#amlearning — Public Fediverse posts

RE: https://mastodon.social/@dabeaz/116374976164606800

Based on what @lindsey had to say about her experience in this course, I signed up. Starts next week and I'm already learning new Rust stuff. Hot diggity.

Coders of the fedi, lend me your advice:

Now that my coding apprenticeship is almost certainly torpedoed, I'm going to have to find _yet_ another way to become a coder. I'm not going to give up, if I have to do it on my own, so be it.

Advise me on your best coding courses that are reasonably priced. I'm looking at C/ C# / (?) Fairly lowish level languages to learn to get a broad understanding. Tia

Final update before the big launch next week:
My manager is back and has agreed I can do Python, so yay! Induction is next Wednesday and I'm nerveously excited. I wish I had my Framework 12 by then, but not going to happen. My borrowed Dell 5300 will have to suffice for now.

After (roughly) 15 years, I finally get to learn coding "properly" (not self taught or free course with no help or stupid expensive 6 year degree (all things I've tried)).

I've gained a whole new level of respect for printmakers who manage larger consistent editions.

I think I've got fifteen for my #rescueTransRescue project, and a huge stack of prints which I like, and do not match well enough.

I had to avoid screens for a bit yesterday, and one of my partners helpfully reminded me that #gelplate printing was a fine way to pass the time.

I finally started having some success transferring images, in this case ink brush doodlings on paper made their way to the plate, and then to my paper without it being by accident.

I love learning new science vocab, and this is a good one: "blobs."

When I read about Rust lifetimes they make sense. When I get helpful compiler messages telling me I should use them, they make no sense at all. It’s the difference between knowledge and experience. I have “knowledge” of lifetimes, but almost no experience with them. Consequently my skill level is minuscule. (1/2)

Got serious about #Learning #Spanish yesterday. Started out making #FlashCards using #Logseq's built-in capability, but what's up with the "You can run through the cards once a day" limitation?

Switched immediately to #Anki. Ah -- many good decks for language learning designed by others, free, easy to use, useful immediately.

(Also using podcasts, watching #StarTrek and #StarWars in Spanish, and finding a tutor for conversations.)

GeckoEdit.com is 3 years old today! I'm celebrating by curling up with my freshly delivered copy of Amy J Schneider's The Chicago Guide to Copyediting Fiction because I'm a big old nerd, she's awesome, and I've been waiting for it for aaages. This thing is worth its weight in gold. You can get digital copies now from Chicago Press, or preorder the paperback version, which comes out next month: https://bit.ly/3IeeOq7

Today I learned that there's an "air archive" where scientists can study air that was bottled up years or decades ago, so they can compare and contrast it with the air we have today.

@liztai Right. Yeah. So you are moving your reviews over to your website via Obsidian? What's PKM? (Sorry for all the questions.) #amlearning

Noun gender and number agreement throughout the sentence is a bitch. #amlearning #spanish

Silly #Esperanto word I'm hoping catches on:

poŝamiko : pocket friends.

Mi ŝhatas miajn poŝamikojn de Mastodon.

Words like "fromaĝĉipsoj" are why I find agglutinative languages so entertaining.

My acro partner has discovered a slew of new ways to torture me that she insists are some sort of diabolical training torture she calls "fun".

Expecting to make new weird noises in our clown video chats during the coming weeks.

It would seem that @ice has inspired this old dog to try and learn a new trick.
