As relatively new software engineer, one thing I want to know: should career and personal growth be one of my top criteria when it comes to considering a company? #Developer #developerjobs #programmer #SoftwareEngineering #blind #dev #DEVCommunity

Whooo!!! Being able to hide database properties is finally here! @NotionHQ you guys are awesome! 👌🏾

@traversymedia The keyword is “tools”; I’m in my very first job in the industry, and I was surprised we use jQuery, but it gives us more control over the UI we’ve built, and fits OUR needs. No need to always go with the latest framework, just something that fits YOUR needs.

Let’s go back and get reacquainted with my first interest as a CS student 😁
Shoutout to @JoeyDeVriez for creating such an awesome resource!

Got interested graphics in the first year of my CS degree. Found this helpful site called https://t.co/EoJ5NWEtNo; got busy but 4 years later, have a full time job as a developer, but going back to learning graphics, now using a book @JoeyDeVriez ;)

@solomancode @SeKa0815 @ElleArmageddon Also don’t forget that this has a ripple effect on the child’s relationships with others. You should be thankful for your parents’ sacrifices, but that doesn’t excuse them for doing things that can have severe negative impact with your future relationships.

@solomancode @SeKa0815 @ElleArmageddon There’s this field called “Psychology”. In this field they’ve done studies about the long term effects of what mental abuse can do to a child. This includes depression, anxiety, trust issues, unhealthy coping habits, etc. so the child should be thankful to their parents for this?

tell me this isn’t 75% of the CS boys you met in college

#DevDiscuss

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

From the perspective of someone who had just started their first developer job:
- It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and shy! Take notes and ask questions!
- That the company expects you to be an expert already
- Pair programmjng, and mentoring, this is helping me A LOT

[DEV Community @ThePracticalDev]

Time for #DevDiscuss!

Tonight's topic is... Starting a new job

Let's start with questions

- What can you do in your first week to start things off on the right foot?
- What are some common misconceptions about starting a new job?
- What can companies do to best onboard devs?

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

Biggest takeaway from this:
“it’s NOT important to get it right the first time, it’s important to get right the LAST time”

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

As a junior developer, this is a pretty good read. From tools like SMART, PIP, to accepting that it’s okay to not know and that these uncertainties are opportunities to learn.
Recommended 👌🏾 @pragprog @PragmaticAndy

Thanks @hellomayuko for this book recommendation! Bought it after watching your video about tips on debugging!

[Angie Jones @techgirl1908]

Let me be clear.

This man harassed me for a week. I ignored him.

Yesterday was HARD for Black Americans. He decided to turn up the volume on his racism.

I did not doxx him. I highlighted his own tweets and said dont hire him. I did not leak his private info, which I now have

Liftoff!

@js_tut For sure, use at work as reference! Can’t wait for the Python one!

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

@js_tut This is the same book right? Got confused for a second haha

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

@pragprog There was a mistake since the book I ordered wasn’t available in a printed form anymore, got the refund, awesome service!

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

@pragprog Ordered a book from you guys about 2 weeks ago and it says it hasn't shipped yet 😦 Just wanted to know if you guys are open because I can't wait to read the book 😋

[Justin Aquino @jcap___]

@NotionHQ It’s free now, but as a developer, want to try and support such an awesome app even if it’s only $5/month 🙏🏾
