• Practicing Rust, Learning Bevy, Creating a WASM Snake Game for the Browser

  Somewhat tangential, but RustConf last year had a talk[1] about a guy picking up Rust to get better times at Battle Snake[2]. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I1BfSpoWM0 [2] https://play.battlesnake.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: How can I run untrusted Python code?

  You could use a short response timeout (<1s) to make it impractical for human players to participate - for instance, that's what Battlesnake does (https://play.battlesnake.com/). Players provide an endpoint that follows the required API and their code never leaves their machines. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Which learning platform do you use? If you don’t, how do you study and keep yourself up to date with the ever expanding tech industry?

  Also for fun / to answer the passion part: how far can you get in https://warriorjs.com/ or https://play.battlesnake.com/ :) It's getting more advanced than you'd think. Source: about 1 year ago

Those games I made were a part of the Game Development 1 and 2 courses (there is also a 3rd course) on CodeCombat. You code the games entirely on your own from scratch by the use of the knowledge you have gathered from the lessons in the... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Screen-free coding for children: the xylophone maze

  And https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now. I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• What can I do?

  So now, while you have time (yes you have no time now but when you are out of school working with a child and or no summer vacation you will have less time) you can try MIT Scratch or CodeCombat and learn to code. For you it's a long the goal is to make 1 app or a handful of apps in 4 years until you graduate. That's absolutely doable even for someone who knows 0 about coding. Then when you graduate, if you are... Source: 5 months ago

  Https://codecombat.com/ is REALLY good, the free levels have enough content for ~10 weeks for an intro to programming term. Source: 11 months ago
