Ask HN: What would a reality show for Software Engineers look like?

  96 33,846 0.0 Python

  A toolkit for developing and comparing reinforcement learning algorithms.

  

Very well put. You got me thinking about what I do as a software developer that might be considered entertaining. Maybe computer security events like capture the flag (https://ctftime.org/) or coding an AI agent in a simulated environment to achieve a goal (https://www.codingame.com, https://gym.openai.com/) or simply competing with others to solve an algorithmic problem either on time constraint or code length constraint.

Without appealing visuals none of it will be interesting to people who don’t have a development background. Maybe generative art is the answer but IMO it is more about art than programming.
