@EscondidoPolice @SDSheriff Can’t understand the helicopter flying around Escondido right now. Where do you post what the helicopter announcements are? I’m having trouble finding the information.

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

@SDSheriff Is this what the helicopter announcement is right now? I can’t understand what they’re saying.

D66-67: Watching Wes Bos explain selecting elements in the DOM. Chipping away at studying as often as I can. Its definitely a struggle with working full time and having a 6 month old.

D64-65: Learning about debugging and scope from @wesbos. Todays takeaway is to avoid global scoping whenever possible.

@jessbudd4 @stringy @swyx @mellowbeing Currently have a 6 month old and working full time, and so glad to have a supportive partner too! I see you're a front end dev and accessibility consultant - I'm super interested in learning about accessibility. Have any recommendations on how to get started?

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

@the_real_stacie @swyx Ugh... I needed to hear this. I feel like I'm moving too slow to make real progress. But moving at all is progress in itself... just need to hang in there.

@BekahHW @bvlktech @swyx @JesseRWeigel @Phillylosophy Hi Bekah, I'm also a working mom trying to teach myself to code and I would be very interested in the Moms-in-Tech slack group. Would I be able to get an invite?

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

@GrantGlidewell   because it’s what I know so far 🤷‍♀️🙃

@GrantGlidewell @laurieontech @eggheadio You're the best @GrantGlidewell! 🥰 I would absolutely use an @eggheadio membership 🙌

@ChristinHebron From what I've heard, JavaScript is a good way to go.

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

@ChristinHebron Currently learning through freeCodeCamp, and supplementing with Frontend Masters, Google, Code Wars, YouTube, and local meetups. I know some folks that are programmers, so I also have human resources if I get stuck which is helpful. What about you?

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

D58: Expressions! Oh man, I'm finally onto something that makes some sense, and now I feel like I have a fighting chance at solving some Code Wars!

@ChristinHebron I also currently have a job I enjoy and is stable. But the potential benefits and opportunities of a career as a Dev are calling... and these possibilities just don't exist in my current career path.

[Tamara @codetamaracode]

D57: Promises, Promises! Almost done with the ES6 freecodecamp section. Still not totally grasping all the concepts - but I'm going to push through and eventually it will click. Right? RIGHT??
