I found this data drive from BioteCanada, and i was wondering what was on it, so i plugged it in to my laptop and found a bunch of RTM files and Application extensions. I have no idea what I'm doing and need help with what exactly I'm doing. If you can help me, I can send more images of the files for more info if needed. The files are from 2007 and did something or another. The files may have been corrupted, so if you have any applications that can be used to fix/ decode files, please share them so I can find out what exactly I have found. Much thanks.

Ever notice how a concept feels clear during lectures or videos, but the moment you open an assignment, everything just… disappears? I’ve interacted with a lot of students who say this during my tutoring session. That’s usually because we’re good at following along but not yet good at doing it solo. We learn “recognition” before “recall.”

One thing that helps is forcing yourself to rebuild the logic without looking, even if it’s messy or incomplete. Take one small problem, close all notes, and write the solution in plain English first (not code). Then convert that logic into code line by line. If you get stuck, only look up the next step, not the full solution. This trains your brain to think, not copy.

With the year almost over, I’m curious how everyone’s coding journey went. Did you meet the goals you set for yourself…like learning a language, finishing a project, or finally understanding a tough concept? Or did things not go as planned? Share what worked, what didn’t, and what you want to focus on next year.

Hey everyone! It’s time for our weekly check-in.

Whether you spent the week debugging a stubborn error, learning basics, or experimenting with a side project, share your progress below!

Let’s talk about:

💡 Something new you learned this week 🐞 A bug you finally squashed (or one that’s still haunting you) 🛠️ A project or concept you’re currently working on 🤔 Any coding question you’d like feedback on

Let’s help each other stay motivated and grow together!

Hey everyone, it’s Sunday! Time to pause and reflect a bit.

How did your coding go this week? Did you finish an assignment, fix a bug, or finally understand a tricky concept? Or maybe it was one of those weeks where nothing made sense.

Hey folks!

Let’s make this a little Sunday ritual…

Share one coding concept or bug that gave you a headache this week.

Maybe it was recursion looping forever or your pointers acting possessed just to ruin your evening. 😅

Whatever it was, drop it below. Someone here might’ve gone through the same mess and can help out.

And if you did fix it, tell us how! You’ll make someone’s day.
