For anyone giving jumper a try, today's daily seed is a bit nasty :) I got a 3:47.4

Jumper seeds are procedurally generated and first simulate jumper and measure her max capabilities and use those as inputs to generation. Jumper seeds are always possible though sometimes difficult :)

This was really awesome! Do you have any resources for how you got started creating an nes emulator? Definitely something I'd like to play around with...

Definitely. I used to work with the people making fakenamegenerator.com, and I never realized how much it really tells you until getting a bit into the code. A fantastic site, to say the least.

Software companies of late pay developers to find bugs in their security. Read more here: http://blog.codinghorror.com

Personally I use http://Fakemailgenerator.com. These seem to be getting a lot more popular lately..

Thank you very much for the in depth reply!

I know I said Game Dev, and games are a fun thing to program, but I honestly could be working on Foo or Bar and I'd have a good time with it.

You mentioned the MIT free courses and such - which believe it or not, I've done the majority of. I only bothered with MIT though because they had a lot of different courses and they were all reliable and in the same place. For a time I was interested in compilers and such, so I read the Dragon Book (Or a good helping of it. That's one ugly book). I've also read a few other technical programming books that I know you have to read in college. Despite this I think I'm leaning towards going to college now for many of the reasons you stated (background, networking, general knowledge). Thank you for your answer it is undoubtedly life changing.

Where did you go?

Is it important where I go? Or can I just try to cross it off the list and soak up the new stuff?

Sorry if I sounded to arrogant. I understand that my mighty 4 years is nothing compared to a lot of people here. Thank you for considerations.

That makes sense. I like how you phrased it "low-risk, safe hires."

Sorry I 'shotgunned' comma's.

Thank you for your critical attitude. I enjoy reading from different perspectives and it is helpful when making these life changing decisions.

I can't seem to find an email address, but I'd love to ask some more specific questions.

It may be because I just made my account, so my apologies in that case.
