have you considered just taking or auditing some compiler classes instead of going whole hog on a degree just to learn about a small part that interests you?

you already know the basics and you'll be in classes with people who can't fizzbuzz. just study what interests you imo

MALE SHOEGAZE posted:when the software you write serves a business purpose, you're just complicating it by making it open source. now you have to think about how one or two random people in Russia might be using your software. and you have to have a steering and a guidance committee. everything here is abstract enterprise entity consumer producer and it's written to be usable by external users even though absolutely no one outside of red hat will ever use it. the worst part of this is that just about every individual who submits a PR expects their thing to get merged no matter what and doesn't care about breaking changes or other customers who use the product

MALE SHOEGAZE posted:yeah, I should have emphasized that my main goal in going back to school would be to pursue a masters. It's just that I need to complete an undergrad to do that. And that seems like a big old waste of time. some schools, if they like you enough (and especially for returning/nontraditional students), will let you do a fast-track BS as part of your MS work, like an extra year or two of mid- and upper-level undergrad classes only basically if they think your MS work will be an asset to the school then they'll do what they can to help you do it it also helps a ton if you can afford to just cut a check to pay tuition, rather than use student aid etc. it's not supposed to be considered in things like admissions and designing your degree and poo poo and it entirely is

lol i just found out my hobby project's server has been running with the equivalent of the Turbo button turned off. And that thing actually has a decent number of users the server is an HP rackmount server w/ a couple Xeons in it. i'd set up a power limiter in the bios settings because i'm colo'ing it in a place that's fairly anal about amp caps. well it turns out this basically throttled all the CPUs down to basically the absolute minimum so the performance was more or less raspberry pi tier

hmm getErrors(Parameters params) { pretty basic lovely code, creating a database query by appending to a StringBuilder. yawn. but what is that Parameters class? well, it's a pod class that apparently "encaptulates" every parameter that any kind of query in the program uses. it has over 70 fields. every field is a String.

we use xenapp at work. It's a living nightmare. Edit: thinking about it I think the arm of our IT department that administers stuff like that does not have their poo poo together at all as far as I can tell, so maybe it's something they are doing.

We just code in a shared Google doc text file. It's going because we don't need to worry about our internal module structure, lowering the barrier to dev or its syntax, lowering the learning curve for new devs
