This Is Not Like A Fully Completed Thought But Yk

Expecting Neurodivegents to work by Neurotypicals' methods is like pressing Windows shortcuts on a Macbook.

Iconic Things My Coding Professors Have Said (and it’s only day one)

“that sounds very hacky, but smart”

“i’m not sure where i’m going with this… its quite similiar to my life”

*Entire class and prof spends fifteen minutes trying to solve a problem before eventually giving up* “great work guys, that was some good debugging”

“is this a super big issue?” *longggg dramatic sigh* “… yes”.

Professor 1: “it’s still not working? um… okay, maybe you should… turn off your wifi and turn it back on again?"   Professor 2: "40 years of experience in networking and computing at its finest”

“whenever i’m doing my taxes, i never use the calculator app on my phone, i always just open up a notebook and use python and i think thats very brave of me”

“your life quality with improve when you use python 3 instead of python 2. your skin will improve and you’ll even sleep better”

“so this compiler doesn’t recognise cases, so if you’re really perverse, you could do Apple, aPple, apPle, appLe, applE, but if you do that then i’m going to kick you out”

“so, let’s give an example: "True = False”. Asides from causing the end of the world, much like dividing by 0, this will also cause an error"

“if you want to see my cat, i’ll show her. if you DON’T want to see my cat, too bad, cause I’m going to show you her anyway”

“today we will use three keywords: `if`, `else`, and their weird cousin `elif`.”

“if you want to type something else, like… uh, goodbye world? maybe? is that too dark? i think its too dark, so lets save that for later on in the year… by the way, have you been told about your exams yet?”

Professor : “is everything clear so far? shall i go faster?”   Literally EVERYONE: “no! slower!"   Professor: "Slower?! you can go slow when you’re dead, you won’t need python then!”

“you can’t use functions as your variable names. for example, you can’t call this number "if”. i mean i don’t know why you’d use that as your variable name to begin with, but i’m not here to question your life, i’m here to teach you python"

“it’s probably not the most efficient but its just what came out of me so we’re running with it”

we all know about the adhd hyper fixations that make you do one thing and one thing only for 3 days straight only for you to drink a sip of water and your brain's goes "nah, ion wike it anymore :("

but how about when you really wanna do something and you're so excited and then you start doing that thing but after literally 3 seconds of doing it it becomes so overwhelmingly boring that you... stop?

Ich glaube das schlimmste an der deutschen Übersetzung von Goncharov ist, dass sie es "Goncharov - Schüsse in Rom" genannt haben. Hallo?? Es gibt eine Szene die in Rom spielt. Eine.

The funniest thing about the original Goncharov post is that I have seen people do exhaustive amounts of research in order to discern that it's a misspelling/mistranslation of Martin Scorcese's "Gomorrah" and then go "well this explains everything" while never once questioning why it's on shoes

My partner: Do something hot.

Me: *grabs my boob through my shirt*

He: No, I can't see. And I don't have boobject permanence

my ideal self:

the aesthetics of a gay, femme, arts student with the personality of a STEM nerd

sometimes plushies make me cry because it’s like. they’re little guys made to be loved. their only purpose is to be held and hugged and loved. we made them because we love making things and we love loving things. and they’re so cute
