What was your win this week?

I finally got my Unity 3D object to run and controller 3rd perspective camera smoothly and with less code. Thanks to WFH, I'm learning so much.

Thanks to new Input System Package (copy pasted) and replaced Input with Input controls component. -> docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/C...

moveAction = playerInput.actions["Move"]

...
void Update() {
Vector2 input = moveAction.ReadValue<Vector2>();
...

Made Indian sweets and savouries!

I have crossed total 9000 views on my blogs on devto and that close to cross 10k views🚀

Really a great moment for me🤩

Just reached a 100 day streak of GitHub contributions!

Overcoming my nerves when pair programming with a senior developer. Don't have to do that too often. As I'm usually the person offering to pair.

Good session though. Had to automate a manual task of editing archived file content and re-archiving the files and then batch publishing via npm.

Not sure why I felt nervous. Maybe it was a brief moment of anxiety. Feeling as though I didn't know what to program. Even though I've written so many different programs in the past. And live coded many times before.

An hour later the scripts were finished. Just before the end of the working day.

I learned that this is undefined behavior in C++:

struct Foo{};
int main() {
  Foo* p = nullptr;
  delete p; // okay
  delete p; // undefined behavior
}

To make it well defined behavior:

struct Foo{};
int main() {
  Foo* p = nullptr;
  delete p; // okay
  p = nullptr;
  delete p; // okay
  // ... but hereafter p is once again read inaccessible.
}

I officially found out this week that I was awarded the PSF Community Service Awards, and I accepted it (after picking my jaw off the ground)! 🥰 python.org/community/awards/psf-aw...

I've just started my coding journey this week, that's actually a big win to me! Let's check my commitment to learn coding: dev.to/oreckc/i-ve-just-started-my....

Am challenging myself to write more, so posted my first article to dev.to.

My changes to Azure Service Bus Terraform module were merged and released and are now being used in our CI/CD pipelines!

I wrote my first Dev.to blog post
dev.to/yousufejazahmad/easiest-way...

Posted a lot of articles in a short space of time and all of them had great engagement.

Setup my blog and published first two articles. In case JavaScript, problem solving, algorithms etc. interest you, feel free to have a peek. Pretty sure you won't be disappointed ;)
