Upon actually working with excel, I’m done being pretentious about how it’s not programming. Tremendous respect goes to anyone who can do things with excel.

Happy Pride!
Alan Turing, one of the best computer scientists and programmers ever, was gay. The world lost him at a young age because he wasn’t treated with the kindness every human deserves.
Be nice to your fellow person. Be they a mathematical prodigy or an innominate stranger, everyone deserves to love and be loved.
Some articles about Turing:

Making a favicon for your website is one of the simple pleasures.
The more I work with front-end dev the more respect I have for UX designers. It takes 2 hours for me just to make sure that when the window resizes I don’t lose all functionality.
It’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of codeblr
Hiya! I've compiled a list of some of the currently active Tumblr blogs that are dedicated to all things coding and programming - this includes frontend dev, backend dev, web dev, game dev, etc. These are blogs I also follow (I try to follow as many as I can) and I like what they post, and I just wanted to share it with more people!
I will keep updating this post whenever a new blogger pops up or if some blogs deactivate - some of my fav blogs deactivated which is super sad since I loved seeing their coding posts on my dashboard! Anyways, onto the blogs!

It’s interesting how as I’ve progressed as a programmer the things I turn to for therapy have also progressed.
At first it was Scratch: after a span of getting frustrated by Python I would play with Scratch to at least make things that did what I wanted them to.
A little while later I wrote HTML and CSS to feel good about myself, because even when the default padding for <body> screws up your positioning there’s at least SOMETHING on the screen instead of an aggressive error message.
Now, it’s python. When Scheme or Haskell or C or Java or C# (less so C# - it’s actually pretty nice) or even Javascript are bothering me I can always turn to Python to feel better.
I wonder what it’ll be next? Maybe one day I’ll see C++ as my relief. Probably not. But maybe. Perhaps the final evolution of a programmer is when you can feel completely peaceful while writing Posix level C. Perhaps even assembly. Probably not. But perhaps.
C is a shot of American Rye (100 proof, bottled-in-bond)
Python is a Ramos Gin Fizz
Javascript is a bone-dry, dirty, vodka martini
React a Cosmopolitan
Angular an Appletini
Express an Espressotini (yea I say that instead of “espresso martini” because I find it more fun this way)
C# is a Sazerac with equal parts cognac and whiskey, and the person making it will HAVE to tell you how “a lot of people say it’s the first cocktail, but that’s not really true”
if i were a drink i’d be cherry vanilla coke
For those of you who are worried about AI taking over the world, this is the sentence produced by a “neural network” (a fancy name for my relative frequency matrix) after I had it read Beowulf, Galen, Guinea, Little Women, Mansfield Park, Peter Pan, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, A Tale of Two Cities, and The Call of the Wild. (All are freely available on Project Gutenberg in many filetypes including plain text, btw).
Want to go on record and say that the owner of this blog did, in fact, read dracula daily. Time and time again I tried to think of fun ways to relate it to programming. Yet time and time again I couldn’t bring myself to do it.
Not because there weren’t ways I could shoehorn in a weird analogy, but because I admired the characters too much to force one. Idk it just felt disrespectful to bring code into this.
Will happily disrespect Dracula, though. Got some real cobol energy from that dinosaur. Particularly the way he drains the life out of a lot of happy, wonderful people.
For those new to code culture, I encourage you to revisit the original post’s comment section numerous times over the coming weeks.
Because the battle over that choice for H is going to age like fine wine. Sure, sure, there’s a definitively right answer. But what power does definition hold in the face of emotion?
Maybe we can make a scavenger hunt out of it. Point values for potential phrases below:
{
“Describes” : 1, “Instructions” : 2, “Markup Language” : 3, “Haskell” : 5, “Turing Complete” : 8
}
The only statement I’ll go on record saying is that whichever side you take, I respect you and you’re safe here.
Learn alphabet with programming languages
Guess who jumped into his first React project without any planning and now continues to add features thereby creating a monstrosity of spaghetti code. THIS guy!
