These are the raw confessions of the growing pains I experience as I learn software engineering. I am learning on my own but with lots of priceless resources online. You'll hear about these resources in my articles. Please pray for me!

How The News of AI Replacing Programmers Affected Me About 9 months to a year ago, I thought all the hard work I'd been doing was turning out to be a waste of time... The word on everyone's lips was,

How I Worked Through Fixing A JavaScript Problem in The CodeHS Curriculum
I am really feeling good right now! I am most certainly still a novice, but I am finally understanding how Javascript operates. I can not explain to you how clueless I was about coding! I was lost and the only thing I could do was pick away at my key...
I spent my day creating and consuming content. The creation was good, I made the second part of a video series. But clearing my phone memory was a pain, I need a new phone and computer that are able to manage the amount of content I am producing.
I also spent a lot of time revamping my LinkedIn page. I haven't updated it in several years. I've been listening to some influential YouTubers and having an intentional social media presence is essential as a web developer.
Obviously, I blog and sometimes you'll find technical information in my writing. I am considering making my writing a bit more technical while keeping it very personal. I like this space to share my day and how learning code looks in my life.
I don't want to lose this therapeutic exercise, but I think it's definitely worth tweaking. Below is one of the YouTubers that inspired me to reconsider how I use this Hashnode blog.
So here goes my tech advice...It's important to develop a social media presence. It gets you involved in the developer community, sharpens your skills as a programmer, and allows potential employers to evaluate if you'll be a good contributor to their work process.
As a programmer that is looking to stay in the freelance world(at least that's my plan for now, it is flexible in that I am growing every day and will do what's necessary to be a great coder), having a social media presence gives potential clients an opportunity to interact with my technical skills.
So there it is, my first "teaching" component. Dive into a blog and go apeshit!
With these words, I bid you...
Good night
