Ignorant people often fall into one of two categories: the uneducated who question nothing, and the well-educated who also question nothing, especially if it comes from an 'educated' source.
Both ends of the spectrum lack critical thinking and display ignorance by not…
So addicted to
#learningtocode
😱I had to check out of my hotel to catch a flight and all I want to do is find a place I can just pull out my laptop and get into it.😅😭 thankfully,
@Codecademy
has the practice app to keep me going.

Day 2
#100DaysOfCode
WOW at all the support. THANK YOU!
Today was my introduction to CSS. I’m currently doing the FS Dev course. I’m not sure what direction I’m going in with this yet but I’m excited.
How’s your journey going?
#womenintech
#LearnToCode
I regret to inform myself that I will be switching out my sexy morning coffee with disappointing tea.
Let’s see how well I code without happiness… and yes IT IS that DRAMATIC! 😭🤣
I did it! I managed to squeeze in an hour of coding at the airport. Day 4 of
#100DaysOfCode
🎉
Today was fun, learning visual rules of CSS. 🎨
I’ve also downloaded two
#AI
related podcasts to listen to on my flight to keep me inspired. ✈️

Day 9 of
#100DaysOfCode
.
I didn’t get through as much as I wanted to but I reviewed concepts and played around with float and clear in CSS.
All progress big or small is a win. Just keep showing up.
What’s your win for today?

Day 8 of
#100DaysOfCode
👀
I dived into putting what I have been learning into practice. It's still a WIP but I learned A LOT.
Here's part of it, I'll release a live v tomorrow. I'm already an introverted lone 🐺 so now that I have
#coding
, I'll never see daylight again.
Day 7 of
#100DaysOfCode
😱😱😱
One whole week of coding daily w
@Codecademy
Today was reviewing what I have learnt so far with
#html
and
#css
.
I’m going to dive into a beginner build soon. Any suggestions? 🙏
Day 11 of
#100DaysOfCode
I played around with Dev Tools, checking out how it all works. I’m in the process still of building my site.
Also, how epic is Twitter! 2 weeks strong on here. Everyone on FB and Insta thinks I’ve disappeared off the plant. Found my new home.
Day 10
#100DaysOfCode
Learning
#CSS
properties rn. Also realised I need to start my coding in the morning instead of diving in at night as my productivity fades. 😴 All about optimisation.
When’s your most productive time?

✅ CSS Colours / Typography
I really want to post an exciting update but we just aren’t there yet. One day at the time.
In other news, I made my first YouTube video today. 👀
#WomenInTech
#LearnToCode
Once in a blue moon, I drag myself away from my computer, peel myself out of my track pants and actually take a shower… 🤣
…dressing up is an extremely rare occasion
I had to do a quick check to see what day I was on. 👀 Day 6 of
#100DaysOfCode
Today was reviewing & practising The Box Model in Dev Tools.
I also made a commitment today to go all in on
#AI
and
#Coding
. When I say all in, I mean all in. I don't do things in halves. 😉
Day 16/17
#100DaysOfCode
Covered quite a lot!
✅ Links, buttons, affordances, signifiers, clickability.
✅ Built a cheat-sheet using what I learnt in improved CSS styling and typography.
Now, it’s time to dive into AI updates. What did I miss?
#WomenInTech
Following
@mreflow
tutorial, I created my own version of Martin Haerlins viral video.
I didn’t have time for perfecting the video or spending time getting better iterations, but you get the idea.
I have an AI tool addiction 🤫
Day 12
#100DaysOfCode
Learning about command lines and navigating. I found this part a little grueling but I think that's because all I want to do rn is play with new
#AI
tools. 😅
One day in AI world accumulates months' worth of news! 😳
#WomenInTech
#LearnToCode
#AIAddict
Okay, I've decided to start my
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
from scratch. Last time, I bit off more than I could chew. This time, I have a system & schedule where I can fit coding into my busy day.
One thing I won't do is quit.
DAY ONE / I spent an hour today reviewing all of the basics
Day 20/22
#100DaysOfCode
✅ Building a style sheet guide using CSS and HTML
Developers: how did you decide which path you wanted to go down? I think I am more back-end than front-end. How did you decide?
#womenintech
Day 13/14
#100DaysOfCode
There are not enough hours in a day. 😱Yesterday I was reviewing command lines and practicing on the
@Codecademy
app as there wasn’t a lot of spare time. Today, I’ve started on improved
#CSS
to make my work extra 😍😏
#womenintech
I've been wanting to create a YT channel for
#AI
&
#Tech
for a while. Tonight I've finally done it. I need a few subscribers to kick me off so would you pretty please come & follow me 😉
AND the answer is dark mode... always dark mode.
#WomenInTech
In little hands, rests tomorrow's seed
From which we pray new peace will breed
For in their eyes, the dawn does wake
And with their smiles, the anger breaks
What will it take, to clear the stone?
To raise a world the child has sown?
What will it take, for us to learn
Old…
Day 25/26
#100DaysOfCode
Today I created a wireframe in Figma for an app I’m creating through
@Codecademy
I went deeper into Swift, which im loving. 👩💻 📱
I also turned ChatGPT into my maths tutor. 🧮
The last few days I’ve been so busy and full on that I missed my days of code. 😞 Do I start again or keep going? 🤔
I started learning Swift today which brings me to Day 24 of
#100DaysOfCode
if I’m still counting.
And yes, I have decided to go down the iOS path for now 🍎
31/32
#100DaysOfCode
✅ I put my SwiftUI learnings to the test and started to build a quiz app.
Finally, I’ll have something to show for my 100 day challenge 😂
New YouTube video!

What is your number 1 tip for leaning to code? And, when was your first aha moment when it all started to make sense?
I think I have aha moments and then I end up back at a WTF moment 🫣
Trying to wrap my head around getters, setters, willset, didset etc

#100DaysOfSwiftUI
Day 38-40
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
Libraries, Frameworks, Structures and Access Control.
Oh, and learning through trial and error about keeping things in scope 😂 most of my errors are because I put the code in the wrong place 🫣
“AI is outsourcing our brains” 👀 🧠
I’ve got to honestly say, I’ve been able to process & digest far more information thanks to
#AI
. Even the very skill of
#prompting
starts off a cognitive thinking process. There are real concerns, for sure, but brain reduction ain’t one.
NEW VIDEO! Who says life with

I don’t want to brag but I had a cold shower this morning & it’s so cold outside today that my car was covered in ice…💅
So… I kinda identify as a successful person now 👀
Day 8 of the
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
🙌 I'm in a bit of a learner's loop. I've covered Swift fundamentals many times through various training sources and I'm just a little scared to jump off the edge and start building.

Socialism is the first stage of the worldwide transition to communism. She doesn’t even hide that she’s a socialist. How did people not get it? She’s was tearing apart democracy right in front of us

#100DaysOfCode
Trying to get Loops to land. I always find after learning with
@Codecademy
, it helps to reinforce what I’ve learned by watching a tutorial by
@CodeWithChris
My nightly routine. 😎
It seems the general population are too afraid of AI to even try it?! I’m getting so many DMS on FB and Insta about this, including asking why I have decided to “sell out to evil” for promoting AI 😂🤦♀️
Dreaming is the first step to creating. The fact that we're envisioning AI possibilities beyond our current reach shows we're ready to shape the future, not just witness it. 👀

I’m back and I’m back strong!
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
Functions, functions and more functions. I got it straight away!
Then to make sure I really get it, I reinforce my learning with
@CodeWithChris
who makes it super easy to digest 👏
So I downloaded Playground yesterday to test my Swift knowledge and I’ve forgotten what I learned so quickly?! How did you retain what you learnt?
Day 7
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
#learntocode
Explain your day in one sentence. I'll start...
One second I'm opening Xcode in the morning, and the next thing I know, it's pitch dark outside and it's bedtime.
Day 15-19
#100DaysOfSwiftUI
It feels good when I can say each day I have been able to sit down to code for at least a few hours.
As well as working on two apps and learning the challenges of SwiftUI, I have also been learning more about classes, inheritance, protocols,…
Day 34/35
#100DaysOfCode
Still running through Arrays, Loops, & Sets in
#Swift
.
Worked through Caeser's Cipher task with
@chrislaupama
because he needed the ... not me.
😂👀😂 (thank you!)
A few pennies dropped today.
Day 14
Who knew trying learn how to hide the Navigation Stack back button and replace it with a custom button would take that long 👀
Thank you to the contributors at Stack Overflow

We are creators of our reality and collectively, what we believe, we will usher in.
This victory is with the people. I believe in humanities goodness and our innate intelligence.
Although it may be a bumpy ride, we win this.
Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday, Kim.
