- I did it!
- It was hard
- But very fun
- I learned a lot
- Including that the logistics of carving out time, finding a desk and food, etc was harder than the actual coursework
- I want to do it again (which I think means taking some version of MIT 6.00), but I can't, at least right away: logistics. Need to return my attention to neglected household duties, etc. (But I bought myself a copy of the 6.00 John Guttag textbook as a prize for finishing 6.189)
What next?
- Reading next textbook (Guttag, John. Introduction to Computation and Programming Using Python. MIT Press, 2013) in spare moments, plus Python podcasts, etc
- Trying to add networking/contextualizing events to my life, Women Who Code, GDI, study meetups, etc
- Maybe look at doing some of the HMTL/CSS/Javascript track that everyone seems to start with. HTML I know, but CSS and Javascript I have only passing acquaintance with...
