I had a midterm today for one of my MSc subjects. It was an MCQ exam, but with multiple correct answers per question and negative marking for wrong answers. I find that format really weird, especially when there are 3 or 4 possible right choices. I'm just not used to it at all.
So far, I’ve been using CodeCamp as my tutor for learning Data Engineering. But yesterday, I realized that it wasn't as effective as I thought. I was just trying to go through the videos and practice tests to complete the sessions, rather than actually learning and retaining the material. So, I came up with my own roadmap to self teach using Claude and Gemini. Let’s see how it goes.
Just updated my blog. I added a few very cool features, and I love the new theme of my blog even though I copied it from someone else. I can't get enough of looking at how clean and simple the blog is now. Love this. Hoping to engage more on my blog from now on. 🤞
