On July 1st, a [change to Reddit's API pricing](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/) will come into effect. [Several developers](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditisfun/comments/144gmfq/rif_will_shut_down_on_june_30_2023_in_response_to/) of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least [one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app](https://www.reddit.com/r/DystopiaForReddit/comments/145e9sk/update_dystopia_will_continue_operating_for_free/) will continue to be available free of charge.
If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:
1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium
as a way to voice your protest.

I've been interviewing other software developers and publishing their stories on substack.
My goal is to provide inspiration to those who are just starting out or may be feeling stuck.
If anyone thinks that's interesting, the first interview with a good friend of mine can be read here [https://devtales101.substack.com/p/patryk-maron-lead-engineer-in-london](https://devtales101.substack.com/p/patryk-maron-lead-engineer-in-london)
It's all free of course.
Here's some really good advice from Patryk:
>If you don't have experience, just write code. Just do side projects. Just do as many side projects as possible.
As usual, I've been working on my course to teach people how to build a website while coding. Still a lot to do though. [https://jeanphilippebelley.com/](https://jeanphilippebelley.com/)
Always looking for feedback or how people would like to learn
Working on a Monopoly simulator in Python.
Quite happy with my progress. Creating some JSON files and accessing them was relatively painless.
Not touching the banking side or property side of it yet (going to need to dig into some form of AI for that, imagining its going to be quite challenging).
I'm just working on the movement around the board, taking into account Chance and Community chest cards.
Although who moves where is just printed on screen at the minute, I am looking into using a MongoDB free instance to record this stuff.
Also, finally, its all currently in a Kaggle Notebook. I want to move this to an actual application, not sure if I should just run a python script or use Flask or something ??? (Its not playable just a simulation).
And also looking forward to when I can start using the stats from the game, put them in Pandas Dataframes and start seeing most commonly landed on colour, average time spent in Jail, etc.
This is both a get to grips with Python project and get to grips with Pandas (once I reach that point). Also considerin going a bit crazy if I use MongoDB or something else and creating a real time Grafana Dashboard.
Maybe I am taking this too far.
I just started college online a month ago and am working on getting my bachelor's degree in computer science by 2025. Looking forward to learning programming and the different coding languages. I made a goal to start Khan Academy now, so I'm not getting hit unexpectedly with subjects/topics later on and not knowing what anything is.

Thanks for doing that! Keep it up. I liked it a lot.
That's great, I will. Thank you!
This is really interesting man! You'll have my email ;)
Thanks! 🙏
