namikaze:I cannot find any use of this coding test on Amazon shopping site. Their site only has these types of sorting: Price: Low to high, Price High to low, Avg. Customer review and Newest arrivals. None of these requires this type of coding test. All that is needed for these are to use the sorting provided by the programming language to achieve these basic kinds of sorting. This kind of coding test is only useful when it comes to games programming as you'll have to store data in arrays and manually check and retrieve them using the quickest logic possible. It is not possible to accomplish this coding test in O(1) as you cannot accomplish this task without a nested loop. O(1) describes an algorithm that will always execute in the same time (or space) regardless of the size of the input data set. bool IsFirstElementNull(IList<string> elements) { return elements[0] == null; //Source: https://rob-bell.net/2009/06/a-beginners-guide-to-big-o-notation/ } |
Devdevdev:True. Reading a book today with the amount of resources on youtube now, is like riding a bike from Nigeria to Europe instead of travelling by air. Like you said before books are only good on the introduction page. Even books are no use for referencing today when you have stackoverflow and online documentation of the language you are learning. You only need to quote from a book if you are at uni as it's a requirement. |

Anonime1105:Cyber security is now a regulated profession in the UK. The UK government has set up a new Cyber Security Council bringing it in line with other professions such as law, medicine and engineering Source: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-uk-cyber-security-council-to-be-official-governing-body-on-training-and-standards Hopefully software development too will catch-up soon! |
tensazangetsu20:The exam was not well structured, that's why it did not work. The software engineering exam was designed only for those who have a mechanical engineering degree or a physics degree. What they did not take into account is that not every software engineer will be writing code for an airplane autopilot or for a rocket for NASA. They should have designed the exam for different sectors and within each sector like aeronautics and space exploration they should have broken it down into different specialisations like in medicine. |
If there is no guarantee of pay for a take home test then it's a BIG SCAM |
div111:No worries bro |
1. Demo in JavaScript for beginners to learn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVqczFZr124 2. Then watch the video series on this site when you are ready to start real bitcoin-qt mining with C#: https://www.larsholdgaard.com/bitcoin/ 1. Introduction video – how to make applications with Bitcoins 2. Basic understanding of Bitcoin concepts 3. How to run a Bitcoin server (on Windows) 4. How to learn JSON needed for Bitcoins 5. Example: Communicate with Bitcoin-qt using C# / .NET 6. Bitcoin C# wrapper |
TheOgaBoss:You are right. Using a JavaScript framework for a simple application is like using a heavy goods trailer when all you need is a car to move about. |

LikeAking:True, it has created more programming jobs as there are now dedicated front-end teams for theses new JavaScript frameworks |
Does web development make any sense at all? Is there something I’m missing that I should know regarding front end development, or is it really just this bad? https://www.quora.com/Does-web-development-make-any-sense-at-all-Is-there-something-I%E2%80%99m-missing-that-I-should-know-regarding-front-end-development-or-is-it-really-just-this-bad No, it doesn’t make a lick of sense anymore. I’ve stopped calling myself a developer. I build websites. I can’t honestly say I develop them anymore. I see absolutely nothing wrong with HTML/CSS/JS. I’m highly experienced in all three and they make perfect sense to me. I know exactly how to build a website. But I no longer have any idea how to develop one. I’ve reached the point of expertise where I do not need to look up how to do something in HTML or CSS (except for maybe cutting edge properties like CSS grids). That doesn’t mean I can stop learning - it just means I learn the new things and get to work. But with today’s web, I need to spend enormous amounts of time to figure out how to set up a project, figure out which bundlers, frameworks, component libraries, dependency injectors etc. to use just to help a development team fix their typography issues. Maybe I’m the one who’s missing something. The level of complexity and expense in time and money needed to do simple things is astounding. I understand complex apps need these things, but not every site needs to be a complex app. And not every tiny quirk CSS might have needs to be solved with more and more complex libraries and frameworks. I understand if you’re scaling microservices for some mission critical app. But what it takes just to do a simple UI on a form button using whatever today’s popular buzzword technology stack might be, no longer makes any sense to me. A member's comment: Exactly. And when another build tool or bundler is created, promising to fix this exact problem, it adds hours to development, in the form of discussing which one we should use now. And it adds miles to the learning roadmaps for new developers. And for experienced devs – it adds things inside a blackbox of npm scripts and tooling where they don’t understand everything that’s going on when it works, and less when it doesn’t. |
With a BSc in one of the biological sciences you will get a good job or you can go into teaching. The only issue you will need to sort out with your wife is child care if your kids are still in primary school.

Trenchkid005:Most universities in the UK have a foundation year for those without A/Levels. |

gabiomoesu:I would recommend this too as DisGuy has suggested. DisGuy: |
Bamzoga:No problem bro. Remain blessed |
Bamzoga:Cyber security is now a regulated profession in the UK and there is huge demand for cyber security professionals in developed countries.

Bamzoga:Go for Bolton: University of Bolton, Deane Road, Bolton. BL3 5AB |
Bamzoga:Which Campus? |
Fhantom:Updated No problem bro. Passion is more important in selecting a career and one that involves programming is great. If you plan to study in a developed country check that the university is in the top ten in that country. This way you will be able to do a year in industry during your studies and this will help you to secure a job in aerospace engineering or in other industries where aerospace engineering skills are required if they would offer sponsorship if you are not a national of the country. All the best. |
Fhantom:ADA UML Formal Methods |
9iceboi:Passports Ideally, your passport should still have at least 6 months validity when you return to the UK. University College London: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/students/go-abroad/study-abroad-and-erasmus/preparing-go-abroad/passports-and-visas |
Evaberry:York has a top rating but no shopping complex nearby that is a walking distance |
