Pondering On The Parallels Between Plato’s Philosophical Work And Modern Software Engineering Culture. — Plato’s Republic would certainly not be the first thing that comes to mind when contemplating software engineering, but philosophical principles can offer intriguing insights and parallels to modern best practices! By applying Plato’s principles of justice, societal structure, and education, we can envisage a Republic of software engineering.

Creating Tokens For a Hyphothethical Yet Working Programming Language to Understand Compilers Better — In the previous part of this series, Building a Mythological Programming Language Compiler For an x86 CPU (NASM) — Part I — Hades), we have covered what we want to accomplish and the general structure of a compiler: Code => Tokens => Parsed Tokens as Abstract Syntax Tree => Assembly…

An Educational Passion Project to Understand The Complexities of Building a Compiler to NASM For a Custom Language — To kick off this series, we will discuss what a compiler is and what the general structure of a compiler looks like. We will implement throughout the series a fairly basic compiler for a new programming language, following the classic skeleton of a compiler. The immediate goal is to create…

Uncovering Myths and Realities of Software Engineering Day-to-Day Without Sugarcoating — Software engineering is akin to modern alchemy where engineering minds forge miraculous solutions from ones and zeros. It’s seen as a field where innovation is constant, job opportunities are endless, and the work environment is nothing short of idyllic. There are a couple of problems with this romanticised understanding as…

Understanding Assembly CPU Operations Step-by-Step — To more intuitively understand how the central processing units in our devices function, let’s implement a very basic educational emulator which will simulate what the CPU would be doing in hardware. If you like this content, please consider clapping, following and subscribing to my newsletter. HelloWorld Assembly Program For our purposes, we will…

How Much Time Gets Wasted On Manual QA For Bugs That Could Have Been Caught Automagically? — This is a polarising topic for the game development Godot Community but one I feel needs awareness and consideration just the same. …

Add These Light CSS and JS Libraries to Your Website To Make it More Flashy Using Just Classes — Whether it’s your personal or company website, you can make use of the following libraries very easily to right away add some flashiness either generically to your pages or especially to call-to-action elements. Frameworks have come a long way since the time when marquee was the fanciest 🙂. Animations.css

Designing a Simple 3D Environment in Godot For Experimenting With Machine Learning Reinforcement Learning. — In the previous part of this series, we set up the Godot Game Engine with an empty 3D scene and downloaded and added it to the Godot RL Agents machine learning library. In this part, we want to create a scene that has: A road made of simple 3D boxes. …

Leveraging the Godot RL Agents ML Library To Build a Basic Car Simulation With Reinforcement Reward-Based Learning! — This is an experiment I have been wanting to pursue for a while as a learning opportunity. …
