Hello, thanks for having us Ben.
Hello
HELLO!
Hello!!
Hello! :)
Thanks for offering some wonderful advice. It's really appreciated from a new programmer's perspective!
Hi all,
I'm a web developer on the Northern California coast. I've been employed in this field for a little over a year now, but have been studying programming and doing freelance work off-and-on for about 13 years. I prefer working on the back-end, but do front-end work as well. My latest challenges are learning how to build custom Shopify stores and writing Shell scripts to keep all of our sites backed-up and up-to-date.
I love to travel, and am going to try out being a digital nomad for a month, while traveling solo through 9 countries in SE and NE Asia. I leave mid-March!
I've been on this site for a few weeks now, and have learned a lot from the articles. I especially appreciate the "career" articles, as they have helped me think through my own career, where I want to be, and how to get there.
Sounds interesting. Have a good trip!
Hi everyone! I'm Tanya and a full-stack .NET developer based in Atlanta, GA.
A fellow .NET-er. Hi!
Hi Tanya!
Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie in the world of programming (JavaScript mainly). I joined the network for I want to surround my self with people who are passionate about programming and their craft.
Thank you!
Welcome to the world of programming.
Hey there! I have too started with JavaScript and am making currently making a small game. Let me know if you would like to check it out
Hello there!
I am Vinay, a Linux Sysadmin with a strong interest in the DevOps mindset (atleast I believe it's a mindset than a role) who's eager to learn from each and everyone of you here, while giving back to the community and therefore I started following this awesome site {now 1 of my permanent bookmarks ;-)}
Looking forward to imbibe as much knowledge and share it as much I can.
PS: When I'm not dabbling with technology, I'm also an avid artist and you can check out my work here [bit.ly/2D1ZPgL]. Any sort of feedback on that will be much appreciated.
1 more PS: For any fellow artists here, please reach out to me to know more on how I've deployed the above, in case you wish to host your own.
3 cheers to the Dev.to community! :)

Did you know that white animal thing is called a moomin?? I sure didn't.
Mumin for friends.
An Angular4 developer here. I've been coding in my spare time in Perl for many years. Glad to be here.
Hey there, I’ve been learning angular4 recently, I like the cli!
Hi Joshua. It's very nice the Angular team came up with the command line utility. I personally always try to do the things the hard way - in order to get a better sense what's happening underneath - and this includes avoiding the cli for a long time. But for any practical reason stick to it.

Hello World!!
Good to see everyone out here holding it down; looking forward to being a part of it.
I'm obsessed with coding a Starcraft 2 AI at the moment. It can't even beat the in-game AI yet, but maybe I can blame that on a lack of training time...
Will you consider writing an article about your Starcraft 2 AI? I am sooo curious. (Or just send me to some additional resources?) I used to play all the time and was reasonably competitive (Diamond League).
Does your AI have APM limitations? Otherwise, I know things can get crazy.
Does it play a specific race?
Does it use a general strategy? Or will it sometimes rush, focus on macro, drops, etc?
Just super curious 😇
cc @maestromac who might find this interesting, as well!
Awesome! I've only just got my feet on the ground, here, and I've been following this guy Steven Brown's guides on Medium: chatbotslife.com/building-a-basic-...
His guides work beautifully one after another to get you started on first making a bot that can do ANYthing at all, then working up to adding reinforcement learning and saved training data, etc. Highly recommended for a great weekend project (especially since SC2 is free now!)
The AI I'm working on right now is solely Protoss, and has no limit on APM, because I'm trying to see how strong I can get it at the moment. I have a coworker who's also gotten into it at the same time as me and we battle our AIs against one another, so APM isn't an issue. As of my current level, it rushes the hell out of opponents every game, but once I tackle the challenge of ai-friendly minor unit control and placement the AI might be able to teach itself how to macro better.
That's really the most interesting thing about this entire experiment is that you really don't determine what specific STRATEGY the AI picks so much as give it a realm of options and a reward algorithm and then turn it loose for a while.
And I'd love to post here but it's a little intimidating, especially considering that I'm a total novice when it comes to AI. Maybe I could post about how easy it is to get started!
This is really fascinating. The idea of training your own AI to battle your opponent's version is really fun and interesting. For maps with only one spawn location, I would think a super-early proxy gateway strategy to train pairs of Zealots would be pretty deadly, especially with perfectly-managed usage of the chrono boost. For your coworker's AI to account for that threat, it might have to devote more resources for early defense and/or scouting.
I'll check out the article you linked, could be a fun weekend project (and justifiable escape back to SC2) once I get some free time.
A "how to get started" post would be great if you feel up to it; but of course, no pressure. I'm just sure a lot of us would be interested ! :)
Hi! Stumbled here, looking for a editor comparison: Visual Studio Code vs Atom. So here I am, and always happy to join new dev communities.
Hello all! I'm a PHP developer from Tennessee. I'm excited to be a part of this amazing community.
Hi everyone! I am an actress-turned-coder. I manage the student experience at a university coding bootcamp, after functioning for 5 months post-graduation as a tutor and TA in fullstack web development. My passion is for vanilla Javascript and React, but I'm looking to get better at functional programming and Redux. It's been a wild ride since I started learning a year ago.
Self-taught web developer working my way into a development position in my current company. I found HTML/CSS easy to understand, but have been working on becoming more confident with my Javascript skills.
I live in Arizona but I am originally from London, England. Die-hard Man United fan.
@jissac87 We need to cross paths. I live in Phoenix, Arizona and I'm a junior full stack software developer/engineer. I'm willing to assist you in any way and help facilitate your growth/depth of understanding in Javascript of needed. Please let me know if I can be of assistance to you. Take care!
