Those time estimates look way too optimistic.
Or I am just the type that would mess up an equation and spend the next 3 hours trying to figure out why something is rendered upside down or worse, with just subtly incorrect lighting and colors.
Anything math-y that doesn't fail loudly requires a different type of debugging skill that the typical programmer doesn't have.
- rationalfaith 6y agoYes, me too. Although I'd hypothesize you would like to explore tangential parts of the lessons rather than heads down follow without mental digestion.
- krisgee 6y agoI mean 5 hours is pretty much a days work realistically so if you look at it that way it seems pretty reasonable to me. Project 1 is basically a "you'll take a day to do this" project 3 is basically a week's work, etc. If it comes with some instructions and hints it would line up with my estimates pretty closely, that said I've done a bit of this sort of work before so I might have less unknown unknowns in my estimate.
