Being a computer scientist in prison until death must suck so hard. Jesus Christ.

Bad hobbies to have in prison:

  * computers
  * wood working
  * lock-picking

Good hobbies to have in prison:

  * re-inventing mathematics from scratch
  * writing poetry
  * working low-skill jobs without meaningful compensation
