[Pratama A. Sumirat]

Hello everyone,
I'm Tama from Indonesia. I knew DEV one or two years ago but I just joined now so hello again 👋
I'm a software engineer, mostly in JavaScript ecosystem (node, express, react, react native, etc), and I thrilled to learn something new (or dig dive to what I have learned)
I like to play games, Dota 2, FPS, or some RPG, but the last time I played around few months ago 😆
I currently in a battle with myself (lazy, procrastinate, kinda that stuff), and I want to like share or make documentation about things I learn then share it because teaching/sharing is also learning (and it'll improve my English 🇬🇧 (and also a plus for my portfolio as I'm targeting to get a new job 😄))

Thank you!

Hello! Nice to meet you)

I'm Sergey, CTO at Smartym Pro IT company. I have over 11 years of experience in software development. Here I write articles in my blog, covering topics such as tech trends, smart contracts, programming tips, and innovative digital solutions for business.

There are many ways to motivate yourself to perform the necessary tasks and achieve goals, for instance, tell everyone that you're going to make something. Thus, you will have to work as otherwise your friends and colleagues will learn you have failed.

This method is said to be one of the best ones.) You can also create posts on social networks like Instagram and Facebook about the set objectives and then share your progress.)

Blogging sure is the way to go. Thats pretty cool Sergey. You are already in the furure. #Web3.0 (You are working on Dapps)

Hi Sergey!

[Manyong'oments]

Awesome. You're on the right track. By teaching something you get to learn it twice.

hello how are you. i also want to be a software engineer like you

[Nikita Pristupchik]

Practicing English is great. I've founded the group in Telegram to practice with my colleagues, but as for now activity is pretty low, so I've decided to try something else. Namely, DEV.to. :)

[sydtactic sugar]

Welcome back, Tama! I've lurked on dev.to for a while, but I've finally joined.

😂 I'm so used to piping in dynamic text from the output of some command that it totally slipped my mind that static text can just be arguments.

I'd love to connect with you, feel free to reach out.

Thats awesome. 80 more days to go. If you feel like giving up, just use webflow.

[Margaret W.N]

I'll definitely check that out, never used webflow before

[Ashutosh]

Happy to have you here... I liked some of your work... I am here to create an online presence and improve my coding skills in the community.

Thanks

[Margaret W.N]

Thank you Ashutosh,

Let's connect🤝

[Daniel Yahel]

Hi Margaret, nice to e-meet you. how are you planing to document your learning journey? I plan to do the same and don't have any ideas yet

[Margaret W.N]

Hi Daniel, nice to meet you too. I write blogs on the concepts I'm learning/practicing and the errors i bump into together with the solutions that worked for me. Along the way i found it really useful to build a mini project because i get to learn and implement at the same time.

I hope that gives you an idea on what you can do.

[Daniel Yahel]

That surly helps, but, as a beginner I am not sure anybody will be interested in the silly mistakes I made in the beginning (e.g: I have never worked with MacOS before, and it took my few hours to understand how to use right click mouse... I am not stupid, but even the small challenges takes me time to overcome :) what do you think I should do?

[Margaret W.N]

1. As much as you are a beginner there's something you know that somebody else's doesn't or there's something you can explain better than anyone else. So yes there's someone out there would benefit from your posts .

2. The fact that you take time to understand something means that you are in a better position to explain it to someone who experiences the same. So why not write about it?

My advice would be if you choose to do this focus on documenting your growth (mistakes are part of growth) rather than writting post people are interested in.

[Daniel Yahel]

uploaded a short post, will be a continious story. Thanks for the support!

[Margaret W.N]

Congrats on taking the first step!!

You are welcome

[Felipe Ferreira da Silva]

Hello, everyone! 👋

I'm Felipe from Brazil. I'm a biologist, currently in my bioinformatics master, during my free time, I code in Rust and do some game development projects. I like to make illustrations and pixel art, too.

I'm planning to post about Rust and game development. Tutorials and progress on my projects. 😊

Nice to be part of the community!

I will be glad if you check it out. Good luck with your career!)

[Manyong'oments]

Thats pretty awesome. Are your game bio friendly? (pun intended)

[Mathew]

Hello Felipe!

Do you know if deep learning is popular with bioinformatics? I read a paper about it but wasn't sure if it was a well known technique in the field.

[Felipe Ferreira da Silva]

It is, but definitely not well estabilished, so there's space in the field for more people doing deep learning analysis!

[Kiraah (she/her)]

Hello Felipe,

Are your games related to your field of study at all? I feel like there is a lack of games where violence is either secondary or not an option. With the popularity of games only increasing I feel like there should be room for more genre and mechanical experimentation. Especially if combined with EdTech.

Also, I have always wanted to visit Brasil, I still hope to after The Rona is past.

Cheers!
Kiraah

I've worked on the back-end to interact with databases in SQL Server/MySQL/SQLite as well as front-end with Node.JS, Angular (for platforms such as Android) on a previous job.
Lately I've been migrating my website from Flask to Lektor (a static content management system that runs offline) and am working to build my portfolio/website.

Thanks for reading.
