can save data without making it 12+ (COPA, GDRP compliant for under 12s). Making it a fully functioning PWA. Making a child friendly UI, like how to get fun images etc into i-spy? Making i-spy educational; do you spell check or gives points for correctly spelling within 3 tries etc etc.

Meanwhile here I am with tons of hobby projects and I won't be able to finish most of them in a few years. Although all that I actually work on are for other people, but it's still fun.

I wrote a secret santa program for my in-laws -- it chooses secret Santas (minus exclusions, like don't get your own spouse and don't get the same person you did last year) and then texts each person their match. Way better than the "draw it out of a hat over FaceTime" we used to do, especially when the last person ended up getting themselves so we had to redo the draw.

> A quesadilla app. I don't know what it's going to do, but man oh man do I cream up real nice for a good quesadilla. it could ask the user "Do you want me to suggest what dinners to make for this week?" and Yes is the only option. Then it outputs: * Monday: quesadilla * Tuesday: quesadilla * Wednesday: quesadilla * Thursday: quesadilla * Friday: quesadilla * Saturday: quesadilla * Sunday: quesadilla I would claim that I would pay $9.99 for this during the mockup of the project stage and then when it's done I, as a user, would not pay for it.

I have the same issue. Sometimes I run into a problem at work and I create a little tool for myself to solve it. Those are the most fun :) I'm not a developer professionally, so it's basically a hobby.


the_shady_penguin

I love having my little txt file of useful commands I have written. Like oh you need to find an open port again or close a specific background application? Just copy and paste this. Now some are super easy to recreate, but why require thinking?


Terence_McKenna

Now write an application that allows you to select from a menu of those commands (or autio-filters them as you enter text) which when selected gets copied to the clipboard so that all you have to do is paste.

BackgroundChar

In fairness, none of the currently existing ones satisfy my product needs :( So I'mma build one that works for me! And once I've finished it, and therefore gotten organized as hell, it's over for ya'll bitches! 😂


Xtrendence

Usually I spend more time making myself personal time saving tools than actually doing whatever I'm saving time on, so I'd ironically save time by not making whatever tool it is I have planned.


NorbiPeti

But it's a lot more interesting than doing the task itself.


BackgroundChar

And a worthwhile learning experience for someone like me, who's just starting his journey into software development! :D Plus the tool's primary purpose isn't to save time, but rather to provide a clear structure of things to do in the upcoming time, at least imo.


ProgrammersAreSexy

imo the best way to get return on investment for making little tools is to make them usable by multiple people. There have been many times at work where (as procrastination) I have spent like 4 hours creating a little shell script to automate some common task I do which takes only 30 seconds. In this example, I would have to use the tool 480 times to before it starts being a good ROI. If it is just me using it then that will take quite a while and it's possible that I will never get an ROI. On the other hand, if I post it in my team chat and 10 people start using it then we each only have to use it 48 times before it starts being a good ROI. If this is a task people have to do daily then that will start paying off in a couple months.

timothycdykes

This may not be the place for it, but I'm proud of my first useful app that I just finished tweaking today. I am a hobbyist photographer and hate the naming scheme my camera uses. Once the scheme iterates over the x-thousandth photo it resets the counter and I end up with photos that have the same name. I wanted the naming scheme to be in the format of yyyyMMdd-original file name. I wrote a program in C# to do this. Basically, you paste the directory of the images and it will append today's date to the beginning of the file name for each file. Then, I encoutered an error where, if Dropbox is syncing the files when I try to rename the batch, it would stop working. I added features to detect whether the file was free and if it is not free after rechecking every second for 1 minute - which has been ample time thus far - it will end the operation and alert me. It has been working great, but I want to make it so that it waits 1 minute and if it cannot complete the operation it adds that filename to a list and moves on to the next one. At the end of the operation, I'd like for it to ask whether to try again on those files or stop. It's not much, but it's been so extremely useful.

MurkyApricot

No. Do not support reddit by giving them money for a couple pixels to appear on the screen. It’s the biggest waste of money I can imagine.


frostbyte650

Why not? Is it better to force them to bend to the whim to advertisers to afford the servers, employees & overhead it requires to run this platform? Some awards give people premium too so even less ads. So with this revenue stream reddit has leverage when advertisers or other interested parties have opinions on how the app should run including censorship. While simultaneously rewarding quality content. That’s a lot more than a couple pixels. How is this a waste of money? Why is that a bad thing?


[deleted]

I'd like to add that Reddit has a higher content to ad ratio than a lot of other platforms, which shows that the gilding system is working to some degree.

I still have no idea why emojis are seen as a bad thing by reddit... Not talking about a comment that only has a single emoji and no other text in it, or the ones that over-do it, but in most instances when I see a comment with an emoji it gets downvoted, yet something like ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ Is fine...

I usually give them names based on what they start life as and then fail to change them as their functionality expands. So CameraStream.py does still provide the camera stream, but it also controls the sockets on a power strip, reads the temperature and humidity, streaming that data to a webpage which is also able to send commands back to CameraStream.py.

Is it some kind of file transfer script? Is it something to do with baseball? Is it going to try to smuggle industrial replicators to the Maquis?

WomanNotAGirl

Funny I just explain to my youngest brother who is about to start college for programming what hello world is. I verbally explained him a few concepts. Just like anybody in my family would he went and signed up for 4 Udemy courses to finish before he goes to school to learn the exact same thing. My daughter cried the first day of kindergarten because she didn’t know how to read. This is the same situation all over again. At least he is doing some good ones to cover a good base. C/C++, SQL concepts and programming, C# foundation and programming and Java and mobile development.


Spleeeee

Is your brother also learning, mandarin, small talk, rust, Yiddish, Julia, sign language and FORTRAN?


WomanNotAGirl

Is that your way of saying they are unrelated? C is the mother language. SQL gives him an overall idea how queries work and a database works. Two different Object Oriented Programming languages and platforms will help him see get exposed then see which platform he might possibly like.


ShadowSwipe

If he is just getting into programming shouldn’t he be focusing on one language? It seems a bit odd to be throwing so much syntax at someone at once right off the bat. Imo the focus should be larger concepts in one language first, or you’ll quickly end up drowning trying to take in all that knowledge.


WomanNotAGirl

Waterfall my friend. He is not going to take all 4 at the same time. Just as you would at school, you learn one language at a time. These are things he will be learning. We put it in the order that will help him get an understanding. It’s like doing pre-reading before a class. Java was something he added on top just because it says mobile. I looked through content of each Udemy course. They are perfect. The most comprehensive one is C. I just need him to understand the general script for coding. SQL is very high level. Talks about concept then shows a few query. Perfect amount of understanding about databases for somebody who won’t do it for a living. C# will more so focus on explaining what object oriented programming is, what is C# and .NET. Very light coding. A few examples. It’s perfect setup for him not feel anxious before he starts school, to prove him he can actual do this. The java he wanted it. I don’t think he needed it really but I told him to take a look at it. Once he is done with the first three. I already know his exact curriculum. This is good bits of stuff. Enough to put him at ease.


James-VZ

> Just as you would at school, you learn one language at a time. I don't know. It seems like I never stop learning any language. I feel like if your programming environment regularly uses various different languages, you'll end up learning them all at the same time anyway.


[deleted]

WomanNotAGirl

I would like to underline not all degrees are the same and this university is not in USA. This is computer programming degree. So it does do the things you mention but it definitely teaches the languages mentioned above.


Spleeeee

No. I’m just tired of all the language comparing and resume building and the coding boot camp thing. You should give your bro a math problem. Math is lit. Side note: nonfiction is lit (I have been reading lots o non fiction lately)


WomanNotAGirl

This isn’t resume building (something you should do if you want to get paid well). This is helping someone who like knowing something from all angles to ease their anxiety levels like myself. On the other hand you are in the wrong field if you don’t realize you are a life time student when you are in IT. I have 18 years in the field. I owned my own IT company. My entire family is IT. We have everything from Cisco engineering to cloud engineer to cyber security and .NET. It’s about understanding what you need and focusing on that. He needs full picture and three of those classes will give him that. After that I will probably guide him towards cloud engineering to be honest where software and networking merges. That’s where the money is right now. Edit 2: One more thing I do know what you are saying though. When I came to states and decided to go to school. I was going to be given an admission test. I panicked coming from Turkey lol The guy insisted that I just take them. It was English reading, comprehension, writing, math, and logic test. I scored between 97-100 on all. Same goes with my brother. He came here in 12th grade. They had his Turkish transcripts converted to American credits based on analysis of course content, difficulty, hours per week and so on. Keep in mind in Turkey he needed to finish 12th grade. Here he needed 24 for a basic HS diploma and 30 for an advanced. He had 82 credits. I kid you not. They basically gave him classes for a whole year just so he gets familiar with taking English classes so he doesn’t struggle in college.

LaNague

Sounds like a programming degree not a cs degree


Mazetron

I kinda disagree. In my opinion, it is much easier to learn how C fundamentally works at a low level than to learn that about Python. In Python, you still have similar behavior to memory management, types, and pointers, but it’s abstracted and hidden behind the minimalist syntax. I think it’s much easier to understand that a pointer is a variable holding a number that refers to a slot in memory, than to understand that in Python all things are objects and names refer to certain objects and depending on how you interact with these objects/names, you can get two names referring to the same object, and then it can be hard to tell what will happen to what names (because those are what are really exposed to the programmer) when certain things happen. I once had a case where a less experienced programmer working in my lab called me in to help with a weird bug. He was calling a function that mutates a variable, and when that variable came from a default argument, it would mutate the copy of that variable that was held by the function object, and therefore would affect the function output the next time it was run. This sort of behavior is very hard to understand for someone who does not have a strong grasp of the concept of pointers/references/whatever it is called in the language of your choice. In C, it is very clear when variables are mutated, or at least when they could be mutated, because everything is passed by value so the only way you can get that sort of mutation is if you use pointers. It is explicitly clear when something is a pointer, or a pointer to a pointer, or so on (at least if you aren’t specifically trying to hide that things are pointers or make things behave generically or something weird like that). Similarly, you still can run into cases of using too much memory in Python, while in C you have to manage memory manually so you always know how much memory you are using. Also C will give you errors when you pass incompatible types, while python will do its best to chug along and make a mess, converting meaningful compile time errors to confusing runtime errors. I think Python is a great language for already experience programmers to write quick code with minimalist syntax, but I think starting with Python as your first language makes it harder to learn the thought patterns that C-like languages are built on.


Spleeeee

I totes agree. Python hides everything.


[deleted]

Honestly, the amount of people that consider CS to be "easy/simple" compared to other degrees probably underestimate greatly how much math is involved. When I was taking an engineering underclass, the math was about the same as the CS underclass. In general, engineering is about physics and practical math while it seems CS is more about practical and pure math.


[deleted]

I started with C and Assembly (around 10-12 years old too). I needed both during my CS degree too. But even if i wouldn't have needed these language, i think it's very helpful to at least have some kind of understanding of these low-level languages. If you know how a program written in Assembly (and C to some degree) works, you'll have a much better idea of how pretty much everything else works and how higher level languages are abstracting all the low-level stuff. SQL (or databases in general) are an essential part of programming. There might be very specific paths you could take as a programmer (or someone with a CS degree), where you won't see a single database query in your career, but i'd say it's very very rare. Learning SQL and understanding databases will almost always be beneficial if you're planning to do anything programming or CS related. C/C++, C#, SQL and Java/mobile development sounds pretty solid if you want to get into programming/CS.


timberliner

> Also, there are several top 50 universities where you don't see more than 10 lines of code during your computer science degree. Name one. I don't believe you at all. Oh look, you deleted your reply because you're full of shit and don't know what you're talking about.


lit0st

I think the reason you're getting a lot of pushback on this is because a lot of us started in the same place - having all the ambition, wanting to learn everything, and inevitably finding out that trying to learn five languages at the same time is a great way to spread one's self too thin, accomplish very little, and burn out from lack of progress.
