Senior dev: Yeah, I used to shy away from command line git too. You'll get there. Keep up the learning.

Wrapped a present for a bridal shower. My daughter informed me I should consider being an elf, I wrap as good as her gifts from Santa. I'll be submitting my application to Santa soon.

Me: writes simple, elegant code to remove a portion of a given string and add a new portion.

Senior dev: here, use replace.

🤦‍♀️

@JavaScriptCoff1 Lots of great lessons from @Raspberry_Pi on their projects page https://t.co/e7QpNFuTQi. And they're in a variety of tools, not just the Pi itself.

Why does it always make so much sense when the senior dev explains it, then I sit down on my own and I'm lost?? #alwayslearning

@ChloeCondon @DThompsonDev @the_jamilah @elchefe @ashleymcnamara @micahgodbolt Finishing week 1 at first tech job, can agree this is accurate.

@Isantosian This is a tough one. Used to, but find it sometimes distracting. Have recently turned to less lyrics. Movie instrumentals, classical covers, and lofi.

@AnnaJMcDougall Subscribed! Love your tweets, can't wait to get more content through Inbox. Thanks!

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

💙 Love for the Tech community! Listened in on two Twitter spaces and connected with an online Women Who Code Cincy event. All dealing with getting started in Tech. Can't wait for my first day Monday!

Just manifesting...

Maybe one day I will actually contribute to StackOverflow rather than leech from it for every project.

My goal is to wrap up SQL Easy on Hackerrank and then try some live data tables. Any suggestions on tables with trail data or campground data?

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

A little less than two hours of study time this morning. How do I work on skills?

For SQL, I started reviewing syntax and commands with https://t.co/yKhYw8pK9T. I prefer reading tutorials to videos. Plus I love the chance to try my curiosities in their editor.

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

There were maybe two problems I completed without having to do some searching. Mostly searching specific errors (of course the dreaded forgotten semicolon 🤦‍♀️).

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

More examples of machine learning bias within existing data. We must be mindful of what the model will pickup on. Great thread!

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

It's a muggy front porch morning. Putting in some time reviewing skills. Today is SQL queries.

@igorasilveira I'm a juice drinker! Orange juice mostly but warm cranberry in the cooler months.

[Jillian @frontporchdev]

Digging more into React for building a blog site. What are your tutorial and video recommendations?

@PrasoonPratham Basic and C++ in 2000. Decided to teach Math, took a break from programming. Then got into Java as a CS teacher in 2014.
