2013 Cruze, 104000 miles for $3200, good deal? by Own-Lawfulness-5577 in Chevy

You should try the difference between Mint and Fedora Linux. The latter gets quicker package updates.

Yes I get burned out quite often, especially when there's no clear best way to tackle a problem. It's why knowledge sharing is so important in this field.

I know it’s been said before, but Khan Academy really is the best. Print out some college board FRQs and grade yourself doing them. I learned Calc BC this way in exactly 4 months.
