Despite knowing how to draw, my mind doesn't work like that either. I either use templates or take pieces of CSS (from w3, example sites) I want for specific parts of the site, adjust it how I want, and put it together like that. I prefer backend programming.

Yoooo does anybody know where to get hacked or full copies of Power BI and Cognos Analytics or is that even possible in this era like it was back in the golden age of 00 to 07

Anybody having css trouble you really gotta learn the css fundamentals, css box model, margin padding border, in-line vs block element etc elsewise it’s always gonna be a struggle! Once you learn them it all becomes less guesswork.
A lot of sites don’t put enough emphasis on learning the fundamentals that’s why a lot of people struggle with it imo

Microsoft is getting away from IE and is working on releasing their own Chromium based browser. If any of you have worked professionally on the front-end, you know all about the nightmare that was IE. Edge was better in many regards, but I'm looking forward to not having to completely neuter your site or worry about why everything is working great in every browser EXCEPT IE.
In regards to the front-end, it is only getting more and more time consuming and complicated as time goes on. The front end is no longer designers who have a touch of programming ability. It's more along the lines of building an app, but you have to make the html morph and look great in all kinds of different devices with responsive design. The upside to this vastly increased complexity is the increase in front-end salaries.

What do they use now Watson Analytics ...plenty of companies using IBM Cognos or IBM SPSS modeler i'm confused by the question plenty of these jobs pay 150k and aren't as stressful shyt Hyperion developers make 250k

Damn near every company I've worked for has moved away from the Cognos platform (UPS, The Home Depot, Emory, Deloitte, Comcast, Coca-Cola, Delta, etc). I got homies and family in the BI space as well and they've stated the same. Matter fact, a good amount of job offers I get is about migrating solutions out of Cognos to other techs. What I'm saying is Cognos is a dated technology in the BI/Analytics world.
EDIT: Also you have cats that can still pull 150k programming Cobol, C, and Fortran but those jobs are few and far between because companies have moved on to other languages for most general development.
Tableau, Qlik, SAS, Power BI, SSRS etc. >>> Cognos today
Hyperion is a very niche technology.

Fellas,
Not necessarily programming but does anyone have any links for a crash course in SQL? I have an interview coming up and I need to do as much prep as possible.
Lord willing, If I could nail this job then we talking over 60% increase in pay.
Side note: There have been some dudes eating in this IT field since the early 2010’s

I've had the most exhausting 3 round interview. First 2 rounds went okay, third round wasn't technical and dude looked like he wasn't in a good mood.
All a part of the filtering process right?
Corporate white privilege is a trip brehs....
But for real, the bolded is what I really have a problem with.
But I wouldn't want to work for a company with people like that anyway. If you can't put their personal issues aside when giving an impartial technical assessment (technical can mean anything), chances are I'm going to hate working for you whenever you start feeling the pressure. That same dude probably lashes out at his team when it's crunch time.
Keep applying breh. Remember, it's not just the job or work you're doing, but the pond you're working in. If the people around you are crappy, you're not going to grow at the rate you could.
Like I said in the thread I linked to, there's so much bs that goes on in the interviewing process.
