[Small] Is Not Nothing Your garden is not nothing. Your repaired jacket is not nothing. Your conversation with a neighbor about starting a seed library is not nothing. Small, consistent, local action is what change has always been made of. Every #sustainable choice helps. #gardner #agriculture #farmers #MakeADifference

Yesterday I was able to build a background changer web app. I was very happy even though I am sure it solves no problem in the industry, but atleast I learned about Event Listners and more about DOM manuplication. Seeing functions in action makes me smile #celebratingCheapAchievements #javaScript #webDev #programming

RE: https://mas.to/@sustainable_schools/116906216245195926 "If our children are not given a proper education and are not taught how to think and act for themselves, when they grow up and must act independently in the world, they will only reveal the fact that they were trained not responsible human beings...." Said Ellen G. White in a book called "Councils on Education", so please dont judge me if it sounds arrogant.

What keeps self learning developers on track so that they dont give up. The more JS complicates, I love to quit, but can't let go my dream Imagine sleeping at 23:00 and waking up at 3:00, but have nothing reasonable to present after 30 days apart from foundamentals. Do I have a weak memory? if yes, how can I overcome this? 1/2 #confused #javaScript #selfTeaching #motivation

@TommyTorty10@infosec.exchange What other language used for web dev could you recommend me after JS and a few its frameworks is/are mastered. Python?

@TommyTorty10@infosec.exchange this is really cool. I am self taught web dev, trying to understand systems from #freeCodeCamp , but JS is a very hard nut to crack, but hopefull I will be there soon. I am curious how you are using JS yet you never learnt it Greetings from Uganda, East Africa

@poetaster@mastodon.gamedev.place Sure happy to meet you. I tried a trombone, but it was booring, since I love leads. I play conets as well, since they share the fingerings

@PhoenixSerenity@beige.party could you please explain the main reason for the neg judging, I do the same as well because it hinders learning

One of my teachers who is now a multi millionaire told me not to celebrate cheap achievements, but I dont know why I end up disobeying: whenever I remember how tough the input was to achieve something, that he considers cheap I hereby rejoice for launching the first version of the @econetwork@mas.to website: You can have a look at the website via --->https://econetwork.ug Or simply read about my blog post about it: --->https://ethan.ug/posts/eyn-website/ Thanks to all individuals like @pacific06@mastodon.social and @juliangonggrijp@ieji.de who have already helped with reviews and also outlined area needing improvement.

@pacific06@mastodon.social told me that I look ugly with beards🧔, I also confirmed it after looking at my before pics, so no crime at all.

He asked me why I don’t shave them;

I replied I will shave after understanding #JavaScript upto a reasonable step.

An agreement was made, either I follow it, or he wins and fines me 5 dollars 💸

I just doubled my learning time to avoid being ugly for a long period of time.

How did you keep yourself motivated towards learning?

….. Continued thread 1/3

@aminorjourney@insearchofportlandia.com Thanks for tooting, together with @pacific06@mastodon.social and a few close friends, we also spent the weekend preparing our project garden. We did a few leveling, stone sorting and ploughing. https://mas.to/@ethan256/116515355699390618 We want to establish an edible demonstration food forest for the youths in our community On the other hand, I am very curious about what crops you grow, especially in dry seasons and droughts (little or no rain) #growYourOwn
