I was bored to write my college assignment so I wrote a tool that lets you turn text content to an image that looks like habdwriting😂

saurabhdaware / text-to-handwriting

So your teacher asked you to upload written assignments? Hate writing assigments? This tool will help you convert your text to handwriting xD

This is what the output looks like right now

Waylon Walker • Mar 27 '20

impressive output

Saurabh Daware 🌻 • Mar 27 '20

Thank you, Waylon🌻

Het Shah • Mar 27 '20 • Edited

Saurabh Daware 🌻 • Mar 27 '20

My win this week revolved around fitness, as I successfully maintained my commitment to a consistent workout routine. Despite the challenges and busy schedule, I managed to hit the gym regularly and make progress towards my fitness goals. This achievement not only boosted my physical well-being but also provided a sense of accomplishment, reminding me of the positive impact that dedication to fitness can have on overall health and happiness

I just had a virtual on-site final interview and I think I crushed it! Each interview with this company and each new person I’ve met has made me more and more excited about the possibility of working there.

I’ll hear back next week. 🤞🏼❤️

Doaa Mahely • Mar 27 '20

Best of luck Victoria!

Harrison Campbell • Mar 30 '20

Harrison Campbell • Apr 2 '20

Nice! I worked for the Nailers a few years back for an internship, stayed for a very entertaining 8 months. NorCal guy and East Coast winters do not mix haha.

Tori Crawford • Apr 2 '20

This is crazy! I also interned for the Nailers as an athletic trainer during the 2014-15 season.

Harrison Campbell • Apr 2 '20

I was there a year before you actually 13-14 season! Small world haha.

Good luck, Victoria! I'm rooting for you.

I finally built the covid-19 tracker that I was planning for a long long time!
Also wrote an article about it here:
dev.to/comscience/i-built-a-covid-... 😀

Roelof Jan Elsinga • Mar 27 '20 • Edited

I released two major updates for my CMS and with that I was able to finish the upgrade for my portfolio. The best thing: the rss feed now includes the entire article as HTML. This means I no longer have to edit the post on this platform and can just post right away. Less work for me 😁

Saad • Mar 28 '20

Here in Bangladesh, there's no centralized data portal or access to track general mass users. The bigger community don't really use updated versions of Android too which makes it harder to develop applications for end-users. Plus they don't really comprehend videos from Vox, Kurzgesagt animations, WHO instructions - none of them were in the native language. Lack of content in native language about COVID-19 created mass misinformation - which is why I took an initiative, developed a full-stack app, web, backend, data portal for the govt authority to check & cover up all the COVID-19 cases in real-time. Slack CEO & Flickr Co-Founder Stewart made free upgrades to my slack workspace too, a lot of others offered to help & collab - leading me to fast-track the development in just 7 days. It was a big win for me this week I'd say, was unsure if I could pull this off with just 2 other devs but I did. <3

I made this in Figma, and after this thinking about creating Dribbble.

I also signed up for a virtual Meetup as a speaker 🔥

I am discovering more about Android system API functions from AOSP (Android Open Source Project) and have the opportunity to use them for a client that develops their own Android devices.
Currently making our own "startup wizard" that lets a user set some basic device settings on first boot (language, wifi, timezone, ...).

Heiker • Mar 27 '20

Finally found the energy to put some on my content on its own blog. The site is live now, here.

I was so happy to find a static site generator with multi-language support and code syntax highlight already built-in.

Alexis Tacnet • Mar 27 '20

I just launched my first project landing page (strio.co) with some friends ! We even won an award for our pitch today, I am really proud of us.

Silvestar Bistrović • Mar 28 '20 • Edited

Good job!
Do you need help with CSS? There are some issues, especially on mobile view.

Alexis Tacnet • Mar 28 '20

Thanks ! I created this website with Gatsby and Tailwind CSS, I tried to make it mobile friendly (with the Chrome devtools). What are those issues ?

Silvestar Bistrović • Mar 28 '20

Vertical scroll on mobile. I think the footer is the issue.

Alexis Tacnet • Mar 29 '20

I don't have the issue on my mobile, it scrolls smoothly and I don't see any glitch :/

This week I worked to develop my own site icodeeveryday.com/ . This is just 3 days young and I hope it will grow. I am re-learning about the cookie, local storage, session storage and session in detail.
The review is the best thing I need at the moment to raise traffic and improve quality.
Here is the screenshot of the landing page:

Got my first API with PostgreSQL DB on AWS RDS up and running.
Learned about and implemented PG Promise to connect and query a DB using raw SQL files.
Migrated to a remote Test DB using knex-migrate-sql-file by ozum
Set up and Seeded the same DB using raw SQL files via knex by vitaly-t
Set up testing of the API on the RDS instance with mocha / chai to run with an npm script.

I learned how to combine kedro catalogs and submitted it as a feature request.

[KED-1512] Ability to add catalogs together #302

WaylonWalker commented on Mar 26, 2020

Description

I am would like to request the ability to add two DataCatalog objects together to get the addition of the two. This will improve the ability to reuse pipelines and catalogs from existing projects.

Example

Let's say I already have two DataCatalogs loaded in c1 and c2. I would like the ability to add them together.

full_catalog = c1 + c2

Context

I am trying to combine pipelines from two different projects. Kedro natively gives me the ability to add the pipelines together, but not the DataCatalog

Possible Implementation

Create a new DataCatalog using dictionary unpacking from the individual DataCatalogs. In the case of duplicates the second catalog will take preference.

def __add__(self, other):
   DataCatalog({**self.__dict__['_data_sets'], **other.__dict__['_data_sets']})
