Can I learn to code from just lurking Sup Forums for hours a day?

Yeah

no

Addenum: is posting in Sup Forums threads a good guide to bullshitting the professional language of software?

ftpbp

Yes, but you can only do fizzbuzz solutions

Sup Forums is basically a consumer electronics board now, theres no way you can learn anything meaningful about programming from it anymore

A thread died for this.

This, kek

There are daily programming threads full of people solving each others problems.

You might possibly learn to screenfetch tho.

He learnt everything he knows from Sup Forums, including how to use a keyboard, and he wrote the world’s most widely used operating system. Never give up on your dreams.

I'll give an honest answer here: yes (kinda).

So yeah, I guess it did me good to be on here, but you've gotta be willing to DYOR

Nice, this was exactly the type of post I was fishing for.

Crux of the matter is years on /lit/, /tg/ and leftypol have broken my brain's social centres. The only peer group I want to impress or relate to is an anonymous one that cannot judge my occasional failure - and for reason especially these shitty imageboards.

I've wanted to learn to program for awhile, and posting here seems like the tactic to really connect with my lizard-brain motivations. Thanks for the experience.

What does fizzbuzz mens in this context? I’m afraid I might be a fizzbuzz developer

>I even fap to anime every now and then
nigga what

You're trash

Im halfway through a machine learning PhD and probably know more than you do

Canada? I might know you
Not that cuck user btw

Sometimes I find decent career/interview advice here.

No, you learn dev by reading code and documentation and writing code and documentation

Sup Forums made me install arch and stopped me from wasting my disposable income on a new gayming PC.

Heck, I even decided to take a second shot at the CS degree after being a total failure dropout mainly because of you Sup Forumsuys.

Nope, Yuro

FizzBuzz are small tests to test good a programmer is at coming up with solutions to abstract problems, on the spot, but people have 99% of these test memorized already.

And your name had better be Sanjeev

Absolutely, along will looking at pics of obsolete tech un retro g!

maybe

is this copypasta

Yeah but you’ll probably get an aneurysm first

It might help you a bit if people occasionally post useful information, but the best way to learn is to get some good books, read, and experiment writing your own programs.

Of course not

The only thing you'll learn from doing that is how to shitpost about OS's and GPU's.

he is moot. Inventor of facebook

In a motivational sense, though?

No. Get a book faggot.
