Where you at git

I'm trying to clone project files from azure and am running into all sorts of brick walls. One day, I will master setting up new projects but that day is not today -_-

Problem of the day: I can't find my git.exe(git executable). It's driving me nuts. I'm pretty sure it was all set up properly when I was doing the python course months ago but lookey here. Nothing works. It took me awhile to even figure out how to look for the git.exe file. Finally happened upon a comment online suggesting using the git command.

My weekends and half the summer were taken up caring for my young stepdaughter. I was completely exhausted by the end of the bootcamp and I didn't know if I could do more. Learning to program is HARD. You need to be fully focused. I am fortunate because I di...

Shortcuts

 I saw one of my colleagues do something magical. He automatically fixed the alignment of student code on Visual Studio with just 1 little keyboard shortcut. Ctrl-k, followed by D. Holding down Ctrl the entire time Sometimes shortcuts really do work and make your life better!   

Inserting data from CSV into Postgres table with Python

I've been looking into how to insert data from a CSV file into a Postgres Table with code. Turns out it's pretty simple and straightforward. I personally prefer doing it in code than with a command, but I'm not sure what is more common in the industry.  So now I should be able to load data from a CSV file into a Postgres table to create a REST API. The next step is trying to figure out how to convert that data into JSON format. 🤔
