##My Plan To Learn at least 1 Thing in Programming a day

Rules

1. I must learn at least 1 new thing a day
2. I'm not allowed to simply read about the thing I am learning. I must type out the code or implement the idea myself.
3. I must understand what I learn each day. E.g. I need to be able to replicate what I learned in different scenarios on my own. No copy/paste/"script-kiddie" behavior is allowed.
4. I must be able to from memory recount everything I learned, before I am done for the day

####Daily Progress

• Day Two (09/28/2015) - Started Learning Neural Networks; perceptron, sigmoid
• Day One (09/27/2015) - Learned the basics of markdown
• Days XX-XX - Learned stuff - got lost on laptop that crashed. will recover laptop eventually
• Day "Twenty" (06/07/2016) - Made a dotfiles install script for switching laptops/servers
• Day "TwentyTwo" (11/10/2016) - Working on implementing sorting algorithmsq ####Future Ideas
• Forking and branching and pull requests in github
• Functional Programming
• AI/Neural Networks
• Modern dev workflow behavior - TDD, Jenkins, grunt, npm, amd
• Writing partial implementations of many "black boxes" I use - Jquery, Twitter Bootstrap, a web server, git, rendering engines
• Automating stuff
• Knuth TAOCP
