Day 18: Pong 11 years ago

Love what you're doing here! A friend of mine have been working on a Pong clone in order to learn Rust and plan on documenting our experience. In particular, what are the valuable aspects or takeaways from these kinds of post-mortems? The reason I ask is as a result of using Pong as an example to learn Rust better, I'm finding a ton of language specific material I could document as opposed to game mechanics. Trying to find the right balance of material.

"So currently mining Bitcoins requires power levels somewhere between the one produced by the Hoover Dam, and the world’s larges coal fired power station."

Emphasis on "currently"

Disruptive technologies are almost always costly in some way or another until more widely adopted.
