I discovered a very fast and lock-free inter-process communication method recently: the ring buffer. Fast IPC important in Python because you need multiple processes to take advantage of dual core CPUs. |

My programming career has come to an end once more.
This time it's because my work doesn't matter to anyone Sorry, I have not been online for some time. If your work doesn't matter to some people it matter to me if I may understand what you're saying. I'm beginner in programming and I love doing research. All I know now is HTML, CSS and some basic ASP, PHP, and Javascript which I use to write some web packages published on my Local machine using IIS. I just need people that we can work together to share knowledge and come out with something good. I'm even writing one now which can be use to Control Daily Transaction of a small scale industries. I need more encouragement from you any way. So don't let your programming career come to an end like that. Your work matter most. |

@Adeniyi G:
Unlike some other people you are a very nice person. I really appreciate your comments of encouragement. I hope to do some more programming in the future, but for now it's hard to find a useful program that is not boring (business software) or an interesting program that is not a waste of time (all other types)!

okay, first, i've to say i'm impressed seun.
However, i'm kind of surprised to hear you talk C, PYTHON, and the likes.
If your Software is going to be web-based, you'll need JAVA for speed, security and performance. Its both complied and interpreted.
I know HTML, XHTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT and flash, & dreamweaver. However, i'm not satisfied with client-side programming.
So, now, i'm into JAVA.
I think i'll take a crack at C++, for the fun of it.
Sincerely, its da bomb. Who says its hard?
Guys, hook me up!
Developer work as a team, better than alone. I'm looking towards building a team, or joining one.

If you are looking for a challenge. Try Game programming or Quantitative Financial Programming . Cheers

Thanks so much. I find your comments useful. I've been inspired to reach out to those rich executives!
HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAH HALLELUYAHHALLELUYAH At long last, we managed to draw you back into the field inspite of your claims that programmin doesn't sell in nigeria. @everyone else. I know from personal experience that this guy is good. make no bones about it. Seun is a very good programmer and in spite of the fact that he claims not to know C, as far back as I can remember he's among the best C programmers I have ever met. ffrom someone who doesn't give compliments easily realise that he really deserves it. @ Seun, I am interested in how you intend to sell your software.As you know, i used tto consider myself an "Ecommerce expert" but selling software online seems to have itsown quirks and funny features. |

Hu, I have done a little Java, Vb6, C/C++ and now full-time C#/VB .NET developer. I have done Desktop and Web apps. All I can say is that each of them has its ups and downs, just as enumerated above. It depends on the kind of app u are developing , who u are developing it for, etc that dictates whether its desk or web. I have written an HR app on desktop that completely failed (anyway, still hoping it will sell), other desktops that have succeeded: i have a school management app (on desktop) that gives me money which i believe i could not have made much if it was on web. Convincing a principal to hook up permanently with net would not be as sweet as u think.
Just check ur app well and decide. But as for programming language I recommend C#. It can be used for dektop, wep, smartphones etc.
GOOOOOD LUCK.

Security = yes Speed = no Performance = ? By the way Seun, why don't you try developing some developer tools. Based on the number of developers I'm seeing on Nairaland, seems it will sell. Beside that, since you're very familiar with the web, you can sell your product online. |

sell your product online. Developers are the worst targetted for business u know. i. they don't have money ii. they don't like to buy: by default they want to crack a good product and pass information on the next developer so that he can respect them iii. if ur product is good enough, be sure MS would steal it and release a better one next VS iv, x. You are an african. DO business not research GOOD LUCK |

Security = yes
Speed = no

Well i think you may be right or have a point. Speed, not the fastest, but performs optimally.
You don't have to woory about platform issues or sys upgrades.
Security, optimum performance, and neutrality. These are its strong features.
Vb.net is great too. |

, Hmmm,
Now I agree that Seun is a 'Master'.
Seun, I'm sorry for that dumb mail I sent you, Please forgive me.
About what you said, "Analysis Paralysis, "
I couldn't agree more.
Now, dig this,
Which is it going to be?
C# or C++. Net or C++/CLI?
The middle one being deprecated has thrown a lot of us coders right in the middle of a river of okro soup.
Help me. I need the advice of someone who knows.
My Python's for the Blender2.42 thingie. I'm tied to 3D.
But I need the ASP.Net framwork for WebApps that I haven't even phanthomed yet.
Chei! Wetin man pikin go do?

Seun,
Amazingly, my MD and I had a meeting about this yesterday. What if we get alot of web developers together, create a business platform, a revenue sharing module where the developers and the company can make money.
The company provides the platform (servers, hosting, backup and internet access) and the web developer do what they do best "CODE!". We host these web apps on our servers and present them to our clients (over 2000) in Ghana and beyond. Clients pay a subscription, we all make money. We work out a revenue model that allows web developers to make money as more clients subscribe.
Details that needs to be worked out will be:
1. Who owns the code
2. Co-ordination
3. languages to code it, etc.
We will start this project next month and I will let you guys know.

@alexis
Your forthcoming project sounds interesting, can wait to see if your company can pull it off.
I know you have not started your analysis, but would you be using Apache and Windows Server or are you going to focus on one platform(which I don't think is financially feasible)
Keep all of us posted.
@ruemu
I think you would need to first decide what core area you want to focus on, web, desktop or mobile application. After that you can start the debate as to what program to use.
But in the world of IT, things change rapidly, and now that everything seem to be emerging(web coming to desktop as in Adobe AIR, Flex, etc), its crazy but interesting.
Choose your area and language and I am sure people would be willing to provide you with great help
@Stanoz.com
I would recommend Visual C# (just been selfish) I am gradually moving into it from classic ASP, with the great features and capabilites and ease of creating application with Visual Studio, it is amazing.
But I think it depends what kind of web app you are looking, they are loads of technology out there today. Talk about, flex, Adobe AIR, PHP, Visal C#, Flash, to mention a few.

juintade,
When you have to use many languages to code, you have to agree on so many things. Most importantly we will agree on predefined sets or variables and all that stuff. All information will be held in a database, nearly all languages have APIs to talk to databases so I don't think this will be a problem.
That been said if majority of the code is in a particular language that runs on a particular platform, we will host those codes on the said platform and it will talk to a central database.
