my progress with HTML/CSS 🙂

This is one of the practice excercises when you first start on CodeAcademy. You start with a blank page and then each step, the page on the right (the HTML code but in Plan Text) and then the page on the left shows what it looks like on a webpage. I wanted to show y’all the code that I made on CodeAcademy:

I am actually super proud of myself because I did that all in one sitting and no, HTML is not difficult and I am not bragging, but I’m just proud of myself for re-learning a skill that has since evolved. I am now realizing it’s just one programming language out of several that I want to learn, and I’m going to learn. Always start with the basics, you should learn HTML/CSS first, and then move on to something like Python. I made the mistake of trying to jump directly into a Coursera course that was “Introduction to Machine Learning”, which I’m sure everyone who took that course probably knew it required not only the program itself, but a proficient knowledge of Python, which I had neither. I was extremely upset because I spent $50 so that I could get the certificate of completion that you are able to put on your LinkedIn profile and on your résumé because it’s an actual accredited certification; there are currently no college majors that are strictly AI or artificial intelligence based such as a Majors in Deep learning, Machine learning, Computer Vision, & NLP (Natural Language Processing) which are the 4 main compenents of Artificial Intelligence.

the lesson that this has all taught me is that you have to WALK before you can run, or in other words, you cannot become a Data Scientist overnight. I get SO hyper-focused on things that peak my interest and sometimes have unreasonable expectations because I think my past experience with such and such will make me ready and able to complete the task (like the Coursera “Intro to Machine Learning” course I took that I was SO lost in😭). I now am doing really well with the tips and advice I received on Threads so thank y’all 🙏🏼

🧨IF YOU ARE LEARNING HTML/CSS, HERE IS THE BEST CHEATSHEET EVER❤️

today, I was going to do the laundry that I have been procrastinating to do, I even decided I was going to wash my duvet cover. Yup, it was time and I was ready, finally. I started the washer, just as I always do, put in the detergent and some OxiClean, started my load and went about my business. about 5 minutes later, I hear what seems to be water just GUSHING through something and pouring on to the floor downstairs. I started screaming for my dad. I screamed, no answer. Panic set in even more. Why the hell wasn’t he answering my distressed call for help?! I scream “DAAADDDD, WHERE ARE YOU PLEASE HELP ME I NEED YOUR HELP” over and over until he wakes up, dashes out of his room, and looks at me like the house is on fire, I’m on fire, like everything IN SIGHT is on fire. I proceed to tell him what is happening, panicked, almost yelling. He then yells back “what the fuck is going on?!”. I point to the washer and he darts up the stairs and it’s fucking almost over the top now but has poured over and is leaking out through something. We eventually turned off the water source, unplugged the washer, and hauled it downstairs and outside.

Samsung Top Load with Impeller Washing Machine

We then looked at each other as if we simultaneously were thinking “Oh shit, we need a new washer now.”. Silence. I know how weird my dad is about the “measurements of the washer” and how it “has to be a certain depth or it won’t fit” in the space it’s made to fit in. ugh. not on my Bingo card today, Pops. I ended up buying a new washer, of course with my father’s money. I got THE BEST DEAL on this Samsung 4.5ft ft³ Top Load Washer with an Impeller and Vibration Reduction from Home Depot. This is not an affiliate link, just an amazing Mother’s Day deal where we saved $301.00 and it will be professionally delivered and installed. hallelujah, I am glad that my dad agreed with my first choice because I did not have the time to wait around for him to go window shopping, I STILL HAVE WET CLOTHES THAT WERE IN THERE !!! I guess I should go hang those on a clothes line or something.
