A Quick Git Rebase Tutorial

If there’s one thing you should know about me (technically), it’s that I love a good rebase. I loathe merge commits and a nice, linear commit history brings me joy. Since I am somehow leading my current team (who decided that was a good idea???), we are using rebase pretty heavily! I’ve found that people often get flustered with merge conflicts and wanted to do a quick tutorial covering merge conflicts and a basic rebase. Let me know what you think!

SQL is the best!

I gave a SQL tutorial at PyLadies Boston last night and it was pretty fun. We used sqlite3 (which is definitely my least favorite DBMS, but it does come installed on pretty much every Linux/Unix machine by default and is the default for Django so I decided it was the best tool for this particular job. Giving a tutorial on something I used daily and have used consistently for 7 years was a bit weird because I did forget a few things because it didn't even cross my mind that people wouldn't know. For example: I initially neglected to mention that every statement needs a semicolon at the end and that you can't mix quotes (no " with '). Consider that was the bulk of all the issues, I'm feeling pretty successful right now! Take a look at the full tutorial below and let me know what you think.
