"It just makes sense..." LOL it didn't: Dev Diaries Mid-Day1

Uh turns out...

That was for a different area than I was headed, they can all use the same name apparently :) so 6 hours and a test later (I don't wanna talk about the results right now 😅) I'm not a whole lot closer to where I wanna be. It was more of an overview of all software development, not the area I was wanting. It's so hard to tell when you are bouncing around like I do. oops

BUT!

Somehow, I know more than I did. It was a direction I want to go later, just not right now. I do understand the general idea of programming more now, I guess... It felt a bit like trying to study Mars so you can understand the red clay of Earth better... Probably a better way, but hey, the terribly long way works too... XD

Here I go, actually checking out the clay... LOL

Incidentally, I did end up having to check out the job descriptions to see what I'm supposed to be studying. I found out that I was working too hard, and in the wrong direction... hahahaha

Learning about Figma seems so simple and peaceful right now. Brain is happy, burnt out, but happy! :) Trying to learn the dev side has made the overlapping and misleading titles of the design side seem almost sweet lol

The rest of my plan today is still on track. I now just further understand what I'm looking for, I think... lol I've thought that before...

Note:

If you see me posting about learning to program AI in the near future, please send help... I've saved like 4, 12-hour courses so far. Girl! You aren't ready for that, geez!

9 Common Tech Terms Explained

Have you ever felt like tech folks are speaking a different language? You’re not alone. Between “firewalls,” “VPNs,” and “Bluetooth,” it’s easy to get lost in the alphabet soup. Common Tech Terms Some common tech terms are explained in a way that makes sense—there is no confusing jargon, just simple explanations. 🔥 Firewall What it sounds like: A flaming wall that burns hackers. (Not quite.) What…

Time travel fail in which Stan goes back to not break Ford's project, but gets bored waiting for the science fair and decides he might as well give the footbot another try.

He's no McGucket but he knows enough technical mumbo jumbo to make it move at least. If it goes well maybe they let him graduate high school this time around!

Enter the West Coast Tech judges

Genius kid doing genius kid things?

BORING

Worst student the school has ever seen building a fully functional talking robot? The stereotypical dumb boxer kid always overshadowed by his nerdy brother being a secret neglected undiscovered genius? 

THEY CAN SELL THIS! THEIR PR DEPARTMENT WILL LOVE THIS! A TRUE UNDERDOG STORY!

Before Stan has time to process anything he’s already being shipped off California with a full scholarship to be West Coast Tech's new poster child. 

Filbrick: I don’t care how you convinced them you’re worth anything. Don’t fuck this up and earn us millions or you’re not welcome in this house anymore!

Ford is convinced Stan cheated his way into West Coast Tech so they won't get seperated. Ford doesn’t apply to West Coast Tech out of spite. And he's definitely not believing Stan's ridiculous time travel explanation for a second.

Ford becomes obsessed with proving that Stan’s a fraud instead. 

At least they’re still talking. Even if talking means listening to Ford finding flaws in the newest paper Stan was forced to write.

Poor Stan just wants to go home to Gravity Falls and reopen the Mystery Shack

12 minute YouTube video. President Biden warns of a Tech Bros Oligarchy, the erosion of democracy, a new gilded age, robber Barons having an office in the Capitol, and calls for SCOTUS term limits.

I sold a bed and the lady was so nice but I feel like my life essence has been sucked out through a straw. There’s nothing left of me.

[idontmindifuforgetme]

SO happy I’m taking a couple gap years bc I get to pursue all the things I wanted to pursue as a kid and I will go into med school so satisfied

Do you think Omega ever reminds Rex of himself? Two little blond tagalongs to a squad of older troopers? The age gap wasn’t so drastic between him and his brothers, but it sometimes felt that way, in the shadow of some of the best the command class had to offer. He’d learned quick though, as had she. He hopes she gets the life that all their brothers were never allowed to have. The life he never got.

I think he’d sometimes see his brothers in hers as well, though he’d try not to. Hunter and Cody, the steadfast leaders. Cody had found Rex, insisted he’d stay, protected him. He’d do anything for him and made sure Rex knew it too. Perhaps he sees a bit of Wolffe in Wrecker. Tough as nails, both of them look frightening, but are a lot softer than they seem once you get to know them. Not to mention the eye. Maybe he sees some Bly in Echo. Often the peacemaker, he also knew when to step back and let his brothers duke it out. His sense of duty was unmatched. In Tech, he’d see Ponds. People always assumed Ponds was the rational one for some odd reason. Sure, he had a good head on his shoulders, but more often than not he’d be leading the pack in whatever dumbassery they were attempting. He’d usually be the one bailing them out of it too. In Crosshair I think he’d see Fox. Blunt, sometimes harsh, and slow to trust, but clever and deeply loyal too—though that loyalty would be what Palpatine and the Empire would use to twist them into something almost unrecognizable.

I really, really hope that this means what I think it means, and that Teddy is working for Freddie, because I love that evil little computer system with my entire goddamn heart and I want to watch it spread its wings and fly ♡

Dev Diaries: Day 3/7- Show me the Goodies!!

Dear Dev Diary, Masterlist

I have even more of a plan today!!!

I'm going to list the deeper courses I wanna tackle instead of just the individual courses. This way you can see the actual goal I'm going for! 🥰

Full Courses: (Nicknamed, because they chose boring long names...)

High Priority!!

User Research

HTML

CSS

JavaScript

Front-End Dev

Graphic Design

SEO

If they fit...

Starting Agile

Start Soft Dev

Full Stack Dev

Presenting

Soft Dev Fundamentals

Further Agile

These are all several courses inside and anywhere from 7-26 hours long. They also have a lot of courses that in more than one of them.

Today's goals:

CSS (4 hours)

Typography (2 hours)

User Research Finish Up (2 hours, the last few courses are short)

Programing-Databases (1 hour)

Web Dev Full Stack and Front-End (1 hour)

SEO Foundations (1.5 hour -low Prio)

There are others I have lined up to check out as well, but these are the goal. Also, I watch the videos at 1.5 speed at minimum, so the actual watch time is a bit different. This means yesterday wasn't quite as bad, but still 😂

MOTD (Mug Of The Day) and

Today's Water Minion - Dave

It's the little things...🥰

In the midday check-in, I plan to share a few ideas and possibly try to lay out how I see myself working in design and dev.

[coquettejohnny]

people who say that darry would be like old people (tech illiterate, etc) kinda missed the point of his character, the entire idea was that he was forced to grow up too fast when he was still a kid. he's not 40 leave him alone he's 20, he's not much older than ponyboy

AI / Artificial Intelligence

[PT: AI / Artificial Intelligence]

This flag is a Alterhuman flag! And is in the same mindset as my Time Traveler(link) flag. So a flag for those who may believe themselves to be a IRL AI.

This can be due to the fact of delusions, possible spirituality (idk), being a alter/headmate, reality shifting, etc. whatever it is this is meant for those who genuinely believe they are one.

17 minute YouTube. About 7 minutes in he begins his warning about concentrated wealth in a handful of tech bros subverting democracy and creating an oligarchy.

[heyclickadee]

Slightly unhinged Tech theories brought to you by:

1. How stupidly open Star Wars canon is.

2. An extremely stubborn form of optimism.

3. That red herrings only work if the real answer is more satisfying than the distraction, and the fact is that not only did we not get any answer AT ALL, but no one involved will actually straight up say it was a misdirect or what we were being misdirected from or even acknowledge there being any direction at all, meaning it was either the world’s most badly executed red herring, or it wasn’t a red herring at all/we just don’t have the actual answer yet.

4. The fact that Tech isn’t a real person, he’s an idea, meaning I don’t have to accept jack shit. Especially when canon has done so little to actually convince me he’s gone for good and it’s so markedly different than every other loss in the show.

this is a little different from the original because i was trying to make it easier for vectors to represent. along with making the colors more cohesive. — bishop
