Woke up really early on a Sunday by my alarm which somehow was still set from a early morning race. Luckily this was launch day and my overall impression of the launch was that I am really surprised that the Booster was caught by the chopsticks. I was also surprised that the Starship still had a bit of tile issues near the flap. Later in the day I re-started my learning for the CCNA with a change, from studying subnetting to using the network simulator to start learning how to interact with routers and switches....

Really happy when plans come together. Its been many months since we first started to scope out the Colorado Rail game. Today was the first meeting with the project manager who is helping guide the project. What struck me was how much research he did to understand the game. From comparing the game to others, to figuring out what the color scheme is, to asking who the target audience is to understanding the flow of the game and the attractions....

So I looked at my Coursera courses and didn’t see anything except a TCPIP course. I wanted to do something a bit different tonight so I logged back into my Boot.Dev course and click start over on Python. For right now I want interactive and practical....

In studding for the CCNA, I am using a host of resources. Simulator software, real Cisco hardware, textbooks and online exams. I am trying to put a full court press in learning the materials. I am glad I finished my IP Subnetting online course but now when I am turning to the textbooks, I am finding that I have so many other resources. One such resource is the PTP practice exam, as I just took about 10 questions and only got one correct....

It was really nice to see a old course I made. It had a 4.2 star rating and had over 3000 students signed up. I had kinda forgotten about it. As I work on the video game, I am looking forward to having users and getting it online for people to learn about history, politics and transportation. I also look forward for people supporting the work and giving feedback. I hope the game will be much more interactive than the online course in making updates....
