Interesting enough, normal people cannot perform CPR on animals in many countries, in some it's actually a felony woot.

So I'm currently looking for internships for next semester. The internship offers for people in my program outnumber us, and so I can chose, although they are all unpaid. Nevertheless, even without a pay, some of them look worse than others:

Yeah it does suck. Even if they payed me minimum wage, it's still a difference of a few k$ after 4 months.

It's a lot simpler that you think it is. You should be able to infer from the analysis what each method of do, e.g. what output you should get when you give it whatever input. Unit testing means that you make another class which is gonna use the method of the class (or of a group of classes, or of a chunk of code, etc) you are trying to test end verify that the output you get is what you are supposed to get. Typically, you want to try with a few different values, especially those that you suspect could cause you a problem. For example, let say you have  class called Math with a method .modulo(int n1, int n2), then you would want to verify that Math.modulo(4,4) gives you 0, that Math.modulo(100,49) gives you 2 and that Math.modulo(2,0) throws an ExceptionDivisionBy Zero, etc. There really isn't much more to it than this.  You barely even have to use your brain. Which is why it's one of the most mindnumbingly boring things programmers have to do.


To be frank, I have to admit I often skip this step altogether. I find it less boring to program the other classes right way and wait until I see bugs during the integrating testing phase. It's actually a very bad habit from my part because sometime it can produce hidden bugs that you don't detect until it's too late. And it can also make a simple bug more difficult to resolve because it's harder to detect where a problem is coming from when every parts of a software are working together than when you are only testing one class.

I'm more into front end development than strict programming, so the most I'd really use it for I figure is some chunks of JavaScript code. Then again, I've built some things in JavaScript before that go beyond just simple DOM manipulation like a browser text-based adventure game and for a while it was riddled full of commented out Alert popup scripts that I felt really embarrassed about after the fact.

I'm watching some Jasmine JS videos on YouTube and it does seem pretty simple overall but also very tedious and boring so I can understand why anyone would skip it altogether. But I figure I might as well sit down and learn this stuff now if I want to ever sell myself as fluent in ~*Industry Best Practices*~ beyond just separation of concerns.

Unit testing is like regular testing but really small.

Being the sole coder in my past programming projects, I never bothered writing tests at all. DIY FTW

So it's the StandardITJerb.

Yeah me too, I've gotten into a habit of just throwing a couple of selected inputs at my code and deciding "welp, it works". I know I should save them and be more comprehensive about my inputs, I also know it's easy enough to setup unit tests. Problem is, I have trouble giving enough of a fuck to do it. And I know it's going to get me in trouble too.

If you guys wanted to keep up with the Funimation English dub of One Piece and avoid the Japanese version all together would you rather watch 2 episodes a week or 13 episodes every 2 months right as they're released?

So close to getting my tablet back, but noooo, before i could fulfill my deal the exam centers chose the perfect time to close up this is really getting irritating, my mom was talking something about getting me a smartphone but dad refused as it would use up my credits, is there a way to get a smartphone that doesn't require credits? As in a no carrier smartphone or something like that? Because if your credit goes too low you will be blacklisted from basic services?
