Thanks! For me #1 is really important too. I think just trying, especially with software, is so important. The language is one I'm thinking about - some of my students are self-studying AP CS which is centered on Java, but that languag

Thank you! Yes, I think tangible projects are a really strong approach - I'm trying to figure out a suite of realistic projects, so students can choose the one they most respond to.

At first I smirked when I read your American bit... but then I wondered... what if those were design choices? For example, what if someone figured out the average sit-time of gasoline in the jerrycan, the average fault rate and leak rate of

Daniel, When I email jointheteam@stileeducation.com, my gmail times out. Do you know why that might be? My gmail sends to other addresses. (ps. Sorry if I've emailed like five times, haha - at least on my end it's timing out.)

Nice! I'm looking forward to going through some more of them.

Wow, thanks! Maybe I should just put some of this stuff on a resume and send it out - see what it turns up. Congratulations on your success!

Got it! Just bookmarked Codewars, and thank you for the suggestion! > My company is having a hell of a time finding junior level people who actually know how to solve even the simplest of coding challenges. If there's any small thin

Of course I'd love that FAANG salary, but I guess the only way I'll know if I'm good at algos is to give them a shot. I think I'm smart - but, hell, almost everybody on this site blows me away with how smart they are. Ho

Got it! What's that old quote? "Half the work is showing up" or something like that. You just did what they asked and - boom - got the job. Well done! I'm tucking that one away under "life insights". Thank you

Wow, these resources are great! Thank you so much. I have these bookmarked - I want to finish some other projects and then lay out a plan that will hopefully be best; of course, "no plan ever survives first contact" but it's

What an encouraging comment - and thank you so much for looking at that RLC repo! It's riddled with mistakes, to be honest. I took it on as a learning project, speaking of which... > Instead I kept practicing and studying until I wa

Thanks! The idea of one website to best showcase all of one's web programming skills seems like a useful puzzle - I'm going to mull over how I might do that. Thank you again!

Thank you for being so specific! Numbers and time-frames are really helpful for me - even if I wiggle them, or miss them, they are bench-marks in my mind. For example, I would have no idea how much leetcode to practice; but you've give

Hey, thank you so much! I like that backend path you laid out. And I think you're right that I need to read code other people have written - mostly I've approached building stuff for fun, figuring it out as I go, instead of really

Thanks! I'm slightly busy today (reading papers) but I skimmed your link and bookmarked it. Useful! I'll definitely get back to it for a more thorough read. Thank you again.

I've found this for myself, too, seemingly. And it helps to have "work" that is hard but enjoyable. Then when you're working hard, you're looking forward to rest; and when you're resting, you're looking fo
