I'm completely new to programming, but somehow I've managed to end up in a situation where I've agreed to make a cross-platform app for a family friend's ice cream truck business.

I've been studying C++ on my own time, but I just wanted to ask here... what kind of stuff should I be studying in particular, to do something like this?

The goal of the app would be to be able to select different varieties of ice cream and then select the denomination you're being paid with to tell you the customer's exact change, and to hold all of the sales information and send it in to the boss man.

Not asking for anyone to write anything for me, so I don't feel like I need to be more specific. I just want to know where I should start, and that sort of thing. Thanks in advance for the help.

Holy fuck. This is the most jewish thing I've seen in awhile. Microsoft is putting advertising into the inbox of Outlook now. You can't even click on it to dismiss. It just sits there. I have uBlock Origin installed too.

I'm hoping someone here will be able to help me. I'm trying a configure a basic TCP server/client connection. It's literally an example I read out of a book. I can get the Server code up and running on my main machine but when I go about connecting the client from my laptop to the server it says that the server is taking too long to respond. Will post pics. I need some help configuring it to work. I'm just trying to sharpen my skills a bit and it's irritating that this example isn't working.

In a thread a couple of hours ago, some anon mentioned recording data to a cassette tape using a recorder, line in on a PC, and FLDIGI.
How would I go about doing this? Is there a better program? Do I need type 2 chrome tapes or will regular metal oxide be good enough?
Pic somewhat related.

Okay, so how do I edit /etc/apt/sources.list to upgrade Devuan from stable to unstable?

Note: Debian's explanation is worthless as tits on a boar.

Hi!
I have a question for You....
Is it worth it to pay more for Galaxy S8 over 2017 A5?
2017 A5 looks like a good phone...
S8 of course is the best one... But is it worth it to overpay? Is it really that much better?
