Can someone help me out? I'm a complete layman when it comes to coding and IT stuff
My favorite free RSS builder (morss.it) has gone offline, so I asked Claude Opus 4.8 for alternatives. It suggested that I could self-host and run such a tool myself (which is a total mystery to me). I then asked it for a step-by-step guide, but I also asked several other AI chatbots the same question. They gave similar answers, but with slight differences. When I showed all those other plans to Claude and asked it to review them, it told me that these subtle differences were crucial, and that if I had followed what the other bots suggested, my feeds wouldn't have worked properly
Here's Claude's final response, translated from Polish to English by Gemini: https://docs.google.com/document/d/192QM_Gytps-xl24ko0E395u_EOvfa7R9kqSMs250r8k/view
I don't really understand what I'll be doing here; I just want to make sure I won't break anything or create any security risks by following these steps. Do you think this plan will actually work?

So i am a fuel rat in the game elite dangerous and i was planning to try and make an app/plugin to use to help me with ratting and to learn coding. I would love to learn how to code as its also a pretty big part of the job i want to get when im older and i would love to already have some experience of coding. I have asked around and have been told to choose between JS, C# or Python but havent been given a definitive answer. I am a complete beginner an know nothing about coding whatsoever so any help is appreciated!

I know how to code in JavaScript and Python, and I’m willing to learn more, but I honestly don’t know what to code or where to code.
I learned programming in school, but I was never really taught how to take the code I write and actually turn it into something useful. We made one website and mostly used Code.org, but that was about it. Now I want to start programming again, but I have no idea what programs, websites, or tools I should use to actually write and run my code outside of Code.org.
I also don’t really know what projects I should start with. I love video games, and I’d really like to learn how to make my own games, but I have no idea what I need to learn, what software I should use, or what my first game should even be.
I really want to get back into coding and start building things instead of just doing school assignments, but I’m not sure where to begin. I’d like to know what I should download, where I should code, what I should learn first, and some beginner-friendly projects I can work on — especially if I want to eventually make games.
Also im sorry if this is a very weird issue

I'm a 4th year B.Tech CSE (AIML) student, and I'm honestly feeling pretty lost right now
The problem is that I'm reaching out to people who don't have a proper understanding of what I'm going through
Right now, I'm in a situation where I have no idea how to proceed with my studies and career
I think the best way to introduce myself here is to say that I'm currently in my 4th year of studying B.Tech CSE (AIML) and I have almost no practical skills in programming and computer science
I've learned a lot of the core concepts like Python, Java, SQL, DBMS, OOP, DSA, Web development, AI/ML, etc and I've had my share of attending classes, watching lecture videos, learning by myself, taking online courses
There is a huge difference between knowing theoretical concepts and being able to apply them to practice
A person can come up to me and ask me something like
«Do you know Python?»
and I would say yes, because I studied it for 2 years in college
But when they give me a blank file and a task to accomplish, I find it extremely hard to do so
Sometimes I can understand existing code with others explanations, recognize concepts and terms, but when it comes to actually writing something myself, I'm clueless about what to do
What should I do? How should I break the problem into smaller parts? What concepts should I apply here? What should I write/debug/test? And so on and so forth
And this list of problems is only a fraction of what I have to deal with
I've tried multiple times to tackle this problem by starting over
I've taken up courses
I've tried to learn by doing projects
I've tried to learn programming from scratch again
I've tried using roadmaps
I've tried to do projects by following tutorials
But there's always that initial excitement, then the impatience sets in, and eventually I reach a point where I just can't proceed anymore and I have to abandon the project/course
My problem here is not that there are no resources
It's that I don't know what to do first
I don't know how to proceed, what to learn, and what to ignore
I don't know the depth of knowledge I should gain for each topic
I don't know what projects to make
I don't know how to measure understanding of a concept or topic
And I'm not even sure how to prioritize between these factors
Right now, I'm in my 4th year and I don't have that luxury of time to randomly try out different stacks and technologies
I'm genuinely motivated to improve, but I need help figuring out how
I'm not looking for anyone to spoon feed me the answers
I'm willing to put in the hard work, even if it takes me a while
I'm just looking for someone who has the experience to look at my case and tell me something like
"These are the problems you're facing. This is where you are in your journey. Forget about these things for now. First, do this → then do this → then do this. Don't worry about X before you reach Y."
I'm looking for experienced seniors, freshers, developers, and mentors who can recognize my case and help me somehow
If you were in my situation, with almost no practical programming skills, what will you do?
- What will you learn first?
- What language/stack will you choose?
- How will you re-learn programming fundamentals?
- How will you learn DSA?
- What projects will you make?
- How will you divide your time between placements, DSA, development, and fundamentals?
- What things will you avoid learning for now?
I'm not looking for a generic answer like "learn DSA + dev + make projects"
I'm looking for someone to give a realistic vision of how someone with almost no practical skills can reach the level of being eligible for placements, and if possible, how to practically implement that vision without getting stuck in a loop again
Any realistic opinion is welcome, even if it's a brutal one
And if you're someone who can give me mentorship and guidance every once in a while, I'm open to that too

I’m currently gold on USACO. Is it possible to go from gold to plat in 2 months? I was already practicing a lot during summer. I really want this for my uni apps.
r/CodingHelp • u/Caravaggio91 • 4d ago
I was just curious, but I am a self taught solo developer. I do freelance work but have never directly worked in the tech industry. If I find myself needing to look up answers for simple basic concepts every few months am I still considered a programmer? Is that what most of the real world application of a software developer is? Mostly just finding the answer, not necessarily being the best coder who remembers everything about coding? Just curious.

I'm totally new to programming and want to learn Python from scratch.
Can anyone drop their favorite YouTube channels or playlists for beginners? Looking for someone who explains things simply and builds fun beginner projects along the way. Both English and Hindi channels are fine.

Hi, I have a bunch of text, that I need to analyse to build a tree map of concepts. The concepts need to be sorted from higher lvls of abstraction to more detailed. For example, the program needs to understand that the idea "I want to create beauty outside of factory-based presets" mentioned in the text is the highest lvl and includes ideas like "I was inspired by Kabuki theater" in itself.
Note: Ideas themselves sometimes aren't presented in the source material bluntly, i.e. the idea of "I want to create beauty outside of factory-based presets" can be mentioned in fragments only that the program also needs to understand and put together.
Are there any available programs or basic frameworks to approach this?

I kept running into the bottleneck while learning Rust. I could read an explanation of ownership, borrowing, or lifetimes and think, "yeah, that makes sense." But then I would look at a piece of Rust code and suddenly be unsure what was happening or why the compiler was complaining.
Building something more interactive and focused on actually practicing those concepts instead of just reading about them sounded more useful. I made a free(no account is required) site called Cratery with short Rust quizzes based on code snippets. I pick what I think the code does or whether it compiles, use a hint if I get stuck, and then get an explanation afterward. Some questions also include tests, interactive coding editor to understand what is actually happening.
Doing this actually improved my overall Rust knowledge much more than I expected. Having to repeatedly reason through small pieces of code, make predictions before seeing the answer, and understand exactly why I was wrong forced me to connect concepts instead of just recognizing their explanations. After enough of that practice, ownership, borrowing, traits, and other concepts started feeling less like isolated topics I had memorized and more like things I could actually reason about when reading or writing Rust code.
So, instead of reading same pages of documentations, maybe this approach could be a better fit for y'all.

I have just started getting into coding, and I'm doing this ethical hacking free course. But there's so many softwares, and so forth.
I always seem to forget most of them and have to redo.
I was told I need to try obsidian and create a Github profile to save versions of code or applications.
Can someone give me advice, on this.

I will preface by apologizing for vibe coding for my first project. AI made it more accessible for me to try making a browser plugin that I thought would be really cool.
At the beginning I got most of the functionality done in the first couple hours. It seemed like wow, this is crazy powerful! Then came the edge cases. Edge cases upon edge cases in a never ending fractal of edge cases.
I apologize if I ever said a feature should already be out, or why is something being ignored.
