I got to like half of K&R and skimmed the rest.
I finished around of 80% of Python Crash Course.
I finished around of 80% of The Rust Programming Language.
I really tried to read C++ Primer but only got to like page 250. That thing is gigantic.
I really tried to read Introduction to Algorithms (CLRS) but, just haven't.

I feel like reading programming books is a form of procrastination, at least for me. I mean, it's learning, and it's a good use of time. But it still doesn't really feel like working. I still am jobless and still feel like a junior.

>>108495047

If you want no memory protection, use TempleOS.

That's a microkernel, even if people don't like it.
Just ask yourself if you can open multiple files in one call without any thread blocking. If the answer is "yes" it's probably not micro.

Take it even further. A function is not allowed to directly call a function that exists in the same source file; doing so clearly violates encapsulation or whatever.
Your code will never be Clean™ if you can't even do that.

Odin Chads, is there any benefit in learning Go first, or at the same time? (Coming from Rust and a little C++)

Since I'm a jobless junior, without much hope for the future, I was thinking about just learning Odin for fun and recreational programming, but I've heard many people here and in other places saying that Odin takes a lot of inspiration from Go and that it actually a good idea to pick both languages for slightly different purposes. Like maybe I could pick up Go to try to increase my chances of getting a job, and maybe using Odin for recreational purposes and learning graphics/game dev on my free time. What do you think?

>>108496492
so your goal is to make a language for 1337 coders? making a good language is not your goal?
I don't see any type anywhere

>>108496531
>is there any benefit in learning Go
it's trash

>>108496574
It's not my language, retard. It's Arturo

Can you dumb down a language more than Python?

>>108496531
>fun and recreational programming
>chance of getting a job
well which is it? looks like this is the crux of the issue here

That said, Odin + Go is a pretty good "stack"! I personally use Go only for web stuff and Odin for everything else

>>108496643
>well which is it? looks like this is the crux of the issue here
Well, if we're talking priorities, I'd say it is deffinitely way more important to get a job, so maybe I should focus on learning Go (I already know a tiny bit). But like I said, I feel quite hopeless for the current state of the industry. I kinda don't expect to get a job, almost at all. So I feel like I might as well just do Odin for "fun", it anything.

>Odin + Go is a pretty good "stack"!
Cool, thanks for the opinion

Finally.

>>108496531
stop wasting time on decisions like this and learn some language and see how it goes. You don't have limited skill points, you don't have to pay real money to respec after you hit a cap. The ability to program is much more important than knowledge of any particular language.

>>108496176
Beats me. C has better code generation (no, inlining everything doesn't lead to better execution times), and just like with C its standard libraries are tuned for portability, not speed - if you want that you go back to C bindings for the kernel.

>>108496410
You might be.

I mean.
Are these "hard" problems genuinely HARD, and they need some sort of advanced discrete math or shit; or is the "hard" label just a way of saying "this needs you to know DFS" or something like that?

I've never done much leetcode, I find it annoying and weird.

In other words, try to describe the difference or difficulty jump between easy medium and hard.
