He is currently doing some professional work but I dont think he is at Pixar god teir level yet

MORE REGULAR VIDEOS!!!

I enjoy unboxings, except when linus had those videos where he was like "here's the unboxing I'll do the review later on" then didn't do the review -.-

EVGA GTX 560 TI
love this thing still rocks all the new games no sweat on either ultra or high if its rly demanding

Apperently this should also work. Ahh, Asus when will you learn to make better drivers.

does this 100 lines include libraries we right... cause if not this is very easy lol

Brainfuck anyone?
 
I like programming in C especially because of the great freedom - I really miss pointers and stuff in Java (one of the reasons why I don't like Java). C++ is good for huge projects like games, but I still prefer C for smaller projects and, of course, OS development.

I also only started programming in college. My motivations were... buttons! (When I was younger I was fascinated with automated gates and blinds, lights, switches, ...) And then I "met" a computer at my mothers lab where she was doing her PhD research. If I remember correctly it was something like a Macintosh II with a System 6 OS (I could be wrong, I was 7 at the time). Ever since then I always wanted to know how that worked on the inside.
 
Now I'm on my way to the second year of masters degree (majoring in Distributed Systems and minoring in Software Engineering), waiting to know what my thesis subject/project is going to be (I've applied to subjects related to Software Transactional Memory). In the past 4 years I've learned C, C++, Assembly, Scheme/Racket, Lisp, Java, Prolog, SQL, PHP, HTML and C# .NET (among others I can't remember right now). But more importantly I have learned many aspects of Computer Engineering not necessarily bound to a language and technologies provided by some of them: imperative, functional and object-oriented paradigms (the fundamentals behind each language), Software Architectures, OpenMP or MPI, UML, SysML or BPMN, many algorithms (sorting, search in graphs, trees, ...), Operating Systems, bytecode manipulation, meta-programming, among many others.
 
In every programming class at school we do group projects. I've done projects from a train game in Assembly (for a small pedagogic processor) to an app in Android, going through changing parts of an operating system kernel or making a compiler for a made up language (it was called At).

Sheesh am I the only one who just started!?
It all started when a friend built a pc, and i was like damn this is awesome so i built one and wanted to know how everything worked, started programmin in college. OTW to a masters now!

Some people like Java as a starter language (I feel meh about that), probably a better start is VB 6.0, or even the newer Visual Basic on Visual Studio.
 
Some like python as well, but I like VB the best for a starting language. It has a lot more power then people let on and you can do some really fun stuff with it.
I'll help you with any VB if you need too.

its for writing my own game engine

Chees-its or goldfish crackers

I like how this guy thinks!! this is what ive been saying!!

Java on embedded platforms just seems like such a horrible idea. Not having explicit control over your memory is like a death sentence.
Then again I may be a little biased.
Oh how I hate Java...

I wasn't trying to be rude. I think the tone came off a bit harsh though after re-reading it. Sorry Pixxie_Payne

Firstly, not all programmers use Linux. ( I know most of them use it, even I use it, but there are some people who still use windows). So is Linux going to be our primary development OS?
If we are going to use Linux, as it was mentioned earlier we can get a linux virtual machine set up on the Internets and create private accounts on it. You can ssh into them and start programming. All of the user accounts will have no admin privileges and most of the compilers would be installed. So cheating is, with no admin/super user privileges, very difficult if we use this solution.
Or
We could setup a git/svn server on the linux VM where one can upload his/her source code (create repositories of their programs which can be downloaded easily using the terminal). This would remove the operating system limitations, if it is a limitation. One of the draw backs of this is that the source code would be visible to the public. Correct me if I am wrong. But this could increase the possibility of cheating.
Does anyone have any other solution. I think the first one is a doable solution.

all i saw was linux in a couple of posts... just wanted to contribute :D 

iv got a netbook with fedora running on it... nothing special about it but im using it to right some software that i want to work with OUYA... however cause i want to make the programming easier for the game engine im writing some software for that first that should sister with it... i find my self using windows for it allot though which i dont like cause it feels buggier with programming at this level

im a game programmer.... i cant really do anything outside game based programming but im trying to get in to the software side of things now... im working on my own game engine and programming software
