C++.
Writing OSs? Check. It's basically C with some bells and whistles, and mostly every piece of metal can accept C.
Writing games? Check. C++ is the language of choice for game engine development.
Writing keyloggers/malware? Check. C++ is tiny when compiled, and efficient to run, thus hard to detect. Also can be easily obfuscated, thus hard for AVs to detect.
Hacking? Check. Any language which you can use to network you can use to hack. However, script languages might be more useful for that...

And from C++ it's easier to move on to other languages. Because with C you learn the basics of programming. That's why it's taught at universities as the language of choice at any CS course.

All the advantages you listed are really C's advantages, not Crosses' advantages. The only thing the Crosses have that C doesn't are templates, and they are an ugly and chaotic mess.

Lishp.
Writing OSs? Check. It's basically braces with some bells and whistles, and mostly every piece of metal can accept Lishp.
Writing games? Check. Lishp is the language of choice for game engine development.
Writing keyloggers/malware? Check. Lishp is tiny when compiled, and efficient to run, thus hard to detect. Also can be easily obfuscated, thus hard for AVs to detect.
Hacking? Check. Any language which you can use to network you can use to hack. It's even more useful for that because it's a script language.

what the fuck am i reading?

>>3772
It's urine.hk/pr

...a simple type system like in C++, and a crutch without which you can't do anything other than a factorial, called a mondad.

this should show a little bit about scopes. I whipped it up in a few minutes

you can still use strict, in fact as a rule of thumb any perl program that exceeds a page in length should use strict to prevent the program from becoming unmanagable.

higher level variables are always passed on to a scope (or a block, rather, the correct term is a block in this case) however you can mask variables within a block by redeclaring them.

so,

>>3758
thank you knd anon, i feel like a massive cock for not thinking of that

Holy crap, the problems perl-fags face are so hilarious. It's like you're humping a dead horse and asking how not to get sick from the rotting meat.
Found a way not to place a dollar sign before every damn variable yet?

>>3786
> use php
That thing's not dead yet? ZOMG.

>>3789
Hey, n00bs have to learn somewhere. Php is easy to install, easy to learn, and does wonders with Javascript, if you name it as AJAX.

>>3786

Thanks

>>3630
I do talk to the recruiters. I agree with you.

I'm not a front-end developer, though. I know nothing of the front-end technology, besides a little javascript.

They always want SQL or php, and though I don't know those things, it shouldn't be hard to pick up. I don't know where to start on practicing that stuff, because, as far as I know, it needs a server, or a database on a server?

>>3637
if you run with linux, what is your problem?

>>3637
Google wamp. When I have to develop php & sql under m$, I use IIS (Win7 part), php manager and a 64 bit sql server. Make sure to free localhost:80 and localhost:3306, though.

Hmmm... Make it so that the mediator application is either non-existent (hard mode) or platform-independent, as your entire system. And as SMS costs money, do a two-way synchronization between the PC host and the android client, cross-adding relevant contact information. If available, then pidgin will use instant messaging through skype, if not, pidgin will automatically send sms or mms from the droid. All while staying platform-independent on the pc side.

Well, it strikes me that using something like Mumble would be a good idea. I am not really looking to pick up a language, but I am a solid social engineer and I have plenty of other abilities. Is freedomhost still working on TOR?

>>3777
freedom hosting is a piece of shit ever since onionforum closed and the owner fucked off.

im keen for this. im an entry level programmer, i know only very basic java, html and c++ and i would like to get more knowledge

>>3752
the book thread has some beginners books in there, although we're not removing it simply because some newbies would be frightened - its an imageboard, its a bit disorganized, until we make an imageboard that better suits pdfs anyway.

we could start a beginners thread, we had one in the old /pr/ for game design, but it requires people to manage it and more importantly, respond to a beginners questions.

If anything, we could sticky some links to some beginners resources, which could include websites or books that everyone should read.

>>3765
Yeah, thats what I was thinking about. I can compile some links if you want.

>>3766
if you're willing to go that far, then perhaps we can support it and sticky it. something elegant though, easy to read and accessible for someone new.

As the other posters already pointed out, it's a convenient thing. And programming under linux is pretty damn convenient. That's because of a few things:
1. Package managers, they handle installing and maintaining of the libs you need. This is a huge pain in the butt under Windows. This also makes it easy to test/try out new stuff and removing it again without headaches.
2. It is ridiculously configurable/programmable/scriptable. You can control every little detail of the system as you see it fit. This takes some time and effort, but i think it's really worth it.
3. The whole OS is your IDE. As you can customize it however you like, you could beef up your terminal emulator, and map it to some Keybinding. Now your terminal, and thus git and friends, is just one key away. If you happen to use an extensible editor like vim or emacs, you could hook your browser up to display documentation. And you could coordinate all those windows in a tiling window manager with many virtual desktops, making it easy to jump around between IRC, different files, the documentation and your porn.
4. The community. There are a lot (most?) of linux users using linux for coding one way or the other, so it's possible to get help, suggestions and inspirations from people on how to make the system behave the way you want.

However at work i (have to) use a windows box.
It's not that bad. It's quite nice working with VS and .Net, because everything is integrated tightly works rather well. However it forces it's way of doing things on you.
Another thing is that i can not imagine to Program something more exotic than .Net stuff, like Haskell or Idris, effectively under Windows. Without an already pre-made full-blown one-size-fits-all IDE you are pretty much screwed there.

>>3755
I laughed a lot more then I should have.

That is how I felt when had to do some school stuff in Delphi. That said, it would have been entirely possible to hook the compiler part of the thing into say Notepad++ and have it mostly in my way, but I ditched Delphi immediately after the introductory course.
