Hey y'all!
Hope everybody enjoys being part of this community!
Quick tip: you can save any articles you like to your reading list by clicking on the bookmark emoji located directly beneath the heart and unicorn emojis. 🙌
If you have any questions about the community, platform mechanics, etc. don't hesitate to ask!
btw what is unicorn emoji?
That's the thing. We don't know 🤯😬. However, you can choose to interpret it in any way you like.
Oooo I like the idea of interpreting how ya wanna! Thanks for chiming in!
Excellent question!
It's actually the same as the heart emoji, but just skinned differently. Both emojis are meant to be "likes" so if you leave a unicorn on somebody's post, you're basically saying that you liked their post. Behind the scenes, both the unicorn and heart are weighted the same and have the effect of making an article more likely to be seen by folks in their personal feed. This isn't the only thing that effects an article's visibility, but it's a contributing factor. If you're curious about all the contributing factors at play in the feed, then check out this post by the awesome @jeremyf. 🙌
So, you may be wondering why does DEV have 2 emoji reactions that do the same thing? To which I say, stop asking questions! 😝 Kidding... it's really just meant to be a bit of fun. We thought having a unicorn reaction felt kind of silly, kind of mysterious (clearly, haha), and that it added a bit of personality to the site.
However, we have been asking ourselves recently if we should keep this reaction, modify it in some way so that it's different, or drop it completely. Feedback most definitely welcome!
👏
dev.to/binyamin/unicorns-on-dev-167b I hope this answers your question, Have a good day 😊
A like emoji I guess
Haha, your guess is on point! That's pretty much what it is.
unicorns🦄 are amazing mythical creatures and everyone likes amazing creatures 😊
Haha, I fully agree with this statement.
Thanks for tips 🙏
You are very welcome!!
Dear, everyone.
Now I am learning AI to become an expert in this field. My goal is become a machine engineer from great AI team and contribute change this world better. :)
Main content of AI learning come from Coursera (Andrew's deep learning specialization) and Kaggle. I had already earn 12 certificates on Kaggle and finished 4 courses on Coursera. If there is better materials related AI, please recommend them.
I am happy being one of this great dev community and hope to learn from everyone.
If you are interested in my AI journey and want to go with me, I am always open to you. Of course, If you any offer for job or open source contribution, it's really helpful for me.

Hello!
I don't know what I'm doing here, but I'm trying to learn how to code (I did some courses on codecademy, Swift for example, and currently, I'm refreshing my R knowledge to use it for my master's thesis.
I'm in my late 30s, a university student and from Germany. I'm interested in app development and testing. Hopefully, I'll get a job in testing when I've finished university. Or something with UX/UI.
I like reading, writing, daily walks (I sound like an old lady. 😉 I'm also into knitting and sewing als well as drawing ... so I have a lot of creative hobbies).
Heyo!
Hope that ya find this community helpful in your learning journey. 🙌
Since you're interested in UX/UI sorta stuff, I'd recommend following #ux (and #ui though there aren't quite as many posts!) so ya can get more of this type of content! And, we got #r as well, but not loads of posts yet. You could certainly post under the tag though! 😀
As for your hobbies, they sound dope to me! I'm a daily walker as well, haha! Love taking little strolls by the river with my dog.
Well, again hope ya find this site helpful and best of luck on your master's thesis!
