Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 27, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted June 27, 2017 Are the not as good yank planes we bought instead going to be ready in time. I'm sure I read somewhere that they weren't I thought there was some joint input into this plane, just checked, Britain contributes about 15% of the airframe. RR make the lift fan in the "b" variant. We are the only tier one partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Carlos Posted June 27, 2017 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2017 Excellent...powered by XP http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4640214/HMS-Queen-Elizabeth-maiden-voyage.html We still use Xp to run programs from the 90s that we occeasionally need. Virtualised of course. When we did military/aerospace software at uni it was in Ada, no fucker will learn this anymore. Kids are too busy doing degrees in computer gaming and web design. Fuck knows where the next generation of proper software developers are coming from. Not this country for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Carlos Posted June 27, 2017 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2017 Oh loads of kids can programme, just not in the stuff we need or where the jobs are. We all start somewhere like but we are having to cross train away from noddy degrees. I guess because systems programming is fucking hard.

SatanGreavsie Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 If its not is BASIC anymore then I'm out. Aye - I lost interest after they got rid of tape recorders to load stuff and the best you could hope for was to get it to flash up "fuck off" when your mate pressed a key. Of course, the fact that I lost interest in it had nothing to do with the fact I possessed not an iota (or even one byte) of ability in the area.

Eg folk learning Java and relying on garbage collection when using other languages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter only1swanny Posted June 27, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted June 27, 2017 Wow, I was actually decent with Basic, there's hope for me yet! C is rare... It's an option for GCSE Computer Science, but a lot of kids won't access it.. I reckon most do Python as the GCSE language of choice.. I'm clueless with C, I could learn it but for what I need there is very little point atm, and I have other things I need to focus on, as I'm no longer teaching Business Studies...

land_and_sea Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I think the problem with microsofts programming software(vb.net) and such is that it contains too much paint by number coding procedures. Connecting to a database for example. Real programmers should know how to program in notepad or ms-dos. There's just too much programing with training wheels.

Moderators Carlos Posted June 27, 2017 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) I used to work mainly in Vi, now use Visual Studio, sell out. Python is used out there, we have a product that BMW use in it, it's OO so transferable but still leaves a skills gap in the lower languages. Problem with India is they see the wages in London and have no interest in the north, or move there later. We last recruited from the EU, that's out the window too.
