I really really want to thank ChatGPT, not because it answers my questions but because of how it lets me explain my problem thoroughly so that I can get the best answer. And sometimes I get the solution while explaining it 😂. Isn't that something?

These are the Ethiopian tech channels I surf around in telegram. To be honest, it becomes tiring sometimes. Some are High School students, younger mnamn. you might sometimes get into an existential crisis 😂😂and also too motivated some other times. So use them wisely 😄.

😂😂 I want to thank ChatGPT for understanding my "I did it በዘነዘና" English and still gives me a solution

I don't think u guys remember this post where I yap about my skill issues 🤣🤣.

Anyways, to recap I wanted to build Unofficial [BDU-SIMS-API] (SIMS - Student Information Management System) where you can get Your general grade status for all the years, Your detail grade status for a specific semester and the remaining courses you have to take before you graduate.

I did it and surprisingly we used it when we were doing an assignment for our Mobile App Development course where we build an app called [BiT-Connect].

Today I got some time to do stuff and I am containerizing this API with Docker since Docker is on my 'Must Learn' list. I will post what I learned and also the result.

If I like a song, that is because it has some great hook or the melody is catchy or just I liked the mood. I am not a lyrics person. The voice is just an instrument playing notes to me. I always try to find melody in the singers voice not words.

Today is the first day of...


the rest of my life.

This quote applies well to developers:

I containerized the api, but I am stuck with one error.

Puppeteer, which is a scraping package for JS needs a chrome instance to work. So, I need a chrome instance in my docker container. I am currently figuring that out.

I get all my books from

- [Amharic]

- [English]

Solved the shit out of this chrome thing😂

I didn't listen to the lyrics, I read it in the comment section😂. And he mentions habeshan girls. What's going on??

The base image - [docker-puppeteer]
Guide - [some blog] fun fact this came as the first result when i search scraping using puppeteer and docker
The API - [BDU-SIMS-API] the latest is [dockerize] branch

On an unrelated note, I extended my PC's RAM to 20GB and now this thing is cruising 🔥🔥

"Boredom is a filter. Common ideas come before it. Uncommon ideas come after it. Sit with a project long enough to get bored with it, then sit a little more. The most useful insights bubble up after you get bored."

-- From James Clear's newsletter

From experience this thing is so true. Starting from writing essays back in the day when I was applying for unis to these days working on my projects I always get bored first before coming up with a great idea. But the problem is I reach for my phone before boredom hits. So that means no great idea.

Please, be free from any instant dopamine hit when working on important projects coz the first step is getting bored !!

Are you curious who discovered the first "Computer Bug" 🐞?

@GDGAddis

Even the name of the founder 😁

I noticed you can be more productive right after you wake up. Just get to it, no 🤳. Straight to your PC and do some work.

You need to trick your mind. Don't let it know your next move😁

working on something fun !!
