🎄 Another CS50 Milestone: Web Programming with Python and JavaScript! 🎄
Just in time for the holidays, I’ve earned my 4th CS50 certificate! 🎉 This course was another fantastic step in my learning journey, deepening my skills in web development.
Grateful for the knowledge, the projects, and the community that makes CS50 so special. Proud to add this to my collection and excited for what’s next in 2026!
Wishing everyone wonderful Holidays and a New Year filled with new achievements! 💻✨

Despite feeling exhausted after work, I went back to CS50 (after a week off). Took me several minutes to remember what the smeg I was doing, but after a couple of hours, had the solution submitted. I was driving myself crazy, but made it harder than it needed to he so 🤦🏻♂️.
Wednesday, I'll move on to the final project for Week 2, which seems pretty difficult, but we'll see.

Well, I'm pretty chuffed. After an absolute nightmare of it last week, I finally got back to the 2nd week problem for CS50 - Caesar cipher.
Took me 90 minutes and its submitted! What a difference a rest makes! Glad thats behind me. And I finished the notes for week 1 yesterday, so Wednesday I can move on to week 3! 🥳
Frustrating day on the coding front. Made a start on CS50 Week2 problem set after some surprisingly easy (ish) wins on the practice problems.
It. Was. A. Slog!
Things that should have been easy, took me hours to work out! I think I'm to used to more modern languages where concatenating a string is easy.
Still, its a work in progress and I won't give up. I think tomorrow, to give my head a break, I'll type up some notes.
Today I completed the first part CS50 week two challenges - scrabble. I knew how to do it, but my solution was a bit more convoluted than theirs. Still, I'll get that submitted tomorrow.
Tonight, I move on to book two of Brian Sanderson the Stormlight Archive. I had a little break with TP's The Last Continent, but want to get back to Roshar.
Finished Week 2 of CS50. And in their defence, the first mention of Arrays (outside the intro?) Was at 57 minutes, so apologies David.
The problem set for this week is using Arrays to do some cryptography which is fun. I _think_ I know the code I need, but we shall see.
Also, there's a CS50 puzzle day in London in a couple of weeks. It would be cool to go, but its at Meta's campus 🤮
Today, I am watching week 2 of CS50 about arrays. 1 hour in, and I'm yet to hear the term array, but OK.
I'm going to stick to a plan of coding and notes on a daily basis with a hope of finding a way out of my current job hell of applying for my job again at a pay cut.
Other options include abandoning coding and finding a new industry to dive into. My brother was in IT for 30 years and recently retrained as an EMT.
'Scuse the mess. I've got CS50 notes and LoFi Girl music mirrored on the TV, writing in org Roam in Spacemacs on my Linux Framework12 and a pomo going.
What other geek nonsense am I missing? 🤣

Nice long walk done. Now to do some coding notes and get ready for lecture 3 (Week 2) of CS50.
Cuppa and I'll be ready to go.
It was Q today at work and my colleague was snoring off a cold (thanks for coming in, pal).
So I did some CS50. Ironically, I found the actual Math problem (how many quartets, dimes nickels and peninnies do you need for X change?) A lot easier to program. I had the solution working and submitted in a couple of hours (opposed to my 12 hour Mario piramid debacle). So that's Week 1 completed! Now to write up the notes.
Well... 😮💨
That was a bitch! Took me all evening to finish the first problem set for CS50! I knew the logic, but could not work out the maths to write that logic.
I had to look up how to do the inverse to reverse engineer how to do it properly (I didn't want to cheat and find the answer), and finally got it submited.
I *still* don't understand it yet, but I'll come back to that.
Now to relax, read and sleep.
Today, I am starting CS50 Week 1. I haven't quite finished my notes for week 0, but they're near the end, so that's fine. Currently half way through the lecture on C, and really impressed how David makes understanding the language.
I'm not a compete neophyte in programming, but definitely thought of C as scary and complicated. I'm sure it is - deep down- but the core is pretty simple.
As several people suggested at the weekend, when I reached out for help, today I am starting CS50 from Harvard. I'm a little disappointed that alld of their "community" is on centralised and proprietary platforms like discord, Snapchat, tiktok and all the other hellholes, but not a massive surprise I guess.
Currently starting at week 0 (love it) talking about binary. Remembering a lot of stuff that had been buried.
Oh, and CS50 has *really* changed! So much different from my first go!
