Quite a lot has happened! The broad strokes:<br><br>&#8211; My group met for the first time on Saturday. Kyle, Corey, and myself are all working professionals, and we&#8217;re all just trying to finish our last class. I&#8217;m stoked we all have similar perspectives and expectations around what needs to get done. What&#8217;s more, we&#8217;re used to working in Agile teams, so the ceremonies and protocols will be familiar to us all. I&#8217;ve got good feelings about this group! I tend to have pretty good luck with teammates in group projects in this program, and I think the trend is going to finish out this term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Projects got assigned! I&#8217;ll be working on a self driving simulator. I had really been gunning for this one, I spend a lot of time listening to Lex Fridman and I think it&#8217;s a very interesting problem space. To be honest, I gambled a little bit and sprung for an upgrade for my PC &#8211; doubled my RAM &#8211; in the hopes that I would need it to run the program for this assignment. I&#8217;m really looking forward to taking my new hardware for a test drive, so to speak \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; The project plan is due next Monday, so we need to decide very quickly on the general avenues we&#8217;re going to take. I&#8217;m leaning towards a 2D Top-Down simulation, but we&#8217;re talking about doing self driving in GTA. We&#8217;ll have to see where the chips fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s it for now. Happy coding!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This marks the second week of this project. Quite a lot has happened!
