Do you want to build an interactive shell or a cli tool? For a custom shell I have used https://github.com/chzyer/readline before, but I did not work on it a lot. I also wanted custom completions based on context and t

I mostly use duolingo and lingodeer together. I've found that just working on it twenty minutes a day keeps it interesting.

https://github.com/abhijat/matchboxdb I'm trying to build a database system from scratch (without using third party libraries) in modern C++ (I do use googletest for unit tests). I've mostly been stumbling ar

Yes I think it was called "Gates Of Fire". There is another book of his called "The Afghan Campaign" that I liked. It is about a greek soldier passing through Afghanistan for Alexander's campaign to reach India.

Yes, I want to remove quora from my results. I vaguely remember you could block websites forever in google a long time ago, but I may be misremembering it.

I am writing a basic database from scratch in C++, trying not to use any third party dependencies. I followed bits of the cmu videos to get started. It's not something I knew about before starting but it's a lot of fun and I got t

Somewhat related to your experience, does anyone else feel that the present interviewing scene is a lot more focused on algorithms rather than data structures? Many leetcode questions rely on very specific tricks like using a fast and a slo

I think pushshift is what powers all the reddit undelete websites, because it doesn't register post or comment deletes. So for a true, unrecoverable delete you have to edit your post to empty body or something nonsensical, and then del

I have been working on a database engine in C++ by following along with the CMU lectures on youtube recently. It is quite fun and I am getting to learn a lot although I am just tinkering with the storage layer right now.

For a very basic intro, "A common sense guide to data structures and algorithms" and "Grokking algorithms" are a couple of good books.

There's the c++ crash course book from nostarch. It's very comprehensive and teaches modern c++ nicely. For video courses Kate Gregory has some well received courses on modern c++ on pluralsight.
