   Best Place to Learn Coding for Free

   I've been using SoloLearn for nearly 2 years, every single day, and it's almost replaced facebook for me. I mean, it's an awesome place, with awesome people. Great place to learn the basics of coding, and practice writing codes, and have a great time.

   👍 Pros:    Friendly and safe community|Well designed courses and challenges|Great gamification

   👎 Cons:    A few connection issues when servers are overloaded.

• Best way to learn JS, Node.JS SQL and Python for "free"?

  You could stick with freeCodeCamp or use SoloLearn. It's a duolingo style app that teaches programming in small exercises instead of full projects. Source: 10 months ago

• Is 45 credits in one term difficult to complete? Should I push my start date and study more before beginning the term?

  That being said, I wouldn't push it back that far. At best, push it back a month, and spend that month on sololearn.com focusing on the Java courses. If you know Java, you can learn Python on the fly. Then keep track of your intended schedule (once you've discussed the order you'll attempt classes with your Mentor; I've just copied your list verbatim) with due dates, as below. The Buffer weeks are there to... Source: 10 months ago

• Programmer in game development. Advice?

  Watch this video by Game Maker's toolkit to understand Unity, after that, learn C# using SoloLearn, it's a Duolingo style (mobile/web)app that teaches programming languages. When you finish both, start doing your own projects and when you don't know something look for documentation, if you don't find any, then search on google, if you still don't find how to do what you want, then you ask on Reddit and StackOverflow.

• need Advice from USA developers

  Additional Certifications never hurt. You could bang out the HTML, JavaScript, and CSS certs on sololearn.com in no time. I challenged my daughter to learn c# and I did it along with her ... 2 weeks and a few hours total later I had a new addition for my linkedin profile. Source: 11 months ago

• Anyone else use code academy to learn programming?

• Ask HN: Best basic to advanced Physics book(s)?

  There are a lot of books, and online courses. Given the breadth of topics in undergrad physics, may I suggest materials from MIT Open Courseware? https://ocw.mit.edu/ My theory is that you can get a sequence of courses, or at least the materials for them, that are consistent. I know this doesn't really answer your book request, but by perusing the online courseware, you might get an idea of which books are... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Would you forgive student loan debt if you were the President?

  Here you go. https://ocw.mit.edu/ That's from the highly acclaimed M.I.T.

• So how DO you do your due dilligence?

  Apply as needed to topics you care about and use. If I was ever seriously using the information Dan presented to me, I'd have to learn more about how to interpret film. One way could be to check out MIT Open Courseware and find a media studies course, look at the readings, and find some basic texts from an introductory course that could help me understand how the information is generated. Another could be to watch... Source: 5 months ago
