I think folks saying you don't need math are right. But if you are having trouble with college algebra you might have trouble with CS. Or the teacher is bad.

Math really builds on itself at the stage where you are. Without good algebra calculus isn't going to work well.

I'd try a different teacher. Online courses or repeating the course with another professor or something.

If I went as close as I could get to Antarctica without crossing any water, I would be in Chile. If I could cross the Darian Gap.

I've seen some good folks in the past few years. Like That Dang Dad and F.D Signifier. But I'm just on YouTube. I'm sure I miss lots of hate.

If the patient wants the pics then go for it! I have some pictures half way through a root canal that are awesome.

I'm late to this, but could a kind soul explain what I'm missing out on by using urxvt? I settled on it years ago and haven't changed anything.

While we were developing common sense, she studied the blade.

I certainly get lag in my pixels but no disconnects.

I've learned a lot by breaking things. By making mistakes and watching other people make mistakes. I've writing some blog posts that make me look real smart.

But mostly just bang code together until it works. Run tests and perf stuff until it looks good. It's time. I have the time to write it up. And check back on what was really happening.

But I still mostly learn by suffering.

I just have to say "tastes like c" is a visceral way to say it. I approve.

I remember it being small probes, big earth mounted pushing laser, and not stopping at the destination.

 

I've always loved this list of sci-fi books. The 2000s web design compells me.

A while ago I tried to read the ones I hadn't. It was a lovely tour. My biggest surprise was enjoying Childhood's End.
