Happy #Hacktoberfest! 🎉 Tiny Troves of Dev Wisdom is now open for contributions. I've tailored the repo to welcome non-code contributions, making it perfect for beginners. github.com/TarynMcMillan/…

@YagmanX Same!

Every once in a while I decide to treat myself to a little shopping trip.... Then after about half an hour I realise I hate crowds, go for a quiet coffee and return home empty handed and exhausted 😅

Practicing my screenshot skills today with Snagit. Any other content creators have experience with this tool?

@GameDevTV Majora's mask is my all-time favourite!

🗡️🛡️ On this day in 2000, "The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask" graced N64 screens in the USA, bringing with it unforgettable adventures! 🌟 Let's take a trip down memory lane. Which Zelda game is your all time favourite? #Zelda #GamingMemories #N64 #Nintendo

@SerenaRue2 @WomenWhoCode Good luck! 😊

Starting my first #hackathon today 😳 I feel nowhere near ready, but I will figure it out as I go. No matter what, I'm sure I'll learn a lot! #100devs #wegoget #letsgo #WomenWhoCode @WomenWhoCode #amomwhocodes #momswhocode

We're about 1/3 of the way through #Hacktoberfest! If you're looking to make a no-code contribution to a repo, Tiny Troves of Dev Wisdom is looking for more contributors! github.com/TarynMcMillan/…

Just added my #Hacktoberfest @holopin_ badge to my GitHub! Excited to try out maintaining this year with a little beginner-friendly repo I've been working on.

@YagmanX Hi Yasmin. We haven't met but it takes guts to be vulnerable and I admire your strength. ❤️

Vulnerable tweet: I've been struggling to achieve anything these past couple months, I have nightmares about making games, I cry when I sit at the computer. Work feels impossible & a part of me wants to give up & focus on the small things like cooking & watching my plants grow.

@shookcodes @ossia @freeCodeCamp Those are awesome accomplishments!

I have such a hard time celebrating my own accomplishments, but this year I've made a few: - First person interviewed by @ossia for the @freeCodeCamp podcast - Reviewer of O'Reilly technical book - Learned Vue + Nuxt + Typescript - Designing a large school's Student Information System - Working on a passion project to build a @prismicio adapter for Astro - Given multiple talks at Dallas/Fort Worth Meetups I might be quiet or not talk about technical things here (because anytime I say anything tech-related the mansplainers come out in swarms), but I've also accomplished so much this year, and I'm proud of it.

Tuesday: that unsung hero of the workweek. Not as daunting as Monday, not as celebrated as Friday, but it's the quiet opportunity to make things happen.

Just like well-written code, kindness in development is essential. Be kind to your colleagues, clients, and yourself. Collaboration and empathy lead to better software and a happier tech community. ❤️

@VirtualCoffeeIO Planning on participating! I have some ideas for smaller-scope Unity projects that might work for this. I want to keep things simple since game dev projects can get complex very quickly.

Q1. The season of open source is creeping closer, with Preptember (Sept) and then Hacktoberfest (Oct.). Are you planning on participating? If yes, what are your goals? If not, why not? What questions do you have? What support do you want during that time? #VirtualCoffeeIO

@SerenaRue2 @rev_rue Congrats!!

A few days apart, but a world of difference ❤️ @rev_rue #focusonfamily #newbaby #maternityleave #Priorities #momswhocode #WomenWhoCode #lifechanges #100devs

I’m looking for a software developer role. I’ve got experience in React, Material UI, SCSS, Node, Express, Tailwind, AWS, and more!

@SerenaRue2 Sending you good vibes!

This week has been quite the rollercoaster, with lots of ups and downs, especially in the last few days. 🎢 So many good spots, but some really rough spots too. Here's hoping that next week is more even-keel.

@shookcodes Love when that happens!

Went out for a walk and came back and figured out the bug I was working on. yessss

@RobinVanina I was in grad school studying Early Modern History.

What did you do before you went into #GameDev ? All the different career backgrounds that most game devs have are so amazing. Many (including myself) even without former education in this area. Would love to learn more about your background below 👇

@DThompsonDev Not bad at all. Been thinking about trying something like this.

AI CAN MAKE TAKE YOUR PICTURES TO THE NEXT LEVEL! Don't have a professional headshot? Use AI! Was experimenting with this, literally using selfies at the gym just to give it the worst possible source material and this is what it came up with. Do you think these look good? 🤔

@SerenaRue2 Thank you ❤️ it's been two weeks of bad summer colds for everyone in my fam. Hoping we're almost through it though.

@TarynWritesCode I've had those weeks too! Just get through it the best you can, if you need help or support please reach out!

This is definitely going to be one of those weeks where work life and parenting life don't get along. 😬
