Hypothesis #1

Hypothesis #1 (A real blogpost about a hypothesis I have on neurodivergence) In the book "Talking to Strangers", the author Malcom Gladwell writes about stories of how we cannot truly decipher people's intent, especially strangers. When I read a book—and this goes for my whole life—I do not quite read it with the author's intent. Thing...

Learnings from what I think is the last day of this bootcamp

Day 3 (cont) I am appreciating the feedback from Codecademy guiding me on my progress and I can see some determination to achieve creeping in. I also appreciate that there are some new things I am learning, for example the "aria role" attribute in HTML. https://www.w3.org/TR/html-aria/#allowed-descendants-of-aria-roles Note: I have bee...

HTML & CSS bootcamp notes

Day 2 (cont) Okay, this bootcamp is forcing me to do things that I do not normally use, like in CSS position "static" or "relative", because I only found position "fixed" "sticky" "absolute" to be useful and either did not learn or totally amnesiased that there are more than those properties. I also learnt a bit more about box models, ...
