Math skills can occasionally be useful, but I don’t see it as a dealbreaker.

The good thing about being good with math is that it usually means you’re a good problem solver, and problem solving is an important skill for programming. But the reverse isn’t necessarily true. You can be good at problem solving but still be bad at math.

I would say if you’re struggling with the programming courses, then maybe look somewhere else. Otherwise, go ahead.

Python is truly a mess when Docker is considered a solution.

Nothing comes close to Perl’s abuse of global variables. Oh you called this function? Take a guess which global variables it will use.

Unfortunately it’s the exciting politics that gets all the attention. Democrats likely lost because they’re just too boring.

Are people forgetting his Dijon Mustard scandal? Unforgivable.

I love it!

I consider it to be the best “detective” game ever made. Other detective games, like Phoenix Wright, can easily be brute forced. Just exhaust all dialogue options, and in the case of game over, just repeat all the correct answers until you’re back on track.

The system where correct answers are revealed after five correct guesses is genius. It discourages brute forcing, while maintaining a short feedback loop so the player knows they’re making progress. I wish more games continued on this idea.

Only thing I don’t like about it is that I can only play it for the first time once. It has almost no replay value.

70s and 80s had the threat of Cold War.

Matrix was right that 90s was peak.

He’s pro-Russia. When he takes office, it won’t be long until Ukraine loses. It sends a signal to Russia that they can occupy any land they want.

He doesn’t believe in climate change. I’m afraid we can’t afford another 4 years of inaction. Those storms in southern US and the current flooding in Spain? Get used to it. It’s going to be even more frequent.

As a Swede this is not the news I wanted to wake up to. Let’s just pray Trump is going to spend all these four years on the golf course as much as possible.

I don’t think that makes things any better.

He has repeatedly stated during the campaign that he wants to use military action on people with opposing views (or “enemies from within” as he calls it). If that isn’t fascism, then I don’t know what is.

Not only are our heads in constant motion. Our eyes are also always in motion. We’re constantly, quickly and accurately shifting our attention to different points in our vision.
