Mon
- Made openwhen look good on mobile thanks to @Priya and @Jesse and fixed some bugs
Tues
- thank you @_Laura for your advice on looking for summer swe internships!
- Half-baked demos
- A very nice chat with @Russell
- Leetle with @Bradley
Weds
- thank you again @_Laura
- Made my GitHub profile as recruiting-ready as I could (added readme’s to my git repo, added a profile readme)
- Same for LinkedIn, personal website, resume
Realized I might be getting rejected from PhD internships because I’m competing against students who are actually currently enrolled and more senior PhD students. And I might be getting rejected from undergrad internships because I’m no longer in undergrad and also the undergrad internship recruiting season was last autumn haha
Thurs
- Pairing on 2 Leetles with @Daniel . Today’s was very difficult and I felt validated that we both found it difficult. Learned a few great python debugging tips:
input()
function: wait take input from stdin and can use as breakpoints haha,-i
flag: to run scripts in a repl - Tried implementing a more robust user flow for opening letters and realized my code is just too much of a mess to work with so switched to cleaning up the code – plus I want the code to be recruiting-ready anyway. Got about halfway through!
Fri
- Paired with @Sherry on a few Leetles (including queue reconstruction by height!!!!! ft. @Nolen)
- Finished cleaning up Open When code so that I could finally start fixing the user flow for opening letters.
