Picking up on where I left off in my project and I suspected my code wasn't correct.
I was trying to clear notes and it was not working.
Realized I was using <Textarea> and is an uncontrolled component.
By using useState, I can control the notes state
😅😂

AI is beginning to use design systems exactly as documented. Gaps in examples, states & constraints lead directly to unpredictable UI output.
Join Brad Frost + Dominic Nguyen in a live session to cover what makes a system agent-ready.

My favvv Leetcode to come back to and almost forgot what a for loop is.
I wanted to do 'for in in range(nums)', but this wouldn't work since range function takes in a number and not a list
It's slowly coming back.

Slowly getting back into algos.
This was a bit tricky.
Using the test examples, I was able to walk through how the output were determined.
Would you have solved it differently?

Implementing algo in real life
My niece takes forever to get ready. Turns out her clothes are scattered in her cabinet.
To save time, we moved clothes to specific levels:
1: pants
2: shirts
3: socks, etc
by doing this, she has O(1) time of finding clothes in the morning

I love a good If-Else statements, but one way I'd like to optimize if-else statement is using an object
Any other ways we can optimize this?

I uploaded a CSV file containing names of cemeteries, the amount, if it is full day service, guests, and if we can cook there
Using @matplotlib.org, I visualized the cemeteries from most expensive to least expensive to get a picture of price differences

Learning 'Open The Lock' with @neetcode1.bsky.social this morning
Initially, I thought to check every possible combo, but when I walked through Navdeep's Youtube tutorial, I can implement BFS to get a shorter total number of turns.

After learning and completing a new algo, I love to reset it.
I'm always amazed of what I retained and it helps me understand what is happening with the data as I traverse line by line.
Do you reset your code as well?
