Yeah pretty much stuff like:

Create a loop using break and continue and explain what they are

Comment this document

Differences between Abstract and Concrete classes

There was some harder stuff that i cant remember off top but nothing crazy

Also im about to ask the most basic ass question that will probably make most of you roll your eyes buuuuttt

Whats a really good fast laptop for SW Engineering for anywhere up to about 600?

One i have now is fine for Uni but wont last if i do get an internship

You’re not going to be using your laptop for an internship

Get a macbook

Gonna be working from home though at least for a few months

They aren’t sending you a laptop?

nah its a really small company that works with a lot of charities

they recently worked on software that care home workers can use to track blood samples from the people living there

That’s dope, what kind of laptop do you have now? You can install Linux on it if it’s a windows laptop

i have a HP laptop running windows only 4gb ram tho

they did say i would need to use linux if i worked there

im just worried cause it runs a little slow especially when im using eclipse/visual studio

Is anyone here experienced with OpenGL? I’m working on a basic 3D game for an assignment and I’m having some trouble implementing the camera

anyone have any experience with Java Web Servers

i have this running where it displays todays date on a web page when i go to localhost:7500

but what im tryna do is be able to load a html file for example:
localhost:7500/test.html

this is what i have so far:

public class SimpleHTTPServer {

public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {

    ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket(7500);

    System.out.println("Listening for connection on port 7500...");
    while (true) {
    	
        try (Socket socket = server.accept()) {
            Date today = new Date();
            String httpResponse = "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n" + today;
            String hel = "hello there";
            socket.getOutputStream().write(httpResponse.getBytes("UTF-8"));
            socket.getOutputStream().write(hel.getBytes("UTF-8"));
        }
    }
}

}

my bad for the formatting

yeah what's up?

any specific path I should follow to try to get into the field? ive been studying online videos and stuff so far.

for starters try to get the security+ to get passed a lot of HR screenings, and get your Linux skills up to snuff. do some CTFs as well to expose yourself to how the different areas of IT are affected by offensive/defensive security.

on top of that, there are so many different avenues to pursue so depending on what you're most interested in the advice i can give would be different. do you want to do network security, system hardening, pentesting, SecDevOps, malware a***ysis, digital forensics, cloud, etc.?

yea I def need to get into linux more

I think I want to go into cloud security eventually but will prob need to get into networking first. its just hard to make the jump from a generic IT job to security I feel like. I have tons of experience doing various IT stuff in my current job

Look for anything with a Ryzen 5 4xxx series.

Could get lucky n get a M.2 version too.

wtf is this lmao

Help me get a job fam :(

are u going to be a new grad ?
what are CS-related job prospectives like rn with COVID?

yo has anyone used codacademy? how helpful was it

i tried it a few years back but quit hella fast since i was so bored. wanna try learning c++ or something again now that i have more discipline

Yeah just graduated. I'm doing an internship rn.

I know the big companies(Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Bloomberg, etc) are still hiring, but those are the harder ones to get into

Codeacademey, in my personal opinion, is good if you already have the programming basics/fundamentals down and you just want to learn the syntax of a new language.

how fast can i learn python?

Im doing a python for everybody course on coursera and it goes pretty in depth from basic syntax to web scraping to sql and other stuff

what is the learning curve like for you? :
