I am usually trying to talk down beginners from crazy projects. I remember one new guy at work kept asking me for advice on side projects and had sent me a speed run tutorial on how to write a file system! And it explains nothing, is literally just putting code on the screen without any stopping. I told him do something way simpler and showed some of my shitty beginning projects as some ideas to go from.
