Beyond all else, "Marquee Moon" is a 10-minute song, and when I was in early CS, with a 2am turn-in time for projects, I would repeat "Marquee Moon" and commit every time the song ends.
Spent the whole day debugging a #React error for my son's STEM school project. No solution, and google hasn't been much help. FWIW, the code was written by 10'th graders and not that organized. Still better than a lot of #bootcamp grads.
I told him to create a new project from scratch and do it properly. Wish me luck when I pair-program with him tomorrow
Dernier jour du coding bootcamp consacré à Delphi, 6 ou 7 sessions au programme: du design pattern, passer en cloud via Amazon SDK, du responsive design en FMX, P4D et NexusDB, des bases sur les bases de données et leur utilisation en no code. En bonus possible une session live sur le développement d'une application mobile en FMX.
@renice#Discovery is red team. #DS9 is the beleaguered #neteng that keeps getting told there's no funding for a dedicated blue team. Except sometimes #section31 comes along claiming to be blue team, but they're really a bunch of self-motivated charcoal-hat cowboy coders on shadow projects. You're pretty sure most of them couldn't pass the company code of conduct policy tests. There's a persistent rumor they're going to get formally recognized as a skill team any quarter now.
#Voyager is that startup that never quite lands their IPO, and keeps having to seek new sources of VC funding along the way. They keep picking up new people, and the old hands can barely remember what it was like before seven years of 24/7 crunch time.
#Prodigy is that code #bootcamp that gets away with not charging for their services because the parent company accidentally bundled them with a datacenter's electric bill, where they're just noise in the budget.
#Picard is the local #Solaris users group that's all gung-ho about #Illumos. They've got some good points and originated some iconic features, but they're principally about nostalgia these days.
#tos is the retrocomputing club. Spectrum Sinclairs and Altairs line the walls, but are mostly for show. Someone converted an old IBM POWER workstation into a #Hackintosh so they could show Kid Pix to the kids. Everybody else spends their time showing off their DOS savegame files on the club's file server. One guy is playing DOOM in the corner with the music coming from an external Roland MIDI keyboard. Another guy figured out how to launch old DOS door games under containerized #dosemu instances via inetd, but people stopped talking to him once he solved the sandbox escape problem by having systemd launch the containers on-demand in a deprivileged chroot.
#StrangeNewWorlds is the club founded by that guy from the retrocomputing club that got DOS door games running via systemd; Now he's porting his door game collection to run in #webassembly, and has managed to reach a new generation of people respinning the classics.
#Enterprise is the #beos users group. Really a subgroup of the local retrocomputing club. They hate it, because people keep confusing their interests with Mac OS Classic and Linux.
This week, Week 9 of our Data Citizen Bootcamp at Cambridge Spark, was a gentle intro to Python for Data Analysis, including an intro to the Pan
I found a very nice article called "A Beginner’s Guide to Data Analysis in Python" written by Natassha Selvaraj. It is a very well-written article with plenty of examples to follow through. Most definitely worth a read.
Enjoy! 😉
