Self-care.
I am terrible at explaining my code, despite knowing how & why it works.
Remembering the day. I thought yesterday was tuesday.
Yesterday was Tuesday.
I'm terrible at structuring stuff that are not code. I fail to structure my workflow, my day to day task (like folding clothes, dishes, etc...).
I'm terrible at remembering important date (heck, I even forgot my birthday almost each year).
But strangely, I'm not that bad I structuring software.
So much this. I have try countless times to be as perfectionist on this side of my life as I am with code but I just can't do it π
Remembering the order of the months. I basically always start at 1 and then sing-song my way up on my fingers. I flip March and May frequently. No idea how many days are in each month. I have tried to learn and put in some effort but just can't make it fit my brain properly.
Normally pretty decent at numbers and related activities. It's really weird and kind of annoying.
My son has the same issue! You arenβt alone!β€οΈπ
Any time someone says "monad" my brain instantly stops working.
Maths, definitely. That was the reason I put off my developing dreams when I was young. Maybe then it was really important (I am talking about 20 years ago, when I was 10).
But today I've realized Maths is really not that complicated or deep into Front-End so I decided to come back :D
Do you mean Mathbox.js ;-)
The article series of MathBox.js are outstanding.
I knew the theory of imaginary numbers, but It was amazing to look into the dynamic graphics and see them rotating.
I wish I would have such tools in the high school.
I wish i would have time to use MathBox.js or threejs to explore datasets.
If one map properly the datasets to the three dimensions, I almost sure that we can find many more relationships instantaneously, because the brain is prepared to work with spacial structure and note those relationships in real time.
You know? The cyberspace was born with the science fiction writer William Gibson.
The web is still very limited to the cyberspace described in Gibson's books. In the books the characters take a Virtual Reality set and connect to 3D words, the servers, the data, the avatars, ... everything was interacting in 3D.
I guess that in the years to come, the web will reach the Gibson dreams. And math would be very important for that.
Are we ready? ;-)
I appreciate your passion about Maths... I wish I could share it.
Exact same here π€
That's very conforming. Hehe.
I hear you! I'm great at problem solving, but don't ask me to split the cheque.
I'm good with CSS, and I frequently find myself helping others to fix broken CSS, but I can't explain how my solutions work. My explanation is usually "Um... It's just like this so that this go here and then like that so it that that other rule applies... Do you get it?"
I feel you π
Sitting down with someone to look at the code or debug. If I'm not prepared and have not looked at the code for at least a few minutes by myself beforehand, I have no idea what is going on.
That's a great soil to grow a magnificent impostor syndrome!
Relational databases. I honestly go for document and key-value stores often not because I think RDBs are ill suited for the job but because I don't want to deal with them.
aaaaah, you break my heart :P
It's not lack of will, it's lack of competence :p
What concepts you find hard? Maybe I can help.
In the meantime I think you can start here:
Everything you need to know about (Relational) Databases

I'm not saying relational DBs are super easy, but I think they are really important to know, even if you end up not using them :D
Same! I'm awful at SQL and RDBs are the bane of my existence
