#100Devs

Transitioning into tech does NOT mean you are starting from scratch. Say it with me!

'My past experience has value!'

'My story helps set me apart!'

Let me explain how I leveraged my story to help me become the Software Engineer that I am today.

🧵👇
I have 10 years of prior experience in varied fields across healthcare, public health, biomedical/clinical research, and fitness.

Namely, I spent 2 years in medical school and I contributed to research projects in 3 different organizations leading up to that.
I balanced my work as a Personal Trainer while working through the web dev bootcamp of 100Devs. I had no formal instruction in programming outside of what I learned with 100Devs.

During my job search, I targeted companies that were related to my past work.

#100Devs

I crunched the numbers for my job search and the results are in! Wanna know how I broke into tech as a Software Engineer? Open the tread 👇🏻🧵

Months: 6

Total Apps: 43
> Submitted by Recruiter: 31
> Premium Apps: 12

Interviews at Different Companies: 8

Offers: 1
I started advertising on LinkedIn and Twitter that I was looking for a SWE role on June 14, 2022.

I continued posting every weekday (M-F) adding value to my network and looking for coffee chats. I hopped on the phone with EVERY recruiter that DMed me.
Starting in November, I reconnected with my close contacts and began asking for referrals. I took my time to craft and submit my 'premium applications' at a rate of about 1 per week. That means:
- Referred app
- Custom Resume & Cover Letter
- Relevant portfolio project

A quick thread on types of Machine Learning Algorithms if you are just getting started.

#100Devs #100DaysOfCode
On a broad level ML algorithms are are of 4 types

1️⃣ Supervised Learning
2️⃣ Semi supervised learning
3️⃣ Unsupervised learning
4️⃣ Reinforcement

Let's explore what they mean & see further bifurcation of them
1️⃣ Supervised Learning

• A machine is taught by example
• A known dataset which includes desired inputs & outputs are provided

• The algo needs to find patterns in the input dataset, learns from observations & makes prediction with high acchrai

A few tips on how you can improve your problem-solving skills for programming [🧵]

#100DaysOfCode #100Devs #webdev
1. Practice As Much As Possible

If you want to get better at problem-solving, you should practice regularly.

I can not recommend codewars.com enough. Having years of professional experience, I still get a lot of value from solving coding challenges from time to time.
2. Double-Down On Fundamentals

The reason why you might struggle at solving the more complex problems could be because you haven't mastered the basics. If you've never heard about a method, you have no chance of knowing how to use it...

How I study for interviews

🧶🐈 1/7
1. List out talking points

Create a set of bullet points of each topic you want to cover.

Tailor to the company and job description. 2/7
2. Rehearse the talking points

Read word-for-word at first, aloud, until you feel comfortable.

Ideally record yourself with e.g. Quicktime or @CaptoForMac. 3/7

Anxious about what to do with your first freelance #100Devs lead?😱😱

I went through this recently and am happy to share more on the big steps and exact things I said that worked for me…
1. Start with what you know.
- What do they sell/do?
- Do they have a current site?
- Any idea of what they are looking for from you?
2. Research those things.
- Google some possible competition.
- Google “web design/dev/marketing for XYZ industry.”
- Write lots of notes to bring! You will feel more prepared even if you don’t use them.

A few days ago I posted a gif showcasing my build of one of the websites we had for homework. But lately there's been a lot of the #100Devs fam saying that seeing people post near pixel-perfect builds was making them anxious about falling behind. So let's #KeepItReal: +
🧵
This is an inclusive program. There are people from all walks of life. Some of us are studying while holding 2 full-time jobs, some of have kids to take care of and can't dedicate much time to it even though they want it. Some are able to study for 12 hours straight! +
Feeling like you just can't keep up is totally normal if this is new to you or you have a bunch of other things going on in your life. And you shouldn't feel like you're falling behind because your layouts aren't perfectly matching the wireframe when you're 5 weeks into coding. +

CSS box model is fucking hard

here's a brief explanation for dummies like me:

WTF is CSS box model?

basically, just a term to talk about design and layout.

everything on a webpage is a fucking box.

the CSS box model is a box around every HTML element. it consists of the actual content, padding, border, and margin.
from the inside out, the order of the box property is content, padding, border, and margin.

on the image below:
- the actual content is highlighted in blue

8 Ways to Increase PRODUCTIVITY in 2022

Thread 🧵
In simple terms, productivity describes how efficiently you can get much work done.

After struggling a lot last year to be productive, here are 8 tips that have worked for me since my discovery.

I’m using these tips this year and it’s helping me get work done efficiently.
1. Plan your day a night before.

Everyone has a limited amount of willpower given per day.

The more you use it, the more it gets exhausted.

Planning your day a night before reduces decision fatigue the next morning.

This saves you willpower for the next day.

How to write a solidity code like a Professional?

This simplified style guide is intended to help Solidity programmers adhere to basic coding conventions. 🔥

Mega Thread 🧵

#100DaysOfCode #Solidity #web3 #blockchain #100Devs #techtwitter
{2/24}
Properly styled computer code is more easily read and understood by humans.

You may revisit the code you write later, or you may work on code with other people in the future. It’s important that your code is easily understood by yourself and others.

Consistency:

Code is read much more often than it is written. The guidelines provided here are intended to improve the readability of code and make it consistent across the wide spectrum of Solidity code.
