The AI focus was apparently something they just started doing

I guess it could just be a kneejerk thing they did

Though, all the other AI classes are a lot more real

This one specifically just made laugh

(It's also worth almost no credit)

1 singular credit

What other AI classes do you have

When you say AI classes, that could range from not specific to learning about machine learning and the math behind it

AI Optimization (math, and general processes, deciding best usage), Two about actually developing AI, one about machine learning

And I took one earlier about language processing

This is the only one that is explicitly a meme I think

You know, now that I think about it, I guess the meme course is fine

those usually exist for non specialists who are interested, or trying to get a minor

You know all about those types of people

you taking it is silly if you are doing a cs degree though

but I guess I am not the standard when it comes to course selection, since I take bullshit hard courses because they are interesting even if it kills me, most students take some easy padding courses

I think it's maybe not the most useless course in the world...

Maybe

Probably not

I do have to take a class on US politics though which i would argue is probably less useful for a CS degree

Having to take any non subject related courses is cancer

I agree!

I was so happy waterloo had zero non math/physics requirements for math phys

Luckily I got most of the dog shit type things out of the way in highschool

I only have to take politics, and a health and wellness class

Didn't even require english because I passed a test that showed I was competent

I wish I could've done that instead of the two writing courses I did in high school

I fucking hate collegiate writing

College writing was where I had the professor who hated me and tried to get me in trouble with the dean

Maybe shouldn't have written the paper on TND bro

Of the problems she cited to the dean, one was talking during a lecture (I said “bless you” to a classmate who sneezed) and rolling my eyes at her

Impressive that she could tell you rolled your eyes

My white half betrays me

Professor probably did not like you saying okay to everything she said

Here is my school venting

that is all

Pika, I spent several hours looking through and making fun of the UW curriculum with a friend a couple years ago

Your school is just as bad as every college

Yeah I thought about it more as I talked about it

although most of those are for the non stem degrees

which are meme programs at UW

I think the English department ones are always the funniest, WVU had these specific genre study courses

So you could take a class on Vampires

I don't think Iowa has AI prompt writing as a course yet

it has had a course where you just play with preexisting generative models the entire time though

my school has video game english

im not sure what that entails but the desc. was learn english and higher forms of literature/vocab thru video games

>playing Hatred to learn english

Zoomer undergrad classes are so fun. I love getting back an hour and a half before a presentation deadline to see that one of my group members has changed the whole slide deck without explanation despite not making any contributions or discussions this week.

Turned in my project without any of the actual project files because inexplicably when I zipped it they disappeared and I didn't think to check that for some reason

DAMNIT!!!

(I have no idea what happened because i just did it again and it worked this time)

I was sent a potential journal to publish in and this is the second most accessed article they have

I don't think i want to publish here

I mean that’s similar to what you would be writing about.

Nigga math

post the worst handwriting you see sometime Pika

there has to be at least one

Next time I see one thats bad

this is my last question to grade

Not bad writing, but funny

Ignore the bad grammar in my comment, I fixed it

I can remember doing that exact thing once

skipped a proof and just cited "we did that in this class" and then solved the problem

This is not skipping a proof for the record

the proof required using the reverse triangle inequality, that is kind of a basic result you can just freely use

multiple students have decided that this is a useful figure

a proper submission looks like this

Got a cousin (once removed), who frequently gets into debt with the expectation that my mum or me will bail him out. If we don't bail him out immediately we're threatened with the interest payments Buys a camera for his photography course. Breaks it the next day by having it fall off his mobile doll while it is in the air (I refuse to use the d-word) We give him 2000$ to see a psychiatrist, then expressly tell him not to leave Sydney. The next day he is asking for money for a plane home from northern Queensland. Originally my mum was going to get reimbursed by my C3-PO uncle, but that was provided that my cousin actually spent the money on what he promised to spend the money on.

idk how these people get credit cards in the first place

it just feels irresponsible, and will set self destructive people in a bad place

Had the best bike ride of my life in Taipei Taiwan

Studying abroad here for the whole month of May

I fixed a bug when I converted some cobol and was told to bring the bug back because it was part of their workflow. So now I have to find a way to purposefully program a bug.

lol
