Can you give me something interesting or useful to work on?


hi

I'm desperate to do something interesting or useful

it shouldn't be too easy because you can google it

it shouldn't take too long because I easily get bored

if I need to

I can read any documentation or paper

I can debug or program in any programming language

I can learn inkscape or krita or blender or godot or Unity

any idea is welcome

thanks

I recently started learning threejs through Bruno Simon excellent online course and had a great time, the course is great, easy to follow, and well structured and at least for me the immediate feedback loop of writing a few lines of JS and seeing something happen in the screen is very rewarding and a change from what I do for a living

I also recommended it to a friend in a similar situation to yours and he liked it too

For context, my background is around system administration, and had spent the last years writing k8s YAML for a living :P

Just in case, I'm not affiliated with Bruno in any way, just a happy student!

Depends on your definition of interesting. Is this 'interesting' as in intellectually stimulating and maybe even makes me a better person? Or as in 'interesting' because it solves a useful problem for the world but maybe a bit boring to actually work on?

A co-op flight sim for short sessions like Ace Combat Infinity. Even if you get bored halfway, playing with game engines are fun and interesting (at least I think so).
