It's that time of the week again. So wonderful devs, what did you learn this week? It could be programming tips, career advice etc.
Feel free to comment with what you learnt and/or reference your TIL post to give it some more exposure.

Summarize a concept that is new to you.
And remember, if something you learnt was a big win for you, then you know where to drop it as well.👇👇🏻👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾👇🏿

.I started reading about Cloudinary and it's API. I'm considering it for a project I'm starting.
Nice! You should give Colby Fayock a follow. They’re super helpful and work at Cloudinary!
thanks so much for the shoutout Nick!
Polymorph relationships in Laravel. My mind was on fire.
I have learned to "forgive" from the book "think like a book" chapter 2 written by Jay Shetty

This week I learned about TDD using Golang, I learned how to write test files in Golang using packages like Testify, GoSqlMock and GoMock.
Learning more about the firebase ecosystem and the products they have to offer for my application
That's great
My classmates and I refreshed Java knowledge in the previous class. It's nice to use Java to study design patterns.
Submitted my #atlashackathon project - so I learned as much React as I needed to as fast as I could. Nearly killed me but I learned a sooo much.
Let's go!
This week , I learnt that it is quite important to organise little workshops and 'hackathons' for development teams ! Teams are diverse 🤓🤠👩🌾🤡👩🦳🙇♂️ , some stay motivated and thorough, others have too much going on in their lives.
People of all ages are getting into development , but many of them don't have the technical experience or the C.S. perspectives to fit into the really demanding jobs.
These really demanding jobs require more than mere competence : they challenge your problem-solving skills🔹️ and your capacity for collaboration🔻. Managers are always presenting progress reports to their boards and facing all kinds of objections ⚠️🟨🧱🧱🟥.
Various compromises will be made in order to deliver on schedule, and some months later users discover lots of random crickets 'n buggies! 🦗🐜☘🦗🌱
👉General courses are fine at the outset - however newbies still need to experience following schedules and adapting to new sorts of workflows (i.e. Summer of Code , issues raised with Github Repos).
hacking on my second web3 project at buildspace 🤩
Noice!
Today I learn that PHP is hard
Learning something can take time and that’s OK.
PHP was developed right at the dawn of dial-up Internet, back in the day where only ethernet cables transmitted server data. So yeah , it has chapters and chapters of literals , arrays, regexes and input evals!
