it honestly feels like high school cs classes are ✨designed✨ to make programming appear to be boring and uncreative
it's frankly absurd that the way programming is introduced is having students spend a year writing java for an autograder

@AnthonyCastrio
tell them it's the closest thing to real magic that we have! literally like in harry potter. learn the right magic words to tell the computer in the correct order, and whatever you can dream will literally happen... as long as you get those magic words right :)...

This is incredibly disappointing, given how powerful replit is when learning to code.
The worst affected by this are people without other devices (furthering inequities in CS), and I really hope

reconsiders.

I was just working with a horribly documented library, and using
@sourcegraph
to traverse the codebase of that library (rather than using the docs site) saved so much time.
Quality code search makes working with open-source libraries so much faster, regardless of docs quality

writing rust is 90% wanting to throw your computer out of the window and 10% admiring the beauty of the language

a decent chunk of these friends who've worked on a creative project after these classes found programming to be so much more fun, and imho these creative projects are how programming should be taught.

2. Practice specific skills on Khan Academy

The Otto team are some of the kindest & smartest people I know – if you're looking to join a great team and a rapidly growing startup, you 100% should join them!!!
Our journey’s been incredible so far; we’re always on the lookout for more engineers and product ninjas to join our team of serial hackers based in sunny San Francisco.
If our mission resonates with you, drop me a note at rishi

Do you use Figma?
Stop.
If you are a web designer, you need to start designing with stone tablets.
Stone tablets hold you accountable to the box model of the earth.
Figma does not.
Figma is a delusion.
Stone tablets are reality.
Have a great day.
