Alright, faggots. You're going to take a first-year computer science class at MIT.

Register. It starts next week.
>But Python is for plebs!
Well, good thing that Harvard is running a course that uses C and recommends Linux. No excuses. This one is even self-paced.

>But muh blub languages!
I SAID NO EXCUSES. Here's a course that uses Scheme. This one is also self-paced.

Those are your choices. If you don't choose any of these, you're a lazy sack of shit.
Even if you already know the basics of programming, you will almost definitely get something out of these if you haven't had a formal education yet. If we do it together, we can make threads about it and encourage each other. I'm doing the third one, and I've been programming for 2 years.

literally lolcats and plebs

>you're a lazy sack of shit.
yes
>>53359429
I already have a computer science degree.
I know my college is shitty when I take a introduction to computer science and it's a free lecture from edx.
Thanks for reminding me OP.
>>53359429
CS50 is for teaching your grandma how to computer
>>53359429
Thanks anon! I need to learn basic programming to try and land a computational linguistics job and I'm taking this thread as a sign that I can do it!
>>53359429
Started the second one.
Thanks for da heads up, OP. Can't wait to become a faggot.
No I'm not because I'm already in second year CS
>>53359533
So you're saying /g/ is going to struggle?
>>53359429
You stole a thread from the other chan. Well done.
your MIT one was weeks ago m8
Why should I? I'm a high school dropout and live pretty comfy on autismbux.

You probably want to vote for Bernie but won't because someone else will do it too, right? Fucking degenerate
>>53361646
I don't care about American politics because I'm not an American.
>>53359429
But I've already taken classes on programming anon.
>>53359429
I took the MIT one, it was really good. Took me from being able to write shit like fizzbuzz to writing my own command line applications. I did python the hard way and could program but not very well. About halfway through 6.00.x something clicked in my head.

Taking CS50. Should I be looking for EdX generals?
>>53359429
Nah nigga, i'm taking the finances course, programming is for monkeys, niggers and transniggers.
Congrats senpai, you stole a thread from /tech/
