Is Randgriz Burning? (Valkyria Chronicles)

Reader mode
I've just got back from a job interview. I'll start working on April first, which means I won't be able to post as frequently as I'd like.

But at least I'll finally get some decent pay, which is nice.
 
Already graduated a month ago (Feb 7) and have been relaxing ever since. Starting my review for my Board Exam this coming April 20. :D

I'm an Electronics Engineer, which deals more with the hardware side of things. Especially the infrastructure which makes Telecommunications a reality.

I suck balls at Programming, I swear. I don't want to touch that shit again after my Thesis. *Shivers*

Now see, I somehow assumed that was a medical board exam, so for half a moment I thought you were an expert in two very disparate fields.

Admittedly, I find the hardware side of CE more fun, but I'm better at the software side...

Unfortunately, because I have most of a IT degree everyone thinks I am... and given some of what I've seen in the last few years, I'm actually better then the average by a fair margin...

That is unsettlingly not difficult to do. It took me a little over 4 minutes to write a FizzBuzz program like the one described, and I'm one of the slower programmers I've met. It was also not my best work.
Though based on your comments about my procedural file system, you're probably not half bad as far as programming goes.

I'm not bad, per say, but I'm not excellent, either. My poor memory makes it take longer for me to learn a language fully then my peers, which... proved a issue in my second programming course, as I'd never done Java before that. Every course since then, though, its been a non-issue.

Edit: Oh dear god that link is scary. I ran through the necessary code in my head in under a minut and could ahve it coded in five. Writting it down... well, I'm a very slow writer, so that'd actually take me longer then to actually implement the stupid thing.

I wasn't able to learn a language without hand-holding until around 6 or 7 years of experience. After I'd already learned half of the languages I would say I can program in now.(almost all of them Imperitive. Declarative languages are actually part of the reason I'm not at that job anymore.)

Then I took a month and memorized the D language specification. Love D so much.(The fact that it's all written out in an easy, organized format certainly didn't hurt any.)
