I wanna learn to make vidyagaems, where do I start?
Stop memeing and look around rpg maker and gamemaker studio

school
So I want to actually learn how to program. I know basic stuff like strings, booleans, if-else, etc. I have passed trough that crap numerous times (in C and Python) and then hit the wall because of all the crappy tutorials and free web courses.
Step by step, what books should I learn and when? I don't think that Code Complete or Pragmatic Programmer is going to be really useful this moment as I know next to nothing in general (compared to someone that finished CS college).
And what tasks or little projects should I do between these books? And please no codeacademy or "The Hard Way" crap. I need college-like or better structure not spotty knowledge.
Is this list of books a fine choice in proper order? Anything to add? To remove?

If you wanna learn a programming language, think up some kind of project you'd find interesting and try to make it. You'll get stuck and angry every step of the way, but that's the point.
Tutorials can only get you so far (syntax, conventions, etc.)

>think up some kind of project you'd find interesting and try to make it.
I need structure and details not spotty knowledge.
Like fuck if I am going to know what is heuristic method by making some frog-running-across-the-street game. I also need cold, hard base .
I am going to compete with college educated and highly motivated people.
>Tutorials can only get you so far
That's why I am presenting a list of books that people on Amazon and stackowerflow find excellent.
Any comments on them?
>>57982639
>I have passed through that crap numerous times (in C and Python) and then hit the wall because of all the crappy tutorials and free web courses
And the wall is you know the tools but don't know how to use them for nontrivial tasks? At that point it's time to learn data structures and it's where things will start to click.

It's a horrible language, don't.

After this, you learn in whatever direction you want to go down. For CS subjects see: http://4chan-science.wikia.com/wiki/Computer_Science_and_Engineering
So I just got optic fiber installed in my home, and for whatever reason my PC doesn't get the full speed
The guy had a laptop and it seemed to went ok in his, and said it's never happened to any other of his clients before. He was kinda busy so I let him go already and told me to call him tomorrow in case it's still fucked up
Im really weirded out, what's the deal with this?
the test on his said 200/200, then for me it's been like 1 (really)/200, or now this 2/30 crap
wtf
Maybe try it on another OS?
linux
>>57982520
>>57982641
yeah sure nice meme answers but the connection was perfect before and the guy was also using windows in his laptop, the answer is not to install another OS just to see it goes right the same in that
"(A*B*C)*(A*B*C)*(A*B*C)" Is this a sum of product?
Bump this shit
>>57982426
It's a product of products.
You can shorten it to 3*(A*B*C)
>>57982426
It's trivially a polynomial (as a product of polynomials), and all polynomials are sums of products

First for another day waiting.
Please no more german immigrant discussion.
Lets talk about dildos instead.
I order from Gearbest 5 days ago and it stil says that my stuff is in Packed status, but not Dispatched yet. Is this normal?
Do you think we'll ever see droids?
Like r6 or gnk droids roaming about, we have the necessary sensors for 3d spatial awareness and depth sensing as well as object/human recognition and tracking
Google and Tesla as well as Honda have decent ai for conversation and autonomy
Would they be able to have a big enough battery to last them a day or so, with their size surely you could make a large battery to fit in the centre of one
The only hurdle would be cost I guess, and profit that companies want to make
I'd love to see droids roaming about doing whatever it is they do

What are you hacking today, Anon?
>>57982119
nothing special, i just reread some NN(neural network) stuff.
>>57982168
Sounds pretty interesting, what kinda stuff are you hoping to achieve with neural networking?
>>57982202
desu i dont have THE idea. i maybe write some application for a smartphone to identify eatable shrooms. i need still learn quite much in that regard.

Because it does not point to the left in Word and to the right in every other application.

Slowpoke here. I don't even watch Jayz, but what the hell is with this RX480?
>less than 100w
>doesn't throttle
>comfy 60C
Not only that, but it then gets OCed to almost 1500MHz and it still runs less than 140W with similar temps.
This can't be just the silicon lottery, it looks too good.
>>57981783
>This can't be just the silicon lottery, it looks too good.
well it is. have you not seen mobile polaris line? all they are, are highly binned desktop chips. the mobile 480 is a full blown polaris 10. the regular 'ol desktop 480 but highly binned for low leakage.
what you see in that video is a taste of what AMD can do with the 480 if global foundry gets their shit together and starts producing better yields of 14nm.
>>57981985
>have you not seen mobile polaris line?
I haven't. I think I saw an Alienware laptop with a RX470, but that's about it. I just looked at their Pro cards, they have specs that would follow the RX480 on the OP.
GloFo needs to get their shit together then, Polaris is actually stupidly good in efficiency despite packing nice hardware.
On another note, if the tweaks are refined, then we're definitely seeing a Polaris refresh next gen as the RX570. I wouldn't mind this refresh if we would see better Polaris performance all around in the $150-$175 pricerange.
I'll wait for navi, cus multi-core GPU. My 390 will last until then.
the extension on the top of the pic doesnt fit in my new gpu, so i pulled it out of the red 6 pin
should i just ignore the extension and put red straight in, or is there another cable i need?
>>57981720
anyone?
>>57981720
I can't tell what I'm looking at from your picture.
I assume you bought an EVGA power supply (mine had red cables too)
If it's red then that's for the GPU. Usually it's an 8 pin (or pair of 8 pins) but on each 8 pin connector there's a 2 pin that doesn't need to be plugged in giving you a 6 pin and yes it should plug right in.
Basically, with PC power, if it fits, it was designed to go there. If it does not fit, check your orientation and try again, then if it still does not fit then it does not go there.
Are you using a modular PSU?
Install Gentoo
So I want to make an internet enabled "radio".
A dumb device that would have a volume slider of some sort, and could be easily turned off and on.
I want to stream a shoutcast stream from the unit.
Rasp and similar SoC boards look ok, but how would I implement the on/off, and volume parts?
For the functionality, I guess a bare system boots, and auto starts a media player in cli.
Which tries to reconnect forever if connection is lost/breaks up/stream dies.
(My name is not Ahmed mind you, this is a radio, not a clock.)
do you want to listen to the stream on the raspi or do you want to pass it to another device?
>>57981656
>how would I implement the on/off and volume
Probably something like this

A button and a slider hooked up to GPIO pins
