Hello,

Welcome to the 19th Episode of Weekly Dev Journal. Here you will get some useful resources, interesting articles, and my learnings in the programming world.

Learnings:

1 - Coding:

That's my coding time this week.

This week's coding time was 23 Hours but 5 hours weren't counted as I code on another laptop.

This week, I completed My project that was pending for a month. That was SnapStock, a website inspired by Pinterest & Unsplash.

One thing that was very interesting in this project was detecting adult or explicit content in images I implemented in this project. There are many other features that I have implemented in the website & I am writing a complete article on it. The next article will be on it (Maybe because I am too lazy 😁).

In case, you are interested in code, here is the GitHub repo link:

2 - Some Random Thoughts:

Weeks ago, I wasn't happy with my progress as I was wasting a lot of time thinking a lot, and doing nothing & I wanted to change it to build or do something that I wanted to do. I wanted to do something but didn't know what to do 🤔.

Maybe you know that feeling (that feeling is horrible 😫), when there's something inside you that doesn't happy with you because you are not doing the right thing you should do to get your dream life. When you want to change something but don't know how you will change it.

Well, that was weeks ago, & I think I am getting back on track.

I think I should make a plan so that I would not get off track. As there's a long way to go.

3 - Practice, Practice, Practice:

I read a quote somewhere:

Fail Fast, Fail Early, Fail Often

Following this, I think I need to practice more and get the things out of my head and implement them instead of things kept in my head eating my brain 😅.

I need to spend more time Journalling and spitting words on pages to give some relaxation to my mind 🥴.

Maybe, you will see me implementing my silly ideas 😄, and you can always suggest or guide me to improve them.

Articles:

These are some articles that I have read and you can read too:

Improve your writing skills by writing docs of open source projects:

A good article on choosing between job and passion:

I found LangChain on YouTube and wanted to know more about it and found this article:
