Programming languages

I learned programming languages Visual Basic 6.0 and C++ (Borland 3.0) in high school and went on to learn HTML, PHP, SQL, CSS, and JavaScript mostly on my own but used online learning libraries. In college I took additional C++ and Java courses. I am CompTIA A+ and Network+ certified so I also work with hardware and configuring operating systems, mostly Windows, for networks. I have actually created Windows Domain networks from scratch (domain controllers, workstations, routers, switches, Internet access via cable ISP, and running all Cat5/5e cable). I will say I know enough to know I have a lot to learn yet. I would love to learn different deployment technologies such as Microsoft SCCS, LanDESK, I know Norton has something but I forget what it's called.
 
Hey all, working professionally in the web development field, mostly JavaScript, but I’ve got to learn some PHP and back in the day some C++.

Such a fun activity, it helped me realize that it’s a whole new world out there on the www and while many surface concepts are quite easy to grasp, many people still don’t get the basics. Luckily, the community is great and knowledge sharing is the key

Luckily we can copy & paste all our code from stackoverflow
 
Don't wanna admit it? Hm?
Well, I was writing code before the internet even existed ... ;)

Seriously, though, there are some devs that *only* seems to be able to copy&paste from SO.

It's not a bad thing to lift code from there, as long as you read and understand what that code is doing.

A line or two here and there without change, no big deal.

If I lift more than that, I always go through and rework it, to make it fit the coding standards I follow, and to identify any potential issues or bugs it might be introducing.

I also always try to make lifting code be the last resort when under a tight schedule, though.
 
Yeah.. Until n unless you write your Own code.. You don't become a developer..


I was talking about initial phase..
When one don't even sure about things..

He goes and search for those.. And the first search result is always stackoverflow..

So he is compelled to go their.

Otherwise.. If you keep looking at stack..

You won't develop your coding skills.

Honestly, if you're starting a new project with new tools that you haven't used previously, and are not sure where to start, SO is probably not the best starting point ... finding some tutorials on how to use the tools involved is probably a better option. There is tons of stuff like that out there ... and following along with a tutorial is definitely a good way to develop your coding skills.

I know.. I do the same thing only..

But those tutorials don't get solve your errors..
That's why these groups and sites are their to help each other.

Haha yes but it’s not only about copy pasting, right? it is also about understanding what is going on. The advantage of it is that the ecosystem has many of the answers for mostly anything that’s needed. This makes it feel like everyone in community is growing at the same time with a common goal
 
Is anyone here into operating systems networking and how it works? Or writes any programs? C,C++, or web script programming like HTML or JSON related stuff?
I am. I am CompTIA A+ and Network+ certified and know about the OSI Model. I've also built Windows domain networks with servers, clients, run the Cat5/Cat6 myself, setup the patch panel, and do programming in Visual Basic, C/C++, Java, as well as web development with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL. I've even set up virtual Internet hosted PBX systems with extensions and IP phones.
 
I have already developed actively in Assembler, C, Visual Basic, FORTRAN, Clipper, SQL, Javascript, Python, BASIC, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, LISP, OpenScad, etc. I know HTML and CSS, but I don't consider those as programming languages.
 
I am currently learning and growing. I know the basics like HTML, CSS and have built a few websites on Wordpress but looking to grow and expand my learning to because a self taught programmer.

Primarily HTML/CSS/JS, but have dabbled in React/NextJS, C#, Ruby on Rails, C++ and Java way back in college. Played around with ActionScript back when Flash was still a thing.

The real question is: What's your code editor of choice?
