[Zine][mini-project] Programming Booklets


 I watched this video yesterday;

 

(link) 

 and it stirred in me the desire to make programming booklets which could contain :

  • CheatSheets
  • Mini-projects
  • Something else ? 

Purchases :

  • Acquire a cheap monochrome laser printer with a cheap toner/refill (hopefully i can find a second hand Brother or a pro-grade HP
  • Colored paper : Red, Green and Yellow (orange?) 

To-do :

Do a test run. Find the software as well as the material necessary to produce a Zine-like booklet containing a programming project (text editor ? or small game ? Chip-8 platform independent ?)  with a quick Cheat-sheet for C or Python or whatever ...

Find some cool graphics to add (similar to this : engraving style ?? learn how to make them in photoshop or extract them from public domain books) :


I probably should read some Zines as part of my research !

Game-ideas from Youtube : part 1

I just watched this video, about a tiny leaf collecting game :  link And i really want to clone/implement a similar design as an exercise for learning godot/blender with the following improvements :  Add a tiny achievement or goal or quest system  : ex: collect X type of leaf ..etc full inventory of common, full inventory of rare ..  [either U.I button or mouse action] Option to kick the tree once in a while which will make a bigger drop (a spinner will show how much time you have left until the next kick)   [UI button] Option for fast forward time skip ">> x3" or something for short burst of faster game loop to not wait for eternity (and also for debug purposes)  Make the leafs behind the tree glow-y and the  tree a bit transparent (?) like a cs-wall-hack effect.

[Youtube/Ublock][WIP] List of undesirable channels

We all know that youtube search has been steadily going downhill, down the toilet, down the drains ... with no end in sight. Shorts being recommended aggressively, the filter options not being respected and the cherry on-top is the irrelevant suggestions from previous totally unrelated stuff popping in the middle of the search page. The list of problems is too long for me to remember in one go .. the honest solution would be to just reduce or stop my youtube usage (the irony of writing that on a blogospot isn't lost on me). So i will try to maintain a list of ublock origin filters to : Disable shorts aggressively (a hard thing to do for someone with fomo) Disable either promoted or 'viral' channels that keep popping up in irrelevant searches : LinusTechTips and his myriad other channels The dude which just reads stackoverflow answers in his videos with an intro/outro added and a video of him hiking (i lost his ID but i will find you fucker !)  Idian/Spanish tech/programming...
