Having a blast working in Figma creating a functional prototype for my app's mockup. The Pomodoro sessions go by quickly! #UX

Although I had to extend the deadline for my Google UX course back in December, I'm now consistently working on it while keeping up with 100Devs Jobuary. Once finished, I'll focus my attention on completing the remainder of the program. #UX #100Devs #WebDevelopment

I'm only using free icons for an app I'm building, but there wasn't one that conveyed financial institution locations with a map, so I used GIMP to make my own! #WebDevelopment

Recently I've felt like Phil Connors stuck on Groundhog day, but today is February 3rd and I'm ready for another 100Devs Jobuary huddle & getting back on track with my Google UX course! #100Devs #UX #WebDevelopment

It's such an incredible feeling to solve a project and being able to close out a couple dozen browser tabs. Of course, I made a folder to reference in the future should I need the resources again.

For anyone that needs a bit of "montage music" to get you going, here's some synthwave. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FJo...

It's been an interesting couple weeks to start off 2025, but after doubling my SSD and tripling my ram I'm ready!

I'd suggest listening to this episode of the Happiness Lab to start off the new year. open.spotify.com/show/3i5TCKh...

Long ago I failed this Kata in under 20 minutes which wasn't helped by my spaghetti code that didn't work. Today I was able to solve it right away simply with : return string.replace(/!$/, "") It's a nice indicator to know progress is being made. #100Devs #JavaScript

This past year my father has taken an interest in Cornell University, so as a Christmas gift I made him a fake diploma! Searched through dozens of fonts to replicate the look and used GIMP to adjust some elements as needed.

Today's lesson learned: confirm that the name of the CSS file you're editing corresponds to the HTML file you have open. This will save your sanity but will also give you peace of mind in the restore option in Visual Studio Code! #100Devs #WebDevelopment

Going through Codewars Katas which I previously wasn't able to solve in under 20 minutes on my first attempt. Figure this one out but it's deceptively simple. HINT: Don't use loops. tinyurl.com/378npjz7 #100Devs #JavaScript

For anyone wanting to learn Regex, regex101.com is an excellent tool to play with! #100Devs #JavaScript #WebDevelopment

If my foster bulldog believes he can jump high enough to reach a squirrel that's 20 feet up a tree, then anyone who puts in daily effort should believe in themselves enough to overcome imposter syndrome. #100Devs #WebDevelopment

Today I learned how to match using regex. It's now part of my Anki deck. #100Devs #JavaScript

Hope your Friday the 13th hasn't been too eventful. I always celebrate by listening to "Jason" by The Midnight! youtu.be/IlLbj7zMxvs #FridayThe13th #TheMidnight

Looking forward to the annual How Did This Get Made? holiday virtual show tomorrow night! I'm hoping to hear June's reaction to the hats in Christmas Mail, see Zooks drinking tea, and maybe hear another childhood story from @paulscheer.com. #HDTGM

My Codewars collection Failed Katas has now reached triple digits, so I have a lot more learning ahead of me! #100Devs #JavaScript

Almost recovered from driving to and from an out-of-state family wedding & ready to finish 2024 strong! #100Devs

Great presentation by @nharris31.bsky.social about Mob Programming. Many h̶a̶n̶d̶s̶ brains make light work! #100Devs #CommitYourCode #WebDevelopment

Maybe I should get KFC for lunch so I can feel more connected to the Commit Your Code conference in person attendees!😆 #100Devs #WebDevelopment #CommitYourCode

Ready for the Commit Your Code conference! I wish I could attend in person but thankfully there's an online option. www.commityourcode.com #100Devs #JavaScript #WebDevelopment
