For a job? No, it is not worth it. The industry is trash; computing has not produced anything actually useful in over 20 years. Almost everybody that works in the industry now is either retarded or fake or burned out and doesn't care anymore.
For some other purpose? Maybe, but use case matters. I could see some useful knowledge in learning C and using it to program an MCU that drives some other purpose in the physical world.
I wish that I'd picked something else. I am now going back to school to get an engineering degree in some other engineering field because I am tired of fake non-technical execufags treating devs like an expense that needs to be cut.
Our society has lost touch with understanding the technologies that matter, instead we are just all staring at screens while the real technologies that drive civilization break down.
TLDR: Any job which does not have a hands-on component that requires you to come on-site is trash and will just get outsourced to jeets.

>>107824952
Agreed. Honestly programming is fun and a great skill to have, but I'd go with engineering as well. I regret not studying electrical or mechanical engineering way back and opted for compsci which I didn't even finish, because I got a job in the field as a sysadmin and my career went from there. I am doing well now, but definitely regret it. Is it worth pursuing engineering in your 30s?

>>107825016
I personally believe that it is worth pursuing an engineering degree AT ANY AGE and especialy worth pursuing one if you truly plan to go all the way by working in the field and aim for becoming licensed PE in that field as the ultimate goal. https://ncees.org
If said engineering field DOES NOT have a PE designation, then no it is not engineering it is fake.

this is the worst fucking advice ever, no one should follow it. learn to code and use AI to help you

>>107824952
>treating devs like an expense that needs to be cut.
Your fault for demanding 300k for writing 100 LOC a day and whining it's not 500k.

>>107827156
Why would I trust sensitive code development to a third-party company's proprietary machine hosted in a remote data center located in who knows where?

>What’s the proper way to measure your dict in bytes?
write your Python in C using the extension API

like nigga wtf are you doing, you're in a duck typed garbage collected language
>dump straight into a buffer
no, you shouldn't pass arbitrary python objects around like a retard. the standard practice is to serialize them in some way. then you get a string or a buffer of specific length out, but at runtime the size of the object can vary hugely.

It's not an issue at all for models with suspension straps (and you can print capra ones for a lot of models).

Breads about lisp vs emacs. I highly doubt there is retro computing tech that /g/ doesn't know about. They're wizards with their calculators even. I've seen some crazy emulators. Maybe some obscure Russki hardware? Spit balling that...

OH MY SCIENCE IS THAT A RARE INDIGO APTIVA CUBE JR 64?! It runs at a whopping .12 microshartz and has .3 nanobits of RAM. It's soooooooo rare because only 5 were made and it flopped in the German market. It can even run Duke Nukem at 2 FPS!
They just don't make em like they used to!

Blame M$ jeets for making that the default home folder for IIS. It should have been something like C:\ProgramData\IIS or whatever.
Also the fact that the root drive had an ACL (by default) that allows all users to add whatever directory they want and Windows updates running as root and iis specific changes can be tricked into executing arbitrary code.

You're welcome. And seconding other anon, get a Filco or a Leopold.

This would be my pick since I'm partial to MX browns:
https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/leopold-np900rbt-bluetooth-two-tone-white-pd

Sadly doesn't seem like there are many Filco Majestouch boards in stock right now, just the ones with silent reds (not a fan) or the other models with pad printed abs caps (even worse). Hope they'll get more in the future.

The Judaic powers that be print these worthless pieces of paper that they trade for your labor which is worth something so they constantly print more of the paper to take your labor before you notice that the paper is somehow worth even less.
Then they have these gigantic monoliths whose purpose is to do incomprehensible and dark things in service of getting you to want those pieces of paper. One function is they observe and record you at every moment and constantly try to trick you into looking at funny pictures in the hopes you'll trade your paper for the funny things in the pictures.

cant get my right speaker to work on my audio setup
im using a Technics SU-Z15 amp and some nobrand Roadstar HIF-8533L 8 Ohm speakers

amp supposedly allows between 8 and 16 Ohm but i think theres not a good contact of the speaker wires in the rear, ive tried peeling them further and sticking them way in but still nothing

i ordered a 5090 (aorus master ice). i installed it on my computer (along a rm1200e from corsair) and it would boot into a black screen. i tried using display port and hdmi, i tried only 1 monitor, i tried a 1080p monitor (i have 2x 1440p and 1x 1080p). nothing worked. the card lights up, the gay lcd screen on the side shows an animation or whatever, the fans spin up, everything appears to be in order but i just get a black screen. i can't even get to the bios

is there anything i can do about this? i used the corsair rm1200e 12vhpwr cables with it (instead of the gpu adapter that came with it), but i don't think that's the problem. is there anything that can be done besides testing with the other adapter? i have a 4080 and it's working fine with the same setup. i literally booted the 5090, black screen, took it out, put the 4080 and it worked fine. i updated my motherboard bios to the latest version to, that didn't change anything

i think i got a defective card. anything else i should try before i return it?
