I graduated high school in 2005. I had been making and running websites and forums (phpbb anyone?) since 1998…ish?

I went to a solid state college, started my degree in EE, bounced around a bit, landed on comp sci, almost failed out, and now (given that story) I’d never have been hired anywhere.

As it turned out, it the value I provided to my first job was… significant? I kept solving problems, usually with zero code and just technical suggestions.

I loved going to college. I loved everything about it. I wish I could do it again. I learned nothing.
