  1. I have dabbled in game development but the hardest thing to begin with is to think of a good game idea. Then there is graphics and sound resources to design (difficult for me) and coding (probably the easiest part). Probably have to customize the game design around your skill set unless you have a team. Just my thoughts.

  2. I've been in software development for 20 years and I wouldn't regret University in spite of the time and money. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life and while I learned a lot of software engineering and coding stuff (which was the main goal), I wouldn't say the rest was irrelevant. University can provide a broader and more well rounded learning experience. Life is more than just coding. My favorite is C++ because my main interest hobby-wise and professionally is in high performance applications and I have zero interest in web stuff.

  3. I feel the same way. So far I've not found any tutorials that cover even the basic concepts well enough. It's driving me crazy. It's definitely not intuitive. No one ever fully explains what a container is.

  4. But this stuff requires genius level IQ and I don't have it :) and this is only the beginner stuff? The complexity is driving me insane.

  5. It's in the description. It's a prerequisite for running docker on Linux, right? And most beginners don't know Linux.

  6. Great questions but as expected, no answers. Par for the course on this subject. No useful information anywhere. It's super frustrating. Yeah, these are the kind if questions that are burning my brain cells right now.

  7. It's not a windows cmd command.

  8. I prefer SVN over Git by a mile. Git wastes way too much of my time by having to mess around with a bunch of extra unnecessary branches which I have to keep track of. I have dozens of such copies of source code hanging around for all of these damn branches. When to keep them or delete them? I don't know, so they accumulate. It's a nightmare.

  9. Your choice.

  10. So "master" is the same as "trunk"? Wish I knew that 3 years ago. Git terminology sucks.

  11. Well, I'm an absolute beginner looker for docker help and I also know absolutely nothing about Linux. I'm probably a pretty typical case?

  12.  @AGriffith  GIT is extremely unintuitive. Coming from 20 years of experience with CVS and SVN... GIT is a nightmare, especially when using archaic commands instead of a GUI.

  13. Is there a way to covert some basic typescript to python? Typescript syntax is awful and it won't run it in Visual Studio Code.

  14. I don't believe "ls" is a windows dos command. Its a Linux thing. You could try windows power shell. Or... "ls" is equivalent to "dir" in Windows cmd window, so try dir to list files and directories.

  15. No. I started at 17 back in 1977 and still going!

  16. CVS and SVN made sense. GIT doesn't. I don't get it conceptually. Plus, having to use command line is going backward in my opinion. Been using SVN for 15 years and never needed the command line. That said, nice tutorial.

  17. Yeah, good luck finding one.

  18. I'm wary about paying money for any more courses. Most were a dissapointment.

  19. I can also do anything in visual studio (been using it for 25 years). And yes, visual code is horrible.
