Coding

Learning Python within one week. Day 3 now. Maybe too slow? I can recall a few of what I learnt last year on Python 2. I wonder why coders like to name things after snakes or bugs.... Like Python or Spyder...... both of the things that I can't stand.....

After all the "interviews" or tests, I think at the end of all that, I probably learn all the languages available. Sometimes, I just lacked one or just one of it was not what I've learnt and I have to catch that up but then I didn't get the job. Pros and cons. If I didn't get the job, I get to use it for another job but then the dead cycles continued. I guess have to really focus on one and be good at it. If you don't use it, using it became less and less efficient until they are long forgotten friends.

I asked different people, all come up with different answers. Some was merely preference, some efficiency, some less thing to type, some easier to understand... I looked at articles that repeat itself. Verbose. Probably only 1% of their content is applicable to me. I read more and more but there is really nothing in it if you read more. Another dead cycle. Reading too much doesn't really get you anywhere if the content's quality is bad and you don't get it but then the insecurity in me makes me want to read more. I wasted the time just reading and not doing. That is not good. As in the quality of the code. Some say this way and some say that way. I realised one of my mistakes is not knowing how to test my code more efficiently so it worked in all cases.

After Python, I guess I need to go look at PHP. The C++ I've learnt was done 10 years ago (first ever programming language). Long forgotten I guess so got to brush it up a bit. The Matlab I used wasn't really the same as 10 years ago too. Anyway, I didn't realise their true power back then. I don't really need it anyway.

Amount

 The amount I spent on learning before applying actually costed me more money until I do enough work. Still learning process is still needed even while working.  Doing things subconsciously can make the easiest problem complicated. Could be your old habits or subconscious typing or the auto correction? hm.. This one is more like my habit. It is a hard to catch error when we did like that. I was thinking what goes wrong and no matter what I did, it would not return my desired results. Turned the code that I wrote previously and just a line only which I overlooked while checking, was blocking the rest of the changes… Dangerous code is the counter code that you wrote to right a wrong or blocking the wrong from working. That’s normally a temporary solution but the solution turned out to be preventing me doing other works… sigh… 😮‍💨  Today’s a lucky day and I found it while doing another part… so it is good not to always focus on one problem. The other problem could be the c...

Tools and Work

 Things I bought for work. Another addition of $18.60 to the lost count of things that I bought for work. USB C to HDMI adapter has ARRIVED. Previously, I bought a hoco. and it is working fine still but too bad Shopee and Lazada don’t have them. I bought UGREEN then. I am attracted to name with colours on it. Hehe. Need one at the office so that I have less thing to carry back and fro of home. I bought another ergonomic mouse. My hand could go numb from using the mouse. Actually I have hand numb issue since young. Writing makes my hand numb. Not sure if that is normal but I do practice. I am not entirely sure if that is right hand only. When I used my left, I can write for a long long time even though the hand writing looks bad.  Bought soldering iron and tools set. Bought HDMI to mini port display x 3. One not working anymore and that’s why I bought another 2 (UGREEN $7.48 and IVANKY) because the working laptop needed it to display on another monitor. Bought a portable monito...

hmmmm

Keyboard warrior's keyboard checked. Another Jean checked. It is to make up for the pants that I spoiled two days ago. Just when I arrived at the office, I sat on a chair whereby the surface is grid-like and the  buttoned-up fake pocket button on the right side got plucked off leaving a hole a bit on the upper side of the bum. There is a flap that was together with the button. It just covers the hole a bit. I am not sure if the slit that the button goes through was big enough to see through. I tried to ensure my shirt was over the hole though at least to cover while I was not seated. It wasn't a good time. I was wondering should I just walk off to buy another pants but decided not to because we were busy. That went on for the rest of the day. A day to remember. The pants lasted 10 years. I bought it during my first job at 2011. Anyway, it was a bit tight around the waist so shouldn't have worn it at all. Although I am a bit heavier, my waist is a bit off only. I wonder if m...
