finally putting ratings on Autechre's Confield album in my iTunes.
it's uh... strange.
this line from a review of that album is what interested me in Autechre in the first place "There are faint glimpses of the melancholy beauty of Autechre's early work, but this experimental, rigidly academic work is a record to respect, not enjoy."
so I started plowing through the whole catalog in chronological order. It's taken me years, but it's been an interesting trip
A line from a review of the album after Confield: "After an LP and several EPs of baffling, beat-damaged digital concrete, Autechre was definitely due for a change."
if I only display the new thing for people who already have prefs saved (preventing the new installers from getting the notice), it could miss people who have deleted the app, but reinstall after the patch
Definitely, Taking on Graduates and teaching them the ropes about ACTUAL projects and development whilst showing them how to get the best out of data binding to a UI.
@Pip I've been working on this: http://i838.photobucket.com/albums/zz310/ChristianCareaga/Mountains_zps54edb052.gif?t=1390577220 Everyone here has seen it already though :P
That is what makes me nervous about trying to go to Europe as a developer. I was considering trying to target CD projekt Red. But I am not sure how the financial situation would turn out.
Well luckily they are cracking down on that sorta thing depending on where you live - location based pay-addition. To make up for localised living costs in more expensive cities (someone help me with the "official" name for that.)
@Blue That sucks man. I have a bunch of friends pulling very high salaries here in the US in some of the cheapest cost-of-living areas. We have it easy here I guess. Then again, they are also solid developers, so it could be just a good company taking care of their employees.
@Blue Are the libraries template heavy? I have been doing C++ for years and I am -just- coming around to being comfortable reading templated code. It can be very annoying to read and develop.
@DeanKnight I'm in the #1 clothes retail company in the world (H&M) and I saved them a sum of nearly £8.5M in the last fiscal year through resources and saved man hours. I get 20K...
@Almo - mostly yes. I know the huge advantages to separating files into their headers and class implementations but fuck me it's tricky to read if you weren't making it yourself.
@DeanKnight I know I'm valuable, that's why I just got 3 job offers and need to actually have interviews to make it official. However, trying to find a job in IT in the city which hosts the University that invented the Artificial Intelligence degree is a little tricky.
I have found the only reason why Im "getting" templates is because I am writing templated code. Reading it is still a bear.. But reading code in general that isnt written by you is tough.
On top of that, templated code might seem better to you because you can keep implementation and declaration all in one file. I personally separate it out using a .hpp and .inl and including the inl within the hpp.
I have to go atm, but when I get back I can see if I can get a good source for learning templates and C++ in general.
