I'm interning at a 40yr old tech company which develops network/app monitoring tools. Was put on a customer project where I had a bit of work on the UI. Fairly simple task, except the code was in jQuery... Fml :(

I started coding after getting into college and was overwhelmed with so many people around me who were already pretty good at it. Slowly I started learning things on my own, getting few internships to apply those skills and built few small projects. Managed to get a dev full time job, spent the last few months learning Spring MVC and Spring Boot. When I now look back, I definitely feel I've walked few miles, although there's still a lot to learn. I once doubted whether I can be any good in the dev world as my peers were bagging good jobs/internships but now it certainly feels that I can move ahead in this path which I liked so much. Yes, programming is stressful and painful sometimes. The learning curve is steep but if this is what excites you, go for it! Spend few months training yourself and then applying what you have learnt. Just, never give up! You can do wonders!
Oops, was I supposed to rant here? That is of course necessary. You can't imagine a dev life without rants but let that be for another post.

How to add a .SQL file to an existing database in Postgresql?

Being a dev intern is so hard! The company expects me to have knowledge as a senior developer but with a stipend of a janitor! :(

Sometimes there are times when we are low on motivation. Happens very often. Best thing would be to take a break, go for a run or a walk, watch some programming related videos and after a while, get back to work. You will have your motivation back by then if you stay determined!

I want to buy a new laptop and would like to double boot it with Linux and Windows 10. So should I buy a laptop with bundled Windows 10 OS or the other way round. Also will it be a problem if I buy a laptop with DOS OS ( DOS OS Supported)

Guys, I'm planning to buy a new laptop for Dev purpose. My budget is under 45K INR. Need a laptop with 8GB RAM and I'm confused about the processor (i5 or i3 or AMD). Please suggest the processor I should choose and some laptop models meeting the above criteria.

How can I start coding again the same way I did before. I have lost the motivation now. My studies don't allow me devote much of my time on coding but I wanna do it anyway. How to get back my motivation😔😔

A few days back, I received a mail stating that I would receive my DevRant laptop stickers soon. I live in Bangalore, India, so how much more time it would take to reach me. Any ideas??

Oh god why this Wi-Fi isn't working???😑😑😑
I'm totally fed up of finding new WiFi around. This place sucks!!!

I have a mini laptop ( i-ball CompBook Excelance). I want to add an extra monitor to it for coding purpose. Can I do it? Someone suggested me not to do so as monitor would require more power which this laptop will not be able to provide and would result in a short circuit. Is it so that I can't add a monitor to this kind of mini laptop? If it's possible then tell me the kind of monitor to add and it's procedure.

Also it has a 2gb sdRAM. Can I run Android Studio in that? Or can I add more RAM to it?

I know I have asked too many questions here! But please help me guys coz I think that this is the platform where I'll get answers to all my queries. The people I am surrounded with are not worthy to ask such questions. Please help!

Thanks in advance!

Help needed!
I have learnt the basics of programming languages such as C and Python but have not learnt Algorithm and Data Structures in any exclusive way. Although we were taught little about algorithms in the class. So is it a good idea to learn these topics now from any online courses or MOOCs?

I am a beginner in programming. Started to code some 9 months back. So far I have learnt some basic C, Python(from LPTHW), HTML, CSS, JavaScript(from Coursera). I want to advance my skill. One of my relatives who is a programmer too advices me to learn SQL now and then learn PHP. So according to you what should I do now. I also want to develop my Python skills to using its frameworks so that I can make some real stuffs with that.

Pls suggest me my next move and also tell me from where can I learn these things( free courses could be of more help to me). I want to quickly learn the most of these so that I can make a dynamic website and web apps in the near future.

Thanks in advance!

29th is a big day for me!
Physics exam that day....

What am I thinking right now???
"Should I continue with learning SQL or first finish off JavaScript course!!"
😐😑

Why does this happen?
Whenever I begin with my exams, I think more about Code and Programming!!
😑😑😑
