Hi! I’ve been working on a game called Wild Willows, a cozy nature restoration game where you repair damaged habitats and bring wildlife back.

You start with an empty meadow and gradually restore it by planting things, changing the landscape, crafting habitat objects, and figuring out what different animals need before they’ll return. There are no timers or fail states, so it’s mostly about exploring, building, collecting, and watching the area slowly come back to life.

I originally built it as a desktop game, but I recently got the browser version running at wildwillows.app so people can jump in without downloading or paying for anything.

I’ve been doing a bunch of performance work on the web version this week too, so I’d especially love to hear how it runs on different browsers/computers and in different parts of the world.

It’s still very much an indie project I’m actively working on, so feedback is super welcome. Hope you enjoy it!

I’ve been experimenting with bringing the ZX-Spectrum programming experience into a modern browser.

CodeSpeccy is a small playground for writing and running BASIC-style programs with that classic Spectrum feel.

Early draft ... feedback welcome!

I'm a fresher btech cse. Suggest me what topics i should study and how chill i should? And like timeline also that i should i study this for this many days🙏🙏🙏🐥🐥

Researchers at Utah State University's School of Computing are conducting a study on how software professionals evaluate programming activities performed with AI assistance compared with programming activities performed without AI assistance.

Software professionals are invited to complete a short online calibration survey. Participants will rate programming activities according to how representative they are of:

• Programming performed with AI assistance
• Programming performed without AI assistance

The survey takes approximately 10 minutes.

Participation is entirely voluntary. You may discontinue participation at any time before submitting your responses without penalty or consequence. Your decision to participate or not participate will have no effect on your grades, employment, or academic standing.

Survey and informed consent form: https://usu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_d70iHlfHokKVzx4 

This study has been reviewed and approved by the Utah State University Institutional Review Board: IRB #16067.

Questions about the study: Dr. John Edwards, Principal Investigator — john.edwards@usu.edu Rubash Mali, Student Researcher — rubash.mali@usu.edu

Thank you for considering participating.

Hi everyone!

I’m a math teacher currently learning n8n and exploring how AI and automation could be useful in teaching and education.

I’m wondering if there are any other math teachers here who are already using n8n or are currently learning it.

I’d love to connect, exchange ideas, and possibly work together on small projects related to math education.

If you’re interested, feel free to comment or send me a DM. 🙂

Hey bros I will be going to college with CSE branch in 2-3 weeks and i joined a community/group and i get to know that most of the group members knows some of languages like c, html, python and i never studied these languages and i don't know anything about them , does it affect to me in college

Hello everyone, in a few weeks I will be starting as a 9th grader in an AP computer science class. Are there any pointers I should know of what I should freshen up on? I like computers and I feel I have a decent understanding of them but any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've taught AP CS Principles for 2 years now, and taught AP CS A last year, but I've moved to a new school and now have 4 sections of CSP and 2 sections of the new Cybersecurity. I have a background in IT, so I'm familiar with the content that would be covered in the CompTIA A+ and Net+, but I never got around to studying for Sec+. From what I can tell, they walked back the standards so it's only like, 50% of Sec+ at this point, but classes start Tuesday and I only found out 3 days ago I was definitely teaching this (was originally slotted for Algebra, math certified, but the CS teacher decided to retire last minute).

I'm waiting to get access to cyber.org material. I've used codehs for CSP and CSA and found their curriculum to be... fine I guess. Just looking for anything else to use for resources, guidelines, reasonable scope and sequence, etc. Looking over this I can't believe they don't require networking first. I hope there's time built in to explain the basics of that too.

I'm tempted to just use Prof. Messer as a baseline and just lean in to full prepping them for the Sec+, but with this being a new class I don't know if that's reasonable. Anyway, any insight would be great.

Hello everyone. So, I am an assistant at a university and this year we plan to open a new lecture about the fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence. We plan to make an interactive lecture, like students will prepare their projects and such. The scope of this lecture will be from the early ages of AI starting from perceptron, to image recognition and classification algorithms, to the latest LLMs and such. Students that will take this class are from 2nd grade of Bachelor’s degree. What projects can we give to them? Consider that their computers might not be the best, so it should not be heavily dependent on real time computational power. 

Also, I’m thinking about a lecture on “how to use AI properly”. Like, it blows my mind how terrible some students use AI to write code. Antigravity is free for them, and surely they will be using some kind of AI tool to write code either way. I’m using Claude Code for like a year now, and spending at least one hour to write the first prompt to start working everyday. Yet, students usually give the exact text of the homework as prompt. What would you people recommend me to check out and refer to students as tutorials on how to use AI tools for beginners? 

I learned programming before AI and thought myself how to use AI. The tutorials I watched on Claude Code and stuff were basically tips and tricks for me. So I’m not sure how I can teach what I do to students without making it look like witchcraft, which it isn’t really. 

For AI homeworks, My first idea was to use the VRX simulation environment and the Perception task of it. Which basically sets a clear roadline to collect dataset, label them, train the model and such. Any other homework ideas related to AI is much appreciated.
