[ale] [OT] Anyone up for a 90 Day Wonder Challenge?

[leam hall]

Hey Boris!

One of the biggest challenges learners face is encouragement. Others are
accountability, feedback, and resources.

So our "weekly meeting via electrons" might be me saying my goal is to work
on Chapters 5 and 6 for the book I'm in. I happen to know those two
chapters are memorization so it's a matter of making and using flash cards.
Next week you ask me how well I did on my goals. We congratulate each other
for doing well, make new goals, and enjoy life.

What if we don't make our goals? Okay, we set new ones based on what we
think is reasonable. If we get really stumped by a problem we can talk it
out to see if that helps us get past the hurdle, or we can go research what
char **s[] means, or whatever. Having others to help and encourage seems to
help people learn.

Make sense? I'm sure we can find some folks here who could clarify things
for us but I think we will make better progress if we struggle together a
little before reaching out.
