Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.
It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.
I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

Everybody expects teenagers with zero life experience to figure out what they're going to do for their entire adult lives. Because I liked building models and robots etc. I went into engineering. Like you, I was disappointed by the amount of math involved. Math literally makes the world go 'round, but teenage me had no way of knowing that, especially since I was the first engineer in my family.
Lots of guys I knew dropped out along the way but I stuck with it and worked as an engineer for many years. I'm sure I made more money than I would have if I had switched to creative writing or some other soyboi major. Never was the best mathematician but I think it taught me grit which served me well in other areas of life, like saving money and not getting fat. Also they say if you bust mental ass early in life, it makes you more resistant to dementia.
Very strange that the best parts of my late middle age life are indirect benefits from my engineering degree, not my knowledge of differential equations and thermodynamics. Would have made me insane to tell me that when I was twenty, but it's true.

When you graduate those 3 women will be the sought after by top companies, then they will fight over women without a CS degree who have coded anything in their lives. Then whoever's left over will be hired to make up for their slack.
