How many of you actually write nontrivial code? It seems this

>>61850830
Ive made a method not only for fizzbuzz but also for checking prime numbers . What have u done kiddo?

>>61850830
so fuck off from /g/ back to /pol/

>>61850893
/g/ is my home board friendo, I just want to learn how many of is here actually belong.

Anyway, how is your python scripting going? Did you learn anything new?

>>61850830
I feel the same. Every time I post a thread about something little advanced than webdev, the thread dies.
Personally, I think all the ricing fags should die.

>>61850830
I am currently in the process of writing a rendering engine.

>>61850830
Depends on what you consider trivial.
I find that simple solutions often work a lot better, but I am creating solutions for problems where there are no solutions, so I guess it is not trivial.

>>61850830
About 3 of us.

I work as a developer. Maintenance on a sales/order/inventory software.

I've been using Java and c#/c++ for years. Nothing more than an autist with a hobby though.

Seems to be the trend of society at large. People have stopped calling themselves "gamers" and "geeks" and have transitioned to "coders".

Your board was deleted because you aren't welcome, /prog/

Its becoming more accessible to people who didn't get into tech ridiculously young, with things like highschool classes teaching the basics of linux or unfortunately, teaching them Python.

>>61853331
What's wrong with that? And why is it "unfortunate" that anybody is taught python?

>>61850830
I've been a software engineer for 2+ years. Once you actually start doing something everyday for money, you suddenly don't want to spend your free time talking about it. Coding specific threads will be primarily filled with people who think its still fun.

>>61853368
Python is useless. Even java (which is the AP standard for ap cs classes) is better than Python. Its only purpose is to teach pseudocode.

Also I never said anything was wrong with it becoming more accessible.

>>61853394

What counts as 'non-trivial'?

>>61850830
I'm a hobbist who has been writing an open source version of a game development tool (HBT) for the last two and a half years.

>>61853404
It's a fantastic scripting language and really nice to use for anything like making API requests or web scraping. It also has really nice libraries for interacting with databases, for instance. I agree that it might not be the best choice for a full application - even though the tools are there if you wish to use it for one - but it's hardly useless. When you don't need performance and don't need to think low level, Python is an excellent choice.

I have more than 10 years of pictures saved from 4chan, and sometimes I see a picture I like but I'm not sure if I already have it, so I made an image search program that searches through a database to find out whether I've already got a picture. This way I can avoid saving the same picture twice.

Not him, but I have. Python allows me to write code which controls machines and automates tasks, which is the very definition of programming.

Stay mad.

It has a database of all the images in my pictures folder, which is basically one big binary file with 12x12 scaled down versions of the images.
The search program loads in a 12x12 scaled down version of the input image, and compares each pixel of the input image with each pixel of every one of the images in the database, and returns the name of the image from the database with the least difference.
It's a pretty simple method, but in my experience it's very accurate as long as an image hasn't been flipped. It's also quite fast, a search takes about .176 of a second on my 10 year old core2duo

I'm writing eclipse plugins for 11 bucks an hour as a student employee. kinda fun.

>>61850960
My pythons going decent.

I just finished transferring my python crypo library into c.

Got functions for modular inverses, prime number sieves, gcd, detecting english, generating RSA keys, primality tests, and mersenne prime generators

I've written more than a few nontrivial things but proving it would require me to link my bit bucket / Github and I'm not comfortable sharing that with you /g/.

>>61854576
Very nice anon, bravo.
What about the database file, do you generate it each time you add a new picture?

>>61850830
I'm doing front end work, as well as other cofounder duties for a startup company

>>61854814
Thanks. Yeah, I have to rebuild the database file whenever I add new images, but it only takes about 30 seconds. I could probably make it a lot more efficient, but since I only update the database once in a while (maybe once a week) I haven't felt the need.

>>61854799
Why host on more than 1 git repo?

>>61850830
In my master thesis project I had to work a lot with R in order to clean the shit cluster fuck of data that my professor had given me. I had to write a loop for everything because I was dealing with around 1 mill observations and +200 variables.

>>61855034
Yeah I will definitely get around to optimising that part of the program eventually.

>>61850830
I run an ISP if that counts. Albeit a wireless one.

That is the best that I could do to be honest. The dataset is divided on 15 groups and I had to analyze each group individually.They have been collecting their shit data for over five years and they don't even have a data analyst in their department so I was their slave doing everything for free and even with that they are not impressed even after I produced some very comprehensive graphs and shit. Fucking ungrateful faggots, I will commit a murder if I get anything less than a full mark for that shit. Worst part of it all is that they don't know jack shit about statistics, not even the basics.

>>61856235
I am open for all suggestions senpai, R seemed the way to go because it is and I am familiar with it. I never bothered with Python, is it worth learning?

>>61850830
I do kode in html and css. Wanna join my startup?

>>61856305
Python is pretty handy for data analysis and such, it's my go to if there isn't already a package in R to do what I want it to do, but if computing efficiency doesn't matter just stick with R

I write SQL code for a living. I love working with data.

>>61856355
Thanks, that is good to know. and yes, efficiency is not a problem right now. I never had to deal with Big Data™ meme yet. When I get there I will probably be using some of the packages that utilize the GPU processing power.

Define 'trivial'.

I have written device drivers. I have written rendering engines. Currently at work I am necro-ing 25+ year old MFC/ATL code and adding features to it.

Simple stuff, but made MUCH more difficult due to loads of lost know-how, past bugs, workarounds and general technical debt.

>>61856305
Python is good, very easy to learn. numpy, matplotlib, and pandas are nice libraries to use.

Julia is also worth looking into senpai

>>61856461
Never heard of Julia before, but if Python is easy to learn then I will look into it. Just for the sake of adding it to my CV because being a Data Scientist™ is all the rage nowadays.

Julia if you were worried about runtime, since Julia is much faster than python/R/mathematica/etc

How the flying fuck does this have anything to do with /pol/? Have you even been to the board within the past year? Do you even know the premise of it? It seems like faggots here just like to say, "Fuck off back to /pol/" whenever someone says something they don't like. I never knew complete fucking idiots could actually process the shit that goes down on /g/.

>>61854992
Have you considered rewriting your program in Rust?

>>61853404
>Its only purpose is to teach pseudocode.
Which is why it's a good learning tool, you mong.

The "real world" argument for Java is beyond pathetic. It's essentially admitting that the language itself has no merit, so the goalposts are moved to being able to get a job, even though most Java programming work is about as skilled and dignified as flipping burgers.

>>61850830

Keep in mind that the longer you do something as a job, the less you enjoy it outside of the workplace.

This board was only ever extreme hobbyists and learners.

>>61853394
I never thought of it that way but that makes so much sense.

The last thing I wrote was a program that searches a directory/list of directories for any duplicate files and offers the option to delete either of them. Figured I'd clear up some harddrive space and couldn't find any good scriptable Windows tools for it that weren't slow as hell. It'd probably be trivial in most languages but I wrote it all in C (mostly just for fun, but also to keep resource usage low and for compatibility purposes, I wanted it to run on everything from Win95) including my own MD5 implementation

Before that I wrote a program that lets you delete files/directories without regard for NTFS file permissions or attributes because I was getting tired of being told I wasn't allowed to delete certain files. It also works under 9x but doesn't have any special effect outside of the file shredding option (2 passes with random bytes followed by another pass of 0 bytes before deleting) and deleting read only files.

It depends on what your definition of nontrivial is really, I haven't written any 100kLOC projects or anything but it's a bit beyond hello world stuff.

>>61850830
did you mean to write non-toy instead of trivial ? as in actual software development ? because project euler solutions for example are toy programs but they certainly aren't trivial.

I don't even know how to program.

>>61850830
wrote a recreation/emulation of the old Prodigy Classic service with a java server component and a .net client

took a break after that, just launched VS today for the first time in a year or so to put together a gui windows equivalent to pciutils

does that qualify as non trivial or am i laym for even mentioning vs?

>>61850830
i don't usually write over 100 lines, just automation or tools or fun. most i've written is ~5k for a physics engine experiment. mostly all in c#.

i hear about 150k salaries and 3.5k rent which implies to me that the net income is still larger than the national average, but then i hear about engineers barely breaking even with one or two roommates. doesn't line up to me

>>61850830
I guess things like various parts of a hobby OS and a GUI from scratch all written in asm, C, and a bit of C++ is non-trivial code, but that was long ago. Now it's mostly webdev and Python.

>>61850830
I started a project for home automation using java. Haven't gotten back to it.
Finished a python application for logging my nest data when I wanted to figure out how well a swamp cooler would work.
Other than that I write scripts for work in powershell and bash.

Not the poster but places like Seattle and Denver are far better. Your income goes a lot further.

I work as a PHP/HTML/JS developer, mainly on e-commerces and websites, changing a few things here and there on the source code or programming front-end pages. I also do Uni programming work and some side projects with Java and C.
I get what >>61853394 said, however I've been working with programming professionally for a year and I still like it. Not a big fan of PHP though, I'd trade it for Java in a heartbeat.

>>61860855
it doesn't line up because you have to factor in stuff like health insurance, commuting cost, and residence location. You could have a top of the line health plan, 5 minute walk to work, with a relative modest take home pay. Or you could have a 2 hr commute in your used sedan with a bare bones health plan you need to pay extras on with a large take home pay.
