This is a where to begin question-

I'm looking for the source code for mfisn3(iirc), whatever the latest was before the site 404ed. Someone has to have it...

Not necessarily stopping, but you should emphasize the limitations of the language outside of web development and the insanity (security or sane practices? We don't need those here) of its library ecosystem

Also Python simply has both more useful libraries for everything and they tend to be better-written.

>>5375
python has better libraries and more secure environment i think, but its also less powerfull language, there is no popular language other than javascript that makes using high-order functions easier. Start with https://eloquentjavascript.net, most important chapter is about asynchrous programming. She should learn about async and events as soon as possible otherwise she will have bad time. Also she should learn high-order-functions and then she can learn react and start earning lot of money

IMHO, women tend to gravitate towards less rigorous areas like front-end web development because their brains are not as analytical as those of men, so something like C programming probably isn't a good fit for them. I would say let her learn Javascript. It can't hurt.

Try recruitment agencies.
A lot of companies don't bother putting vacancies out themselves because they'll get deluged by applications. Instead they contract an agency to handle it as a middleman.
Get in touch with an agency, send them your CV and they'll try to find you work.
Disclaimer: I never used one for an IT job but they did get me an electrician job years ago. Gotta say it feels nice when you know that someone is actually trying to help you get a job.

There's way more supply than demand for programming positions. The deck is totally stacked in their favor. I say give up and just be a NEET programmer like me.

>>5426
That's the thing, though. It's not actually true that there's more supply than demand, anywhere in the world. The demand for programmers is huge, and new ones are not training fast enough, let alone to those absurd requirements companies ask for for entry-level positions. It's not like those companies that get swamped with applications fill the positions quickly. Quite often those positions stay unfilled even when they stop processing applications.

The reasons for this are complex, but I think it has to do with a combination of circumstances are are unique to software:
* Software engineering and computer science has had since its inception and doubly so since the Internet a culture of open sharing of information and techniques.
* Therefore a lot of programmers (IMO the most skilled) are self-taught.
* Therefore it is difficult to gauge a programmer's skill without expending significant resources.
* Therefore employers started to push for credentialism.
* "When a metric becomes a target it ceases to be a good metric." Although it may have once been true that good programmers were much more common in the graduate population, when people started to get diplomas just to get SD positions this ceased to be the case.
* So it turns out that a fresh graduate from a four year program in computer science or software engineering doesn't really have that much relevant knowledge, if all they did was take classes.
* So companies started adding further requirements. Past a certain point everyone realizes that there's at most one or two people in the world capable of meeting them (and they probably already have jobs).
* So literally everyone who sees the posting applies.

I've thought about it and I don't really know what the solution is. At its core, this is a problem of lack of trust and information asymmetry, on both sides of the employer-employee relationship.

I would say Java. Perfect middle ground between the convoluted nature of C/C++ and the intellectual laziness encouraged by something like Python.

Java cause I like minecwaft

make me Barry

You'll never be able to do anything creatively if you second-guess yourself and worry about how people will receive what you make, or what else is out there that's similar to your stuff.

Even when one game is objectively better than another (as in, everything one does the other does equally well or better), some people can still prefer the worse one because it does something different that they find more enjoyable.
E.g. I admit that I suck at fighting games, but I can recognize that Street Fighter IV is overall better designed than Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. It's better balanced and it's not possible to do stupid shit like infinite juggles. Yet I like UMvC 3 better because I like the characters better, and it's just more fun for me.

thank you fren, you are right.

All art is imitation friend
If you're just developing as a hobby, keep going.
If you're hoping to commercialise your project, then it's a bit trickier, and you might want to diverge from them. Or you can just make your game better than theirs, or have yours release first, or develop the community around it better.
The sad fact is you almost certainly won't make money from your game anyway, because virtually nobody does. If it's a hobby or portfolio thing, then ignore them and do what you want.

Fun fact: did you know that the Aztecs considered gold to be the shit of the sun? (Or was that another precious metal, idk)

>>5401 cont.
And the sun was a god ofc so ... holy

Hijacking thread.

When I learned HTML, it was common to see http://abc.com/index.html in the address bar for sites on the net. Nowadays this is largely depreciated in favor of http://abc.com/index

How is this accomplished? Can this be done in pure HTML without any server-side scripting going on?

Pic related. It's a polite hijacking.

>>5389
It's probably directory or custom web server that generates index when path is "/" or "/index". It can be also treating files without extension as HTML/PHP/Perl files.

In pure HTML, you can do it by creating directory named "index" and placing index.html there. In /index.html you have to do redirection to that file.

But there's no reason to do it. Just use index.html, in many cases it won't even show in address bar.
Changing whole directory structure and creating problems with index for being "more with times" is stupid. Hiding file extension isn't any reason, too.
You can just point links to "/" instead of "/index.html"

>>5390
Yeah I ended up cribbing some .htaccess syntax using RewriteEngine to do what I wanted
