Thread Rules
1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution.
2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20)
3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible.
4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks.

So, from what I've read so far, people say SC2 client knows everything about game and it's all in your memory, you just have to read it. Hence, what maphacks are said to do. Is this process called reverse engineering? How the heck do you read memory of an application you haven't developed? Is it called 'hooking'? How useful is it to learn as a regular software engineer or should I not bother?

What Nesserev said is correct.

Anyone have a hint on how to do this in python?

Got a bunch of nested lists like this:
[[a,b,c,d],e,f,g,h,[i,[j,k,l]]]

Top level list, I need all of the list members.
In the second level and above, I pick one out of the list and flatten.
Generate all possible permutations.

Feels like this should be easy and I've done this before.

I'll assume that [i,[j,k,l]] leads to solutions ending with [...h,i,j], [...h,i,k] and [...h,i,l]?
(Or do you actually really flatten them and end up with [...h,i], [...h,j], [...h,k] and [...h,l]?)

You can cleanly solve it with a recursive solution. Try to solve it for [i,[j,k,l]] first, and then use that solution to solve the larger problem.


Really have to flatten:

(Or do you actually really flatten them and end up with [...h,i], [...h,j], [...h,k] and [...h,l]?)


I did it with a recursive solution. Just not as elegant as I had imagined.

Does anyone know of any audio sources, like podcasts, for beginners in programming and computer sciences?

Primers for concepts, industry insights, whatever?

It's not juse sed you know. ":%s/{search}/{replace}/{options}" is one of the most commonly used commands in vim, which in turn is one of the most commonly used text editors among programmers.

I do agree with you to some extent and I often think that modern web development is kind of over-architectured, but on the other hand web development 2004 was terrible. Simpler, but much less flexible and a pain to maintain.

Web developement in general is just a clusterfuck of different technologies and ideas which slowly, over time, grew together and somehow mutated into what we know today.
I bet if we were to start all over from scratch things would become much much better. Better performance, less memory consumption, better security, etc.

But the problem is that it would be too costly to switch. Nobody wants to be the first to change to fresh young technologies when what you have already works.

We have started over again with XHTML2. It was super proper, rigid, beautiful, exactly what you would expect a group of scientists to come up with.

It was just overengineered and didn't cover the direction web apps were taking better than HTML5 did.

Anyway, looking back at the browser wars horrors that we came from the current state is actually remarkably pleasant.

Hmmm ... Looks more like a poorly designed project than the common case.

My company is looking for experienced (5+ years) programmers (mostly Java) in Berlin and does not pay Berlin "salaries" if anyone is interested. Must haves pretty typical: J2E, HTML5, JS, software architecture/design, cloud development, scrum, GIT. Any SAP experience a plus.

By "does not pay Berlin salaries", I understand that they probably won't pay me enough that I can apply for a blue card.

"salaries" is in quotes, seems to imply that Berlin salaries are a joke. No idea if that's true though.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

If that's the case, I'm up. I have every single must-have (and quite a few extras probably) except for SAP experience. Also, I have 3 years of experience instead of 5 but I'm confident I can match up with more experienced developers around (and come up on top more times than you think I would). All I would ask for is blue card minimum for the whole package.

Berlin was quite a cheap place as far as I can remember. Not sure about developer salaries though. But blue card minimum is 35k before taxes and I'm pretty sure that is more than enough for Berlin.

Upgrading to Visual Studio 2015 at work. I already enjoy this Visual Studio and I'm sure I'll appreciate it even more, but upgrade process is just slow. On the other hand, finally some more C++11/14.

Usually Berlin salaries are indeed a joke. Countless open positions for coders - only problem they pay 25k ... I am talking more in the range of 50-60k which let's you live very comfortably in a cheap place like Berlin.

Why is the capital city cheap? Usually capital cities are expensive.
