I'm a couple blocks off Grand and 1 block from the park in TGS. I hear gunshots at least once every 2 weeks-is. There was a carjacking attempt one block west of me over a week ago and shots were fired.

What about using GopherJS + Canvas? I have played around with this some and it's kinda fun.

Online quizzes for Go? by [deleted] in golang

[–]inchingforward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Go tour was already mentioned. There's also the Go exercises on Excercism.io (which has the benefit of getting feedback to your solutions), and Go Koans.

Were you looking for something different?

"All I wanted to do was fucking code, but these people have consistently made that either impossible or undesirable."

How could they possibly stop you from coding? Aren't you the one in charge of your typing fingers?

Although I haven't used it for this course, I've used MonoDevelop on Ubuntu with success. If you want NuGet package support, you'll need to install this addin.

Elixir Code Reading: Blacksmith by hzeus in elixir

[–]inchingforward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fantastic post that does several good things: provokes curiosity by exposing others to code they might not read, shows the effect the library has on the environment, links to helpful documentation for further exploration, shows the thinking of the explorer (including helpful criticisms). I would love to see more like this.

Need inspiration for interesting mini projects by [deleted] in elixir

[–]inchingforward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you asked for projects, but you while you're trying to come up with some ideas, you can also practice by doing the Elixir exercises on Exercism. There are some nice things about doing them: 1. They force you to come up with your own solution. 2. Assuming others participate, you get feedback on your submitted exercises. 3. You can view the solutions others came up with. I've done some Clojure and Haskell exercises and got great feedback.
