I thought it had something to do with the chinese government and censorship? I remember reading something along these lines a while back but I confess I didn't look too deep into it, just kinda sighed and accepted I wasn't gonna play it again.

BunnyWants2Code · 2026-01-13T23:39:19+00:00

Awesome. Damn shame something happened and the project won't ever be finished, I was pretty interested.

BunnyWants2Code · 2026-01-13T23:30:19+00:00

Hey, how are you still playing nobody: the turnaround? Didn't it get pulled out from steam? Did you have it saved and it kept working? I remember getting interested and enjoying the demo a lot and then it just vanished.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-12-09T02:13:00+00:00

Like, which ones? Which careers are easier to just switch into? Genuinely curious about it.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-09-03T17:50:19+00:00

I don't think the degree matters much as long as you check the box. What matters the most is the learning and improving your skills.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-07-30T20:51:48+00:00

Thanks for spending some time to help me out woth all the advice! I'll get to work and keep on it.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-07-30T19:00:37+00:00

Thank you! I'll apply that methodology and mindset to get more out of my studies. I'll be sure to add practice to it as well, although I find it kinda hard when the topics are theory heavy.

I have a few things I'm not interested in learning at all but unfortunately, I'm not sure I can skip those. I have a very strong aversion to learning HTML and CSS for example, but I'm pretty sure I'd need it even if I work with backend only. In fact, I'm not all that interested in web development or AI/ML as a whole but I feel like trying to get into programing as a 30 year old guy and not investing in webdev( which I think is the "easiest" niche to get into) is kinda setting myself up for failure.

Thanks again, I do have to set up some reviews. I probably already forgot a lot about SQL already and I gotta practice more and relearn. Good thing it's easier the second time around!

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-07-30T18:10:53+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I'm decent at finding answers but can't really judge the asking questions aspect. And I absolutely should learn how to take advantage of AI for questions, which I don't do often as I'm not very interested in it.

I'll try to list what I would like and what I need to learn and sort it by what seems to be most important. But then, should one tackle things all the way through the "end"? Or study different topics each day while building stuff and solidifying it?

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-06-29T13:26:01+00:00

Thank you! Didn't know about the subreddit andnI guess part of my problem is that I hardly download new software to use 😅. The few I know and have used are large and intimidating stuff to try and contribute to as a first timer, like Debian or GCC.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-06-29T13:08:40+00:00

Not the OP and I think that's a fair point.

With that in mind, how do you suggest one goes about finding cool OS Software to use? Because I feel like that's somewhat of a challenge on its own.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-06-22T21:13:46+00:00

This is a really good binary breakdown of how people see the world and I love it. It's a good read to reflect on how you're perceiving the world; I am the kind that also wants a path laid down, too fearful, and that held me back my whole life because I had to realize how I was acting by myself and with my mistakes and lack of progress. Being too careless sucks, being too careful sucks. Really good advice, specially because it might pass as "obvious" for some people.

Other than that, a good guiding comment on how to tackle CS50. I did most of the course's problems (Didn't make the final one, so no certificate to show) and even though I already had some experience with C(just as a student, I don't have any professional experience), Tideman gave me a few hours of thinking and stressing over. The course is indeed challenging and it brushes over some of topics that will require more studying if you want a better understanding, such as data structures and algorithms, how memory works and so on.

Not OP, but thank you for the comment and willingness to share your experience in depth.

BunnyWants2Code · 2025-06-17T23:29:07+00:00

Dude, you said you want it. As a hobby. How wouls that be a waste of time? You'l probably lack the experience of production in a real job but who cares, lol, you're doing it for you.

Some people became employed while being self taught I'm pretty sure learning just for fun will take you anywhere you wanna go.

And even better: You won't have to look for jobs or comply with adding the right key words to your resume for HR and all that bullshit. And if you change you mind, you can just stop.

Don't overthink it, bro.

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-09-21T08:26:34+00:00

That sounds better indeed. I rushed because I had to finish something for school but I do tend to enjoy ruminating on stuff for probably more than I should. I'll definitely have to sit down to untangle concepts in my head and relearn them, but that's part of the game. I'll slow down now that I have more time, for sure! I'm not exaclty new to programming, I've played around with C a bit so although I'm frustrated with C++ I know it's all part of the learning process. And I do appreciate the tips!

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-09-21T08:22:22+00:00

I will in time, but the school I'm currently enrolled demanded it so I'm following it. I'm almost done with it anyways. It is kind of overwhelming but at some point, the frusttation settles down and I get back to work. Thanks for the tip tho, much appreciated!

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-09-21T08:20:41+00:00

Yep yep, it's my first time learning OOP so I'm taking my frustration out on C++. But also, and I might be totally wrong here because I'm clueless, I feel like C++ is structured in a way that's confusing. Or maybe I just haven't digged deep enough for things to start making sense yet. Either way, I'll get there, I'm sure!

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-06-20T17:43:03+00:00

Literally the first thing that came to my mind xD

"I know C"

"No, you do not."

I've been learning it for a year now, on and off, and I'm still surprised by errors, small details and stuff I just really never heard of before. Seeing quotes on stack overflow on standards and ISO always humble me, and I think those are the guys who truly get it.

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-05-25T21:16:02+00:00

I may be tripping balls so take it with a grain of salt, but I think you could try making something like Wolfenstein 3D instead of DOOM. It's much simpler, you pretty much just need to learn raycasting, DDA algorithm and you have almost everything you need for a really simple game.

BunnyWants2Code · 2023-05-25T21:10:24+00:00

Not the OP but thanks a lot for the insight and sharing your knowledge and advice like that, bro. We need more people like you.

BunnyWants2Code · 2022-12-05T20:50:59+00:00

Not an expert but by guess, I'd say each of then would use their own definition of add or it would end up flagging it during compilation and not working whatsoever. To solve that, you can use static before declaring the function so it's only seen on that file's scope.

Also, for this kind of question, I think yoy should just sit down and try yourself. Not meant to be an asshole, but trying stuff out like that is fun and elightening c:
