One of the most important thing to consider when picking a language for a new project is your level of proficiency in that language or framework. Though its ok to learn on the job, your ability to succeed or fail in the project depends on how well you understand the language or framework.
Is it a new language or framework that is not battle tested by the community of developers? If it is, i strongly recommend you dont try to use it for a production project. Can you point to 1 or 2 working applications or sites using this framework or technology? |

Febup: The winner is C# and .Net Core 2 as it is Open Source, has very strong security built in or you can add your own and you can host your web or windows application on Linux, Windows, Mac OS, Unix and other platforms, now show me any other language that gives you all this straight out of the box? Unfortunately as powerful as c# is, it can't run on bare metal.  |

You have to create a seperate layout folder for each of the screen resolutions you want to support. Note not all views in your application would require to have a separate layout xml, some would be responsive and work across screen while others would require you creating their screen size specific layout file. Happy coding... |
Programming › The Best Programming Language Is... by seunthomas(op): 4:37pm On Apr 06, 2018 |
Well this thread is basically about controversy.
Some people believe Java is the best programming language due its cross-platform (write once run anywhere) nature (Unfortunately today's Java has not achieved true WORA).
Others think its C# and the accompanying .Net Framework.
Some die hard C fans will say its C because no language can seat on a machine like C.
Some say its Javascript due to ease of learning and use.
Others PHP because really PHP is really moving outwards to new domains today beyond the web.
And some geeks like me will always love python any day cos we can easily prototype with it. Whats your take? Whats the best language there is? |
Programming › How To Pick A Language For That Next Project by seunthomas(op): 4:17pm On Apr 06, 2018 |
I am going to be writing a series on how to pick a language for that next project.
Most times the wrong programming language or stack may mean we spend more time on a project than necessary.
So how really do you pick your stack for that next project.
Please note i will only continue this thread if i see interest. |

kingvicky: Where is the vibe, the motivation? There is nothing that ignites the passion of those who really need to get a feel of that coding vibe in this section. It's a cyber-graveyard filled with dead threads most of which are zombies (threads made years ago yet with recent comments). I'm quite at an intermediate level as regards coding but there are times I feel like giving up or trashing that feeling to write cool programs and I go to forums to get motivated but what I see here is a morale killer. You can spice it up my brova. Enough wailing in this section... |

Tboy80: Good day everyone. I'm currently working a project which would kick-off (development) next month. Just before then I'd like to work with a fixed budget so I can make the necessary arrangements before work starts. So I'd like to know how much it would cost to hire a developer to develop a native Android and IOS version of an app. The app is basically a university community platform for students to collaborate with their instructors and other students in the university. it would have social, educational, and some other features to engage the students with the app. I have designed(mock-up) the UX and I would appreciate if the programmers in the house can help me with an estimate of how much a programmer would charge to develop both Android and iOS version of the app Send me a PM. You should have a proper list of features before i can give you a quote/budget. |

MediaPapi: Thank you for taking the time to explain.
Estimated audience on launch will be 20,000. We show only our content.
How much (in your opinion) do you think it will cost to hire a team to build/maintain a streaming site with a few 100 videos (at first) hosted on cdn? Budget like 3-5 million for development work and 3 million to host the application, videos and CDN for a year. |

MediaPapi: Hi there,
I was wondering how much it would cost to build and maintain a movie streaming site like Netflix or crackle?
Your answer should take into account- hosting costs, costs to hire a programmer, time it will take, maintenance costs, e.t.c A lot of factors need to be considered. You estimated audience on launch, number of movie files you are storing, do you plan to use a global CDN (using a cdn means your users get a better (lower latency) experience), do you have staffing, etc All this and more will determine how much you would spend. Mind you the 3.5 million my colleague here mention can't even handle your server cost (1 year) for a medium sized streaming site. |

Programming › Re: Why You Cant Write 100k LOC In A Year by seunthomas: 10:19pm On Dec 05, 2017 |
asalimpo: You like acting like an untrained kid. very illogical in ur response. re.tard means what to this argument? Do some thinking and stop spewing meaningless hate. I created this post basd on careful analysis then i generalized and gave generous ranges making my claim encompassing and plausible. a novel of small print and 200 pages will take the author btw 3 - 6 months or more to write. read the lines on a page of small print paper back,they are usually 30 lines per page,including lines with just one word. times 200 = ~6k lines a larger book may have 300 pages (think mario puzo god father etc) that's 300 * 30 = 9k lines. Now compute the equivalent in 100k lines . that's about ~11 - 17 paper back books in a year!! Bros, if you say that's not herculean,your misguided and living in a fantasy world. i'm not debating code quality or prowess. I'm simply saying, the physics of coding - average lines of code per hour (including refactoring (which removes dead codes) - makes 100k loc in one year extremely herculean not utterly impossible but so hard it becomes likely implausible. just like the best authors are limited by the physics of writing. The best authors churn out around 2 books a year!! Is it because they're not fast writers or dull thinkers. a 100k loc will cost you btw 2000 - 4000+ hrs. Not kids play. It can bedone in a year but a great cost. Great cost on your body and lifestyle maybe your health. Can your sit down at your pc for 4000hrs in a year? Some can,but others will spread the task over more periods. Also look at others who've written large blocks of codes, they dont pour it out over 1 yr, but over years!! I think you just want to argue. Anyway i will not respond to you again after this comment. You can't go far in programming for 2 reasons: a. You have created an invisible barrier of limitation for yourself based on your reasoning (Good programmers dont do that, they are challenge hungry and coffee junkies. While you sleep they are working...) b. You have no regards or little regards for people ahead of you.(Even myself i pay homage from time to time to those who are far better that me. They do exist....) I hope you can learn from this 2 rules above and adjust else i give you 5 years, if you are still writing code you would be doing only drag and drop with CMSes. SELAH.... |
Programming › Re: Why You Cant Write 100k LOC In A Year by seunthomas: 4:09pm On Dec 04, 2017 |
asalimpo: hmmm ... is this how u degenerate. It's now a matter of fight. I was logically refuting your claim based on practical experience. That you can write 1m loc in a year (a physical impossiblity by the way) doesnt mean your code or program has superlative technical merits!! THINK!!!
STAY ON THE LOGICAL LANE.I'M CALLING UR CLAIM OF WRITING 100K LOC /YR a lie. And i'm stating tht 100k a year is only possible under duress. Not saying it's impossible but under duress. I'm talking of well designed , no fluff, no imported code, all code written by the author system. If you have anything to say, counter the point logically. Stop fuming like a kindergaten kid. I can now confirm you are a ritard e. You have create a box for yourself and feel everyone should into that box. Actually the project that brought about so much issue from you actually had well over 100k lines of code. Before i was contracted to do the job, 2 UK citizens, 1 Nigerian firm and 1 Indian firm had already tried and failed to deliver on it. I hope your mind can comprehend the size or nature of the job. I won't say more than. Infact to fit you box i will say i can only write 100 lines of code all my life. Ritard e. |
Programming › Re: Why You Cant Write 100k LOC In A Year by seunthomas: 8:32am On Dec 04, 2017 |
omokoladejames: First of all I personally believe LOC is not a good metric to judge productivity of a programmer. I believe its bill gates who said “Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight”.
With that been said, I would agree with the OP that it is not just an herculean task for one person to write a 100k LOC in a year, It is highly improbable. It doesn't matter whether you've been coding for 2 yrs or for 200 yrs and it actually doesn't matter what language you're using, because it is not an issue of expertise but an issue of human limitation. Yes there will be days where you will spit out about 500 lines in one sitting, especially at the beginning of the project but as you get deeper into the project each line of code carries more weight because you have to think through how it fits with the other pieces and at this point your LOC/day slows down drastically to a lot less than a 100. When you add the fact that things will break as you write and you also have to rethink your logic and design, it is a given that you'll have weeks(even months) where you'll average 10-20 LOC/day.
So bros i don't know how you did it ooo but meeehn I can't begin to imagine the maintenance cost of such a program cos there must have been many many wuru wuru to the answser for the code. But i still side with the OP, I don't believe it's possible. I want to tell you its actually possible to write more than 100K lines of code a year. A standard web application with javascript and server side code(c#,java, php,python or whatever) can easily exceed 5k lines of code. An advanced application for finance can easily exceed 50k lines of code. On the human ability to write that much code, i laugh when people argue its not possible. I have been doing it for a long time and i know people who work on huge projects where they have to write more lines. You can argue that in 2017 where we have components for almost everything, number of lines of code have gotten less by the day and i will agree with you. But in an environment where what you need to build requires certain level of security and you can't afford to use open components, you will easily exceed 100k lines of code and such projects happen in 6months to a year. I understand the OP's frustration but you should try not to side with things especially if you are still starting up. I consider myself a very advanced programmer but i still know a lot of people who have more experiences than i do. Mind you bill gate you mentioned is not even a real programmer. Most of this top CEO's rarely write code once their company is in full swing as they have money to hire people who write better code than themselves so using him as a standard is off. Lines of code is not an indication of anything its just to show that sometimes you can easily work yourself to something you dont expect when you are working on a project. If the OP feels he is a better or more solid programmer than i am he can feel free to challenge me na..... |
