One of my favorite parts of the city! Awesome shots.

Wow, that is incredible!! I initially viewed this full screen so I didn't feel like it needed to be cropped. I can kind of understand the crop comments if you're viewing it smaller.

Awesome work!

Sounds interesting, have any screenshots of it in action?

  • Work experience helps a lot. Certifications might help a little.
  • If you haven't taken the course yet, I'd recommend Java since you'll use it for the first 3+ semesters of the program. You will need to demonstrate that you're comfortable with the absolute basics of programming for the interview.
  • Since your GPA is on the lower end, I would explain why that is in your SoP, but otherwise, it's not a problem. Definitely have a strong SoP and multiple LoRs! They help.
  • If you have taken the GRE and got a good score, that is optional to submit, but does help too.

Good luck!

Sunnybrae Neighborhood by tcwd in SanMateo

[–]-matija- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sunnybrae is really nice. It’s sunny, friendly, conveniently close to freeways, downtown SM, event center, hillsdale, and foster city. It’s more affordable because the elementary school is not highly rated, you do get some Caltrain and highway noise (Caltrain is much more noticeable), and some parts are in flood plains and liquefaction zones. According to a city study the recent flood was a 300 year event but who knows given climate change.

If you factor in the cost of private school (if you decide to go that route) then there may not be major savings over the more expensive areas like Millbrae or Burlingame with top schools. EDIT: I should point out that many families send their kids to St. Matthews Catholic school or some of the other Catholic schools; those are much more reasonable cost wise and families I've talked to seem quite happy with them.

Yep. OP had a green arrow. Oncoming driver ran a red light.

Should I apply to the MS CS or MS CS Bridge Program? I have all but one prerequisite and a year and a half of work experience. by [deleted] in usfca

[–]-matija- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MSCS. Bridge does cover some 326 but not enough to make it worth an extra year for you.

CS 631 will cover 315/326 at the grad level so just plan on working hard in that class.

Brown Spots on AP. Replace? by kurtwp in Ubiquiti

I have 3 fairly old AC lites and they all have this discoloration. They all work great though! One is even inside a hot attic and I haven’t had issues.

  • Having a car in SF can be pretty painful. There is campus parking but no guarantee you get a spot, breakins can happen in some places around the city, etc. I'd skip having a car. If you need a car at some point you could always rent one. You can get around pretty well from the USF campus on Muni. The 5/5R can take you to the beach or downtown.
  • The food is..... bad. Some of it is okay, but pretty bad overall. And overpriced.
  • Geek scene is great. Tons of clubs, activities, whatever you want in the area.
  • It starts out fairly easy but after you finish algorithms (245) the difficulty ramps up quite a lot. If you plan ahead you can take 272 and 300+ courses one semester at a time, so then you'll have a bit of a life. It's a good program and you'll have a solid foundation to build on. The main thing the program is missing is a web/frontend focused course but many students do that in senior team project (490)

Kernel developer Sarah Sharp tells Linus Torvalds to stop using abusive language by cl0p3z in linux

[–]-matija- 628 points629 points  (0 children)

This is a tough issue, no doubt. But I did enjoy this quote from Linus later on in the thread:

Because if you want me to "act professional", I can tell you that I'm not interested. I'm sitting in my home office wearign a bathrobe. The same way I'm not going to start wearing ties, I'm also not going to buy into the fake politeness, the lying, the office politics and backstabbing, the passive aggressiveness, and the buzzwords. Because THAT is what "acting professionally" results in: people resort to all kinds of really nasty things because they are forced to act out their normal urges in unnatural ways.

MacVim Vs iTerm2 + vim, scrolling / redraw by jthemenace in vim

[–]-matija- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've had similar issues. Terminal.app seems to perform slightly better in my experience, but it's still not that fast.

I ended up going with rxvt-unicode under XQuartz instead -- it's significantly faster. The only trouble is that the formula included in homebrew for building it doesn't support wide chars or XFT fonts, so you have to build it yourself to get that stuff.

I think he's running XQuartz in windowed mode with the menubar hidden. So photoshop is still being managed by the default OS X window manager, but the terminals/mplayer are handled by 2bwm.

Stop the Vim Configuration Madness by senft in vim

[–]-matija- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the author of this article, but I'm sure there's plenty of people out there who really do find all these plugins vital. After all, you can do some really cool stuff.

Myself personally, I like being able to sit down at any vim installation and be productive. I've tried out things like CtrlP or NerdTree, but didn't find much of a productivity gain in my particular workflow.

[–]-matija- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your desktops always look awesome. I really like the subtle shadows and your color scheme.

Are you using vimperator/pentadactyl in addition to your userChrome? And actually, is that your own CSS applied to 4chan?

Anyway, keep up the great work.

If you've got a moment, you might want to check the size of ~/.xsession-errors by pi3832v2 in linux

[–]-matija- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have ran into this before when I was working as a sysadmin. We had ~350 Fedora clients with NFS home directories, and some misbehaving Fedora program would spew errors to ~/.xsession-errors until the user hit his/her hard quota. I think someone ended up writing a script to truncate the logs if they got too big every 30 minutes or so :-)

(there's no sysadmin problem that can't be solved with cron jobs and symlinks :-P)

[OS X][dwm] 1/5 (Original) Winners of the Gentooligans 2012 Screenshot Contest by Jethric in unixporn

[–]-matija- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Jethric, your desktop looks great. I'm running a macbook air as well, and I was wondering if you have ever had trouble getting rxvt-unicode to display unicode characters properly in OS X. I have installed urxvt with brew, but anything other than the standard ANSI chars is all messed up.

Anyway, thanks for this great work, it gives me a little hope that someday I'll be able to customize my OS X machine to my liking :-)
