Learned about the spread operator today. It's such a slick way to make copies of the entire array and combine with other arrays in different ways than just concatenating.


Since CS50, I've been prepping for bootcamp apps. Weighed the pros/cons of Fullstack, App Academy, Hack Reactor. And when I thought I made my decision, I learned about Codesmith. How did I manage to completely miss it in my several rounds of research??


Finally finished week 9 (flask) of CS50 and honestly freaking out a bit that it took me a month from beginning to end. I did intentionally go slow with the lectures to absorb as much as I could and experimented more with the lab, but still...

Just finished the very last CS50 lecture. What a ride! Got teary eyed a little bit as @davidjmalan turned to floating computer monitors, closed with canonical "this was CS50", and walked off stage in silence. Wish he could hear me enthusiastically clapping in gratitude.


Always known but now truly understanding that knowing a single language/framework is not enough to be a full-fledged programmer. The last example of the Flask lecture requires: Python, JavaScript, Flask, Jinja, SQL, jQuery, HTML. Wow! #CS50

This is the calendar equivalent of going a bit too far with regular expressions in programming

Internet =/= World Wide Web. I can't believe that for all my life I thought they were one and the same. I love paradigm breaks, as unsettling as they are. Makes me want to learn more about computer science history.


CS50 pset3 Tideman was excruciatingly difficult. After 15 hours of concoction of fun and frustration, moments of relief and waves of disappointment, and always push for persistence...It's done. It works! It's functional. Now time to refactor for efficiency😅


Lessons from reviewing others' code: Division of integers always truncates the decimals. It doesn't round up or down, just cuts it off. This could've saved me a lot of headache and ~15 lines of code. #selftaught


Physical stress -> exercise Mental stress -> problem sets Emotional stress -> doing what scares you?

Stress + Rest = Growth.



I’ve been in Mexico City for almost a month now, and finally making my way to downtown/el Centro...2 days before my departure...😭I’ve been busy coding okay! 💻 #100DaysOfCode #selftaught


Mood: feverishly typing out the comments because the code is finally working and it's time to push the baby out! #100DaysOfCode #selftaught #CS50

Now that's a cool website: zoomquilt.org


So blown away by computers and internet, the mere access to which gives us an opportunity to understand how they operate. Is there anything else in the world that simply by virtue of its existence, directly and singlehandedly leads to its inner workings? Brains? Is that it?

Learned about y2k and Boeing 248 days problem as it relates to integer overflow. Fascinating! So had to check out lectures from other years for more examples. Well, y2k.v2 is coming on Jan 19, 2038 when it resets to Jan 1, 1970 and some game did Gandhi wrong #CS50 #100DaysOfCode
