I passed a quiz on C# in LinkedIn, being in the top 5% out of about 930k participants. I took the quiz after only getting started on C#. Actually I just wanted to know what topics/materials that would be asked in the quiz. I was lucky, because I had understood some subjects being asked like properties, indexers, events in class, namespace as well as delegate.

At the same day, though, without preparation, but with the same purpose, I failed in other quizzes like :

  • OOP, due to advance concepts like design pattern which covers factory, adapter and SOLID principles
  • REST, due to my lack of knowledge in specific things of OAuth, including on deciding which grant types to use for certain cases.
  • Java, because the quiz asked specific practical things like Map, generic List that I haven't covered yet But, alright, at least I know what topics/materials that will be asked in the quiz for each of those subjects.

This was actually last week but I got nominated for 5 noonies. For Java, Debugging, tutorials, coding skills and monitoring.

Also got invited to be a keynote speaker at a conference but had to turn it down since I have a flight that day. Which is a win/lose situation.

Still in holidays (see previous weekly retro)

I spent week in Massif Central mountains in France, 3 hours away from my place.

Great place, wonderful landscape, good weather, some hiking, a lot of rest, no TV.

Lurked dev.to via forem on Android, I think I'm addicted ๐Ÿ˜…
