salad_vr··on This will save you hours on your CCNA/CCNP
this focuses mainly on CLI and give a sandbox environment that's ready-to-go, guided and overall better for building muscle memory with commands

staring at slideshows and diagrams are cool, but some people learn better by doing, this makes that learning style more accessible to new comers

salad_vr··on I vibecoded a game, its making money, heres what I learned
chances are if you are nontechnical, agents can code better than you. It's probably more worth it to learn about computer science, system architecture rather then syntax.

Perhaps you would you disagree?

Id like to say the same for most "technical" people, most of my CS buddies have never built anything without an authority figure giving them directions (work/school) and seem to get really threatened at the idea that agentic coding will replace them, often coping with arguments about future, nonexistent issues.

Are there issues you foresee me running into?

salad_vr··on ChatGPT crashed my browser when I continued 1k+ conversations
yeah running into same issues, cant pin point exactly why, but i need to close and re open tabs after big exchanges now. doesnt happen on mobile tho.
salad_vr··on Vibecoded my dream game, GeoGuesser for guns, now its helping with student bills
definitely feel its a bit cramped, however I also dont want it to be a scavenger hunt to find buttons and have new users miss out on content, idk what the right balance is. Is there anything specific you think is bloaty?

I attribute most of the early traffic (only 2 weeks in) to the domain (GunGuesser.com)

I have 4 donors, 2 of which were quite generous, allowing the site to break even and leave a small profit which honestly is huge as a broke student.

The game has categories, multiplayer, ranked 1v1, sudden death, and a massive progression system including badges and a battlepass.

I’d love some feedback from you pro hackers on how I can improve. I will read, reply and act on all meaningful comments.

Please share your thoughts!
