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

Woah neat, that's kinda cool they do short-term study abroad

Did you get a Chinese name from the local students at your university? My friend who did a semester in Shanghai said that was one of his favorite parts.

i sat through project presentations for a LLM course and one student was doing political sentiment analysis and tried to use bluesky for data, famous for its diverse views

Since today is spam ventchat day, I spent an hour on a math problem that is honestly pretty simple and I feel stupid

can anyone guess how much of the submitted solution was correct?

15%

pretty much

by how I am grading it its 20% but its generous

Hell yeah! Take lots of pictures!

Some guy cut me off in heavy rain and claimed I was at fault for rear ending him while driving a Box Truck with an already long stopping distance. Work doesn't believe me since I recently got one of those bullshit school bus tickets where the stop sign starts to go out as I'm passing (fee came out of the paycheck of course and they didn't allow me to fight it). Been extremely depressed lately and have been drawing furry pornography to take my mind off things. posted to phijkchu discord dot com

Excellent post, Raccoons

thanks dane

Take a page out of the Russian playbook and bring a dashcam to work

And next time try and kill the person you hit

I hope this helps

Motherfucker tried to get me to sympathize with him saying "oh its a 2025 Buick Enclave" then nigger don't cut a truck off when its pouring!

See this is why if you know you're going to crash you should hit the gas and claim the brakes were broken

One - to crash hard enough to fuck the brakes

Two - see prior posting

This strategy is heavily inspired by my good friend Spooky, so if you ever need to do this and the authorities question you, you can blame him

no but actually

obv don't speed up if you're in the smaller car

because you'll become red mist

but if YOU'RE the one in the box truck....

I'm glad I could guess the Spooky strategy correctly

This was as much of a meme class as it sounded

Holy fuck

I'm nearing the end of the reading and they still feel the need to write "Artificial Intelligence (AI)"

This must be made for pure boomers or some shit

what is the time frame for this course?

summer?

Two months

are you on a quarter system?

(But you can complete it at any time I guess)

No

self study?

It's a self study type

maybe the writer wanted to make sure the reader didn't think it was about a guy named AL

I really don't know why anyone would ever need this class

Half of the reading is legitimately the same point over and over again

That point being

"Hey, did you know that if you give detailed instruction you will be more likely to get the answer you are seeking?"

Holy shit...

yeah its just like a search engine but far worse

Yeah but that's okay

They also explained the exact same process but for search engines

If this class actually taught someone anything I would assume they were fucking retarded
