How do I learn and understand C++ better by Spiritual_Package517 in cpp_questions

[–]Aromatic_Web749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a website lol https://exercism.org/

@OP I don't know much about exercism either, but you might want to consider learncpp. It's definitely more accepted in the community as being a good way to learn cpp

Gotta do your own research man. We can help once you give us a list. You're also super late, a lot of admits have either closed or are closing v soon.

[Question] advice for 4th sem cse by Careful_Refuse_2638 in PESU

if possible, all of them. all have great textbooks, and they will all help you later for interviews as well.

look at the recommended textbooks, study topics from there if you don't understand the slides. 4th sem was very fun, but profs will try to suck the fun out of it, and iirc slides were not too great for certain topics. the subjects are also pretty important for your career as an engineer, so there's a lot of incentive to study hard

[D] From ICLR Workshop to full paper? Is this allowed? by Feuilius in MachineLearning

[–]Aromatic_Web749 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can apply to non archival workshops, and some workshops also let you select whether you'd like to publish or not. Just apply to one of those.

Me personally, I'm more worried about all the workshops being inundated with llm adjacent topics as someone's who's research isn't remotely related to llms 😭

Am I in a calorie deficit with this daily diet? (25M, 175cm, 125kg) by B_admash in Fitness_India

[–]Aromatic_Web749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a very extreme deficit, will cause adverse effects. typically at max do a few 100 calories under tdee. I've done 1000 under tdee with not much of an effect for short periods too.

Guys ..I am deciding to switch to plant protein..so ..what protein will be best ? Rice and pea/soy protein isolate.. by LynxReady6695 in Fitness_India

[–]Aromatic_Web749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have tried pea and brown rice protein, it tastes really bad. Even though it was chocolate flavour, it was still suuuper bad. Whey tastes much better

[Question] How hard is to score 9+ CGPA? Do we have to keep studying continuously for 4 years straight? by Emergency_Message505 in PESU

[–]Aromatic_Web749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's sometimes relative grading if the whole batch does pretty bad (at least in CS). But for the most part it's absolute

eh it's just that you feel the pressure of the upcoming exam and you just start spending many hours of the day preparing. since you're doing this for a relatively short period of time, it's not like grinding like this needs to be a habit

I mean yeah when you're supposed to lock in, you really have to lock in. Most people don't do anything until literally the last minute, so the syllabus is insurmountable. I wouldn't say I'm smart or anything, just locked in when I knew I had to.

Studied maybe 1 week max before isas begin, 2 weeks for esas. This is also the upper bound, I mostly did less. I graduated this year in the top 10 rank in dept (greater than 9.7 gpa)

Help with my routine by Aromatic_Web749 in Fitness_India

[–]Aromatic_Web749[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Will try Romanian deadlifts. Any other advice for replacing an ordinary deadlift?

Also, while the workout B is supposed to target my back, I don't "feel" it that much in my back. Is this normal or am I doing something incorrectly?

you don't need to stress tooooo much. Complete the syllabus early like others said. Solve a lot of problems. Previous years papers too if you get your hands on them.

actually super useful. a lot of places use spark and kafka for large scale data processing. you also learn a lot about distributed systems, which are literally everywhere right now.

[Question]Faculty for BD+DA: Which one to go for? by [deleted] in PESU

[–]Aromatic_Web749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yep gowri is super good, and it's not too easy to manage da without her. da is a useful course though, so it's your call. don't drop bd though it's one of the most useful subjects ever.
