Please give a warm welcome to Eric Bomgardner, the newest member of our iOS team!
Eric grew up in McLean, VA, where he attended Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. Since graduating from the University of Virginia with a degree in Computer Science, he has worked at Google as an iOS engineer. In his spare time, Eric likes to play tennis and soccer, and lately he's been into Rocket League, a video game where you control a soccer-playing car. Learn more about Eric below:
Quizlet: If you could learn to do anything, what would you learn?
Eric: I'd learn to make movies. The best movies are accessible, shareable, beautiful, and impactful experiences.
Q: What was your favorite subject in high school?
E: A computer science class I took after my freshman year of high school was one of my favorite classes. I made a version of Phoenix, my favorite game for the TI-83, as my final project in the class.
Q: Who was your most memorable teacher and why?
E: Mr. Williams, my math teacher in middle school. He encouraged my intellectual curiosity and fostered my interest in math.
Q: Who's taught you the most?
E: My parents.
Q: What's the most interesting article, blog or book you've read recently?
E: I recently happened upon a neat blog called "Wait But Why" that has a bunch of great, long-form deep dives into how things work and why they are the way they are. A recent post and comments convinced me to try out vegetarianism. I also like Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman. It's a very interesting look into how our brains work and the mistakes we make because of how they work.

I found a love and interest in making movies when I learned how to my freshman year of highschool and then I just self taught my self most of the things. A reason why i make home videos is for the happiness and emotions of others.

Hello!
Welcome
To Quizlet
As you can see
I am starting one of
my welcome pyramids
again. It's been a while since
I've done one, but hey, who's to
judge? Oh, and please know that you
can copy these. I'd prefer if you say 'copied
from sfonseka' but I know some of you won't but
still feel free to use these on posts. But anyway, back to
the welcoming, this one isn't instructions on how to post, so
Welcome Eric, have a great time here and Quizlet. Makin' our site
a better place for me and you, and all the Quizlet users here too. So
Welcome, welcome, welcome, as I would say out loud. Welcome to Quizlet!
Okay,so It didn't turn out exactly like a pyramid, but it almost did-it's just that last stray 'Quizlet' at the end. Oh well. Welcome to Quizlet, Eric!

Hi Dude!
I also do iOS Development!! Yay!
Nothing like being the 502nd person so realize that someone just joined Quizlet. W E L C O M E!!
503. Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
I know this is kind of late but, 😟🤗😟😟😗😗😟😞🤓😜😜W-E-L-C-O-M-E!
