Topic: Conway’s Game of Life Challenge
- Keeping up with tech
- is important
- or tech will leave you
- Programming is hard: Copy all the elements of an array
- for (m=0; m < len; m++) {
- for (n=0; n < len; ++n) {
- will it work?
- no.
- BOO!
- This was an example problem and fragment of one person’s solution
- This was a rough conversation.
- Sometimes it takes a bit for things to click, sometimes they don’t
- These conversations should be handled gracefully with an eye towards everyone’s future.
- Some people are more wired for programming
- Missed a lot of stuff about containers and networking and latency
- And I was driving Sam so I missed taking notes
- But it was good stuff
- Bruce was talking about Native Spring
- Sounds pretty cool, lots of potential
- Make sure you have tests it sounds like there is some tree shaking going on during the running of the tests and if you don’t use a class in a test it might not notice that you need things compiled in to work.
- Talked about the intersection of computerized processes and how they interact with the real world.
- Do you know what the price is. Really?
- Introduced the “Conway’s Game of Life” challenge
- Do an implementation
- Bring something to talk about related to the implementation next week
- Or if you won’t be attending, then send your implementation and we will talk about it, just let us know if we should be nice or rip it to shreds.
