Hi everyone! I'm a sophomore in college, diagnosed almost 3 years ago now. I've enjoyed reading through this site and have found it very helpful, so I thought I'd join as well! :D

Computers are good! Hardware or software?

I started programming in 1971 (yes, I'm old!), studied Computer Science in college, worked in computers 'til retirement, and still enjoy them.

I just don't trust them! :hmph:

Software! I'm learning Python right now. I really enjoy it, it feels like my brain was made for this!! I've loved computers since I was little.

It means second year.

Freshman=First year
Sophomore=Second year
Junior=Third year
Senior=Fourth year

I am surprised you don't know it. Its a common knowledge. Everyone uses those terms. At least in US. I thought you are from US, are you not?

I have never been to the USA. Our system is different.

Then I confused you with someone else. I remember someone with similar name saying he is in east coast and talking about traveling.

What country are you from?

That explains it. Sorry for being rude.
