Let's create Phineas using CSS in few simple steps😄

THREAD🧵

STEP 1. Create a head

create a triangle and rotate it so that it looks like a head

STEP 2. Create smile and ear

We have a pseudo elements in CSS, so we can create smile and ear using head::after and head::before

STEP 3. Create eyes

This is the most trickiest part because in order to make an eye we have to create

- One bigger white circle
- then a small black pupil inside white circle
- then a small white reflection in black pupil

Let's create a outer white circle first

STEP 3(I). Create a black pupil

We can create pupil using pseudo element

"I want to learn how to code, but have no idea where to begin."

I've been getting this question pretty frequently lately, and thought it was a good time to put together a thread to cover all the basics.

And here it is!

Instead of just throwing a few links at you, I first want to cover something much more fundamental: The *reason* you want to learn to code.

I've had to train a good number of developers in my time. The ones that succeeded had rock-solid, persistent motivations. Is that you?

Some good motivations for learning how to code:

* Enabling a career change
* Insatiable curiosity, eagerness to learn
* Frustration with inefficiency + desire to improve things
* Larger goals in mind, coding being a stepping stone

Some bad motivations for learning how to code:

* It seems popular
* Your friends/family have ideas for apps
* You want to make lots of money by sitting in front of a computer
* You bought an expensive MacBook and are struggling to justify the expense

For those, trade forex.

Motivation matters, because of the one thing that's universally true about coding: It's hard.

Depending on what you do, you may have to learn several languages at once. Tools constantly update. New approaches land in the market on an annual basis. You're constantly upskilling.

You are looking to get into Machine Learning? You most certainly can
Because I believe that if an above-average student like me was able to do it, you all certainly can as well

Here's how I went from knowing nothing about programming to someone working in Data Science👇

The path that I took wasn't the most optimal way to get a good grip on Machine Learning because...

when I started out, I knew nobody that worked or had knowledge of Data Science which made me try all sorts of different things that were not actually necessary.

I studied C programming as my first language during my freshman year in college. And before the start of my second year, I started learning python just because I knew C is not the way to go.
I learned it out of curiosity and I had no idea about Machine Learning at this point.

I did not learn python by courses but by books. I'll link all the resources at the end.
The approach I took was just to make the same kind of programs I made in C but just replacing the syntax with that of python and practised those.
Already knowing a language made it easier.

For Machine Learning, the first thing that I did was to join Andrew NG's course which really hit it off for me
I didn't have to have any idea about Machine Learning for the course. I completed that in almost a month and it gave me a good intuition of things and the flow of ML.
