100 Days of Code - #100DayOfCode - again?

For those not acquainted with this 100 days of code thingy, basically, it's a challenge where you code for 100 days straight, for at least one hour a day, you can take one day pause every 14 days and you need to share your progress publicly, for example by tweeting about it with the  #100DaysOfCode  hashtag. The rules are available  here . I started it about two and a half, maybe three years ago. Thus far I've finished five rounds of this challenge, which translated into five hundred days of coding for an hour daily on average. The digits might seem impressive, and one might think that after five hounded, or more, hours of coding that one would become a coding ninja.

Representing the OpenWeb Meetup

I spoke about my experiences while doing the #100DayOfCode challenge, about the challenge itself, what I've figured while doing it (about 240+ days of coding now) and about the mistakes I've made along the way and what I've learned from those mistakes. Das nerds  "Memes make a presentation interesting" - Aristotle More memes. And even more memes... I want to thank my home boy Adnan Kicin for the opportunity. 😊 So, if you are in Sarajevo come and join us , every last Tuesday in the month.  Thanks for readin...
