No MMU. That's the only thing I didn't like about developing on mine. Every wild pointer meant you had to reboot. Kinda lengthened the edit-compile-test cycle
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Absolutely. And utterly hilarious when one day the local cable company was broadcasting a GURU meditation number for a few hours Made me wonder what the non-initiates thought was going on.

Write something that interests you. Games, graphics, sound. Whatever it is that holds you interested.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

If that's true, maybe you should hang up your keyboard.
On the other hand, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey.

Decide on a project that interests you, even if there isn't necessarily a 'need' for it by others.
Two projects I plan to complete are:
First, a .NET based clone of a game I wrote back in high school on a Commodore PET - the game was, by nature of the platform, keyboard based. Now, I have other input options - mouse based with button to click instead of keyboard commands; better graphic options, possibly even sound (but, considering me, I doubt it)
Second: a platform to track dependencies - forward and backwards from a starting point; that means I need to have an input mechanism, a search mechanism and a reporting mechanism. I've toyed with the idea of having a graphical representation of the output and being able to limit (or not) the number of predecessor and successors to an item.

Well, according to the story line in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, he will need to harvest some Kyber Crystals if he is going to do lightsaber work. Don't know if we have any on this planet.

That's hardware. Leave that for the mechanical engineers to screw up.
The software's worth making a start on now, though.

Pick one:
ByteStruck[^]
Beta is 90% complete, just need to finish the matching algorithms.
FlowSharp[^] and FlowSharpCode[^]
I'm doing some really cool things with FlowSharpCode (which is now actually merged into FlowSharp) and of course there's a large TODO list (see Issues section) in FlowSharp itself.
Projourn (sorry, no public link), a project journaling web app (much like a blog, but also different.) Some initial work has been done, including REST services and a WinForm client to play around with prototyping.

Wow, that ByteStuck site looks like the type of site I was looking for a few days ago

Exactly. Hence the reason for creating it.

Is this your site?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

My own web server (no IIS dependencies, nor is it ASP.NET / Razor.) I haven't written about the web server back end much, but the code is open source[^]. ByteStruck itself is not open source.
Also, SQL Server Express, hosted on an Amazon EC2. Core web "frameworks" are jQuery (of course), jqWidgets, and Knockout.

OK. Looks promising.

Indeed - missing implementation.  I actually usually don't have the server running, I fired it up actually when I wrote my original reply, haha.

Collaborate on a project. Code to www.codeplex.com and find a project that interests you and get involved.

Well, Windows has already been done, but I don't think you'd have any problem doing it better.

Um, er, why haven't you touched code in 6 months? Reason why I ask is because you mention this fact in the same paragraph as the word "employers". I would not hire you if you haven't touched code in 6 months without a very, very good reason.
Just curious.

Haha, I guess it doesn't matter I wouldn't get hired anyway  . I'm an 18 year old kid straight out of high school with little experience living in one of the worst states for the industry.
I haven't touched code in 6 months because after graduating, I had no more projects to work on.
