I first learned the basics of C by myself and a little help from friends, after that I learned C++ at school, php, MYSQL, and so on.
I'm a big fan of the KISS principle.
I don't like languages like java, C#, javascript, but am a big fan of python.
I still have to learn to do some good haskell.
I'm currently making a 3D game with Ogre3D and bullet with my free time. I intend to make a minimalist RPG where you can harvest different types of material and scraps, and learn to build new things for your survival and the worker you hire.
I'm also thinking about a level editor to make very big levels with the help of procedural generation. After using Enet as a networking library, I'll release my new MMOFPS and make millions of dollars. But I should maybe find a job first.
I'm also interested in maths and cryptography, but I don't master those subjects.

Why is C so high in TIOBE index of popularity, while C++ is just under here too, but not as popular? It's crazy, I feel like I'm in europe, and people are fighting to either talk english, german, spanish, french... but the elite who actually talks latin and greek are like "fuck it", it's just a political/corporate game. That's why I'm angry not being able to get a job. |

Why is C so high in TIOBE index of popularity, while C++ is just under here too, but not as popular? @james yes, but all in all, if tiobe has C and java and C++, it's because most of the existing running code was actually written before the bubble burst, but this code needs to be maintained, that's why those languages are first. There is still a lot of code written on the languages you described. Don't takes linus's rant too seriously, he is right from a kernel dev perspective, I also don't find C++ much relevant, but linux did not invent unix either. When I said pyramid scheme, I meant the handful of programmers writing their code are so few, it doesn't really make C/C++ that much popular. |

Sites jobs in france, please no :( |

The applications for users ? Once those core services you are talking about are coded and debugged, they're ran, but you do nothing just by using them. |

Why is Objective-C not widely used beyond Cocoa environments? Sorry for the rant, but even if being a developer means you have to learn new things, it doesn't mean you have to forget everything you already know. I heard the messenger functionality of objc is made with some optimized ASM code. What a mess, how can you tell devs to understand that ? How about drivers and kernels devs ? Macs are just Cadillacs you use to drive, they're just fancy expensive objects that sell so you can just check email, watch a dvd. Want to add some software to that thing ? good luck pal. forget all existing soft, and do the apple way TM. |

Why is Objective-C not widely used beyond Cocoa environments? thanks, that's obviously the answer I was looking for. ritchie made C to make teamwork possible; "C is quirky flawed and an enormous success"; this quote MEANS you have to make a flat, simple language so that many people can understand it, and it doesn't mean it has to be an "awesome" language. Nobody wants to complain about objc, because nobody likes it. "there are language people complain about, and language nobody use" bjarne stroustup. At least windows was able to make the computer industry grow even with a corporate clusterfuck, and I hope apple fails because they don't care about devs. |

How do operating systems… run… without having an OS to run in? Don't forget most computer follow the most flexible model of bootstrapping, some other systems (I guess it was amiga) actually had their 'OS' hardwired into the chip (or something like that). You could also look at how Apple 'simplify' its hardware model since they only have to code drivers and kernel for the hardware they sell, which makes the bootcamp divers for windows a little crappy actually (my macbook is always warmer in windows). Flexibility is a good thing, until PC vendors only release drivers for windows. I wonder what vendor google rely on for its server drivers. |

What is the relevance of resumes in the age of GitHub, Stack Exchange, Coursera, Udacity, blogs, etc.? yes, human resources are always the ones sorting things out, it's really questionable when the domain requires a minimum of science to understand what matters. I'm in the same problem, I'm starting to lose count how many times I've been advised to edit my resume. |
