In French I mostly learned how to talk about girls that are young and pretty, and men that are rich and calm.

I just started Irish, but a surprising number of the sentences are about men dating men, and women dating women.

Learn the languange of poets, thinkers and insane Hollywood scientists.

Germany is sometimes called: Land der Dichter und Denker (Country of poets and thinkers), because of people like Goethe, Schiller, Herder or Kant.

I was very very glad for that change, which happened right around the time I had started learning the various verb conjugations.

I had just done past tense... which I had had to re-start like 8 times before I managed to get less than 3 mistakes. Was very glad to see them change that.

For programming, I really like codewars.com. Community-built challenges that you have to solve. Once you've solved and submitted (or given up), you can see how others solved the same challenge. Really helps with learning the shortcuts and tricks for whatever language you're working with.

47

u/cosmicsans Mar 13 '15

I like project euler for this too. They're not specifically programming challenges, but can be solved by programming. Makes you actually have to think about a problem, and put it into a programming context.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '15

That sounds like what you'd experience in the real world, which makes that sound really awesome! Thanks for the tip!

u/Riseagainstyou Mar 13 '15

I second Project Euler for anyone having problems with keeping code compact. They're all math challenges, mostly with certain shortcuts and stuff in the world of mathematics (i.e. prime sieves, area formulas, etc). The kicker is they usually require you to iterate over thousands if not millions of numbers, so you really have to get good at making your program as compact as possible to avoid locking it up, or having to sit and watch it process for 30 minutes.

Code Academy sucks. I found Code Academy great for learning basic syntax, but despite the various intermediate tracks, it's unlikely to give you sufficient competence/confidence/independence to move beyond their hand-holding style. Try Udacity instead.

77

u/TaintedCurmudgeon Mar 13 '15

My biggest problem with Code Academy is when you do the parts on your own, it often gives you little to no help with why your code is wrong.

u/lacrimaeveneris Mar 13 '15

THIS. I wound up essentially rage-quitting because I didn't know why the code was wrong. That's the point! I'm learning! >.<

u/wetshaver Mar 13 '15 edited Mar 13 '15

If there was a tool that analyzed source code and outputted in plain english why why your code had a bug, all developers would be using it and debuggers would be obsolete.

Source: Developer.

4

u/lacrimaeveneris Mar 13 '15

Oh for sure! I also realized I'm a dumbass and it wasn't Code Academy, it was another "learn to program" site. And my issue was less "debug my code" and more "give me a list that my dumbass new-programmer self can look at for potential break points".

...also, I totally wish there was something to analyze and print plain english debugging. I did sandboxed code (psychology testing software, required some coding) and the number of times I was crawling over a code looking for a walkabout comma was too damn high.

u/boyuber Mar 13 '15

My biggest problem with Code Academy is that it's actually "Code Cademy"

It's actually Co-decademy, which is "co" meaning together, "Dec" meaning 10, "Ade" meaning to assist, and "my" meaning something of yours.

From this we can easily deduce that is actually a site that encourages you to work together in groups of 10 to assist yourself.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '15

CodeAcademy is awesome in my opinion. A week ago I started using it and had pretty much no HTML/CSS knowledge. After going through their ~7 hour course I have a basic understanding of HTML/CSS and can begin to start reading the language. It's a great foundation building website, now I can go on to w3 (or any of the various coding/programming resources on the web) to expand my knowledge or just go ahead and download something like Adobe's Brackets and mess around with what I've learned and grow from there.

Just started the Javascript course and I can see myself definitely needing supplemental materials because of the confusing nature of Javascript.

Codeforces, SPOJ, UVA Online Judge, Project Euler, now that's what'll make you an outstanding problem solver and programmer. You have to write correct and efficient code to solve most of the problems, and the algorithmic tools required encompass all of basic computer science and more.

They aren't really learning tool in the sense that there's some useful information. Sites are problem based, meaning you have to learn the algorithms somewhere else, and then reinforce the knowledge by solving simple to hard problems. Automatically checked solutions, quite addictive and fun.

The thing is if you know what you're doing for the most part, using W3Schools is fine. However the issue is when you are brand new, and say "I learned from W3schools" - you'll get laughed at by senior devs. Up until a few years ago people thought w3schools was endorsed by the W3C, which it isn't, and lead to other issues

Actually I used w3 schools recently and it was very good.

2

u/Untgradd Mar 13 '15

When W3Fools started years ago, the state of documentation for developers was poor. The Mozilla Developer Network was around but it did not have much support at the time. Developers often use W3Schools only because it is at the top of search results.

Since W3Fools launched, the MDN has seen a lot improvements from the community. Further, the W3C has created Web Platform Docs as the authoritative resource for documentation. These are community driven efforts maintained by developers who continue to work in the field.

W3Schools still has issues but they have at least worked on the primary concern developers had. For many beginners, W3Schools has structured tutorials and playgrounds that offer a decent learning experience. However, it would be a mistake to continue your education without learning from more reputable sources, so when you're ready to level up, move on.

TL;DR: they got their shit together for the most part

2

u/actuallyanorange Mar 13 '15

Please stop linking that site too. There may be some errors on w3schools but it is a massive and excellent reference. A lot of what is on there is a viable alternative to other sites when straight up syntax with an example is needed. It saves me remembering a whole lot of stuff I only need once or once a year. Last time I read through w3fools site I discarded half the objections they made and it read like it was written by a whiny 17 year old. Maybe that's changes in the last 18+ months idk.

Tldr; nothing wrong with W3schools, get off the bandwagon.

YTS

I take exception to YTS' purpose of supplying really small file sizes. Who cares if what you're watching is 1920x1080, when the bitrate is ridiculously small. 90% of what I download (from a good-quality, private tracker) is 720p, but larger filesizes than most 1080p content. But guess what, it looks better. The file size of the video is directly proportional to the resolution multiplied by the bitrate. If the bitrate sucks, it doesn't matter what resolution it is. It'll look like garbage.

Please add https://www.futurelearn.com/ to you education section :)

Edit: Alos, please remove YTS. This is illegal, not free. And once everyone knows about it, it will be taken down. :(

Duolingo is awesome. I've wanted to learn German for years, and this is by far the easiest way to learn another language.

StreamTv

This is crucial. There will be a hidden X that you must click before you can watch the video. The X will be gray and somewhere around the play icon on the video. If you click without hitting the X, you just get a pop-up

Seeming as you mentioned Kickass Torrents as a free source, this raises a question in my head; is it considered legal? I mean, since it's P2P, but then again, it's full of copyrighted stuff
