Hey programmers! Just wanted to let you know about an awesome podcast I found called "Tech Is The New Black." If you're looking for some motivation and inspiration, give it a shot – I think you'll really like it. Check it out!

Am I the only one 🤔 or are there people like me who are using ChatGPT as a kindergarten teacher ? Let me explain 🗣… I always get stuck with some kind of error/bug … oh my god , I hate that part, it's like getting roasted by a computer . But here comes my lazy personality . I always try to understand the problem by myself , but sometimes I really find myself having a hard time understanding what is going on with the code . So guess what I'll do… I give the error message to ChatGPT 🤝…

Some of you guys are saying… what is so surprising about it? We all do that always… but wait, I didn't tell you the main part… (drum roll 🥁) I'll paste the code and tell ChatGPT to explain the error like I'm explaining it to a 10-year-old kid …

Voilà 🎉, and that way, dude… I'll gain my coding wisdom , 'cause I know nobody is going to understand some kind of bug or programming concept better than me… and dear programmers , let me tell you this—don't hesitate to do what I did… just throw your pride and learn complex concepts with ice cream and lollipop madness . I hope that'll help a lot—thanks !

I sometimes feel like I'm really living up to my username, "tech nerd" 🤓. It's funny how just two years ago, when I picked that name, I never imagined I'd get so into this stuff. But now, coding is on my mind all the time . Whether I'm in the bathroom or lying in bed , I'm thinking about coding. Even when I'm hanging out with my friends , all I talk about is coding. They're probably like, "Doesn't this guy have anything else to say?" 🤷‍♂️

I don't know why, but it's like I'm pushing myself hard to get really good at coding . But in the process, I'm realizing that I'm changing a bit to keep a balance with who I am . Trying to be awesome at coding and super outgoing at the same time is a bit tough.

I'm curious what you all think about this 🤔. Since most of the people I talk to are into coding too , I'm guessing you've dealt with this too.

guys here is a recommendation channel from my buddy check it out.

trust me the day you decided to become a programmer you decided to become the part of this madness . ‼️🤓

🚀 Crushing Imposter Syndrome & Nailing Dunning-Kruger: A Coder's Tale! 🤖

🤔 Ever felt like a coding ninja one day, and then a coding noob the next? Yup, that's Imposter Syndrome messing with your brain gym! Learning code is like flexing your brain muscles. 💪

🧐 Surprise! Coders can get tricked by the Dunning-Kruger effect too. Some newbies think they're coding kings when they're just starting, while some coding champs doubt their awesomeness thanks to Imposter Syndrome. It's like a brainy rollercoaster! 🎢

📊 Guess what? Around 70% of folks battle Imposter Syndrome. Crazy, right? But here's the secret sauce: own your progress. High-five your wins, and if you're feeling lost in code land, ask for help – we're all in this loop together!

🌟 So, whether you're rocking codes or wrestling doubts, remember: Imposter Syndrome and Dunning-Kruger are like sidekicks in your coder's adventure. Embrace the journey, celebrate your wins, and keep coding on, you awesome human of the virtual world!

👋 Hey yo sup developers!

Today ..... let's talk about a common stereotype we face as programmers. You know the one - when people assume we can fix anything electronic! 🛠🔌 It's like saying, "Hey, you code, so you must be a tech wizard, right?"

Sure, we're tech-savvy, but being a programmer doesn't mean we're automatic gadget gurus. Programming is a skill that requires time and dedication to learn and master. We thrive on coding challenges and debugging code, not necessarily troubleshooting your phone charger. 😅

So, next time someone asks you to fix their device, say "u better get the hell out of ma face or i will hack in to your computer/phone and send your weird photos to your X.😂

... anyways, Let's break those stereotypes and focus on what we do best

Stay coding! 💡👨‍💻

Hey devs! Let's talk lo-fi. Staying focused while coding can be tough. Bugs, errors, and complex concepts can get frustrating. Here's my trick: I'm a huge fan of listening to lo-fi during coding sessions. The soothing sounds help me relax and concentrate fully. Sometimes I get so engrossed that I'm in the zone, tackling tasks with all I've got. Even if I start with hesitation, lo-fi turns it around.

Want to give it a shot? Look up various lo-fi genres online, on platforms like Spotify or YouTube. But those pesky Spotify ads and YouTube distractions can be annoying. That's why I recommend lofi.co. I've been using it; it's fantastic. You can customize themes for day and night, add tranquil bird sounds, even integrate your favorite Spotify lo-fi tracks. Tons of cool features to explore.

Stay coding

Almost every game on the planet use random function from plotting the coordinates of random zombies or enemy on 3d game to simpler guessing games many of 'em use it .... Am also Sure you used it many times....but for today let's pause and dig a little bit in to how .... How is Random function working? Can we say it is true random or is there some sort of pattern? if there is a pattern can we figure it out ?

One of my dormmate recently reached out to me and asked me if there is any way we can guess the possible 3 numbers out of 20 on keno game(gambling). After doing some research on the game I proved my hypothesis of this game built using random function. So I asked my self how this function works ... Here was my research result... the random function most of us using isn't true random, it's is just random enough that we can't compute and guess the pattern.

»»»» i will break it down with in the next blog if u wanna here about it you can join my channel »»»»»

### and by the way feel free to do your own research.

sorry for revealing our secret😁

I just finished watching a series called "The Playlist," which is based on the real-life story of Daniel Ek and the rise of Spotify, the biggest streaming service in the music industry.

This show taught me a ton about technology, business, law, partnerships, and more. If you enjoyed movies like "The Social Network" and TV series like "Silicon Valley," I highly recommend giving it a watch.
