Robots/electronics – Unplayable video games

I used to want to learn as many programming languages as I could

And so far that has not worked out for me. So I thought what is it that I want to do with programming. Do I want to make a game. Yes. Do I want to learn more about machine learning. Yes.

I suppose it would have been cool to learn 20+ programming languages though I don’t want to spend that much time in front of a computer. There are other things in life besides computers you know.

And I also thought to myself what programming languages do I want to learn? I want to learn python, pharo and High level assembly.

I want to learn python so I can do machine learning. Pharo because well I think its cool. And High level assembly because I also think its cool. I like that I can use the registers and learn about the computers internals with high level assembly.

So I will see if I ever make a program or not. If I focus on making something like python so I can get good enough to make a program with it then I will know if I am cut out to make programs.

Because in the end what I want to do is make a program not spend the rest of my life learning on programming language one went and another language the next week.

In addition to building electronics I

also want to know how to repair electronics. To take something that is broken and fix it. That sounds fun to me. And it also goes with electronics recycling.

I think that fixing and building electronic would be much more fun that sitting in front of a computer. And I get to fix things and make things go.

Robots, electronics

Another hobby I want in my life is the skill to build electronics and robots. Using a computer is OK. I want to make things that move around in the world. I want to be able to make things that move.

I have read electronics for dummies and thought it was interesting but, I never built any of the projects. I want to see if I can build electronics that work. I want to build projects with Raspberry PI.

I remember awhile ago I got a kit that was maybe a robot kit. I only had to put together a few pieces. Even though I did not have to do much it was fun to put together a thing that would move. It was more like am RC car than a robot though.

It had 3 wheels that were attached to a circuit board. The kit also had a transmitter that had buttons to use to the the robot drive around. I never used the robot. I used it a few times that is all.
