I think pretty much everybody encouraged.

So the main challenge I would have with that, first of all, that'd be encouraging people to specialize. Like I've watched lots of documentaries and I do, I play video games and stuff.

And the main challenge is, first of all, just like other physical sports, your, uh, acumen does kind of decline with even like, like a lot of pro gamers might peak at like 25 and their reaction time starts to go down.

And, and that's a problem. Like I like sports like chess and things like that. And you could argue chess is kind of a young man's game or a young woman's game, but sure. You know, I mean like you, you can still play pretty well. Cause it's not like synchronous. Like you're not having to make like hundreds of keyboard and mouse inputs per minute, like with Starcraft or something like that. Right.

So I would say the biggest problem with that is it would be encouraging people to get really good at video games when they should be learning the code. I always joke that like free code game is not competing with universities and We're not competing with, you know, textbooks.

Yeah. So I just, I worry that people would think like, oh, I should, instead of coding, I could just be playing games. And really you should be coding. Like competitive programming is something I've considered.

uh for sure like we could have a competitive programming league there are lots of cool websites for sure that people use to to do competitive programming people ask about how about a capture the flag team the free code camp ctf team that might be kind of cool yeah i mean these are great code games jared code games are cool man these are also things that uh you know a very small team surgically focused on a curriculum that i see this is kind of like digressions and there's nothing wrong with that like we built a video game we built learn to code rpg i

Yeah, it's basically like a visual novel type game built in Renpai, which is a great visual novel engine. If you want to build something that people will actually play, you could write a book and good luck getting people to read it. You have to be really compelling and good at telling people to read your book and get them to read your book in 2024.

But if you put it in a visual novel, suddenly people are very interested and they'll just click through it on their lunch break while they're eating. I do think that the future of education could resemble a game. If you've read Ready Player One, it's basically the entire education system has been delegated to being a part of this big MMO game.
