🍺Running 'brew upgrade' feels a bit like I'm finally cleaning out my closet and updating it at the same time. I'm wondering why I didn't do this earlier.

You ever feel like that?

@iamheatherstorm @FNCreate Congrats Heather!! They're so lucky to have you!

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

Here are some women in the tech community I've learned from, (everyone should be following):
@zaynelt
@iamheatherstorm
@sunnydalelow
@AlbaSFDC
@jenwlee
@ArchLadies
@EmmaBostian
@ctrlshifti
@cassidoo
@techgirl1908
@editingemily
@sarah_edo

(Thank you💙)

I'll go first. @MicrosoftLearn and @Trailhead are learning platforms from major tech companies. They offer free training, certifications, and have an amazing and welcoming community. No need for a degree😉

I've learned on both, worked for both, and strongly recommend them.

Let's boost this post and share technical resources that help encourage women and other marginalized groups gain skills to get a job in tech.

@BoiseState your move.

@BoiseState Are you aware of the sexism Scott Yenor encourages here? As a woman in tech, I find his comments about stopping encouraging girls in tech to be sickening. https://t.co/o4YY347QhR

@sarah_edo Yep! Quality docs don't accidentally happen. Docs help tell the story. They guide the dev on the journey from the shire to mordor.

Otherwise poor doc quality leads you down a path of orcs and ain't nobody got time for that.

MAR10 Fact: Bowser is a single dad raising his kid on his own! Bowser Jr is his legit child, meanwhile, he's also taking care of his 7 minions (the Koopalings).

Having been an orphan himself (he was raised by Kamek), Bowser is a loving and attentive father.

Mar10 Pop Quiz: Do you know what the squid-looking enemies are called?

Blooper-Named after the sound they make in the ocean.🌊
They're still a pain in the a$$ without fireballs and when you're trying to race.🔥

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

Which could also explain why money comes out of some of the blocks.

I've got more questions now...

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

MAR10 Fact: In Super Mario Bro. dark magic falls upon Mushroom kingdom, and all the people were turned to bricks and plants.

In the game, you break those bricks and burn plants.🔥 So does this mean your high score is a death count? Maybe Mario isn't a hero after all.😱

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

MAR10: Mario and Luigi are fraternal twins!👨‍🦱👨

Even though he has a superior jumping ability than Mario, started in Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels, Luigi has been 2nd to his brother and rarely gets the same credit.

Maybe that's why Luigi developed the scowl🤔

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

MAR10 Fact:🪠 Mario was named after Mario Arnold Segale, an American businessman and real estate developer, while he was renting a warehouse to Nintendo.

🍕Rumors say Luigi 's name was inspired by a pizza parlor near Nintendo of Amer. HQ in Redmond, WA- "Mario & Luigi's"

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

MAR10 Fact: Pauline was the first damsel in distress Mario (or Jumpman) had to save. This was before Peach stole Mario's heart and has been making him chase after her ever since.

Don't worry though, Pauline did well for herself. Her latest appearance was in Super Mario Oddessy.

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

🧑‍🔧MAR10 Fact: The main protagonist in Donkey Kong (released 1981) is 'Jumpman' who is tasked with saving 'Pauline'. (So scandalous!)

This would be technically Mario's first appearance however he wouldn't be known as 'Mario' until the next game, Mario Bro, released 1983.🪠

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

Happy MAR10 Day!

COMING SOON (later today): Deep data analysis and visualizations on all Mario characters appearances, level builds, and enemies.

Throughout the day, I'll be sharing fun facts about Mario and the gang.

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

@vogueandcode Yes! Its healthy to do a bit of introspective thinking regularly.

Then again so is working out and sometimes you gotta just accept things.

[ElizabethDGroot @ElizabethDGroot]

📊Here is the GitHub repo where I put the dataset (and soon the Jupyter Notebook) https://t.co/ydiFKKHbyI

I'm working on the Tableau dashboard.

I'll be posting later the visualizations and analysis (and a killer tutorial).

Stay tuned!

For 30 days, I'm getting rid of things that don't add value to my life with 1 rule. Nothing can go in the landfill.

I must donate, recycle, gift, repurpose, or sell it. ♻️🌎

I'm creating data on this activity and visualizing it with @tableaupublic Follow this thread for more👇

I've FINALLY gotten my data together for my Junk-In-The-Trunk project. I noticed I wasn't consistent in some info. #dataquality https://t.co/I7zqIOO17t

I don't know whether to leave it and do a learning blog on how to fix it w/python 🐍 OR clean it now.🤔

Maybe both!
