• Distributed Systems: Challenges, Experiences and Tips

  About 4 months ago (approximately the last time I wrote something here), I opted to embark on a graduate school journey at Stony Brook University, Computer Science (if you have a remote position — Technical Writer and/or Software Engineer position — at a non-USA company, don't hesitate to reach out). Was it the best decision to make considering less pay (if any), more theoretical undertakings and assumptions, and... - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Any opinion about tutorialspoint? Getting apparently wrong results

  Full of wrong and/or incomplete information. I prefer cplusplus.com when I need to look up some library details. Source: 12 months ago

• Learning DSA from scratch : The Ultimate Guide

• Things that i should know before gettting into Data Structures and Algorithms??

  C++ was far from my first language. I took Modula-2 and FORTRAN in school. I knew about pointers, linked lists, etc before writing my first line of C++. I think the best way to learn is just to work on projects that interest you. Get familiar with online resources. I like cplusplus.com and cppreference.com (can get a little verbose). I'm also a big fan of w3schools.com. They have a good C++ tutorial for beginners. Source: about 1 year ago

• Help

  I second this. cplusplus.com will pop up on your searches, I just blocked it. Loaded with ads and slow, and almost always less thorough than cppreference. I found geeksforgeeks OK when learning algorithms - not so much the language itself though. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Would doing a coding bootcamp be a horrible idea?

  Don't do bootcamp. Start with something like https://freecodecamp.org and take a few lessons. Try to build something from that and see how motivated you are. If you see some progress and this thing still excites you, then may be find an engineer (a friend/co worker etc) who can guide you a bit as you continue to build something. Start small and stay away from bootcamps (my 2 cents). - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• What's wrong with my resume? Former non-tech background designer and Current CS graduate student looking for first SDE/SWE internship, really, no good news at all but only rejections, please advice!
