And how do we test this claim?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Remove one. I suggest you test on someone else.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Again, how exactly can this be done? You have not yet given any answers, only yet another claim.
I have another theory. Living cells are immortal. The presence of a soul is not needed. Instead, parasitic evil spirits cause them to age and eventually die. Now what?

As I already stated, I can't go into detail here in the Lounge (no talk of God) or I'm sure those who love to mark as abusive will go off on me. I'll gladly go into it in the Soapbox if you care enough.

No need. I have seen enough people who, in a way, have sold their souls and don't want to live like them in my own little hell full of anger and fear. A little rational thinking is my defense against them.

It sounds like you're trying to be offensive. Since you know absolutely nothing about me, I'll let it pass.

Why should I do that? Sorry if it looked that way. It was getting late and I obviously jumpeed to the last chapter a little too quickly.
What I really meant to say is that you are probably right that this is not the right place for such a discussion. Religion can be a dangerous topic. Preachers and missionaries will not have much fun with me, simply because I refuse to blindly repeat anything they say, no matter how illogical it may be. Some 'holy men' don't react kindly or understandingly when someone asks too many questions. To keep the peace, I do not doubt god, but I doubt the motives of many who claim to speak in his name.
The other side are people who you might call 'evil'. While I never will understand why some people apparently can't live without making others lives miserable, I still don't need a devil as explanation. It is their own fear, anger and weakness. Those things are not rational, just as the results usually are destructive and irrational. Those are the people I would say who have lost their souls, of course not literally.

I hope this is the right spot to put this question. If it is not, I'm sorry, and please move it to where it should be.
Anyways, I'm very, very new to programming - and I'm just starting out with it in college. But what I have noticed while I learned Python, is that there is tons of information you have to know. And because of that, you need some type of system to organize the notes.
I was wondering how you guys organize your programming and algorithm notes. Because mine just look like a big pile of poop. I've tried a few different systems with it, but it seems too cluttered and unorganized.
Is there any system that you guys recommend for taking your programming notes?

Don't organize anything - Google it when needed. You will shortly remember the true necessities.
|
|
|
|

I have tried that but I feel like there is WAY too much information, and I can't remember hardly anything at all (Plus I have the memory of a 200 year old. I mean that literally).

Then set yourself up a WordPress site, and post the solutions there after you've Googled them. Reading and writing - two stages of the memory conduit... You can then search that way, if you enter a description before the code. You don't even have to publish it on a real site - set up a WAMP server on your local drive.
Or write an article and post it on CP of what you are learning. Many may scoff at Newbie articles of such a nature, but if it works for you, and you don't care about low article ratings... Or make it semi-autobiographical - maybe the ratings would go up.

I thought that was what Tips & Tricks was for, I started posting 1 or 2 liners that I used with the intention of being able to come back any time and peruse them when trying to remember a neat bit of code I just know I have done before.

Maybe KeepNote[^] would work.
There is also a portable version at PortableApps.com[^].
Python itself is rather portable, as are the majority of modules for it.
A guide for a portable MoinMoin Wiki[^] can be found here[^]. It's a bit old, but the steps are mostly the same.
Simply set the PYTHONUSERBASE[^] variable to point to your drive using a batch file, e.g:
@echo off
set PYTHONUSERBASE=%~d0\AppData\Python
start cmd
I have a much more complex file that sets up Python (2.7 and 3.4), Ruby, Perl, Apache HTTP Server, Node.JS, PHP, MariaDB, Atom, ConEmu and a 'few'* other programs. It also configures Pip (A Python package manager) to use the drive as well.
I can pull out the parts relevant to Python for you if you want.
* I actually have quite a few programs on the drive, a lot more than listed here. Most of them are 64-bit, and some that don't have 64-bit Windows versions I am building myself for 64-bit (e.g. Mono/GTK#). I also plan on hacking MonoDevelop to enable portable usage.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Brisingr Aerowing thanks for the reply. I really shouldn't of mentioned the part about Python, because it really doesn't have to do with Python. I'm just looking for a note taking system that people seem to like / use - in the programming industry.
I'll try out the programs you suggested.

That's what comes in handy at the right time. All others need to be indexed, and searched. Having said that, there's an interesting quote from Conan Doyle, where Sherlock Holmes says:
“I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has a difficulty in laying his hands upon it. Now the skillful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic. He will have nothing but the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large assortment, and all in the most perfect order. It is a mistake to think that that little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones.”

EverNote is your friend
I just plonk notes in there, grab web clips etc. and don't worry too much about organisation
Later I might organise the notes, but the search is good enough most of the time.
(I'm not saying I don't organise at all - I have notebooks for different subjects, but in ech notbook I just splat in information.
It's fast, fun and freeeeeee!

Finally back with internet connection! I'll try EverNote, OneNote annoys me. Thanks for the help.

Not really, just a text file with a manually kept index. Soon enough you'll delete most of the things in it because they are trivial and already burned forever in your mind.

Seriously Google is your friend.
You can't know everything in programming, and in many ways, I have always found that it's not what you know, its how to find the answers based on requirements and apply those findings that counts.
I do use OneNote for notes, but usually for ideas rather than code snippets.
