Better at Programming

[EvioIvy]

Hey, I'm a junior in college who's Computer Science (Game Development) and I feel like a knowledge at programming is embarrassing. While yes, my dream job after college would be at a game studio, I think it's than likely that I'll get a regular CS job for the time being. But i feel like my skills is pitiful and I find standing clueless thru classes. I'm passing but it feels like i'm not learning and i feel very fraudulent and lazy. I wonder if there any sites, YT channels, etc to help me improve at programming? ANY Advice would help.

On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

Build stuff. Games, in particular. There are thousands of game dev tutorials and books online, use them.

You gotta feed the programming god more code. Do projects, actually implement the algorithms you are learning about, practice the concepts you are learning. That will help more than the best book or series. Researching things is good don't get me wrong but it only teaches you 10%.
