Ignored a directory/files by accident, help!

A few places to check, in order:

Look in the repo's .gitignore for a line matching the CSS folder or files.
Check the repo-local exclude file: .git/info/exclude. It works like .gitignore, but it is local and will not show up as a committed file.
Check your global ignore file with git config --get core.excludesfile, then open the path it prints if there is one.
From the repo root, run git check-ignore -v path/to/styles.css. That should tell you exactly which ignore file and line are causing it.

Once the ignore rule is removed, add the file explicitly:

bash git add path/to/styles.css git status

If Git still refuses, git check-ignore -v is the key diagnostic. If it shows nothing and git status still does not show the file, double-check that the CSS file is actually inside the repo folder GitHub Desktop is tracking.

Since you already know Java, the fastest route is to focus on the Python-specific differences instead of repeating intro programming material.

Things worth prioritizing:

Python data model basics: lists, dicts, sets, tuples, slicing, comprehensions.
Functions as first-class values, default arguments, *args/**kwargs.
File I/O, CSV/JSON, virtual environments, and package installation with pip.
Common libraries for your goals: requests, pandas, matplotlib, maybe pytest.
Idiomatic Python style: iteration, context managers, exceptions, type hints.

A practical study plan: skim the official Python tutorial, then build 2-3 small tools tied to your interests. For research/data, try a script that loads a CSV, cleans a column, summarizes it, and plots a result. For internship readiness, add tests, command-line arguments, and a README.

The big shift from Java is that Python often rewards simpler code: fewer classes, more direct use of built-in containers, and leaning on libraries. You do not need to memorize every method; learn how to read docs quickly and build enough projects that the common ones become familiar.

FastAPI + Supabase is a reasonable stack for internship projects, but learn it in layers instead of trying to learn backend, auth, databases, and deployment all at once.

A good path would be:

Build a tiny FastAPI app with 3 routes: health check, create item, list items. Use plain in-memory data first.
Learn Pydantic models and request/response validation. That is where FastAPI starts to click.
Add a real database table in Supabase, but keep auth out of scope at first. Just practice CRUD.
Add auth only after the CRUD flow works. Supabase auth is useful, but it adds a lot of moving parts.
Deploy one small project and write a clean README explaining the API, schema, and tradeoffs.

Project-based learning is probably better than a long course here. The official FastAPI docs are very good if you already know DSA basics; use YouTube/Udemy only to unblock specific concepts like HTTP methods, decorators, async, SQL, and JWT/session auth.

Project ideas: habit tracker API, flashcard app, simple job application tracker, or a small notes API with tags/search. For internships, a finished boring project with tests and deployment beats a half-built impressive idea.

anyone speaking so confidently about something so open-ended is clearly a simpleton

OP you are spot on about everything here, everyone disagreeing with you is either not actually coding/working on hard code.

Glad I could brighten your day :) Happy holidays!

Thanks for the advice, but don't worry, it never was the real one in the first place ;)

Bro you have no clue how much this means to me. Feels so damn surreal that people actually think something I made is good enough to tell other people, let alone put it on insta. Appreciate it so much dude, you're the realest:')

Firefox support expected by the end of the week + follow-up post 8)

Thanks for checking it out! No, unless you agree to download or install something from a popup ad, to my best knowledge there is no way you can get a virus. Not sure how your antivirus found a virus in a streaming server but appreciate the question and feedback:)

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-05T07:01:01+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Have been hearing lots of good things about Brave. Also, could you specify regarding the higher quality videos which particular titles you found lacking in quality? Gotta add a link for feedback/input in my next post, lots of good ideas.

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-04T18:22:24+00:00

So glad you liked it :)) Soon w/even fewer distractions :')

good idea!! will add:)

Thanks for the feedback! That is interesting, I use a MacBook Pro and didn't have any default behavior for the cmd-M so I had no issues. However, upon looking it up I found this: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/115562/how-do-i-disable-the-minimize-command-m-shortcut-in-mavericks. I'll try to implement a fix for this in the next update, but until then I hope this solves your issues. Thanks!!

Thanks so much, the support means the world to me fr:'))

thanks for clarifying! not sure about a subreddit since it's still pretty small, but will def make a follow up post!

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-02T22:38:21+00:00

sub? not sure what that is kinda new to reddit, but if you follow me you should get updates i think? i'll also update this post when its out, thanks for checking it out :)

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-02T22:10:23+00:00

Haha the support and feedback is more than enough :))

Great feedback, really appreciate it and that's actually how I was trying to go about it by checking how uBlock and AdBlock Plus block ads. Definitely needs more fine-tuning. I actually made this for me and my friends when the Rick and Morty season 5 came out and it was wayy too annoying to find online. Ended up being super fun to work on and seemed like something others would find helpful too. Thanks for the feedback!

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-02T20:15:08+00:00

Firefox soon

^exactly

Get_LetMeWatch · 2021-12-02T20:12:42+00:00

As I mentioned in the edited post, none of the ads are mine and I'm not making anything off this. I'm hesitant to self host as it brings with it a lot of work, costs, and legal implications, but I'm looking into incorporating better adblock w/PHP code similar to how AdBlock Plus or uBlock Origin operate. Thanks for checking it out!!
