When I started learning how to code, I told myself that if I ever landed a role in tech that I would consider it a privilege to share my journey & what I've found helpful along the way. After all, I've been so encouraged by the stories of others who've made the career change!

That's why I'm so grateful to @bookercodes from @scrimba and @BekahHW & @danieltott from @VirtualCoffeeIO for inviting me to share my story on their podcasts! These 2 communities have been an integral part of my journey! πŸ‘‡πŸ½ scrimba.com/podcast/from-phd… virtualcoffee.io/podcast/040…

Asking for a friend: Does anyone know of an open source edtech project participating in Hacktoberfest? Or do you know of a good way to search for that type of project? In case it's relevant, PERN (PostgreSQL, Express, React, and Node) is ideal.

Working more in the codebase at my job and I am loving it! Picking up all kinds of cool git and terminal tricks from pairing w/ other devs. Plus, I get to use Postman for work now! Who knew I'd be getting all giddy about APIs & databases when I first started my coding journey πŸ˜„

I truly appreciate the outpouring of well wishes I've received here & it's seriously amazing to feel this level of support carry over into my working environment. I'm so ready to give back in any way I can because I know I could not have made this transition without COMMUNITY!

I'm doing a Open Source / @github walkthrough today for @VirtualCoffeeIO members at noon ET! What's a @github feature you love or that you learned about recently that you think I should cover?

I always look forward to @benmvp 's informative threads! This one is all about different ways to copy an array in JavaScript, including a look at some commonly used array methods. Great overview!
In JS we usually shallow clone an array so that we can mutate it w/o affecting the original. Wanna see 8️⃣ different ways to copy an array? Of course you do! πŸŽ‰ 1️⃣ for loop Create a new empty array, manually loop over the source array, & push into that new array /thread πŸ‘‡πŸΎπŸ§΅
