Comment on Ask HN: project ideas for a noob

Comments

after making a few API`s using java, after coding in c and cpp for about two years, i moved on to explore the capabilities of various other languages. i took me about 6 months; but it was well worth the time. I suggest you try out networking projects; maybe a chat client coupled with a file transfer mechanism; or maybe a P2P file sharing project. i don`t agree with the comment which says "mischief motivated you like none other". it is true that many are interested towards activities like circumventing security systems, but as long as you do not understand the fundamental concepts behind the working of a particular exploit or shellcode; you`ll be wasting your time and will remain a script-kiddie learning little or nothing.
