Should DeVos implement required programming logic classes for our kids? If you don't think so, what is your argument for being against teaching kids how to not think like an autist, to not use computers to do brainless social media crap, and to learn modern technological skills so they don't grow up dumb as hell like their parents/grandparents when it comes to technology?
Honestly, everyone could benefit from computer literacy courses.
They're not going away and a little knowledge of computer scripting can go a long way in automating repetitive tasks.
Computers shouldn't be seen as magic boxes that perform witchcraft.
However, the "everyone should program" meme is like saying everyone NEEDS to be a math major.
Not everyone is autistic enough to like math.
Why do you don´t teach the skills need to programming away from a computer?

Help /g/. My Inspiron 1546 laptop's battery died and I got a new one. I turned off my laptop and inserted the battery into the laptop to charge while it's off for 3 hours and when I tried to boot the laptop without the AC plugged in, it didn't boot and when I booted with the AC battery icon says "77% not charging" and if I unplug the AC the laptop goes off. What do?
Anyone?
It could be a shit replacement, or there could be something wrong with the charging circuit on your laptop. You need to have someone take a look at it in person.
You bought a shit battery. Did you get it second hand or refurbished??

Lets continue this >>58830417 discussion
Like >>58832696 was saying i think that gpu could be replaced since cpus can handle graphics input, but i think a turbo would be a better fit. Your engine can already run naturally aspirated but if you want more performance for specific applications you can add a turbo for higher fuel/air ratio and more power not necessarily for everyday use but for when your trying to get on the gas since turbos only kick in at higher rpms.
Also motherboard should probably be transmission since it is what connects your engine to your wheels and allows you to put down the power.
I still believe this >>58832269 is the best analogy for ram

Well fuck. Thread's over, everyone go home.
Intel damage control for brainwashing salecucks.
Why would they even acknowledge AMD?
This comes off as worrisome.
>>58837827
This is actually significant. Intel's marketing has revolved around pretending that AMD isn't a real company- like it's cheap shit from china or a knockoff brand or something.
>>58837827
>Why would they even acknowledge AMD?
Because when review sites in 20 days release info on their 8 core CPU that's faster, uses less power and is significantly cheaper than the Intel alternative Intel can't pretend anymore that AMD doesn't exist.
Also Intel engineers themselves admit Zen cores are competitive, so the rest of the month will pretty much be Intel damage control from that inflamed ass.

What do you think? does it perform better than a 500GB Seagate (witch died on my lenovo laptop after only 5 years) ?
>>58837677
dude your laptop mechanical hd died after only five years of constant use/ startups and shutdowns and you moving it all over the place while it was spinning up.
>>58837677
yes that desiccate packet is much larger than the ones seagate uses, your drive will be much fresher for longer.
>>58837703
i wont lie, i opened it. the head was stock on the disc, in writing position after a failed shutdown.
After only 5 days of opening it, it started getting corrupt.

fuck off with your pirated preview copies that have nothing to do with production windows
Hey /g/ heres hoping someone takes the time to read this, I would like to start programming and have a couple long term projects in mind, I have a non-fulfilling job in a field I no longer like and basically need a distraction now that I've stopped dumping most of my free time into videogames.
I *think* I would like to learn C, but am still rather confused about the difference between C, C# and C++. As far as I udnerstand it C is the oldest and simplest of the bunch with C++ adding on to it and C# being entirely different? I've also heard mention of python and java being good for beginners. The possibility of developing bad habits and a lesser understanding of how programming *should* work is something that scares me.
I am also slightly confused about what tools I would need to actually get started with programming, as far as resourses I figure text books and online tutorials are a given so any advice on those would be great. I am however a bit lost on what else I would need. From my limited understanding the bare minimum would be a text editor (notepad? notepad++?) and a compiler (code blocks? Im on windows if that helps) but I've also heard of IDEs but some people say beginners shouldn't use them? Any advice on this would be great.
I guess TL:DR
1. Is C the right choice for me? does it naturally build necesary skills that'll transfer to C++ and other languages or should I start with python/java and the potential pitfalls those might bring?
2. What tools should I download/purchase in order to be ideally equipped to actually learn programming?
3. Any resources apart from "google that shit" namely generally well regarded books/authors/content creators that I should look into?
>>58837508
1. C is great for a beginner.
2. Not gonna bother.
3. Installgentoo wiki is great for books/textbooks, /sci/ wiki has some good info too
C is not the right choice for you, or for anyone for that matter.
C++ takes a shit-ton of time to learn and is not fun to pick up 'as a distraction'.
What are the long-term projects you have in mind anon? If you just want to learn programming 'as a distraction' you might as well start playing video games all day again.
>>58837508
Install GNU/Linux on a laptop or something.
Install Gedit. (Or any other editor really, but Gedit is simple)
I think there are some free programming courses on Udemy.
In the end, it's more about not procrastinating with vidya, and Linux helps with that.
Godspeed.
