If it's a Windows desktop app, I'll probably consider C# first, though I'm starting to like the idea of using Electron (a nodeJS framework for building cross-platform desktop apps)
C# is a beautiful language, but the best characterization I've heard of it is "a laser rifle strapped to a donkey"
it's not very useful outside of a windows context
If it's a basic-bitch linux command-line program, I'll probably go with Python
But I've written some stuff in NodeJS, especially if launching other processes is involved.
*fin*
questions?
Where does C++ fit into all this?
I don't personally use it.
@Deleted User Do you understand the concept of low- and high-level languages?
Maybe? What is Haskell? High or low? Is Assembly a language or...?
Assembly is a language
it's as low-level as you can get
So basically everything boils down to processor instructions
The closer you are to writing processor instructions, the more "low-level" you are
Basic or Qbasic?
so a language like Python is very high-level. You're far away from dealing in processor instructions. You don't have to manage memory
basic is lower-level than something like C# or Python
but in its time it was pretty high-level
that feels right re Basic...
much lower level than most languages
you have to manage memory in C
Why do you think Linus Torvalds chooses C with all it's faults vs C++ or some other language?
The tradeoff is that C is very fast and can run in a great number of environments
Nothing wrong with C, really
just tradeoffs
Have you ever used rundeck or something like docker?
I've messed around with Docker, but haven't yet found the opportunity to use it in practice
it's a very cool concept. do you have any basic questions about it?
@Deleted User: Thanks for posting this. Using CoinBase, I might have contributed to the legal fund of certain Alt-Right defendant(s) -none of whom are convicted of anything! Mysteriously, I got a message from Uber that I was not supposed to use thier services for anti-Dieversity efforts. And then I got a message from Coinbase that I was being suspended, with zero reason given. For a process that is supposed to be untraceable and confidential, and LEGAL, I was astounded how our civil rights are erroded by the coorporate oligarchs that effectively rule ZOG.
No tbh my main curiosity is what people outside my normal sphere are using and how. I find it useful to see these utilities from a different perspective and how I can go about things differently.
@CharlesLaurence -CA they specifically said "anti-diversity"?
I forget exactly, but essentially YES.
@Placidseven - MO That's one of the best ways to learn once you're actively developing. How about you? What do you use and how do you approach problem-solving?
@CharlesLaurence -CA good grief. insanity.
I told them the only persons who are getting discriminated agains are Christian Bakers. It went to a dead-link email
@CharlesLaurence -CA out of curiosity, why did you choose to use coinbase instead of managing your own wallet?
of courrrrrrse
It was my first time buying bitcoin, and everywhere I looked it said I needed a wallet.
I have several books on Bitcoin and blockchain. Would you be interested in them?
