I don't want to study. I don't want to think. I want to have fun Following that assumption I'd guess he wouldn't be homeless if he didn't pass, unless his parents/family really don't like him much. |

How can I speed up my coding? This question will be impossible to answer without understanding where in the process you fall over, which would require pairing/observing, then analysis. |

Solution for Incomplete-able Tasks? Again, I don't understand what the issue is--which task manager are you using that won't display un-scheduled tasks? Who cares if there's a checkbox or not? Nothing forces you to click it. |

Solution for Incomplete-able Tasks? I don't understand the issue. The task systems I use (although lately it's just Google Tasks) don't require scheduling, and are simply shown as tasks. |

How to calculate my personal efficiency in programming? @muz you will have some form of estimate for your tasks anyway. |

How to calculate my personal efficiency in programming? How is the number of poms relevant to anything like "efficiency"? "Time spent" is as useless as LoC, and just as misleading. The only thing that might have any meaning here is what you actually accomplished, e.g., the points from an agile estimation technique. |

What do you do while eating? @JeffO Made sillier by it being the same as the other answers that say the same thing. Meh. |

Self-hosted Evernote alternative? @JeffO Not really; OP is asking for app recommendations that do this, not how to write one. |

Will my workplace benefit from a stack exchange clone on the intranet? @JeffO Huh?! No idea how that's related to a company's internal SE. |

Does making summaries work? Without knowing what you're expected, or expecting, to learn/take away from a cram course like this, it's difficult to answer. The idea of learning all those subjects with any depth in four months strikes me as non-sensical. I'd probably turn to mind mapping and/or a personal wiki. |

Save browser state / tabs opened between usage? In addition, most browsers have the ability to "Bookmark all tabs" if you want to name the current state. |

Will my workplace benefit from a stack exchange clone on the intranet? The is no easy to answer this question as we know nothing about the company, its culture, its employees, etc. Anything would be conjecture. |

Will my workplace benefit from a stack exchange clone on the intranet? @janos I think it's clear I'm saying there's no advantage/your company will not benefit (the title of your question). You're obviously set on doing this, regardless of its utility. |

Doing a lot of things in one day— good or bad? There's no way to determine if this will be productive for you. |
