Me: Be curious, ask why something is the way it is, don’t accept status quo. Focus on quality over quantity, and veracity over velocity.
Them: I have this boss/lead/client/etc who just expects me to build and ship things fast, they won’t give me the time to learn and understand, and solve problems the right way.
Me: Sigh…
The problem is not them, it’s you.
You bought into the lie that understanding problems fully before solving them, and solving things properly and with quality… that all that was OPTIONAL nice-to-have. No… that IS the job.
Those who respond like this act like they’re uniquely in some kind of unusually high pressure, high velocity env, and so my advice sounds “nice” for everyone else but isn’t practical for them. But they’re not special/unique.
When bosses or clients say things like “Company ABC finished this in half the time you estimate. You need to speed up!”, you should explain why your timeline is realistic and needed.
It’s like if a teacher tells a student they have 1 week to finish a big assignment, but then another student says they could finish it in 2 days. The teacher wants the first student to stick to the original 1 week plan, instead of rushing in 2 days and making mistakes.
So the main point is when people challenge your timeline and say others were faster, you should explain your reasons for the timeline you originally presented and why changing it may cause problems. Stick to your well thought out plan, instead of speeding up to match what others have supposedly done before.

Never ever hesitate in investing money in yourself, investing I mean – developing your skills as a frontend developer ( hard skill, soft skill, life skill)
keep learning trending technologies so whenever there is a layoff or you are terminated from a job, you don’t have a fear of getting back another one.

There are two methods(GET and POST requests), default is to accept only GET requests. The HTTP protocol states that GET requests are those that return information to the client (the web browser in this case).POST requests are typically used when the browser submits form data to the server (in reality GET requests can also be used for this purpose, but it is not a recommended practice).
The “Method Not Allowed” error that the browser showed appears sometimes because the browser tried to send a POST request and the application was not configured to accept it. By providing the methods argument, you are telling which request methods should be accepted.
Hi, today I will tell you how to add a project to a Github repository using command-line/terminal.I’m assuming you have Github account ready. I am telling you two ways you can do this:
1) Initialize local repository as Github repository.
Create a new repository by clicking on “Add Repository” button.
On the next page, write the desired name of your repository next to your username. Click on the Public checkbox and then click Create Repository option. Now, you will be directed towards your new repository page.
Open your terminal. Change the current working directory to your local project(which already has the files you want to upload to GitHub). Initialize the local directory as a Git repository: git init.Add the files to your new local repository by typing the command: git add .
Commit the files that you’ve staged in your local repository by typing the command: git commit -m “first commit”.
At the top of your GitHub repository’s Quick Setup page, copy the remote repository URL. In Terminal, add the URL for the remote repository where your local repository will be pushed. Type the following command: git remote add originremote repository URL.
Now, finally git push origin master. You will be asked your Github’s username and password once entered, The files in the local project will be added to your Github repository online.
I have heard this name many times while surfing ubuntu forums, but really never cared what it was, until today. I was having a problem to copy files to my pendrive, then I found a solution :
Enter sudo nautilus in the terminal and it opened the files window and Voila! I was able to copy paste the files in my pendrive.
but when I closed that window same problem again(I haven’t found a solution to that but this temporary solution will work).
Before this problem, I was struggling to make my pc detect pendrive and renaming pendrive, but that is a topic of discussion for another day.
AirDroid
I was facing trouble in transferring files from my motoe4plus mobile to laptop through usb.
Then there came a solution AirDroid, you can wirelessly transfer your files to and fro between laptop and your mobile. You need to connect your mobile through ip address and give some app permissions, you are ready for file transfer.

4.ls (list) – list all the files and directories of the directory you are currently in and
5.ls -l will list all your files
6.touch newfile – easiest way to create new, empty files.
7.gedit/nano newfile to edit newfile
8.cp filelocation newlocation (copy) – copy a file from one location to a new one.
9.mv myfile newfile (move) – this command is moving files and folders.
10.man mycommand (user manual) – if don’t know how to use a command or if you just want to know more about it, use man command.
11.rm myfile (remove) – delete a file.
12.rmdir mydir (remove directory) – delete a directory, but this will only work if the directory is empty. If it isn’t and you still want to delete it, use rm -r mydir. I advise you to use this command very cautiously since you could end up deleting all or most of your files.Similarly rm -rf deletes all files,so use carefully.
