Took the networking route in school and now I regret not being a brogrammer.

>>56752419
Because I told myself I'd learn programming 2 months ago and haven't started yet

>tfw /g/ is tech illiterate non programmers
big surpise

>>56752427
this and too stupid.

>>56752419
because im writing a book

For the same reasons you're not writing a novel

>>56752595
about programming?

>>56752419
But I am.
I'm working on a portfolio so I can get hired and not continue this stupid fucking CS degree any longer.

Going to college for computers was a mistake.

>>56752419
because everything you can think of already exists.

>>56752467
you made the right choice

because the week is over

Because I don't have any ideas on what to work on, and if I think of something, itd be way out of my abilities

>>56755293
man I get this

I make software all the time.

One of these days I'm going to program a Linux taskbar from scratch.

I'm getting sick and tired of the piss-poor offerings available to me. Cinnamon's taskbar is the closest thing to a good taskbar and it has flaws.

I am. Taking a break for a bit.

I do C++,3D. But I realized that the software market is foobar. Big companies are mostly lying, stealing propaganda machines. They brainwashed consumers into zombies. If I try to promote my apps I get banned from everywhere. I live from alms and my last visit to the cinema is six years ago. Until 40 you are a slave after that you stop existing.

I'm a piece of shit programmer. No matter how much I know, everything I create is shit.

I wrote a life expectancy calculator in Python that asks a bunch of questions then tells you how close you probably are to death. I made an Android app that requests root access then bricks your phone. C is too hard for me. I have a domain and server space, and the best I can come up with is a media streaming server that I can't figure out.

I am trash and my life is trash.

>>56755555
samesies, also nice quints

>>56752419
Creating authentication portion of my app tonight hopefully.

Everything I need already exists and I'm not skilled enough to fix the bugs in the software I use.

>>56752622
are you me?

>>56752419
>Why aren't you creating software, /g/?

Because I ran out of Modafinil

>>56755716
wew lad.

>>56752419
But I am all the time. It's my job.

>>56752622
Wut u working on senpai?

>>56752419
I'm full stack, why aren't you?

>>56755851
I ran out and had to improvise with a bunch of shit I found on Amazon.

>>56752419
Because I'm just not that interested in it. I enjoy hardware & networking more than I do programming.

>>56752419
Not in my job description.

>>56752419
it's past 5pm.

>>56755716
Don't give up anon. I believe in you.

I'm creating software professionaly Monday-Friday. It's a demanding project and I'm too burned out to do it on the weekends. On weekends I just browse 4chan and play games. Fuck you.

>>56752622
i'd like to help on whatever it is. im pretty much in the same position. got a github?

too busy creating memes

emacs exists so there is no reason to continue writing independent programs

only elisp now

all other software is deprecated

>>56755540
Is there much need for a standalone proper taskbar? Most people who want taskbars use full desktop environments and those all have taskbars

>>56752419
I have no idea I can do without money and I don't have money to do the things I want to do.

I create Enterprise®™ software at work.

At home I'm out of ideas for personal projects :(

I have 2 years left of my degree and wanted to spend the last 4 weeks programming like there's no tomorrow to get an internship next year.

Yet here I am watching Netflix and browsing 4chins like the normie loser I am

I'm a web dev wageslave

>>56752419
>Why aren't you creating software, /g/?
I am

>>56752419
Because the C64 is hard as fuck to learn machine code on.

>>56758362
corporation or freelance?

>>56752419
Because I fell for the "CS studying" meme. After finishing stupid assignments - which will nobody care for after graduation - you're too exhausted to just sit down and PROGRAM something, because your Profs thinking that knowing how to solve integrals will make you the next Jew in the coding world.

>>56758490
Just stop fishing for top grades.

Average grades + good internships will net you much more than top grades + mediocre/no programming skills

(unless you want to go into academia)

>>56758442
Smallish company (dev team is ~25 people)

>>56753874
>you made the right choice

Definitely if finding work is what don't want.

>>56756607
It's easy to say when you just can't code.

I do personally, but if you ask in a more general term, then I think the reason people are not more active is that they do not know what to do to help.
People who have been in the industry for a long time have a different view of what is trivial information and what is not.

When I started, I found a lot of "documentation" which basically said that how easy something was rather than talk about how it worked.

I believe that if you document how things work, more people will be able to learn than simply telling them what to do.
