Ask HN: What Are You Learning?
I read Understanding the 4 Rules of Simple Design by Corey Haines yesterday evening.
It's a short book, so you can get through it in one sitting. The advice is mostly about OOP design, and how to shuffle things around and invent arbitrary constraints in order to make the code more testable. I found the advice fairly… underwhelming.
I decided to implement Conway's Game of Life myself (though not with OOP) as the author asserted the advice transcends implementation languages and paradigms.
My implementation isn't amazing either, but I'm not convinced by the advice in the book.
Here's my implementation.

Ask HN: What Are You Learning?
Finnish, mostly. I moved to Finland a few years ago and have been making slow but consistent progress along the vectors I care about ever since. I just wish language learning didn't take so much time.
I've built some little tools for the task, which ended up teaching me enough about modern development that I could enter back into software as a career without too much hassle. There were no good Anki frequency list decks, so I made https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1331009943 and later https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1149950470 .
These in turn led me to devour a book on the inner workings of SQLite and web dev, because I needed some way to scrape Tatoeba without losing my data every time. Eventually I got good enough to start reading the 'clear Finnish's news, but then I realized YLE.fi didn't seem to have an easy way for me to scrape all previous news articles, so I built https://hiandrewquinn.github.io/selkouutiset-archive/ as an excuse to get a little deeper into Hugo and also learn some stuff about Git modules, systemd timers, doing things on a Raspberry Pi, doing things in GCP...
... And finally today I made the first lurching version prototype of a flashcard generator for that news archive, at https://github.com/Selkouutiset-Archive/selkokortti . I guess I just keep stringing the tools and interests I have together to make bigger and bigger things. Maybe that's all a career/vocation really is at the end of the day.
I've also been learning a lot about QEMU and virtualization. That's mostly for work. I make software that runs on trains.
