Chetan Vashisht Structure and Interpretation of Computer programs was a life changing book for me as a programmer. I hardly got 10% of this monster of a book but it still changed the way I code. Another book is Hackers and Painters, a much lighter book with some great perspectives!
🤔 David I would be fine with reading either book! Hackers and Painters looks neat...there are a few history books about working in IT that I would like to read--Soul of a new machine is one that I've read about halfway through (great narration), and Fire in the valley is another I mean to start. || FYI, for others reading, join our Subreply book club if you're interested :) bit.ly/subreply-se...

Fisty Mcbutthole Does anyone have any recommendations for how to make the jump into software development? I'm currently doing the 2020 Java MOOC and coding through Automate the Boring Stuff. I'm working on making my github look better, but wanted to know if anyone had any good tips or resources for finally landing that first job.
🤔 David What sort of programming work are you interested in? Depending on the focus there are different resources that can assist you on your journey. If you are interested in webdev, my recommendation is to work through some of the larger, free projects--e.g. freecodecamp.org, theodinproject.com, open.appacademy.io--which would expose you to many tasks and projects. Aside from that, build things that you would use yourself :) if you have any questions feel free to ask

🐢 Keb Awesome! I just checked out your site and it looks great. Did you use Sapper by chance or just regular Svelte? I also just finished a small project with Svelte. I wonder how it scales.
🤔 David I did use Sapper! It was easy to setup. I definitely recommend it for blogs or other small sites.

🐢 Keb Anyone use Svelte after coming from another JS framework? What are your thoughts on it? It does seem to produce the tiniest bundles AND provide better performance than React & most other JS libraries. I guess if you can get over its initial weirdness and DSL, it seems like the obvious choice.
🤔 David I've been playing around with svelte for my personal website. I think that it's great for small applications.

🏀 Pr Watching these RNC and DNC conventions leaves me feeling angry, especially in the aftermath of jacob blake. how can anyone listen to these windbags and not feel a boiling anger?
🤔 David How? Through agreement, ignorance, or desensitization.

🚴 Aditya What's your coffee making technique?
🤔 David I take a few scoops out of the bag, put it in the filter, and press 'brew'...but seriously, though, I love my french press. I should use it more often. What do you do?

🤔 David Found a great article describing how to implement Rust futures in C: axelforsman.tk/202... I can't post it to lobste.rs yet (thanks for the invite :) ) so I asked someone in IRC to post it...anyway, I wanted to ask if anyone here has a favorite resource on programming in C (excl. K&R) and/or embedded systems?

Mhmm only i would first interpret your post and wonder why someone would want to construct a futures contract to buy/sell scrap metal... but no, org-which-must-not-be-named Rust lol

💩 Niklas What's your setup for personal backups? I've just started using restic on an old HDD I found, still looking for a good (cheap) SSD to buy. I think I should use at least two hard drives for backups, maybe even do some fancy RAID... By the way, this post serves as a REMINDER TO DO YOUR BACKUPS!
🤔 David I'm bad. I have ~10 TB of data to backup just from my desktop...I really need to setup a schedule for backing up certain things.

🐢 Keb as mentioned, you could host on pythonAnywhere, and then point your domain to your application running on PythonAnywhere's server. Heroku is also an alternative.
🤔 David maybe something like aws lambda or cloudflare workers?
