Excited to be at #reframeWIT today! Had some really inspiring talks already! I'm feeling more settled now that I have finished my panel! It was great to share about my experience career switching to software engineering & learning in public. #EmpoweringSuccess

Hey, I didn't get a follow notification, but I tried again and I could find you. One way to find someone is via the search bar like in the image. You can also check the thread I shared above for more tips & I have a similar tips thread pinned to my profile on Mastodon.

🧜 bio / profile Like w any other platform - it's good to do your profile setup first. This way as you find new people, they can tell if they want to follow you too. Similar to here, apart from you get max 4 fully customisable key-value pairs (e.g. use or links etc) 7/16
Screenshot of my own Mastodon profile. It has my avatar (smiling, photo of my face with a cartoony filter). My handle is on there ( @mxkoder@hachyderm.io ), a short text about me, and three key - valuefields with my pronouns, community, and tech stack.

I'm exploring @gitmindmap as a mindmapping tool to get my notes organised. I'm a very visual learner, so I was trying to find an easy to use tool with a free option. It seems good so far! I like that I can add notes & images on the free plan, which other tools limit.

Mixing colours together to make black is not as easy as it sounds! Apparently equal parts yellow, red & blue, we'll see.. 😅

This morning I've been learning about Gherkin, Cucumber and Pickles in BDD (behaviour driven development). They really do go all out with the naming! 😅 I prefer kovászos uborka Hungarian style (fermented).

Learned a lot at the @mcrjava meetup yesterday, with speaker @mraible ! Food for thought about the importance of thinking about the longevity of a tech stack when choosing: ❓️ will it be supported in the future? ❓️will it be possible to recruit people to maintain it?
