learn how to code instead of browsing the coli all day brehs

[FSP]

Not for me but i cosign this thread. There was another breh on here who made a thread recently about a free trial where you could download full classes.

That hole closed a long time ago, unfortunately.

Actually, I'm only on webforums to take my mind off coding.

Right now I gotta update the tracking algorithim of what floor the player is on... cause when you walk in an interior location it'll say "Locarion Name (1st Floor)" when it should only say "Location Name".
I only want the floor display to kick in when you head to a non-ground level height like 2nd Floor, 3rd Floor, basement, attic, roof, etc... then if you return to ground level from a non-ground level interior location (if you are on the 2nd floor for example then head downstairs) it should say '1st floor' only under that condition... otherwise it should display the location name but omit displaying the floor.

There is no point in displaying '1st floor' in locations that only consist of one floor anyway... so thats my afternoon... and I definitely need to be done before Westworld/Walking Dead.

But I don't feel like updating the floor tracking and location display background calls at the moment cause its gonna be alot of if/else clauses, and that means alot of double checking to make sure the newly imposed limitations I add still allow other scenereos to access and trigger the codes they rely on once the single level locations are restricted in their use of those codes ... hence the coli, worldstar, /co/, youtube, etc to kill time.

How can learning a skill be a gamble my G! What about posting on the coli?
You have 6000+ posts. Lets say each post took 2 minutes to compose.

Altogether that is 12000 mins = 200 hours of time spent on here posting.
Imagine learning this for 2 hours a day, 5 x a week = 200 hours in 6 months approx.

In roughly 6 months you will have a good grasps on the basics in a good skill that you can keep building on.. & you can do whatever you want with it.



If its a gamble, it sounds like good odds to me,

i see what you're saying but it's apples and oranges. i post a lot at work and the coli is free.

you got lectures $200 for 7 hours, 195 for for 13 hours. that money adds up. . People interested should probably try to do free courses first to see if it is something they are willing to stick with.

Props op

I do that shyt too



I dropped out of college (I'm 21) but I'm studying for my A+, so I hit up the private college near my house and use their library since I need a quiet place to study



It doesn't hurt the campus is full of PAWGs

Real shyt , sometimes a nikka need to change his environment to get his mind right


its some fine ass country chicks in that hoe . spring should be cool

Ok so you complete these courses, do you get a certificate at the end of it? What can you put on your resume to show employers you are qualified for the job?

This. I need some side income and already work from home. This has always been a question of mine

 

[TXTrill1]

Any good books on coding?

Edit:
What's everybody's opinion on these lil YouTube crash courses? Good info or nah?

this seems like a gamble. you learn all that stuff and there is no guarantee that you are getting a job since you taught yourself with no school and having no past work experience. Would a recruiter even give you the time of day? or is this geared towards people building their own stuff/company?


i'm not interested though; just asking out of curiosity and not trying to put people's hopes down.

As long as you have any kind of degree you can add the coding experience on your resume and if they question you about it say you took some extra classes.....they would never check on specific classes you took anyway. Anyway thanks for the link OP been looking to expand even tho I have a career already

You don't need a certificate. The best part about coding is you can build whatever you want to show off to your potential employers. As long as you have a pretty decent profile to show and are able to talk about it somewhat intelligently then you should be fine.

Just kind of thinking aloud since I see these type of threads once a month but wouldn't it be beneficial to have a small group of brehs/brehettes who go through a course together and help each other with the assignments? I would say that self studying on your own would be hard for most people to stick with. Structure and comadary should help a lot more be successful.

He may not remember but @FreshFromATL helped me out a few times when I was working on some programming assignments a few years back and it was nice to have someone I could go to and have someone help you understand something.

I want to try my hand at learning an app development language. This is not my primary field - more for educational purposes. Any recommendations? Thanks

Great idea.

Say brehs, I came across a couple of local 3 month coding academies in Orange County CA and they range from 12-15gs. Do y'all think it's worth it? The classes are Mon-Fri 8 hours a day.

I can try and self study but not sure how much I'll get done on my own.

 

[KOOL-AID]

yo anybody wanna share came late, just got into coding and i'm liking it, doing stuff on C but i wanna dabble in the other shyt.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Aight so this looks nice, but where should a total beginner start?
