If you could give 16 year old you any advise related to computer science, what would it be and why?

"Stop being a lazy shit and actually learn something."

I got about 2 hours into a book on JavaScript and that was it. 😬

@jhh2450 Oh man

Enjoy your life then come back when you are 18

@upDog Yea major regrets.

I did get a bit further into HTML last year. I got far enough that it took half a semester for me to actually learn something major in a web dev class lol

@zokazavevu so you think it's wiser to just wait

I didnt even get into computers until i was 19. Barely even cared they existed when i was 16. I chose CS because i thought it would be more fun than mech engineering in college.

I would have told myself to A) pick up a book after school. B) go to a different college

Stop caring about what language you are programming in.

Oh yeah also i would tell myself to stay single.

Dude, that girl from bio, I know you think she's annoying but she is thirsty for your dick just let her have it. And do more pushups. Who are these people with me? A bunch of computer nerds going back in time talking to their past selves. Yes, I am one of them.

I would say enjoy your youth because once you get a job you will never stop working..

Most of your learning happens at home outside the class

@upDog do other things in sports

Hey younger me, here's a tipp for free:
* Make projects small.
* Don't create dependency on others.

@StacksStacks omg, so true

@octothorpe oof, I'm sorry
