Day 7 of ❄️ Daily Document December ❄️

- A senior dev recommended I practice communication by explaining code to a non-technical person. I attempted "FizzBuzz" with my brother.

- Their feedback: I explained each step thoroughly but forgot to explain how I tested the code.

- Won't forget next time 😅

Day 6 of ❄️ Daily Document December ❄️

I can relate. When that happens, I accept being a night owl temporarily. Slowly fix my sleep schedule for the next two weeks only for it to happen AGAIN! 🫠

Day 3 of ❄️ Daily Document December ❄️

- Learn about system design concepts such as performance vs scalability, latency vs throughput
- Tuned into a live technical mock interview and left with a better understanding of how to go about the process
- Attempted a leetcode problem and my brain went 🫠

Day 2 of ❄️ Daily Document December ❄️

- Decided to learn unit testing using Vitest
- Attempted Test Driven Development
- Found it oddly satisfying to see the green check marks of my unit tests passing 😄✅

Today marks Day 1 of ❄️ Daily Document December ❄️ where I document what I did/learn.

- Reviewed Anki cards covering React, System Design, and JS
- Learned how to reverse a singly linked list
- Found out RAM sticks prices are through the roof 😱 (Maybe I should go download some instead.. /s)

Day 2 check in 😎

Day 1!

I've helped 1000+ people get jobs in tech

This is the most amount of interviews, callbacks & offers I've seen in almost two years

For the next 30 days, I'm going live on Discord every day to help you land one too!

If you are feeling stuck, join us in 15mins

@scrimba.bsky.social Thanks for making React easy and fun to learn. I added a timer feature and roll counter to the Tenzies game and am proud of how it turned out!

Been doing calisthenics lately and I highly recommended dead hangs if you have a pull up bar. Good for your back and spine.

Psst. *looks over shoulder* Appreciate the hack Sam. 🤐

That's a pretty cool bag! Does it carry a MP3 player that only plays the song "World Is Mine"? 😄

This article gave a few ideas I didn't consider for how to approach the planning process. Thanks for sharing! It was helpful.

Spent the whole day creating an app where you input ingredients and it'll generate a recipe base on the ingredients you gave it! All that's left is where can I deploy this for free. 😅(I miss old Heroku)

Looking back at some of my early projects, I realized I could've save myself so much time and frustration had I design first instead of immediately coding from scratch and winging it.

Surely I'm not the only one that made this mistake right?

#CSS view transitions

I appreciate not caring about a lot of details in this interaction pattern, like if landscape or portrait, grid and the browser continue to take care of everything

String.prototype.startsWith() - JavaScript | MDN The startsWith() method of String values determines whether this string begins with the characters of a specified string, returning true or false as appropriate.

Working on a coding problem where you are dealing with the prefixes of multiple strings? Check out the startsWith() string method. It may help you like it did for me in a particular Leetcode problem.

Thanks for sharing! Recently decided to put more effort into networking and this post conveniently pops up. 👍

Just wait til you get addicted and wonder why there's no more new 8 kyu problems to solve. 😁

My first post on Bluesky. Hoping to connect with others in tech and make some new friends 😁.
