I did that once, it freaks people out... 
Sitting in the back of the class is a nice strategy.
Although I've been sleeping in the front desk as well.
I can't recommend falling asleep while taking notes, your handwriting gets smaller and ends in a straight line right across the page.
Or falling asleep on small college desks. My arm fell off and I nearly ended on my neighbors lap.
Also don't fall asleep while talking, you'll say some pretty weird sh*t like "I want to leave, but all the sinkhole's are hidden." Nice detail, "hidden" and "clogged" are the same word in the Netherlands, so I may have meant "clogged", but that made no sense in the context 
What's NEVER a good idea is being called to read for the class, then wake up violently and shout "WHO!?" throughout the class 
Just some tips from the pro

I never had the opportunity to sit at the back - I had a reputation that went before me, so every teacher asked me - not so politely - to take my seat in the first row, in front of the teacher...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

It's people like you that enable people like me, thanks! 
I sit in the back AND the teacher is more occupied watching you than watching me

That sounds like an argument between Hefner and Yoda.

VS Code[^]
Just found this a little bit ago have downloaded and kicking the wheels!
Anyone else using it? Any tips, tricks or complaints?
New version: WinHeist Version 2.2.2 Beta I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!

I didn't felt motivated to change IDE...

It's not an IDE it's a light weight code editor with intellisense, highlighting and such.
So far looks pretty good, but just starting to use it.

Does it not call a compiler? Does it not execute the executable? And can it not attach a debugger to the executing process? It's an IDE; just not a full-featured one.
"and leaves more complex workflows to fuller featured IDEs." -- Visual Studio Code FAQ
My hope is that it's more like the Turbo Pascal (4 and 5) IDE. Over the last few years I have developed a simple IDE of my own with only the features I need. Debuggers, syntax-highlighting, and Intellisense (though convenient when available) are not things I generally need.

Agreed, although light weight it is indeed an IDE.
It's pretty cool but not sure if it will replace Notepad++? For me anyway.
Side Note: See it's getting a little warm out there!

I've never tried Notepad++ .
It's well into warm, but still too cold to go swimming.
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, so Notepad++ is an IDE now?!
|
|
|
|

Notepad++ is only for Windows, so VSCode has the potential to be useful to many more programmers.
|
|

Same opinion here. I like Notepad++, but there is a need for something simimilar on linux and especially for the people from the win-dev-world.
Please I know about 'vi', but it's not my 1st choice only tool... please!

Sublime Text is still around for the Mac - shame it never got developed further than it did.
TextWrangler (free) is ok(ish) too if you're desperate, but VS Code does a decent enough job too. I tend to use WebStorm on the Mac though.
I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's trouble, a man alone. Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can't make a move without a form.

I gave it a spin but decided I liked Sublime better. Maybe it was because I only found one plugin that let me FTP-sync with the actual code base running on an Ubuntu VM, and I didn't want to be bothered with configuring yet another editor.
But there was also something definitely klunky about it. It was sort of the whole gestalt of the tool. But again, by that time, I was probably used to Sublime's quirks and didn't want to learn new quirks, I mean, how to deal with new quirks, in the editor that is.

VS Code definitely has some quirks and takes some time getting used to but I guess it's that way with any editor.
I use Nodepad++ for most of my none programming needs and I'm used to it and have pretty well discovered all the quirks and such. It's kind of like a pair of boots/shoes once you break them in they are comfortable and going to a new pair is a PITA because you have that break in period and you know it's going to hurt.

I'm really interested in what you found klunky about VS Code. I'm on the VS Code team and we are working on removing adoption blockers. If you can spare the time to describe what put you off the product, we'd really appreciate it. Then we can work on it and improve the experience.
Thanks,
Steven

Sure -- I'll fire it up again and let you know, if I get sidetracked (by work) ping me again either here or directly to remind me.

SlOT:
I have interacted with VS Code and since you (Steven Clarke) are on that team, the perfect opportunity to ask a question I can't seem to find an answer:
Where is the Run command in VS Code? I typed in an exercise in Python 3.51 to learn some more of the language and could not get the program to execute to the output window. What I'm missing? TIA
Free your mind and the rest will follow,
Don't be colorblind, don't be so shallow!
