Day 4 — Bookmark Manger, Conditions in Code, and a Bit of Cloud

🌀 Day 4 — Still Sick, Still Shipping
Fever's still here, and so is the dust allergy. But I somehow managed to do quite a lot today — small wins, quiet focus, and a bit of Netflix in between. Not perfect, but the job got done.
✅ What I Did Today
💻 Coding
Learned Conditional Statements:
if
,else
,else if
in C++Same in Python with indentation and simplicity
Practiced with mini problems in both
🌐 Web Development
Built my first functional website:
— Bookmark MangerIt’s super simple, but it works — HTML, CSS, and JS combined
Feels good to have something that actually functions in the browser
☁️ NPTEL Cloud Computing Course
Started the first module
Just getting familiar with basics and terminology
📊 Research
Joined a small team working on Sentiment Analysis
Haven’t contributed anything yet — just observing and figuring things out
🎬 Reality Check
Also binged some Netflix.
No shame. Brain needed it.
🧠 Thoughts
It’s getting messy. Code, blog, research, course, health, life.
I’m trying to hold it all together.
Trying not to let everything blend into chaos — just moving one step at a time.
🔗 GitHub
Added
day4.cpp
andday4.py
with conditionalsPushed Bookside Manger to
web-dev-start/
Might clean it up later, but for now, it’s functional
📌 Tomorrow's Plan
Move to loops in Python and C++
Try making Bookside Manger more structured
Stick with the NPTEL course for at least 20–30 mins
Attend the first discussion for the research project (if energy allows)
Monetization — even 15 mins will count
That’s all for Day 4.
Not clean, not ideal — but still moving.
Logged and done.
