As the title states, I just finished my degree in BUS IT (I also studied Computer Science, did plenty of Teaching Assistant work as well for Algorithms, Analytics, and Database Management).

For the past 2 years, I've been leading a B2B tech startup aimed at universities (I'm responsible for all backend systems, lead gathering, demographic capturing, etc.). I'm also fluent in Spanish.

How would you tackle this?

When i say “tools”, i don’t mean enter 2 values and sum them. No, i mean something that handles computational problems such as your own interpreter for a custom database, building anything that deals with time and conflict handling, scheduling, a custom code editor, etc.

Building a REST API isn’t going to improve these skills since they’re completely different (tho, you can still run into complexity with middleware and authentication).

I say this from my own experience building these tools. Here are examples of how it helped me:

• Building an interpreter for my custom database helped me to understand FSMs, making this problem trivial: https://leetcode.com/problems/string-to-integer-atoi/
• Building the event overlap handling with my scheduler is quite similar to this: https://leetcode.com/problems/merge-intervals/

It’s a good challenge and it really teaches you the fundamentals of problem solving and software development.

For anyone interested in Ghost Recon 1, this is a fantastic video by BurnerTactical that really covers the depth that these AI offer!

It’s through Burner that I even got into the Ghost Recon series since I was blown away by the results here (and shortly afterwards with my own).

Hope you enjoy :)

I'll see a post occasionally asking for a product, only to click on their history and see they're literally building something themselves.

So, genuine question, who here is genuinely looking for something and not building?
