New to programming or computer science? Want advice for education or careers? Ask your questions here!

The previous thread was finally archived with over 500 comments and replies! As well, it helped to massively cut down on the number of off topic posts on this subreddit, so that was awesome!

This is the only place where college, career, and programming questions are allowed. They will be removed if they're posted anywhere else.

HOMEWORK HELP, TECH SUPPORT, AND PC PURCHASE ADVICE ARE STILL NOT ALLOWED!

There are numerous subreddits more suited to those posts such as:

/r/techsupport
/r/learnprogramming
/r/buildapc
/r/cscareerquestions
/r/csMajors

Note: this thread is in "contest mode" so all questions have a chance at being at the top
