Anybody have experience with his site, greatcoderclub? That looks like an interesting way to get over the activation energy and build up some discipline for pushing out side projects.
I was a participant for a month. I realized that my problem was time rather than motivation. Other than that, it is an excellent community and well worth the fee! The instructor's path and the community's expansion is a really great thing to be a part of. I almost kept paying to just watch the community grow, but felt guilt in eating up a spot.
I've signed up. The content is pretty good and covers parsers, compilers, VMs, and a few more things. There is code, videos, and exercises to guide you along each project.
