Starting this blog

Broo, why?

Before I started planning this blog out, I asked myself:

"Yo, do you really want to invest hours of your life starting this blog? Why don't you just watch Netflix?"

Since I'm quite pragmatic in making such decisions, I divided my reasons into two categories: Purpose and Goals.

Purpose

Learning by writing
Improve my English skills
Enforce a productive structure onto my chaotic student life
Have some place to display my projects and to write about them
Watch less Netflix (that's a hard one, let's be honest)

Goals

Create a library of knowledge such that I can come back here, should I forget something (screw that forgetting-curve)
Inspire people to study computer science (it's great)
Motivate myself to study more CS topics in depth ("learning in public"-concept)

What Can You Expect?

Articles in tutorial form
To be published in a biweekly to monthly manner

Topics I'll Be Writing About

Student life
Computer Science
Everything my degree covers
Everything that interests me
Swift development since that's what I'm going for atm
Artificial Intelligence

Inspiration

Basically every CS student having a blog (they made me want to have one too)
Tania Rascia's blog (thank you for making your gatsby theme open-source)

Conclusion

Well, that's it for now. I'm excited, how all of this will turn out eventually. Writing all of this while having lots of time (due to COVID-19) will be totally different to maintaining this blog once the next semester has started. I guess, I'll just have to watch some of Ali's videos to keep myself motivated and to stay productive!
