That is cool as hell. I see you're using Java, and I could use some practice since my CS program uses Java(I'm a Python guy myself), so let me know if you're looking for contributors. I have some free time during the week I could help out.

What technologies are you using to scrape the site?

I'm using Jsoup. its like beautiful soup but in java

Damn that sounds perfect. Although I prefer Scrapy to BS.

does anyone here know how to use pg_trgm to index a database?

[spazzin]

Data analytics is hnggggg

Question for experienced CS brahs:

Where could I find a good source to learn Microsoft SQL?

[digistp]

Question for experienced CS brahs:

Youtube && stack overflow

Good luck brah

That SQL chit tripped me up hard. Probably because the professor was garbage but still. That's what has me seeking heading to IT

You can order books online and fiddle around with SSMS on your own computer

[HungLikeOdin]

Not a CS major but would like to learn a language in my spare time. Where should I start? I was looking at C?

C is useless, learn Java or if you're confident C++

[Gronnie]

C most certainly isn't useless, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it as a first language.

CS brahs,

What skills/languages should I learn to eventually be able to design software for amazon marketplace web service APIs?

[JamesW129]

I made an android app (link is in my sig) for weightlifting. How can I get users? I tried posting it in weightlifting sub reddits and the posts keep getting deleted

[BradyBConner]

Any CS brahs who can't find a job

Im a soph and I still haven't gotten anything, few interviews here and there but nothing yet


feels pretty bad

Java, C# or PHP: http://docs.developer.amazonservices...eveloping.html

The Java developer guide explains everything: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSdkDoc...e/welcome.html

those links are for amazon's cloud computing. i'm talking about the marketplace web service, which is probably the same platform.

i guess a better question is what specific skills should i learn in order to develop productivity software such as inventory and pricing management, automated email responder, product detail tracking, etc.?

or maybe even better still, if i want to transfer my basic knowledge of java from writing command line programs to full applications, where could i learn that?

[joshewwah]

Anyone else taking Theory of Computation?

Holy fuk I'm getting killed in this class, All the hw assignments are proofs. And I can only seemingly do about half of the problems.

Did anyone else struggle alot? Any tips besides tutors, office hours,etc..?

Let M be a 5-tuple <Q, Sigma, delta, q_0, F>...

Just lol @ these useless classes

Brb gotta prove that something is correct, but isn't it already correct?

Let x be a positive number integer where aspodsiaspods i oaoip dai spd oai spod d spoi aps[posd aodi daosdn aondoaidjasklasdjalksdj

Brb using all these elven symbols just to sound smart

Brb describing everything in words but provide no visual pictures and expects u to understand it

Look into Node. No experience with the marketplace service but I do know they have a decent JavaScript API for SES, S3 etc.

IN on this thread.

I start my degree next fall semester (sept 2016). Went from mech. eng to CS.

Currently learning Java + android app dev via android studio (almost at an intermediate level). Then moving on to C# > C++ > C > iOS app dev > Swift then w.e other language I can get my hands on. Messed around with Python a little while ago. Going to get back on that soon.

I find learning to be very tedious.... but rewarding when you get that "ah ha!" moment. That and the salaries for jobs keeps me super motivated. Das it mane.

Take it easy bruh. Focus on 2/3 things and get good at them. Big salaries are paid for guys who are good at what they do, not intermediate at every single language there is

Exactly.

Experts are people that know very little about everything and very much about very little.

So I was bored in class today

Nice, but not sure why you're using the while loop AND calling the functions in their own implementation.

[Dreyth]

dfw suck at programming. good at math and computation though. got a BS in CS from fordham, couldnt get a damn job in CS or even IT. in real estate right now.

going back to fordham for a MS in cyber security (one year program). studying for net+ and sec+ certs too. hope something good comes outta this. im really interested in cyber security. hoping to land an entry level IT desktop support job while mastering so i have some relevant experience once im done with my MS.

edit: im good with conceptually understanding data structures though. also lots of algorithms and stuff, and making them more efficient.

That learning path is kinda random IMO, dedicate some time to learning data structures as that will come into play more so than proficiency in a certain language. Also having the mindset of becoming "language agnostic" is more important than learning the individual tips and tricks you learn with each language.

no reason, all the way down to the stack overflow

lol, ye I was just imagining the depth of the call stack.

urine idiot

brb your mind's not capable of sufficiently abstract thinking to understand proofs

brb no idea what the halting problem is

brb would never even think of using an approximation algorithm due to a lack of understanding of theory

brb will never actually build anything that's not just smashing APIs together

brb without finite automata, electronic devices and compilers would not exist

But actually, good proofs often use pictures for clarity.

He has a point though. Most CS guys want to go into developing. And for every developer that actually uses the math you learn in those courses, there are 70 who never need it. The majority are just jobs that require very little math beyond basic stuff.

If you're developing a 3D engine, or building a new video codec, or writing stuff where every milisecond counts, then yes it's very useful. But most developers don't do that. They end up writing websites, mobile apps and enterprise CRUD software.
