    It sounds silly but “running the program from your head” is a super important skill as a programmer. It’s what you do when you read and try to understand other people’s code.

      idunno man I’m studying mech eng… still a lot of fun that class ngl, I once was taking an engineering nap at the library, and while I was in the stupor just before asleep, it came to me the answer to a extra point question the teacher had given, one that was supposed to be in the exam but they took it out because they tought it was too hard.

      Damn I felt smart for a brief second there, never in my life had I felt smarter lol.

      yeah i enjoyed that class, but i can’t imagine myself workig as a CompSci/eng/programmer, I found that is just too much brute force for my taste, is just not that elegant.
