Can I ask beginner questions about JavaScript in this topic?
Dylan Gutierrez
yes, you can ask anything as long as its programming related.
Jayden Rogers
Please don't shitpost in the OP.
Brayden Brooks
Which functional language is good for start?
Jeremiah Anderson
Holy shit, kill yourself.
Yeah, avoid straight HTML/CSS shit, though.
Julian Allen
Haskell
Lincoln Reyes
There's no Code of Conduct in the OP to stop me. If you think we should establish one, let's discuss it.
Nicholas Diaz
Scheme. Avoid the Haskell meme at all costs.
Brayden Miller

Kayden Richardson
Learn both.
Joseph Scott
Well, I'm learning how to use objects. I made a variable containing three keys which are all simple functions. I'm trying to run an input through all three functions and log it to the console with a for... in... loop, but I'm not sure how to do it. I can't seem to get the input to actually go through the keys themselves.
Jackson Diaz
Follow the fucking well-established OP format. The OP isn't your personal shitposting space. Adding a bunch of shit into the OP and/or posting a retarded image will set a terrible tone for the entire thread, and there will be much more shitposting overall. Just look at threads with frogs, US election or trap OP images.
Owen Reed
Learn Erlang.
Nicholas Brooks
I've got basic knowledge of Python and C++. What's the best book to guide me into Java? I'm reading pic related just for general programming skills and it's pretty good.
Asher Fisher
Post code.
Daniel Howard
What do traps have to do with programming?
Carter Green
unlearn Python
Sebastian Ortiz
It follows good practice. It includes /dpt/ in the title, and links to the previous thread. Those are the only consistent features of /dpt/ OPs.
Bentley Ortiz
Erlang is useless.

I'm working on a desktop wallpaper randomizer that supports multi-monitor setups. Its working great, but only on GNOME right now. Is there some *nix way to set the desktop wallpaper without having to worry about figuring out what DE/WM the user is currently running?
Otherwise, I'd just have to write some routine for every fucking DE/WM out there... Right?
Carson Martinez
What do traps have to do with what I said?
>it follows good practice No it doesn't, it reads as an autistic rant by someone who just got here and is into "the memes"
It's the FizzBuzz challenge. I thought running the numbers through the three functions would be a good place to start.
Asher Anderson
Are you new? It's been >/dpt/ in title >Old thread link >What are you working on Sup Forums? for years, and NOTHING ELSE.

>and NOTHING ELSE. Obviously this is a pretty shitty thread thanks to OP (who is definitely a faggot among faggots) but this plainly isn't true
Carter Wilson
>it follows the bare minimum qualifications of consistency so i can use the rest of it as an epic meme space x--DDDDDDDDDD 1) This is what your post reads like 2) No, see for the ACTUAL CONSISTENT BODY OF THE OP
Justin Thompson
Use Feh
Angel Baker
I bet you thought the umaru threads were acceptable or some shit. Anything besides the standard /dpt/ format has always been plain shitposting.
Cameron Campbell
But I don't like polish notation.
Justin Roberts
Then learn Haskell instead
Liam Ortiz
That template is ableist, as it presupposes that all Sup Forums posters are able to work.
It is helpful and informative for new readers, unlike the common "miyuki-chan edition, traps are best programmers!" nonsense.
Jason Young
Ok I installed pillow, how do I use it to draw shit?

Because community guidelines need to be maintained. If you let newfags walk in and act however they want, the place will devolve into crap even more than it has.
Ayden Parker
Where does it say those are the guidelines, or law?
And only a newfag calls others newfag you autistic retard. Get over it.
Jace Phillips
Shit, you're right.
I originally started this because I'm too dumb to figure out if feh can set a different image per screen, but now that I'm generating one image that spans all the screens, using feh would be simple.
Thanks, user.
Elijah Cruz
There is the stock XORG desktop that you can set with nitrogen or feh, but every faggot DE draws their own in a layer on top. So you will need a switch case for every one, sadly.
It's your fucking job to lurk more and find out, or fuck off. Do you walk into a chess club, start making a ruckus and pissing everyone there off, try and force them to play checkers instead, and get defensive when they tell you to piss off?
James Gonzalez
Are there no real answers here on /dpt/? I just want to learn Java so I can get out there and get my first job programming. Thanks.
Camden Myers
Unsurprising that people who like Javascript are incapable of listening to reason
>only a newfag calls others newfag
Nathan Young
Java is a horrible language
James Evans
You don't just 'learn Java'. It is a fool's errand. Learning concepts is more important.
Robert Howard
>only a newfag calls others newfag This is some bullshit made up by newfags
Nolan Robinson
but isn't it the most marketable one right now? I could go with Python or C++ instead, but it might be harder to get a job with those.
I'm working on the fundamentals with SIoCP, but I want to learn the Java language as well.
Isaiah Roberts
Is jizzbuzz really something that people should know thesedays? I asked a programmer friend who has been working for like 5 years what is it and he didnt even know.
Leo Harris
>sitting in embedded programming class >lecture is on bitwise operators >everyone is lost and confused
God dammit why did I cheap out on university choice.
I can only hope that WASM will purge web dev of this foul taint. I want SJW framework monkeys to leave.
Juan Evans
>Is jizzbuzz really something that people should know thesedays? No, you've completely missed the point. It's something that everyone should be able to do. Not something you should memorise and then be like "I've done this before" - it's something you should hear as a task and think "this is fucking easy"
Isaiah Taylor
>not using the /dpt/ grill >not asking the question kys
Jaxson Sullivan
C# is considerably better, but still very marketable. Also less Pajeet poo in your code base to clean up.
Gabriel King
yes I've been a programmer for 10 years in node.js and I can tell you it's the most common interview question I've gotten. Once you know it you know how to program
Mason Scott
Java easily has the most jobs, but C# is second place in that regard, significantly higher than Python or C++.
It's also much nicer than Java to use.
James Stewart
What are you working on, Sup Forums?

This is the new /dpt/ template. It is superior.

I sent over 200 individually tailored resumes since March (manually). And I went to about 8 interviews but got rejected from all of them. I believe tech interviews are totally f***ed up. I have been asked so many ridiculous questions that makes me sick for days just thinking about them. Every job posting I see asks for "SENIOR DEVS".
So I'm going to take a different approach. I believe in the numbers game. There are ton of companies out there. But its impossible for me to find them one by one.
So I'm building a bot to speed up this process: 1- Find a list of all companies 2- Filter only those companies that hire software devs 3- tailor my resume based on specific keywords 4- send emails 5- reply and arrange interview based on my schedule.
Currently I'm working on the first part. The bot finds a list of companies using major search engines. Each search engine has a certain query limit. So I use proxies to get around it. And when the system runs out of proxies, it starts data processing till the query limits are reset. Currently the bot harvested about 895,000 companies across the US. But only 9000 has been processed to see if they hire software developers.
For the data processing, I used AWS at first but it got pricey very quickly. So I built a nodejs version of my bot and used socket.io to handle connections. I run the bot as a daemon on each one of the library computers of my University. There are about 80 computers that I can access without credentials. Also I connected my slack bot to get live status from each processing node. I think at some point the system admin will notice the unusual CPU loads. So I renamed the nodejs process as chrome and I run the bot during busy hours to make it look like people are using chrome on those computers.
Anyway, so the only important part left is to automatically tailor my resume based on keywords. I don't exactly know how to go about this. Do I need to use some kind of machine learning method?

You could try a markov chain

Jeremiah Sanders
Yep, it's a reddit post, and this never happened anyway.
In a book I'm reading there's a question: What is a statement that introduces a new name into a program with memory set aside for a variable called? Is the answer declaration or definition? I assumed that a definition was for defining behaviour of a function whereas declaration is the right answer?
Zachary Lee
assignment dumbass
Wyatt Bennett
The thread is daily and has been for years so I think by this point the OP image doesn't really matter.
Joseph Evans
PHP Master Race checking in with this hot bit of code.
Gavin Campbell
Assignment is just another name for declaration.
Alexander Diaz
Scheme is good for the huge amount of recommended reading material on it. If you read the Schemer books and SICP, which you probably would while learning Scheme, you'd be a much better programmer and computer scientist overall. All things considered, as long as you're learning the paradigm, the specific language isn't horribly relevant.
Parker Moore

did you read that on know your meme?

I just finished SICP chapter 2 (out of 5). Will the next chapters blow my mind or should I start doing practical stuff?
Asher Brown
i = i - 1, innit?

You got another one to waste their time with the SCIP meme.

Infact, you're wrong. Assignment obliterates the current value of an object. Initialization is what I meant.
Michael Hernandez
I've been hobby-programming for over 10 years. I have no degree and no car, and I live in a town in a rural tourism-economy state. How do I into career?

Initialization is declaration + assignment. Assignment can be seen as a form of definition.

I think they meant
$n -= 1; // or $n = $n - 1; // or $n--;
But n is fucked up all over, there's no $ in front of it. Fuckin' PHP """""devs"""""...

>no setters not pajeet enough having no setters means that the pajeet in question at least used encapsulation correctly (even though redundantly)
Dylan Gray
I don't think encapsulation means what you think it means
