So, I’m supposed to talk about my Comp Sci experiences on
this blog so here’s y experience for the week.
Now I know what most of you are thinking, we don’t have
chip-and-pin machines at U of T, and you’d be right. However, what we do have
are printers, and I had a bit of a row with it a couple of days ago in which I
told it to print and it said nope, piss off. It was rather embarrassing seeing
as, if anyone should know how to make a printer behave it’d be a Comp Sci
student, right? Now, I’m also sure that using the printers in the CDF labs is
nowhere near as complicated as it looks to me now. There was probably one tiny detail left out of what instructions
on printing in the PDF labs I found that threw a proverbial wrench in my
printing plans and left me whispering abuse at the machinery involved.
I guess, what I’m trying to say here is that my first couple
of weeks in U of T have had this same problem iterated over and over again. I
know what an Object is and how they work, but why is else if one word. Or I
know limits but why does he keep writing (of form blah) instead of just stating
the answer. So, yah, silly details shall be the bane of my existence.
PS: Yes, most of the entries will likely end in “So, yah...”
that’s just how I work >.>
