I'm really just being cheeky, the writing was on the wall for me about three years in that EE wasn't for me.

Granted, I make a great living writing software and honestly have really benefitted from my 67% complete EE degree. Software ppl generally have zero idea how computers work / how to really leverage hardware bits to accelerate certain workloads. The ideal CS education for me is based in EE but also starts with both lisp and C. NOT Python. However, I was a horribly distracted student throughout college so I really should be the last person giving recs for coursework.
