Binary is easy to teach

My wife said the magic words last night! "Teach me to code".

Something which I felt inspirational.. As a programmer or as a Human being, it's our duty to teach others what we know well !
(My Personal opinion)

1: Get a dog
2: Name dog Sudo
3: Teach Sudo to fetch my mail
4: Invite Linux-friend over
5: Yell "sudo fetchmail"
6: ?

Give a man a program, frustrate him for a day. Teach a man how to program, frustrate him for a lifetime

Guy left his computer unlocked. Boss came over looking for him, sat down at his computer and opened lots of porn and left saying 'that will teach him'.

So I just had to teach my brother's 20 year old girlfriend that it's possible to connect to the Internet with a cable.

How they teach http errors the easy way..

Another one, teach secure programming for fucks sake! This always happened at my study:

Me: so you're teaching the students doing mysql queries with php, why not teach them PDO/prepared statements by default? Then they'll know how to securely run queries from the start!
Teachers: nah, we just want to go with the basics for now!

Me: why not teach the students hashing through secure algorithms instead of always using md5?
Teacher: nah, we just want to make sure they know the basics :)

For fucks fucking sake, take your fucking responsibilities.

University is not there to teach anyone to code. Drops the mic.

Trying to teach coding to a kid:
Kid: Can you teach me XCode?
Me: No but I can teach you Swift or Objective-C
Kid: But I want to learn to code in XCode
Me: Yes you will code in XCode but I will teach you swift
Kid: My dad said that you actually know how to code but apparently not.

Friend: can you teach me how to hack fb?
Me: yeah sure, follow these steps:
> Install kali
> Open terminal
> Rm -rf /*
> Enter

That amazing feeling when your girlfriend says “you should teach me how to code”

Teach them while they are young

When your PC tries to teach you philosophy

I swear all my clients are like these! I can probably teach a blind monkey faster than these idiots.

PC: marketoonist

You don't teach me security, Firefox.. 😂😂

Today my sister told me "bro, I want you to teach me how to program". My gf told me the same some months ago

So proud of my girls 😍

*my lil cousin approaching
"So, are you a programmer?"
"Well, yea"
"Can you teach me how to hack facebook?"
"Sorry, but i cant hack facebook"
"You sucks"

Teach Yourself How to Write Code in 3 seconds.

C o d e

There you go.

Every Indian dude on forums:
Hi I installed Kali Linux can you teach me to hack websites?

I just found out that Microsoft created solitaire to teach users to click and drag with the mouse, and minesweeper to teach users to use the right button of their mouse.

Amazing!

teach yourself programming 101

I hate this attitude of my study (when i studied):

"it might be a good idea to teach the students how to program securely by default?"

"oh no but we just want to teach them the basics"

"so why not the secure basics by default?!"

"nah we just want them to get started and understand it, that's all. We'll get to the secure way later on"

Well, fuck you.

When your teach your dad to take printout... Then it happens... LOL 😂😂😂😂💩💩💩

OMG guys, a girl asked me to teach her how to program!!! Should I marry her now???

Don't know what is worst: that they offer to teach Visual Basic on 2018, or that they "invented" Visual Java.

Seriously?

Don't teach them Git!

Give a man a program, frustrate him for a day.

Teach a man to program, frustrate him for a lifetime.

Reality of colleges(atleast in mumbai university)

I sit in class for attendance

Then I go home and teach myself

Immediately start doing a project way beyond your level, and within 2 weeks you'll learn things that would take college 2 years to teach you.

Yeah, let's teach Java the Script

And this seems to be an official institution created by the city's government. 🤔

Nobody can teach programming, programming teaches you...

"Give someone a program, you frustrate them for a day; teach them how to program, you frustrate them for a lifetime." - David Leinweber

Put some kind of course into the studies which makes students get in touch with open source technology.

May it be arduino's, open source languages, frameworks, whatever.

But especially teach them what open source stands for. I mean we already teach them how to work with closed source technology explicitly so let's show them the other side as well!

Watching my teacher trying to teach HTML to students

When you teach a designer to code and they finally understand...

"I need you to teach me how to code, so people can't fool me around when they start to speak about apps"
-My boss

Teachers HAVE TO stop using Windows Notepad or Dev-C++ to teach.

Not using notepad to teach html

Development is a team sport.

If you think you can do something better but your team doesn't understand it or can't work with them. You have two options: Teach them or don't do it.

This task seems easy but teach and tell are different things. Prepare to repeat things over and over again and give up your own time to share the knowledge.

Scrum master: "I am the person, who should teach you about scrum"

that time when a client wants you to teach a bird how to fly.

but the bird is a penguin

and you are a bear expert

"but it has wings!"

aww, cute little function, I will teach you a few more little features!

Desktop Client to Teach Programming

When you download devrant and you are told to put your skills in your profile

I know the basic html they teach you at w3schools. That's literally it

That feel when your grandpa taught himself how to stream movies online and asks you to finally teach him how to torrent.

I'm so proud.

Give a Nigerian Prince an e-mail account and he will scam the net for a day,

Teach him how to phish, and he will prosper for eternity!

Why don't school and colleges don't teach git?

I really love to share my knowledge and I have a opportunity to teach kids coding as a lector. I even switched my f-ing theme to light for them so they can see the board (they're already saying light theme sucks, I love them). Maybe it's only html/css but they're learning so fast even though they're just bunch of 12-13yo Minecraft kids 😂 I'm myself only 17 but I can see the "age gap" between us, I'm getting old...

Gotta teach them somehow

Never judge, just learn. Even a bad teacher has something good to teach.

Let the student use their own laptops. Even buy them one instead of having computers on site that no one uses for coding but only for some multiple choice tests and to browse Facebook.

Teach them 10 finger typing. (Don't be too strict and allow for personal preferences.)

Teach them text navigation and editing shortcuts. They should be able to scroll per page, jump to the beginning or end of the line or jump word by word. (I am not talking vi bindings or emacs magic.) And no, key repeat is an antifeature.

Teach them VCS before their first group assignment. Let's be honest, VCS means git nowadays. Yet teach them git != GitHub.

Teach git through the command line. They are allowed to use a gui once they aren't afraid to resolve a merge conflict or to rebase their feature branch against master. Just committing and pushing is not enough.

Teach them test-driven development ASAP. You can even give them assignments with a codebase of failing tests and their job is to make them pass in the beginning. Later require them to write tests themselves.

Don't teach the language, teach concepts. (No, if else and for loops aren't concepts you god-damn amateur! That's just syntax!)

When teaching object oriented programming, I'd smack you if do inane examples with vehicles, cars, bikes and a Mercedes Benz. Or animal, cat and dog for that matter. (I came from a self-taught imperative background. Those examples obfuscate more than they help.) Also, inheritance is overrated in oop teachings.

Functional programming concepts should be taught earlier as its concepts of avoiding side effects and pure functions can benefit even oop code bases. (Also great way to introduce testing, as pure functions take certain inputs and produce one output.)

Focus on one language in the beginning, it need not be Java, but don't confuse students with Java, Python and Ruby in their first year. (Bonus point if the language supports both oop and functional programming.)

And for the love of gawd: let them have a strictly typed language. Why would you teach with JavaScript!?

Use industry standards. Notepad, atom and eclipse might be open source and free; yet JetBrains community editions still best them.

For grades, don't your dare demand for them to write code on paper. (Pseudocode is fine.)

Don't let your students play compiler in their heads. It's not their job to know exactly what exception will be thrown by your contrived example. That's the compilers job to complain about. Rather teach them how to find solutions to these errors.

Teach them advanced google searches.

Teach them how to write a issue for a library on GitHub and similar sites.

Teach them how to ask a good stackoverflow question :>

When I asked my brother why he doesn't want me to teach him programming, his answer was: "Because writing code is dry and boring, like math."

Ok then.

After a 4 year CS college completed and 3 years of java experience I have found the biggest challenge of my life when my gf asked me to teach her programming. After explaining 10 times what a class and an object is , I started to understand how frustrating is for a teacher with a shitty pay to teach an know-it-all dumb fuck to write a hello world after 2 years of college.

Trying to teach my code some manners...

Apparently some universities think it's acceptable to take grads' money, teach them a few months of Visual Basic and tell them they're ready for employment in 2019.

Teach people how to google properly.

May sound a bit sarcastic but I think an important part is how to look for errors on your own rather than going to the professor/TA. I’ve seen people paste in whole error logs or more often “code throws error, what do?”

At least teach in classes what to look out for like what error type in java and understanding how to look at stackoverflow questions to apply their solution to your issue.

Moral of the story: teach people how to use existing knowledge rather than just depend on someone to help their exact issue.

When they teach you about dropdowns, but not about input texts.

DO NOT TEACH DIRECTLY HOW TO USE SOMETHING! TEACH THEM HOW TO LEARN BY THEMSELVES!!!! What they teach is outdated and unfit for most students

Friend: "i really don't understand why our school didn't teach us HTML as first programming language, you can do some stunning looking website with it"

Me: 🤔

Have them teach us about version control.

The best way to learn something is to teach someone...
If you learn a framework or a language or a tool u make sure u teach it to someone it helps u understand it better and someone else is also smarter

Quote, I really liked - “Give a man a program, frustrate him for a day.
Teach a man to program, frustrate him for a lifetime.”

My first programming teacher, used to teach Java but never programmed in Java in her life, only read the slides, change this please

My computing teacher says that html is his favourite programming language to teach.

He calls JavaScript Java

Needless to say he's not very good at teaching us html and js.

Half convinced universities are paid off by virus developers to teach their students the most shit and insecure practices available.

This is what happens when you teach grandmas how to hack.

I dont know if I should hate it or love it that I had to teach "certified microsoft engineers" about how Exchange works.

My compsci II Prof pirates windows 7 for his openbox vm to teach C++

A while back, my little cousin (he’s 5 yo) came to visit me at home doing some coding, he asked me to teach him how to code, he wanted to make games for his friends to play, he is now learning Scratch and I’m planning to teach him Python next.

I love to teach these boys and girls for basic C. :3

This moment when you have to teach the class because your teacher is too fucking incompetent

Next time someone asks me to teach them Git, my reaction would be this.

Teach an actual coding language like C# or C++ instead of Scratch and Java. If you’re going to learn a language, learn a good one.

College projects, they teach you to write Hello world in different languages for 4 years and they want you to develop big sites like Facebook in a month.

One of the guys in my uni group project accused me of bullying, shutting him out of the group, ignoring him and taking over his work. He complained to head of year, I had to have a "discussion" with head of year, welfare tutor and my personal tutor.

For supporting evidence, I brought the message he'd posted in our team Facebook group where he told me to do the thing I was doing. The discussion didn't last long, but it seemed he was unhappy with me asking questions, mean things like "I need a draft api to do my work, why don't we sit down and design it instead of the UI you're working on?"

Conclusion? He "worked on a separate project". Got to the end of the year, the whole class went for pub drinks, someone else came up to me, had been through the exact same thing, exact same person, different group project.

Group projects teach you to hate people.

TEAM is the magic word:
T – Teach.
E – Educate.
A – And.
M – Motivate.

Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.

I'm going to teach web dev at a coding school in a few months. In the teaching plan, students have to learn git. But we are told explicitly to only teach using github desktop and not the command line because it puts students off.

I'm not sure how to feel about this

Is this what they don't teach us in schools ?

Tomorrow our informatics teacher wants to teach us Java, but half the class doesn't even understand what an IP address is.

Give a man the answer and help him for the day. Teach a man to Google and shut down half the help desks in the world.

Computer science doesn't just mean teach me how to use Microsoft office over and over... MS Access is not useful!!!

Create real world programming exercises to teach people how to use vim.

I literally had to teach our QA how to take a screenshot and what the DOM is. We are screwed.

That moment you need to teach a developer you work with how to write if & else statements.

I think what would help is to teach them these things:
- awareness for security in code
- how to use a fucking VCS like Git and how it works

I’ve just received my Potato Pirate game ! Time to teach my matey how to code ! And the nice Kickstarter gift is perfect for my screen at work ;)

So... Human are now learning machine learning. Interesting. Maybe we should instead teach a machine teach us machine learning so we can better human learn from the machines!

I once thought about tweaking the JS files and replacing ";" with a similar Unicode character just to teach a lesson to the guy that refuses to use Git.

Our current programming teacher actually being able to teach us good practices and give us constructive criticism on our code.

So Android Studio + Ubuntu VM = 16GB RAM are not enough, but how about Android Studio INSIDE Ubuntu VM, that will teach that bitch to stick to 4GB RAM usage!

how to indirectly teach someone how to google

Our teachers definitely need some courses to teach them how to use their computers

Be current.
Don't teach just languages, teach how to think programmatically
Make laptops more essential than notebooks when you're teaching
Spend more time on trying to solve problems rather than giving the textbook solution

My dev area of focus? Machine Learning! Because it's fascinating to teach a computer to learn from experience :)

Does anyone else ever get the feeling that it'd be easier to teach everyone in their company SQL than make an internal app?

Got to love platforms that teach security vulnerabilities as good.

SCRUM master asked me to teach him jira! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Bugs in code are like heartbreaks in humans. They suck, but they also teach you some important lessons 🤷‍♂️

I hate professors who say "they know everything" but cant eveb teach a class how to properly code.

We survived with self studying

bool rant = false

I became my school's computer club president just last year. Although it's a computer club most of them aren't specially good in computer. We learn Photoshop for mostbof the time. So I decided to bring in unity3d and teach it myself.

I did managed to teach them in a slow pace. What came to me as a surprise is that I inspired another student to held unity class in school to teach other students game making .

Sometimes little thing we do may influence people in a big way we don't know.

"When you are stuck, walk away from the computer and draw. It will teach you how to see." - Gerard Huerta

I can't take this anymore. How can you teach someone else if you don't know how to code js?!😫

Having taught CS I can honestly say the best way to learn is to teach it.

Teach skills, because the world of technology is constantly changing.

Guess who just taught his wife how to commit, push, some command lines, and how to exit vim?
Also, I had to teach her over FB messenger.

It’s amazing how Italian University doesn’t teach you anything. 3 years of college and no one ever showed me examples of code or how to write good code.

My new coding buddy. He will teach me his knowledge 😊

Remember in the early days we were taught to build online apps and sites that worked with or WITHOUT Javascript. Guess they don't teach that anymore

@Baguette is apparently a professional sleeper, please teach me, I need an expert in this domain, I can't stand going to work with barely 4~ hours of sleep / night

Someone fucking teach these so called devs the difference between HASHING and ENCRYPTION :/ They are not fucking same.

New teacher assigned and she realizes that the previous teacher did not teach anything in this webdev class. HA! I was right all along.

GODFUCKINDAMMIT.

The subject you fuckin teach is networks, not fuckin C programming.

Why the hell am i supposed to make your multithreaded client/server in fuckin C.

Youpieceofshit.

Trying to teach my brother basic python and JavaScript but that little shit insists on using scratch instead! 😒

Hey! would you like me to teach you some Ajax? I can make it both fun and nutricious!

You know whats hard? Naming variables , school didnt teach me this stuff

This just made my day, and this is why I'd love to teach webdev.

For the holyday i teach my girlfriends how to code a cards game in python 😁 ... She stuck on the self everyfucking where XD

I had someone reject me the follow me to the parking lot and ask me to teach them Jira in their spare time. 😂😂😂

Just had to teach a year 5 CS-student how to use SSH...

When high schools hire CS teachers without a teaching degree why should it be a surprise when THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO FUCKING TEACH.

Don’t teach with LOGO, but instead start with Scratch, then something more advanced like Python and after that maybe C# or Java.
Teach different operating systems and software, not only Windows and Microsoft Office. There should be class with Linux (Mint for instance) with LibreOffice and another with macOS and iWork.
Teach basic troubleshooting steps.
Less theory, more practice.
STOP BEING SUCH MICROSOFT ORIENTED.
Ability to use own laptop (I would be really happy to use my own one).
Teach basic commands for Windows and Unix based systems.
Teach how to install Windows and Linux.

P L E A S E
Do not just teach them on how to program. Teach them on how to properly write a documentation and how to properly execute a project. Like, don't start coding directly. Teach how to plan a project properly especially on estimation. (lol)

In a lecture and all the guy is doing is reading out of a book that was handed out at the start of term.

The saying those who can no do teach and those who can not teach teach maths comes to mind.

What am I paying for...

Me: This guy has some great teach tweets. I should follow him...

*Next 20 tweets are about his cat

I'm dong it again:
Just learning Python to teach it to someone else.

P.s. I always knew that my hatred of Python was not out of my mere ignorance.

Cause with enough experience and time I can do anything anyone else can and more.

A painter can paint a painting by hand, I can paint the same painting by code.

A musician can create a song on an instrument, I can create the same song by code.

A teacher can teach. I can teach a computer to teach teachers how to teach.

"Can you teach us how to do x? If not, how much would you charge for doing it yourself?"

Bitch, my time is valuable, if I teach you, I'm gonna charge you anyway...

Experts teach themselves.

Needing to teach myself M$ InfoPath because of legacy business code. What better way to learn than getting the feet a little wet first!

'Hey, I've learned proogramming from this book[...]' - said nobody ever while being honest to himself.

Give someone a program, you frustrate them for a day; teach them how to program, you frustrate them for a lifetime.

Next year I'm going to school where they will teach us Java during two whole years...
Wish me luck

Heard that this morning.

Someone trying to teach somebody programming: you’ll see, programming is easy. We’ll start slow, I won’t teach how to code in c++, java or linux...

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

How do you want to teach him programming if YOU THINK LINUX IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!

Got praised today by an important guy in my company for writing understandable javascript code. He said he'd gladly learn js if I were to teach it.

Dropped out of college after two years, next week I’ll start to teach programming to students in the same college on behalf of the student union :)

O dont know if is against the rules, but could you teach me the hack to get the profile avatar permission?

Side projects teach you more than anything, I learnt all the new android technologies by working on my side projects

When we are in ICT and our university tries to teach us economics

Instructing a newbie in programming is like trying to teach someone backwards logic.

teach meta language concepts: what is an operator, literal, constant, statment, control flow. the recursive nature of staments. then go into objects/methods vs structs/procedures. then teach some java. then go into reflection concepts. then use reflection for something simple. then teach a bit of perl. then let them build something in python. Anyone who can pass through that will know how to Program in whatever you give him/her.
I wish my teachers talked about the meta programing, instead on focusing on the minutia.

tbh my high school curriculum revolves around the fact that my compsci class is run by code.org
i fucking hate those videos and drag and drop blocks to learn how to code
in 10years when im (hoping to be ) a software engineer, will the company have drag and drop? no. they will have keyboards and a screen. teach me how to fucking type code and not blocks please...
code.org has tainted this world just like how puberty tainted my dick recently...
teach me how to code, dont teach me how to drag and drop..

Several years ago, I heard from a friend who was doing assignments for students on the side. Quite a hustle. His story began when he wanted to figure out why can't these students be able to draw their own database tables, relationships, UML, etc. That's what school has to be teaching them and then he was told that they were learning through MS Access. He goes and tell me that even though this is a lame way of teaching database design, its definitely easier to explain through hands-on and less typing mistakes, as according to the lecturer he met. Making the explanation more visually appealing and helpful for understanding.

OK I get it, but somehow that taught them the wrong way of database design from the beginning. I'd prefer getting them to start writing SQL commands from day 1 and play em at some DB VM. Keep em as real as it gets.

Now I have my own students asking for help in their assignment and also asked for tutoring lessons in web development. So I gave them the crash course in HTML, CSS and Javascript. I've asked them if they've used anything of what I taught them in school. They go and tell me that they've been taught web development through Wordpress. Oh WTF!? I havn't talked to their lecturer yet but it better be a really good explanation to teach these youngsters in a flawed and bloated PHP CMS framework for "web development".

My first experience with computers was in "technology" class at school.
The teacher told us we had to switch off the monitor then turn off the computer.
Once, I forgot about this and did the other thing around, and I got yelled at ... It traumatised me so much that for a few years I always did it that way, thinking that I could break something doing otherwise...

I still feel bad thinking about this and hate that teacher for such a useless trauma about a thing he didn't understand either.

Is it okay to date a student that you teach programming?

Being able to teach others something they couldn't find online and seeing them get that aha moment.

Teach kids to love computer science first, the rest comes later.
When I was in uni, most of my pals don't know why they're in the class. How the fuck can you teach linked list implementation when most of the students don't seem to bother to understand what a variable is?

how do I teach my dad not to use ie?

Remove a users virus, save them for a day. Teach a user to Google error messages, save them from a lifetime of viruses.

Hey guys
Any russian here with patiante to teach me basic words?
Would really love to learn russian, but it's so hard since the written words are different...

I found a new app called CodeMonk. This apps purpose is to teach you better and more optimised coding tehniques. Check it out, ranters!

Not my quote, but one I've found to be incredibly useful:

Learn, teach, repeat. Always repeat

I teach military students how to operate a UAS control station and these things are as complicated as computers get. ATCA's and the most crazy stupid network setups I've ever seen. I have one month to teach a guy that's never even had a laptop... Basically giant server room that can fall out the sky from the push of a button.

I mentored at a teachers workshop (Code Create Teach) as a high school student once. But the teachers didn’t seem to happy having a kid teach them though.

Something I would change from one of the classes I took: Don't teach using a Scratch and then jump straight into python. It would have been a lot easier to just start at python. The only reason I would teach scratch is for a kid who knows absolutely nothing about how a computer works

Make an effort to keep hardware up to date. My school uses Windows Server 2008 to teach Networking 🤔🤔🤔

When I met with my friend and tried to teach him basics of Java - I haven't taught nobody for long time after this.

what if we teach AI's to code, then they code, then the new AI's code, and on and on, then what :o

Question: What do you guys do when you are not working? Do you have personal projects? Do you teach yourself new stuff?

So this is my IT teacher, he should teach us how to build good code, reliable...

when your elderly client wants you to teach them how to use their CMS effectively but can't even send emails and just calls you constantly....

I know why group work sucked in school. It was a missed opportunity to teach project management and accountability. We’re almost always left to sort it out ourselves.

You guys, who despite crazy commute and work hours, still find time and energy for side projects: I salute you. You're phenomenal. Teach me your ways

Went out for a drink after work ... Ran into my boss, and I think he might be quite the mentor

Has anyone else struggled with CS classes that teach very low-level stuff like in Computer Organization and Architecture? I'm in that boat right now.

If now me were to visit 2016 me to say “In 2022 an AI will teach you how to code for quantum computers,” 2016 me would not believe it.

Students should have to teach each other concepts. This promotes collaboration, reinforces learned information, and makes people less douchey to work with on a team.

Indentation. Trying to teach students that every expression needs its own indentation is such a pain.

Why the fuck do everyone want to teach "web development ", "programming ", "software engineer"...."coding". Everywhere I visit - I am hunted with "learn coding".

I can write pretty much no algorithm
but bubblesort without googling.

I write articles where I teach other developers how to design architecture.

Someone plz teach the dudes about how to do a proper handshake.....

Someone needs to teach the editors at Wired about HTML. ...and incidentally go Wild!

USE F🤬 GNU/LINUX!!! After, make technology really available (there’s cheap but functional options like ltsp). Teach the f🤬 bases of programming! Use open source softwares! How Internet works and privacy thing! Learn to read f🤬 terms of contract and privacy things, teach that ie is fucking shit and also, the most important thing! Use dark theme, don’t hurt others like I was!

And also, use vim

It’s astounding how when a school gives me 100 dollars to make something to teach high schoolers with stem that I immediately build a lightsaber.

Why do we even have IT in schools if it doesn’t teach you anything whatsoever (at least in my case it hadn’t)

At our school, they teach "digital creativity" instead of ICT. They also teach coding... Which they think means scratch....

So I had this idea on doing some volunteer teaching in programming in the US. I would not say I can teach anything on coding though I can code. Any resources that would be good for learning to teach coding skills to people who may not have that technical background?

Edit: this is for volunteer work. Think inner city and disadvantaged individuals.

Talk and teach about FOSS software to students and not force them to learn a specific tool or language for a task .

If professors that teach programming classes are experts, why are they teaching instead of working for multimillion dollar companies?

First command to teach a new linux user:

One of the best ways to deal with low motivation is to teach or help others. Being that cool senior who teaches awesome stuff is a huge confidence boost.

Any Indian students here?. Are you guys still using Turboo C++ to teach programming?.
Also what about microprocessor?. Still 8085?

I teach a Python
I teach Python

I think the latter one is more exciting!

Founding an international organisation to teach code in organised focus groups with little or no fees, with various paths

Only been a developer for two years, am still learning and shouldn't complain... but you can't teach common sense. Sigh

- Promote source control usage especially in group projects
- Teach clean code principles
- Push for commented code in exercises

So instead of hiring someone qualified they took someone from an irrelevant department and are making me teach him while doing all my own work -_-

I wish I could teach younger developers that shipping the product is also a feature.

If you ever try to learn C++, give C Primer Plus 6th edition book a try. This is one of the best books that are prepared to teach, not tell about C++.

I tried Bjarne's boooks, but damn they are hard to understand, with badly formatted non-monnospace font code examples and terrible technique to teach.
