Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Show HN: I made a cheaper alternative to college-level math and physics tutoring
There is a Discord server for the OSSU computer science cirriculum that is pretty active. https://github.com/ossu/computer-science

Final project took me longer than expected, but I got there in the end.
For a well-rounded CS knowledge you might want to look into OSSU, which is designed to meet the requirements for univerisity CS courses.

Is codecademy worth it and where else can I learn
OP I hate to double comment and be "that guy who learned to code without going to college who MUST he did it the correct way" cause fuck "that guy". He's annoying, and he never shuts up, and I try really hard not to be that guy.... But I wanna provide some extra reasons I feel you should stay away from Code Academy. And as I said before, not because they're bad courses, so let me be that guy just for a brief moment. In addition to random Youtubers straight up having high quality courses that are much more update date, they often have supplemental tutorials on niche things that aren't covered in a "101 course". But even then, maybe the idea of a certificate on your resume appeals to you... Well, turns out there's more "academic" courses online you can do to get more of those things that self-taught dumbasses like me aren't as strong with because we skipped the "academic" part of learning..... If that's what makes Code Academy appealing (which I don't think they even go over much.... but still)... then here's 2 things I'd look at before pulling out your wallet. Here's Harvards entire introduction to Computer Science courses provided for anyone to take for free (you can pay for a certificate, but its straight up $0.00 to take the classes) Heres a github repo for an Open Source University that a ton of devs have curated to give a simulated full degree program If you want to focus hardcore on being a Web Developer and are frustrated by there not being tutorials that show you exactly how to handle every step from "there's no website on my computer" to "holy shit I made a website", then here you go The Odin Project is an Open Source answer to your cries of frustration. It has curriculum paths that do exactly that. The goal is to go from zero programming knowledge to fully employable as a web developer (by skill level at least, obviously you'll need to build stuff and build a resume)

CMV: People should not be referred to as "Engineers" unless they have a degree in the appropriate field
That said, I'm a software developer and I don't see any point in the distinction of calling someone a software or computer engineer based on education (with the exception of electronics engineers that work on hardware, but here I'm talking about software). A BSc or BEng in computer science or software development can give you a headstart but nothing that can't be self taught and in hiring I've been shocked by many postgrad engineers that couldn't answer simple questions and were outdone by self taught engineers. Make no mistake though - education is required (e.g. you're not going to learn data structures and algorithms through osmosis), but it doesn't have to be formalised as a degree.

After finishing cs50 python, what’s next? What did everybody do? I see there’s an ai course in python.. but not sure if im ready for that yet..
My plan is to follow the training program that the OSSU (Open Source Society University) provides in order to really delve into the topic and learn more. Check out this link for more info: https://github.com/ossu/computer-science

I want to be a software engineer?
If someone's completed CS50X and W any recommendation where to carry on https://github.com/ossu/computer-science I'm thinking from core maths onwards seems reasonable.

My university spits out mediocre professionals, but I want to be more
For fundamentals, https://github.com/ossu/computer-science is a reasonable way to make sure you're covering them.

Any recommendations for studying computer science in the area or online?
If you are going the broad CS route, do you want a degree, or do you just want the knowledge? If you want a degree, maybe start at a JC, then transfer to a UC or CSU (locally...Sac State). If you just want the knowledge, there are a number of websites out there like OSSU or Teach Yourself CS or this one on Github.

Should I continue with the business degree or change to computer science?
Here are pretty much all the classes you would need to take to get a computer science degree.

Should I study calculus in the UK or do further maths?
I'm self-studying, and stuck between taking online calculus courses or use UK textbooks to learn further maths. I'm learning maths for a career in CS, following advice online(loose guidelines from a github). Most sources say to learn calculus for CS, however I've seen that A-Level maths is calculus and further maths is less calculus? I'm just confused, there are resources for calculus online so I could do either. My other line of thinking is that if UK has maths/further maths then that must be enough for Universities here... If anyone can give any advice or just point me in the right direction that would be great!

A Question for Freelancers
Also check this repository out. It has some useful resources that will give you an edge over others. https://github.com/ForrestKnight/open-source-cs Don't use it right now. Start it when you have learnt a bit of HTML, CSS, Javascript. When you become familiar with these and have built some projects then you will need to up your game. At that point you will be needing this repository.

Seeking mentors & dedicated learners who want to collab & connect while keeping each other motivated to becoming the next developers.🔥 Using Zero to Mastery + other resources. Here's my general guide i'm following to becoming a software engineer:
Although, I am a current comp-sci student, I'm self-learning how to program and self-preparing myself to be job ready. Although, it has definitely been proven possible to achieve this without a computer science education, if anyone who wants to join the group is interested in that, following this free program🎓 while learning to code, would be pretty much the same curriculum that I'm taking at university.
What are some alternatives?
