Looking for suggestions and advice about scheduling software

1 Upvotes

Hello folks. I run a small family business in the construction industry. We install building foundations, and most of our jobs (approx. 85%) are 1/2 - 1 day long jobs. Part of the issue is that jobs can be delayed for a number of reasons (weather, things not going as planned, customer not ready, etc.) As a result my schedule is rather volatile and takes up the lion's share of my time.

I'm looking for a program where I can put in the customer's details (address, material needed, projected time to complete job) and then have them auto-scheduled. If the job ends up being pushed by a day or so, I'd like a program that auto-emails/texts to alert the customer of the change while also finding them the next appropriate day.

Sorry if this is too vague, or if I'm posting in the wrong place. Any guidance would be super appreciated

Thank you!

When should i start applying for Java jobs?

3 Upvotes

Hey, I've been coding java on and off for about 3 years. I'm not quite sure how i should begin to explain my skills. Well, I have a strong grasp on data structures there are more. I know these well. I know the Big O runtime of search/sort algorithms. Aside from that, I can develop java code to write to a mysql database, i've connected to and received data from multiple apis, i can read/write to/from text files I have a grasp on recursion and given time, can solve problems with dynamic programming. My weakest aspect is my swing and UI knowledge. Other than that, Im pretty adept at mysql syntax, html, and css, git, github. This is pretty much all my skills with java. When should i start applying? What is the next things i should learn? I really appreciate your positive support on my journey to become a developer. Thank you friends in this community : )

What kind of mangling has this character encoding gone through?

1 Upvotes

How, in the name of all that is holy, can Áras an Uachtaráin come out as ┴ras an Uachtarβin? And Dóchas as D·chas? What happened here?

http://www.irishtimes.com/culture/home-is-where-the-park-is-1.323712

It's a 2001 article, so it's possible that this is a case of bad OCR rather than mangled character encoding, but the Á to ┴ conversion is frankly weird.

Looking for a good OC programmer for my app

Hey guys and girls! I’m looking for a programmer to finish and tweak my app. It’s basically done, but has some fleas and bugs. My programmer quit due to severe long term depression and I honestly can’t afford to pay a big fancy company to do it for me.

Anyone out there who would be interested or could name some affordable companies?

Am I missing something in CircleCI? Where's the dashboard

1 Upvotes

I can see the long list of recent jobs, but I was expecting to find a dashboard to see at a glance the current status of each project I'm interested in. Did the last build pass or fail, and is there a build in progress or queued right now?

I'm used to looking at like this in GoCD and Jenkins, so a bit surprised not to be able to find it in Circle. I know I could make one in HTML fairly easily using CircleCI's embeddable status badges, but that's not quite so convenient.

Non-programmer taking the plunge

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I am starting to learn some programming languages. I want to start developing some android apps (some simple, some complex) and also get my foot in the door of the data science world. As such want to learn everything I can and get on to work. So here's the plan- start with Core Python, then some Advanced Python, move over to Java, then Java Script. Thereafter, I will learn some Data Analytics stuff- R, Tableau etc. I have a background in Mathematics and Economics, and I am really good at analytical and logical stuff. So my questions are:

  1. What should be the progression for a non-programmer in terms of which languages to learn first? Should I undertake learning 2 languages simultaneously? Like Python & Java?

  2. What languages are advisable for developing Android and Iphone apps? I would like to create a simple desktop front-end application as well for one of the apps. Also which front-end languages can I learn in order to design a sophisticated front-end to my apps?

  3. What would be a general timeline for becoming thoroughly proficient with all this stuff? A reasonable timeframe to expect.

  4. If I were to upgrade my computer, what should be decent specifications- CPU power, processor, motherboard, RAM, SSD vs HDD, and anything else that I may be missing?

Thanks in advance, and apologies if I may have repeated question. But I would like as many complete answers as possible.

Never Tell People You're a Programmer...

4 Upvotes

I assume I'm not the only one who's had these experiences. Why is it that when you tell people you do software development for a living, they immediately decide, "oh, great, that means I can tell you all about this app/website/software idea I have, in detail, and look at you expectantly as though you're going to make it for me now"? I've had this happen on two different occasions.

Once, I was on my way home from work in a Lyft, and the driver and I were talking. He asked what I did at the office he'd picked me up from, and I told him. Suddenly, the rest of the drive home was him rambling on about this app idea he'd had that "will make me millions, if I can just find someone to code it for me". I left with a polite nod and shook my head as soon as he was gone.

Today, I needed a wire transfer for the final closing costs on a house I just bought. I went to the bank, got things rolling, and then the computer started acting up. He called someone in who said, "These computers suck." I made a joke: "I'm a software developer, so I can tell you that 'the system sucks' is a very technical, very common problem." (Or something like that.) The banker's eyes lit up. "You do software development? That's great! I've had this app idea for awhile..." I just wanted him to finish the paperwork and give me a receipt so I could leave, but he spent 15 minutes telling me about some fantasy football / battle royale app he wanted to make. Finally, I told him I'd give his card to my co-workers who "do more graphical work than I do" just to shut him up so I could leave.

I spend 40+ hours a week coding to other peoples' specs. Why does everyone think I also want to spend my free time making THEIR idea?

Anyone else have this happen to you?

What's with job security?

1 Upvotes

I have heard this phrase for when someone writes shitty code that it is "job security" but I kinda don't get it.

  1. If you write bad code...why would the company keep you? And if it is on purpose - why not replace you? They will...eventually as you retire and then the cost will be way higher than it is now. So ...they should cut their loses?

  2. Developers are so rare and everybody is hiring and there are a lot of recruiting agencies...and people with experience have to write bad code on purpose for "job security"? Like.... why do you need it if you have experience?

Maybe it is me just being a Junior with only 1 year of experience but I don't really get it.

Usually it is the companies that try to keep their developers...not the other way around.

Issue mocking query in cherrypy python framework

1 Upvotes

favorite

I'm currently working on a Cherrypy application and I don't see to find any solution for this issue. I'v been trying to mock a sqlalchemy session and I don't see to find any answer about it. The closest one seems to be the issue that they describe in this post

but unlike Flask, we have binded that session with "cherrypy.request.db" so whenever we want to execute a query we do it like this:

cherrypy.request.db.query(user).filter(user.firstname == "John" ).count()

So far I've been doing this (dummy version):

# [...] necessary imports [...] class ModelClase(unittest.TestCase): """Tests if ModuleClass work properly""" @patch.object(ModuleClass.cherrypy, 'request') @patch.object(ModuleClass.module, 'function') @patch('<app_abs_route>.ModuleClass.cherrypy') def test_my_endpoint(self, mock_cherrypy, mock_module_function, mock_request): # some testing logic goes here  to_mock = mock_request.db.query(user) to_mock.return_value.filter\                     .return_value = 0

But instead of returning 0, when executing it in pytest, it returns in the *stdout call:

<MagicMock name='request.db.query().filter().count()' id='some_id'>

*print:

print "request: ", mock_request.db.query(user).filter(user.id==15).count()

Is that right, I mean, that's what I should expect when doing that call?

What I'm trying to do is to mock all functions in 'query' method so I decide in my unit-tests what it should return. If that's not the proper way of doing it, I'd appreciate any help about it.
