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. |

Yeah, the introduction to A* pathfinding on that site is amazing too.

Scala seems to be more popular (well JVM stuff you know, easier to get jobs + the Play framework seems to become quite popular in France), but the BEAM for Elixir just looks awesome. Then there's always Python or even Ruby but I'd like to get familiar with functional programming. How about some Erlang then?  I hear people build awesome stuff with it.
Well Elixir is supposed to be more flexible than Erlang right ? But true that I haven't tried the father yet.
Erlang probably doesn't have a Phoenix-like framework though.

Well, we will see. We have our first project now, and there's been pretty much no review beforehand. Some stuff is coming back to me.. slowly... as I look things up.
It might be a lot of little stuff I don't remember. But if it's gonna turn out to be a "well, we will help you on the forums just post here!" kind of thing I will stay more reserved about the questions I ask and try to look more of it up so I don't spam/annoy the hell out of you all.
edit: it's coming back... passed the first public test on my project. feeeeeeeeeeeeeelin good lol
Just posting all your java questions here is probably fine. As long as it's not of the form "please do my homework for me" lol.

Plus it's a good thing to have experience searching the internet for the solution you need. You won't be reading a book or two each time you run into a problem at work. And there is a bit of "skill" involved in searching for the right terms.

Does anyone do mobile? I've been getting back into Android after a while and I have problems with architecting stuff like fragment synchronization, and I can't find good sample projects that actually properly architect stuff. It's frustrating. Just looking for samples atm with dependency injection preferably using Dagger and EventBus.
It's kinda gross how people just suggest using the global event bus to make things easier. Like, yes, you still have to subscribe and push specific events, so there's some separation of concerns, but is that really best? Why not just have examples with a local event bus?
Similarly some people seem to use Presenters, some people don't. Some people use MVVM (wat)? Some people inject arbitrarily all over the place. It's kinda annoying...

Could anyone offer me some guidance?
I'm going for an associates in information security and like programming, but i'm not very good yet as I only know some bash and python. Eventually I would like to branch into incident response or a security analyst role.
What programming skills would be most relevant?

Python and system administration are the most relevant I believe. You should probably read the books like Grey Hat Python and Black Hat Python to check out some other tools and how it's done.

Does anyone know of any good .net tutorials? I was planning on doing my personal blog in node/angular 2, but I'm looking for a new job at the moment, and since something like 70% of the local job market is .net, figured I'd be better off skilling up in that.

general question to php developers. I have 0 experience so I have no idea about it. Do you write your php code as object oriented when you design backend or procedural programming?

procedural is considered antiquated these days

This. Plus, you rarely see any procedural PHP in the modern world outside some simple cron jobs that need to be run on the server.
Also, if you have 0 experience, please start working on some framework ASAP. Preferably Symfony since it'll teach you a lot of good stuff and will let you transition to other stuff relatively easily (after getting proficient with Symfony JEE Spring seemed like its retarded redneck cousin).

Isn't a mix of OO and procedural pretty standard?
