Hi Ben,

Good initiative.

I did a post about coding best practices that can be used no matter the programming language you're using.

A lot of the time, developers want to learn new languages, did a lot of stuff, but don't spend much time trying to understand good principles or maybe just they don't have enough guidelines.

Hope It helps.

For anyone, I wrote more content, if you want to check it out, just visit my dev.to profile.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is one of the leading technologies of recent time and it is making a lot of buzz with models like GPT-3 and BERT(which used for google search). A new model DALL-E was released a few days ago by Open AI which is used to generate images from text. In this post, I have described about Python libraries you must know to start learning about NLP this year.

I write mostly about NLP so you can follow me and read more NLP related content there.

Last year I had a 'thought' (not even a goal) to write one article a week, consistently throughout the year. Guess what I did it!

Here's what my last week article looks like:

Here I tell you why consistency is important and what it can do to you as a person be it about your career or life. Lots of straight truths are there.

Hope you all will connect after reading this.

Remembering which method to use on a Javascript array was difficult when I was learning. This post really helped me to remember the methods, what they do, what they return, etc and the visuals are a big part of that.

Savvas Stephanides has some great posts on how to fix particular accessibility mistakes that have helped make me more conscious of how I can improve.

I'll plug the latest:

This one, because it's so different from most other posts (it's about astronomy, analyzed/simulated through computer code):

I loved this article and really thought it should have gotten more attention - such a great way to use a current event to raise our awareness of accessibility!

This post which I recently wrote down is a special one for me because I:

  • achieved something which is not already available
  • got to know that D3.js is just awesome if you wanna customize something for your own need

Though this post didn't receive the traction, I feel one doesn't write here for recognitions but to help grow the community 😇

This one is mine on the white labeling application because I remember how difficult it was to do it before, and how much easier it is now with CSS variables.
