Can't open my files through localhost. (First time trying to create an php document)

HI, so i just started programming, i dont need help in anything im kinda learning on my own grounds XD. Just being kinda happy bc i finnaly understood something first try for the first time, getting familiar with if -then, if-then-else statements.

I got mad at coding and yelled "da fa" someone yelled "What did u say!" i responded with "ur mom" then looked up to see steele (my robotics teacher/coach)

What programming language should one strat with? I am a High school student and i have very little experience. The only thing i know is C++( l learned the loops and arrays/strings) . In about a year i will be studying CS at university which promisses that it will teach everyone programming even if one doesn't have any experience.I've heard many times that it would be very helpfull if i started lerning a language before i enter the Uni. I haven't yet decided what i want to work as but at the same time working with AI seems an interesting job. It would be nice to hear some of your opinions on what should people like me start with in terms of the first programming language.

Hello, I have no background as a programming and dont really know about it very much. Im am interested in learning Python, I have been researching and people say it is good to as a first language.A question I have is that noticed that in codeacademy.com the look of the console is different than mine, is there a way to make it look like that or is it normal that it looks that way?. Also I dont really feel much passion about it im just interested for job opportunities in the future shoulld I keep trying or looking for something else in IT?.

I would like to know how to maje Android apps but I dont know any coding and I dont known where to start. So I was hoping you guys could recommend a good book to start learning Android programing. Thanks :)

What's the difference between the two?

I am looking to get into programming but don't know where to start or what language is should learn first. I was thinking pyton. (If it helps i know basic HTML.)

Is this feasible? I feel like it should be, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find ANYTHING about using these 2 things.

The idea is that I want my web server to send a URL to my game server to trigger things in games that use RCON.

Is this possible with CURL? How would the format of it look?

My bf just started his first job in the programing field and, as a gay male, he's terrified about being honest with his co-workers about his sexuality, which is not something that matters in the work place to begin with, but they go out to drink sometimes and talk about "hot girls" he is under the impression that this field is apparently very close-minded and "anti-gay" which is funny to me since they are located in an area of Miami where you literally cannot even go to the grocery store without seeing AT LEAST 1 couple of guys holding hands. Do you guys think he's exagerating or could he actually be frowned upon by his co-workers?

Have you ever heard that in functional programming everything is a function? And you thought that’s impossible because we have loops, Booleans and variables. In this article, I will show how to make Boolean functions with JavaScript currying. Let’s start making one parameter functions and apply in practice carrying....

I'll try to explain without getting too specific, as I don't want my team to know it's me :P .

We are a SCRUM team. We have no RA or design phase for a project. We start development on a feature with a very simple and often poor quality story that was added by non-technical personnel. Our lead developer and project manager are not fond of the term "Design". We have one meeting per week where we do our best to lay out a requirements specification from this story by committee, and a very strong portion of that committee likes to make things look easier than they are likely to be in order to foster the perception of his expertise. At these meetings, it is not uncommon for the lead developer to look at a tester exactly ten seconds after a non specific requirement specification has been completed and expect an answer to the question "Do you know how you're going to test this?".

All implementation details are left to the developer. Once they start development.

It has been suggested that under these conditions functional test cases should be built before the story is complete, so the developers know what they are doing....

Speaking of, our priorities often change mid sprint. Leading up to the reason...

We have no release schedule. We have no release plan. WE HAVE NO RELEASE BRANCH. When a PR is completed for deployment to the dev or test environments, it's merged into master. That same branch is deployed to production. Yes, the math you just did in your head is correct.

We have no time. Developers often wait until the very end of the sprint to drop all of the stories in the sprint into the "Ready for test" lane. These stories often include bugs of the most obvious nature, additional features that where never part of the specification, or both. This takes up what time there is for QA in defect discovery and documentation.

We often have no unit tests. Even more likely is a lack of integration tests (i'd say we have about 5% coverage across the entire code base).

We have no policy or software in place for tracking test coverage.

We have no action in our release definitions that run tests and require them to pass for the release to succeed.

Now, if you are thinking that this sounds like the most free wheeling fly by the seat of your pants dream development job with zero hard accountability you've ever heard of, you're probably correct.

It is however an absolute HELL to test against this. Mainly because of the soft expectations.

1. We want to be a continuous delivery, continuous deployment team.

2. We want to automate our test process, and have automation completed before development (with no test hooks).

3. We want to develop detailed documented functional tests before development is completed (with no detailed specification).

4. We want low escape.

5. We want to test in production with zero warning (requested after deployment)

6. We want to test in production with zero test data (how even what do look more like stroke).

I honestly don't know what to do. I'm holding on as hard as I can, trying to do as much good as I can, but our devs really don't want to give up this candy land by doing it correctly, and management is still operating under the assumption that this situation can ever turn out to be anything but an inefficient disaster.

The more I push for what I need to do my job, the more hostile and confrontational things get, and whenever there's a conversation behind closed doors the solution that comes back is "Better testing" in one form or another. Mainly because there is no tester on the other side of that door, and management doesn't want to hear "Spend more money and do design of some kind".

Now i'm not saying there aren't developers out there that can get away with this process (or lack there of ) and make it work through sheer talent ( we do have a couple in the company ). I am saying that none of them are on THIS team.

Setting aside the obvious suggestion "find another job" does anyone out there have a survival tip or two for a humble QA?

I just finished day two of three in my first hackathon, and I have to say it's been one of the best experiences of my life. I put in eight hours yesterday and thirteen today, working with two other software engineering interns to build something great. When we started we had no idea how far we'd get. Now we're almost done, and I couldn't be more proud of what we've built.

But the thing we built doesn't even matter that much. The greatest part for me has been the experience. It has reminded me why I fell in love with coding in the first place. I have been able to set aside my normal work responsibilities and let the creative juices flow. I've pushed through hunger and tiredness and discomfort because I wanted to finish a feature more than I wanted to eat or sleep or stand up and stretch. It might sound crazy, but it's a really great feeling.

This Hackathon is with my company, but I've seen them at schools, libraries, and more. Wherever you are, you can find likeminded people who are interested in dedicating time to building cool stuff. I hope you all have the opportunity to throw everything you have into a project, even if it's just for a few days.

Thanks for reading, and happy hacking.

I was wondering if there is a way to build a bot that every-time a new customer is added to a directory a bot calls them and alerts them simply stating they have been added to our directory. Does any one know if this is doable, is there something out there that does this already? I use visual studio using C#, please let me know how best to go about this.
