Learning is fun

python and coding in general can be frustrating and time consuming but imo, it is so much more fulfilling and worthwhile to put in the work and do something yourself so that you can understand how it works and eventually learn to go even further with the ideas you have! developing the skills to do what you want and more is an invaluable tool that you should never let AI take from you. sure it may give you an output close enough to what you want, but knowing how to code could help you improve it at the very least. not to mention credibility issues with AI

Learning how to code

Dudes in tech don’t want you to know that learning how to code can actually be super easy and fun. It opens up a whole new world of creative projects! It’s honestly wild how we’ve made STEM subjects feel like they’re way harder to master than others, or that they’re all just about cold logic while creative stuff is for “artsy” types. Learning to code reminded me so much of learning to play an instrument — if you just put in like 10 minutes a day, you’ll see progress fast. Plus, once you get the hang of the technical rules, there’s so much room for creativity.

learn python the hard way

i haven’t PERSONALLY taken this course, but my brother recommends and suggests it is worth the cost! i used to recommend codeacademy.com to people who wanted to learn programming, but my understanding is they have shifted away from a totally free model to having more content locked behind either a paywall or subscription, and i’m not sure i can actually rec paying for that content… but possibly worth checking out what is available for free! i linked their python course, but they also have some other introductory courses that walk you through different programming languages at a higher level.

luminous puffins!

The puffin is the latest addition to more than 180 known species—many of them sharks, corals, and other marine animals—that emit a luminous glow. The fact that so many marine animals biofluoresce "tells us organisms are using light in ways we don't even see," John Sparks, curator of fishes at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.

lower your expectations without lowering your standards

I read that happiness is when your expectations falls below the reality. A new mind project for April. Good prognosis.
