I can generally smell a computer science major from a mile away. Superpower is currently up for one, and Surfboardt (Beyhive) and I are both graduate software engineers, so we have our random coding battles in the Beyoncé base.
Why do you love Python so much?
I like it because it is cross platform and powerful for many reasons, similar in the way C++ is.
But I find the fact that spacing matters so much ANNOYING. Like omg.
I heard about swift, but while I'm really quick to pick up new technologies, i think I'm gonna pass. If anything, I'll be look at Google's Dart. As a developer, I don't find for Apple in the software arena to be great. But they have still managed to dupe more people into paying for things than any other company. Facebook had the most potential for Developer dough (It was SO easy to make money off of apps for facebook back in like 2011.) but they ****ed it up.
I'm a big proponent of Cordova/Phonegap. The truth is, everything is moving towards the always on/web paradigm and Phonegap supports that. This is why the tutorial I do here will surround that.
I can't ****ing wait!!

I'm declared as a CS concentrator but idk

Ideally I wish I was a photography concentrator, but I didn't think to go to art school till now

So I'll probably declare just plain old visual art too. I'm really interested in exploring the intersections between art and programming~ but realistically I have no idea what I wanna do with my life, right now I'm writing an English paper and loving it and feeling like I should drop out of school, move to a cabin in the woods, and write books instead. Thoreau teas. I'm a disaster.
Not coding battles
I don't really find the white spacing in Python too annoying, but I'm a huge stickler on keeping my stuff indented consistently in any language, so it doesn't really bother me

I just love Python because it's so easy to read. If you understand the basic concepts of programming, it's pretty easy to pick it up and understand exactly what's going on... and it's not as bossy as Java (even though I <3 Java more anyways). Though I guess that leaves more room for mistakes.
Lemme google this Cordova/Phonegap stuff

And you don't have to tell me about FB apps making money back in 2011! Lorde knows Farmville owned a chunk of my wallet for literally two years.

Girl, run while you still can!
I mean I guess if you're really interested in that kinda stuff. But it seems so icky to me.
