## Software Engineering Inspiration
My interest in becoming a software engineer started with something as simple as playing games. Whenever I play games, I sometimes ponder on how they're created. The curiosity that I had led me to learn about software engineering. Additionally, I heard that software engineers are in high demand and make a lot of money, which definitely added to my interest. But beyond the money aspect, what truly drives me is the knowledge of learning different programming languages, enabling me to create my own websites and video games.

The idea of software engineering feels like puzzle after puzzle waiting to be put back together to create the bigger picture. I remember thinking about how it was possible to do such amazing things by only pressing a few buttons on your controller or keyboard. These thoughts turned into a desire to try and learn the background of the origin of games. The thought of creating something from scratch, whether it's a functional website or a game, sparks a sense of creativity within me. The added bonus to being a software engineer is the income that comes with being one since the demand for engineers is high. Therefore I want to be on the level to turn my imagination into reality, and software engineering seems to be the perfect place to start the journey.

What truly sparks my interest in me software engineering is its potential to show others the background experience of how things in the digital world are made. As I've experienced hours of enjoyment playing games, I wish to be the one creating those experiences for others. It's not only about the coding, it's also about the money. The idea of creating something as cool and fun as games and also getting paid for it motivates my learning of multiple programming languages. Each language is like a unique tool, allowing me to create a better life for myself. With every new language I learn, I am one step closer to my goal of developing my own websites, and games and becoming rich.

In software engineering, asking smart questions is important. These questions improve communication and find better solutions. This essay explains why smart questions matter for software engineers, how well the chosen questions follow smart question follow the "How To Ask Smart Questions" by Eric Raymond, how responses show the quality of the questions, and what we've learned from this. The main goal is to understand what makes questions smart or not, so we can ask better ones in the future.

## The Importance of Smart Questions
Problem Solving:
Problem-Solving:
Smart questions serve as a cornerstone for effective problem-solving. Software engineers often face complex issues that require careful analysis. A well-framed question can guide engineers toward the root of the problem, accelerating the debugging process and enabling quicker resolutions.

Efficient Communication:
Clear and concise questions enhance communication among team members. Smart questions ensure that everyone involved in a project understands the context, goals, and challenges, reducing the risk of misunderstandings and misinterpretations.

## Reasonsing for Smart Questions
## Reasoning for Smart Questions

Clarity:
Smart questions are clear and specific, leaving no room for questioning. They precisely define the problem or topic, making it easier for others to understand and provide relevant answers.

## Summary Of Smart Questions
When looking at "smart" questions on StackOverflow, there are some rules when talking about "smart" questions by refferimg to the philosophy of Eric Raymonds essay. It tells if the question was specific, and well-researche. This approach shows the community to respond with efficient and practical help, illustrating the benefits of respectful and well-prepared answers within the community.

Not Smart Question Summary:
Following up with "not smart" questions, questions needing assistance, a question could need more context, and prior research. Therefore, the responses from the community could be more helpful and occasionally critique, undermining the importance of thoughtful and well-structured questions to foster productive interactions and receive valuable assistance within the software development community.

Question 2: "Why should I use a pointer rather than the object itself?”
[Not A Smart Question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22146094/why-should-i-use-a-pointer-rather-than-the-object-itself/22146244#22146244)

He asks how come he should use pointers rather than objects itself and provides an example of the code using a pointer instead of object and he also states that he came from a different language background. This could be considered a “smart question” because he explains the he came from a different background knowledge and also provides an example of code based off his confusion.

## Conclusion
The responses to the two questions shows the importance of asking smart questions in software engineering. The first question received vague responses, with the community asking for more details. In contrast, the second question showed more precise and relevant answers, as it provided a clear context and demonstrated effort and respect.

## Start
My interests in cars inspired to learn how a car is built. I bought a broken car off of FaceBook Market place that didnt start or wasn't fully built so I dedicated myself to learn how to learn the ins and outs of the car. In the very beginning I decided to look up the main things a car needs to start. In order for a car to start you need fuel, spark, timing, air, and compression. Starting from the cheapest to the most expensive parts I started with the air filter --> spark plugs --> fuel pump --> battery --> alternator --> starter. None of those options worked so then I looked into the electrical side of the car (the basic parts) I learned how to check the fuses battery terminal connections and the relays. With some research and timing I found the solution, it was the starter relay.

Then comes the next problem, the car was overheating. So I went back to do more research and discovered that coolant is leaking from the car. With a little bit of looking I concluded it came from the waterpump. After removing the water pump I saw that it was corroded and coolant was leaking through the O-rings and that concluded the overheating problem. Up next was the exterior portion, I zip tied all the wires together to hold the in place and ordered a OEM front bumper and finally with alot of money spent extendive research I finally got the car in a good working condition.
