I thought studious_redux would be a good mod, but he decided to be a pussy bitch when he kept banning a couple users who were using the same IP address because they lived together. An admin kept unbanning them so he threw a bitch fit and left. He was a smart motherfucker and he was an NP, but he took modding way too seriously. -

you really don't help yourself do ya? :D

2017-06-08 at 3:29 PM UTCOoh, is the Comey testimony getting spicy? I haven't been following it closely and I'm not watching it live, it's really just entertainment for me. Reading some of the commentary on it, it certainly seems like this latest session is. Better check /pol/ for the best analysis.

2017-06-08 at 11:40 PM UTCLanny, do you know if there are any guides on what path to take in computer programming if you're only concerned about making as much money as possible. Specifically what to read on your own time, outside of school, so you can acquire information specific to the job. We all know that for any subject there's an immense amount you're forced to learn that's either flat out never useful or simply isn't used for the job. 4 years of school to learn 6 months of useful knowledge, learning more on the job in a few months than they did the entire time they were in school; anecdotes like these aren't uncommon. Of course there's variation, and versatility still has high value, there's the nature of knowledge and the interconnections, how having a wide store of knowledge can help you solve problems indirectly related to certain data you contain, come up with novel concepts/solutions etc. so I'm not saying you should completely disregard it.
Oh, and what languages have the most practical value. I sure as hell don't want to do web development because it's lame as fuck.
I'm not saying I'm dead set on it, I have no idea whether I'll have the affinity for it, and of course I have massive problems, which I admit sucking it up and at least easing into school would likely help a great deal with; no guarantee they'll ever be fully resolved (My cognition and ability to concentrate, drive, various other traits, are nowhere near their peak. It's standard for incredibly severe depression and other factors to have a strong detrimental effect, particularly the longer they continue). I'm just saying I'm considering giving it a fair chance and setting aside any preconceptions I may have.
Basically, let's say I wanted your job, to work for Satan/in the financial sector. If you could go back in time before you entered school, what would you recommend?
There should really be a book specifically devoted to this, or at least a website, a thorough guide. Hell, maybe there is, although finding it will be a pain due to the wording, search engine results. -
2017-06-09 at 12:10 AM UTCfrom what I understand most programmers learn multiple languages. I just started having a go at python. heres the pdf tutorial I'm using if it helps.

2017-06-09 at 12:20 AM UTCI say start with Python too.
-
2017-06-09 at 12:23 AM UTCI read studies that say knowing a language is detrimental if you intend to learn more. But hey fuck that noise. I started with Python, and do some Bash too and i am learning R so FOK JULLE NAAIERS!

My sinuses are so fucked up from snoring a dozen a day. I still have 15 oxycontins left, too. They don't do shit for me when I take them as directed and I CBF to extract them to snort or whatever. -

That's unfortunate because web dev is where the majority of the easy money is right now. For whatever reason webdev is eating the world. You can find fields with higher median salaries but the average experience is a lot higher too, like professional cryptographers make a lot of money but getting into that field takes a lot more work that web. Someone posted something to HN which is exactly what you're asking for in web dev too: https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap
But if that's out, IDK, systems programming pays pretty well once you get past a dearth of entry level positions. Some people like it, some people think it's insanely hard, most people float somewhere in between. I like it because it's very different from what I'd done for most of my career, so it's fresh to me, but there are times it starts to look like an irredeemable hellscape. For that you want to learn C inside and out, and then at least like dinosaur-book level OS stuff.
Data science stuff has been threatening to be "trending" for many years now and there's money there, I think it's really boring but . Statistics (like as taught in an academic context) is a must, languages in that area are a mixed bag. Java is probably still the workhorse there with R being well represented as well. There's also a collection of algorithms that are bread and butter in that domain that you don't see a lot outside of it (hyperloglog comes to mind but I'm sure there are others) and just background stuff like SQL and data APIs that you need to know, you'd have to read to find out what specifically is relevant these days. -
