      I see someone finally embraced the fact that C++ templates are Turing-complete and you don’t really need much of the rest.

      Josuttis’s books are normally pretty good, lots of examples and a clear explanation of why you might want to use something, but oof that looks akin to a kick in the essentials.

      Even if you’ve no other reason to update to C++20, the fact that if constexpr gets rid of half the things you’d previously need to use SFINAE for, and concepts gets rid of the other half, makes it well worthwhile. Amazing how much it stops hurting when you stop doing ridiculous things.

      That book looks as old as the language itself

  This book…I read the whole thing, did most of the problems, and still don’t know a thing about abstract algebra.

    I noped the fuck out of that course. I’m sure it’s super interesting and rewarding, but I just couldn’t take it mentally at the time.

    For anyone who doesn’t know, this is what linear algebra looks like

    • Zink@programming.dev ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      y = mx + b

      It’s algebra. It’s linear. 😬

      One time at work I was trying to work out a least-squares fit using linear algebra.

      I have no background knowledge in library algebra, it felt like drawing a pentagram on the floor and chanting in backwards Latin.

      That’s not a fair example, I know what linear algebra is but can’t tell what’s going on.

      Change of basis would be my guess, but that’s pretty basic.

      You could’ve provided something far worse, like a manual construction of the Jordan normal form of a large matrix.

    I am a freak who really enjoys linear algebra. It’s actually quite heartening to discover that even amongst my friend group of weirdos, there are still freaks

  Everybody giving all these first year engineering books. Real engineers cry when they’re doing their CCNA certification. Image

      Do your CCIE and come back to me.

      And for what it’s worth, I did my BSc.Eng in Electrical too.

    I actually did study for the CCNA and was primed to certify. I decided not to go that route and found myself in a Java class a couple years later. I now don’t use either of those things.

  Java is neat: you just get what you write. There are things that really makes you cry and Java is not among them

    Just make the 200 line boiler code setup to make some

    system.stuff.thingy.log.println(“hello world”);

    Then it’s not compatible with the installed vm.

      Then it’s not compatible with the installed vm.

      This almost never happens, unless you do very niche things or have unrealistic expectations from your file system.

      Niche things include using obsolete cyphers for net communication or running java code on the ibm mainframe, not something you do day to day.

      Java has changed a lot since Java 8. Here’s a 3-line HelloWorld.java compatible with Java 21+:

      void main() {
          System.out.println("Hello, World!");
      }

    It makes me cry when modded minecraft uses 100% of my CPU and eats up 20gb of ram. (This is only a little bit java’s fault)

    • vivalapivo@lemmy.today ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      1. Java should not be used for game engine design. Stop-the-world events and poor shaders support do not help.

      2. JVM eats as much memory as you give it, so try playing with -Xmx param

  Finished compsci but interned as a computer technician and there I thrived. Instead of constantly having to keep up to date on programming: subscribing to journals, attending seminars and conferences, networking with other programmers, and of course (re)studying shit to get certified.

  • Maxxus@sh.itjust.works ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    That sounds like my time as a computer technician and then a network tech. Always chasing the next cert to stand out from the next tech. Once I switched to compsci I’ve never been pitched any certifications.

  Project Hail Mary legitimately made me cry there towards the end. I watched the movie afterwards and it wasn’t nearly as impactful (and I have opinions about the movie, even tho it was decently good), but the book just kicked me in the chest.

  I have that book on my bookshelf. It didn’t make me cry nearly as much as some C++ books.

  It didn’t make me cry but the greatest book I ever read was A Short Stay in Hell by Steven L. Peck.
