general

so it is only going to get worse

lol

good chart

lol

tbh humanity has overpopulation issues

of course

In africa, asia, and the middle east

^

why is there an X here if I can't click it?

lol

imagine blocking people in 2020

The numbers out of China right now are pretty meaningless

but if it doesn't jump to Africa soon,, it'll be harder and harder for this to blow up

Death comes for the Chinamen

fucking

just spent the last 12 hours working a a prject I procrastinated

I want to die

go to china town

true

Whenever anyone mentions a project here, I assume procrastination

I mean

I had 3 weeks?

yeah 3 is about right

Sometimes it never really comes to you until the last moment

but its a 55 minute presentation

combined with just coming back from co-op syndrom and cheme classes that whant to kill me

don't complain until you do a 40 hour straight assignment because your group project dropped the ball

A whole class on cheems

don't worry leg

my group is dropping the ball

100%

me, the procrastinator

did the most work

but only on my section

so all the other sections are going to be shit

sernior year i had so many simultaneous projects that i legitimately spent 40 hours without rest and barely eating at one point

rip

tbh

when you get into the groove or w/e you don't want to stop

b/c if you stop you get distracted for 10 years

and you procrastinate even more

at least that's how it is for me

but uh

my proff is retarded

and is basically making the class teach the class

and also grade the quizes that they make for their presentations

he also has no idea what to do when he runs out of groups to present

"its in the planning phase"

you end the class early

easy

at least 1/3 of the class is the lab

yeah but he grades the presentations

and they have to be 55 minutes or you get penalized

we are not hitting 55 minutes

even if I try my best to ramble for half an hour

55 minutes for a presentation is ludicrous

0 faith in my group

first group did it

i don't even think my thesis defense was 55 minutes

but they had all the tryhard smart kids

ste the bar high which kinda sucks

also

we are graded on our distribution of work and how well we work together

so

if I do complain about how hard I carried my group

I probably get penalized

I'm waiting for the grade to be posted and then am probably going to ask for extra credit

That's one thing I kinda miss about college, strangely enough

Completing these large projects last minute

It felt good to hack away at these giant projects, in completely irresponsible ways, driven by an unmeetable deadline

I agree, work is boring because they make you stay on track

school projects also have the quality that they are achievable without the input of other people so you aren't constantly blocked from progress by waiting for necessary assistance

The other part of it I think, if it's not often you have different work, for different departments, needed at the same time

Workload is a lot more linear overall

I frequently have three separate things to work on and every single one is waiting on some random person from outside my team to help or provide a document
