From talking to this person, I feel like I have 20 different tools I can pull out at any time to solve a problem and they have none, but I don't know where I got mine.
For instance, divide and conquer is a tool I use all the time without really thinking about it. I've split a list into sub-lists before, etc.
You’ll see my other post in the thread. I’m double majoring in Computer Science & Engineering and getting minors in Mathematics and Economics. All while trying to start a business.
I can probably help you out. I love learning and teaching. I barely sleep; I just kind of follow Leonardo Da Vinci’s Ubermann Nap schedule - except modified to what works for me.
I need smart people to help me get smarter and I saw a guy on here. Who goes by steamraise and after looking into him I found this site.
I want to talk to him. Not sure how yet. I’ve only been in for like 30 minutes and I’m still getting used to the layout.
I’m cool with anyone though. Just browsing around and looking as stuff made everyone seem pretty interesting.
I think steamraise might be a genius. I’ve known about the guy for maybe 1 hour and everything I’ve seen has impressed me.
