What should Coding Challenges become next?

Something needs to change, and I’d like you to help shape it.

Hey,

I’d love your help with something.

I’ve noticed that fewer people are opening and reading Coding Challenges each week. That tells me one of two things is probably true:

Either life is busy and inboxes are noisy, which I completely understand.

Or the newsletter isn’t giving you enough value right now.

I don’t want to keep sending you things that aren’t useful. I’d much rather shape this into something you genuinely look forward to opening.

So I have one question:

What would make Coding Challenges worth reading every week?

You can reply with a number if that’s easiest:

1. More coding challenges and practical projects

2. More AI, LLMs, and generative AI content

3. More software engineering, architecture, testing, and system design

Or reply with your own answer.

Some things I’d be happy to write about include:

• Learning to code

• Learning AI

• Building AI products

• LLMs and generative AI

• Deploying AI systems.

• System design and architecture

• Testing and maintenance

• Engineering excellence

• Programming languages

• Databases

• Cloud platforms

• AI tooling

• Developer productivity

I know that’s a broad list, so don’t feel limited by it. The main thing I want to know is what would actually help you.

If you’re happy to share publicly, please leave a comment. It would help build a better conversation around where Coding Challenges should go next.

If you’d rather keep it private, just hit reply and email me directly.

And if this newsletter isn’t for you anymore, no hard feelings at all. Please unsubscribe. I’d rather not keep bothering people who don’t want these emails.

Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance if you reply.

John
