I have been tracking Idalia.
I have family in Tampa, but it looks like it is moving more to north.
Looks like CAT 3.
Hope you are spared a lot of hassle. Nail it all down.

thanks, we've been putting everything up that isn't nailed down.
No water to be had, gas lines are terrible but we've been through this many times.
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

looks like you are enough inland to avoid direct storm surge damage, but wind is the enemy.
we will be rooting for you.

Looks like it's going to go right over us, hopefully it will have calmed down a bit when it reaches here.
We have a lot of large trees on the property and that is my biggest fear.

Stay safe. We live about 30 miles from Daytona so we’re not expecting very much from it but we are expecting that we will lose power. The kicker is that we just had a new whole house generator installed last Thursday. The electrical part is done but the natural gas line is not. It’s supposed to be installed today but it won’t be hooked up to the generator until after the inspections are done. We were so close! Just hoping we don’t ever get a repeat of 2004 when we had 4 hurricanes in one month.

I did say earlier that it's an unenviable task. It's such a chore.
But,
documenting my code forces me to review it. Just writing out how to use it uncovers areas for improvement.
I've added several critical features to my UIX library as I've set about documenting it. I also shored up some function names that were out of step with my conventions.

I had a University Professor who used to say "If you can articulate your problem, and narrate it to a friend, then the solution will strike to you in an intuitional flash". I feel that documentation is akin to this.

I once explained to a new boss how parameter passing works in a compiler we were doing. Midway through explaining, I noticed a bug, ran off to create a work item to fix.

does your code go through a Code Review process where you are not the one reviewing your code?
|
|

Unfortunately this code I'm working on presently does not, because I don't have the resources for it. It's a personal endeavor and I am presently the only contributor, though I'd welcome others.
I do have some people that use it, so it has undergone some informal use case testing and review in that respect but that is all.
I'd love to be able to change that.

Review on my code is typically done by me, and as I’m trying to fall asleep. That’s when the “Oh bubblegum!” moment happens.

I a new person and coding it’s new and it difficult any tips .

Gosh, I might be the worst person in the lounge to ask at the moment, since I've been coding since 1986. It's hard for me to remember the parts that people struggle with these days. It has been so long since I learned to code.
I started with an easy language. In my case Applesoft BASIC, but that is a dead language and I wouldn't bother.
Python is supposed to be easyish to use. There are tutorials on geeksforgeeks.com and tutorialspoint.com that can help you do specific things.
Really you should try to code something and when you get stuck, ask by going to the "quick answers" menu, and then "Ask a Question"

Pick a language - I'd personally recommend C# as it forces you to correct syntax errors before you can run code, unlike Python or PHP.
Then get a course, or a book and follow it from beginning to end, doing every exercise.
This may also help: How to Write Code to Solve a Problem, A Beginner's Guide[^] - it gives you a technique to get you started on a problem.

And don't start with an IDE. Start with a basic text editor until you get a little bit of the hang of it. IDE's can do too much for you.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I'd disagree with that, I think.
Yes, an IDE does too much for you sometimes, but that's offset by having the debugger integrated into the dev environment - so "early stage developers" are more likely to find and hopefully use it. And debugging is hard when you get started, so anything that helps them to fix their code means they learn faster and better.
We do learn a heck of a lot more from mistakes than successes!

Ok, I concede the use of a debugger. Point taken.
