Let's proceed from the assumption that ideal for women is not only rich men, but also clever... I do not claim, just assume. In this case, it is unnecessarily to appear in front of her sitting behind the wheel of the latest model of Mercedes, or to make an appointment at the most expensive restaurant of the city. You simply show your intellectual ability, and your darling is in love, enslaved, etc. The question remains: HOW TO ...? What a way to make her believe that you really got the "brains"?
Quoting of Nietzsche or Kant? It is too abstract. I'm not sure what a sultry bosomy brunette appreciate your thoughts fly, because the women like to operate more earthly terms. Agree with her about the meeting in the park and come early and sit on a bench with a weighty volume of poetry "Silver Age"? But the leggy blonde think that all the best in the literature is limited to the last release of "Cosmo" or even worse - "Oops!"
You need an instrument to act instantly, transforming your thinking in some of the tangible results. I suspect that I have found such a tool for me. Processing.
One of my familiar musician and audio designer once told me about this thing. He said that can create any creative artwork, and even somehow connect the audio with the image on the screen in real time... In short, to create digital art! I vaguely imagined all this, but I still visited the site of developers of this software. This is what I need! Now women can see you are a programmer, designer and artist together... Creator, demiurge!
At first glance, it's simple: in the working program window you write a line of code, then press the "Run", and the program gives a result in the form of any images or text (depending on the commands that you have written there). The site has a few basic lessons on working with the program. And with the first of them I coped without difficulty. Although until this moment I did not have any programming experience! In school I studied badly, smoked, and in the classroom of informatics I tried to insert a tape of "Technotronic" in the tape-recorder to boot the antediluvian computer...
That's what I sketched during the morning day off, while my girlfriend was sleeping:
You may ask, what is the reaction of my girlfriend? Admiration, affection, praise! All this is spiced with the key phrase: "You're clever!" (for which all of this, in principle, was started)))...
I began looking for literature that would help me get to know the program better, but it was not like a dry university textbook at the same time. Books about Processing was written enough, and many of them are decent quality, with plenty of illustrations and numerous examples of code. But some of them are scared off its orientation to narrow range of specialists, others - numbers of pages (up to 800!). One book was really simple and easy for beginners, "hobbyist", without trying to make programming the main type of their activity))).
"Getting Started with Processing" is a small paperback book, written by the authors of the program simple and understandable "human" language. It discusses how Processing works with color, text, images, motion, etc. Many of the books after reading them may be common reference books, because you already will have an understanding of the program. For those interested and willing to dig deeper there is introduction to the work program with the 3D-objects and the board "Arduino" in the book.
But let's get back to with what we began this conversation. Basically now, if I, short and bald unprepossessing 30-year boy is not enough female attention in the noisy company, the algorithm of my actions is simple: you demonstratively sit aside, open your laptop, write a few lines of code, and now on the screen all is blinking, whirling, and within minutes you hear a soft purring voice over your shoulder: "Wow!... What are you doing here? Did you do it yourself? You are clever! Can I sit closer to you?"...
