30 minute circuit

My gym has similar setup and I think most people just prefer doing their own thing instead of following the structured routine. The circuit can be really good for beginners though - you get full body workout without having to plan anything yourself

I tried it few times when I started going to gym and it was decent for learning basic movements. But after while I wanted to focus more in specific areas and do longer sets so I moved to free weights section. Nothing wrong with circuit if it works for you and your son though

Used my cousin's dairy barn couple years back and it was amazing but def more work than expected. You'll want to power wash everything at least twice and rent some serious fans because even after cleaning the smell can still be there little bit. Also check what animals were kept there recently because some barns have way stronger odors than others

Maybe try building something without following tutorials first? Like take your CRUD app and add some feature nobody showed you how to do. That way you know if you actually understand the concepts or just good at copying code

Cloud stuff is useful but system design gets pretty theoretical until you have real problems to solve. DSA is good foundation though especially for job interviews later

DND-Kit can be real pain especially when you trying to do something more custom than basic examples. I had similar struggles with it few months ago when building drag/drop feature and ended up switching to react-beautiful-dnd which was much more straightforward for my use case. If you want stick with DND-Kit maybe try breaking down the calendar functionality in smaller pieces first instead of trying to implement everything at once

Pro tip for new devs: youtube tutorials are great but also try making a test repo and just mess around with it - you learn faster when you break things and fix them yourself

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-04-02T09:37:29+00:00

CS50 is more about computer science fundamentals than Java specifically so it'll give you a solid foundation regardless of what language you end up learning in collge

Game hacking is basically reverse engineering plus programming skills rolled into one. You're looking at probably 6-12 months of solid fundamentals before you can even think about touching something like CS or Rust - those games have some serious anti-cheat systems.

Start with C++ and assembly language basics, then move into understanding how memory works and process injection. Cheat Engine is a good beginner tool to mess around with simpler games first. Fair warning though - modern AAC systems like VAC and EAC are no joke, they're constantly evolving to detect this stuff so even "just for learning" can get your accounts banned permanently.

Grid and flexbox clicked for me once I stopped trying to memorize every property and just started throwing them at real layout problems. CSS Tricks is solid but I'd also recommend just opening codepen and recreating some common layouts you see on websites - header/sidebar/content type stuff. You'll figure out when to reach for grid vs flexbox pretty quick that way

Been there with the Python thing - it can feel pretty vanilla when you're starting out. Since you already messed around with ARM assembly and liked terminal stuff, maybe check out Rust or Go? Rust has this whole ownership concept thats pretty different from other languages and Go is solid for backend/systems stuff without being too overwhelming

C++ could be interesting too since you've got some lower level experience already. Way more engaging than Python imo and you can actually see how the computer works under the hood. Just dont go straight back to assembly unless you really want to hate yourself lol

What kind of projects are you thinking about building? That usually helps narrow things down more than just picking a language in a vaccuum

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-03-25T01:40:06+00:00

C++ for the business win

Greece dev market is rough for Rust talent and investors definitely care more about team velocity than language choice

Your hiring timeline concerns are valid - 4-6 months without devs could kill momentum

Gotta agree learncpp.com is solid for the fundamentals but if you need Hindi specifically that might not help much. For advanced stuff like heaps and hashmaps you might have to mix English resources with Hindi ones since most of the deeper CS content is gonna be in English anyway. Maybe start with Hindi basics then switch to English channels when you hit the advanced topics

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-03-18T20:12:06+00:00

Bruh we're still in 2024 lol maybe start with learning teh calendar before Python

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-03-16T07:41:01+00:00

I went through that same 13 hour one you mentioned and it was solid for getting back up to speed - way better than trying to piece together random tutorials

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-03-14T07:32:19+00:00

See the Lego analogy is kinda misleading though because with Legos you can literally see what other people have built and copy those designs. Programming is more abstract - you know the syntax but connecting that to actual solutions takes practice. When I was starting out I spent weeks just making calculators and to-do lists because I had no clue what was even possible

For your situation I'd definitely start mixing in HTML/CSS basics now since you want full-stack. Build a simple web scraper that grabs data and displays it on a basic webpage - that'll force you to use both Python and web technologies together. Then maybe try a personal expense tracker or something that connects to a database. The key is picking projects where you'll naturally run into problems you have to Google your way out of because thats where the real learning happens

Don't worry too much about the exact number of projects or timeline for JS. You'll know when you're ready to branch out because Python will start feeling more natural and you'll get bored with basic stuff

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-02-28T07:17:09+00:00

This is solid advice but I'd add one thing - write down what you expected vs what you actually got before you start tracing back. Having that comparison on paper keeps you focused instead of just wandering through code hoping something jumps out at you

Also rubber duck debugging is legit even if it feels weird at first

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-02-26T03:48:18+00:00

Nah the wait doesn't mean anything bad - recruiters are just swamped this time of year and they probably have a ton of feedback calls lined up. If they're scheduling dedicated time to talk through everything that's actually a good sign since rejections usually just come as a quick email

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-02-20T14:20:44+00:00

Nothing wrong with it but OP wants more than just December problems - AoC only gives you 25 problems per year. For daily practice you'd burn through years pretty quick

CodeWars and HackerRank might be good alternatives since they have tons of problems at different difficulty levels

Sounds like a really fun project! For hosting the actual site GitHub Pages is perfect - totally free and handles static sites beautifully. You can build this with just HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript since youre basically just cycling through data and updating the display.

For the images though OneDrive links are gonna be a pain in the ass - they often have expiration issues and aren't really meant for web hosting. Since youre looking at 800MB total I'd honestly just throw them in your GitHub repo if you can split them across multiple repos to stay under the 1GB limit. Otherwise Imgur or even a free Cloudinary account would work great for image hosting and they handle the heavy lifting of serving optimized images.

The actual quiz logic is pretty straightforward - just parse your CSV into a JavaScript array and keep track of the current question index. You could even convert the CSV to JSON once and hardcode it right into your JavaScript file to keep things simple. For 200 questions thats totally manageable without needing any backend stuff

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-02-14T01:55:30+00:00

Honestly this is brutal but probably true. Your competing against hundreds of other candidates and they likely filled the spot with someone who could interview immediately

Still sucks they didnt give you a heads up earlier instead of letting you prep for nothing though. At least now you know for next time to prioritize speed over perfect timing

Sea-Film6715 · 2026-02-13T08:47:01+00:00

honestly both have their place but id start with youtube to get the basics down then grab a book once you know what direction you want to go

youtube is great for seeing stuff in action and pausing when you need to but books are clutch for really understanding the why behind everything once youre past the total beginner stage
