And on a more nerdy note, if you're learning programming or want to sharpen your skills, I highly recommend Exercism (https://exercism.io).
It's completely free and has tracks for lots of languages. It even lets you solve exercises in your own editor using their CLI, which I love.
I've been using it for Python the past few weeks, and I've learned more about how to actually think through problems than I did with more guided platforms. It focuses on solving real challenges instead of just walking you through syntax.
If you like structured practice and leveling up your thinking, it's worth checking out.

@gabz Last edition of Rust is 2024 and it's advisable to write new projects in latest edition. Then 2018 is year I started getting interested in Rust... and that was previous era for me.

I recommend seasoned programmers who want to learn #Rust to take training... or use #CodeWars or #Exercism to just train on assignments, not dry book knowledge.

The Elixir track on Exercism has a new practice exercise, Camicia. Thanks to Francesco Sangalli who not only implemented it in Elixir, but also designed it 🥳

#Exercism just launched GitHub syncing of your solutions! And the settings you can tweak as an insiders sponsor are also really nice. It got me to bump my sponsorship up from $5 to $10/month to qualify as an insider.

"AI" hurts developers.

In their learning on sites like #exercism, where mentors struggle to undo the damages of ChatGPTs "help", while working through ludicrous PRs, through the enshittification of their jobs and by wasting enormous amounts of energy, thus putting oil on the flames of climate change that will turn us into an endangered species at some point.

And only the "artificial" part is real. All those trained models have as much actual intelligence as Eliza had in the seventies.

In a month's time I will be visiting the #wasmio in #barcelona (as a participant) and I am pretty excited as I haven't visited either, yet.

I stumbled upon #WebAssembly in 2023 (okey, I've heard of it even earlier, but used it onyl in 2023 during the #12in23 by #exercism ), and in 2024 we've been experimenting with it in the context of #GreenIT at our company (i.e. having tiny Wasm Modules spinned up directly in clusters, instead of heavy weight #docker containers). We haven't had the chance to use it in production yet, and so I am really looking forward to see how other people use it and connect with the community.

Anyone here joining the conference as well? Any sessions or speakers or other highlights you're looking forward to? And any hidden gems to visit in Barcelona (as I'll be staying for days longer, after the conference 😇 )?

You can now use Elixir 1.18 on #Exercism 🚀. Thanks to jiegillet who did the upgrade of our tooling, and the Elixir core team that was very fast to release 1.18.1 with a crucial bug fix #MyElixirStatus

I am extremely behind on my #Exercism practice but I'm overjoyed to hear that they've added a #Uiua track

https://exercism.org/tracks/uiua

and a #Roc track

https://exercism.org/tracks/roc

I've joined both, which should gradually appear in my tracker of which problems I've solved in which languages https://github.com/jonocarroll/exercism-solutions

DEAL ALERT! Do you want to learn to #code?

#Exercism, my favorite #programming language learning tool, is running a part-time boot camp in January!

It'll teach you everything from scratch, so no experience is needed. Makes a great gift for someone who has been interested in programming, but had trouble getting started.

Thanks to a very cool video from @standupmaths popping up on my feed I updated my #rstats #Exercism solution for the Sieve of Eratosthenes problem to essentially use

isprime <- function(n) {
!length(grep(r"(^.?$|^(..+?)\1+$)", strrep('!', n)))

Set up a recurring donation. I’ve only scratched the surface of #Exercism so far but I really liked what I saw and it's one of the first places I think of when I want to learn a new language now.

Después de leer la lamentable situación de Exercism, no he podido evitar realizar una merecida donación.
A pesar de tener 2 millones de usuarios, los autores han llegado a una situación económica insostenible. Literalmente no tienen dinero en el banco para mantener los servidores encendidos, y mucho menos para pagar sus sueldos. En el artículo Jeremy Walker, cofundador, declara que ha perdido completamente la fe en un modelo de negocio gratuito sostenido por donaciones.
El feedback ha sido variado. Algunos opinan que deberían cambiar los servidores por plataformas más económicas, otros que no es muy visible el botón de donaciones, algunos que son malos gestores al no encontrar inversores (a pesar que lo han intentado), etc.
Me atrevo a afirmar que el problema radica en sus usuarios que no son capaces de apreciar, y recompensar, la gran labor de Exercism. Una plataforma con unas capacidades similares podría rondar un precio mensual con, tal vez, 2 cifras. Y sin embargo es gratis, abierto, con acceso a varios idiomas y niveles. No deberían pedir dinero, los usuarios deben darlo.

Another small step forward 😅

I really enjoy #crystallang 😍

"Last week we hit the huge milestone of two million users. Within a few hours, we also hit 45 million exercise submissions.

A day later, I paid the final payroll for me, Erik and Aron, and our bank account reduced down to the point we can't afford to pay another.

I think this sums up Exercism's story pretty well. Over 1,200 people per day sign up to #Exercism. Tens of thousands solve exercises each day. But we don't have enough money to continue to work on the platform"

Heartbreaking news from Exercism 💔 https://exercism.org/blog/september-2024-restructure #exercism #OSS

I share this little accomplishment 😅!

It's not much but you have to start somewhere, right?

One of my favorite ways of learning new #programming languages, #Exercism, is considering adding team functionality.

If you're someone who might benefit and pay (or someone would pay on your behalf), definitely chime in with your needs and what you'd like to see!

It is day 28 of #100DaysOfSwift and having a couple of off-days in-between made me forget a lot already. My circular buffer exercism task took me much longer than I hoped.
Started doing some mentoring on #exercism too, on the TS track.

I did #Exercism's #12in23 this year and just published my last #blog post of the year. I talked about my experience with each of these 12 languages:

- #golang
- #elixir
- #julia
- #rust
- #clojure
- #visualbasic
- #swift
- #jq
- #ruby
- #wasm
- #wren
- #lua

It was a fun tour of what's out there today. I had a blast learning and broadening my horizons. Enjoy and see you next year!

https://xavd.id/blog/post/12-languages-in-12-months/

Finished the #WebAssembly exercises for the #12in23 challenge with #exercism.
Still 4 languages to go.
With #Rlang next.

If you want to learn Crystal, the track on excercism is a great resource! Carl takes us behind the scenes of the learning platform.

#CrystalConf #CrystalLang #Exercism

Agenda for the day:

- hang Christmas lights (it's early, but we like them and it's not like we're decorating for thanksgiving)
- more #Exercism #12in23 (writing #WASM by hand, a slow but interesting exercise) ( #programing )
- get close to the end of 13 sentinels ( #videogames )
- watch the #Michigan game ( #GoBlue! )

Fixing to be a great Saturday!

Anyways, went with #Ruby on the #Exercism Object-Oriented October (OOO) #12in23. I'll probably play with the others this month too, but I was specifically feeling a bit of nostalgia for that one.

Today's adventure in learning more programming languages (#exercism #12in23) involved trying to install a recent version of #ruby in Pop_OS which was failing due to some SSL library inconsistency, a workaround for which uninstalled my #RStudio 🤬

I abandoned 2 different install managers before finally getting one working. I have it running now, but not off to a great start.

Doing my prelim reading while I waited... "python, but with full OOP" and "parentheses are *optional*"!?!

I'm doing the #12in23 challenge on #exercism and I have to say it's going pretty well considering it's July... I've officially ticked off 12 languages with at least 5 exercises other than the generic 'hello, world!".

There will be a big blog post to write at the end of the year, but so far the #haskell community solutions are the most interesting/surprising to me - so much to learn about good ways to write things there.

I earned the #AnalyticalApril badge on #exercism using #python :python:

I'm behind on what I hoped to do this month thanks to a bad cold, but I'll also be working through the #rstats :rstats: and #julia :julia: exercises. Python is far from my favourite language, but it's relentlessly common so I really should get better at using it. I've deployed a couple of AWS Lambda functions using it since it's so much better supported.
