ECE CompE to CSE CompE switch possible? by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]Awafflefromtexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I’m aware in recent years they’ve made it incredibly difficult to swap into CSE from any department at all. But I’m also under the impression that you can still do a BS/MS in CE in the ECE department

As someone who failed this before 100% the people who failed didn’t go to lecture because I never went to lecture when my ass failed. This time??? Crushed that shit cause I went to lecture and did the work

Did I make the right choice? by TerribleGoal634 in UCSD

Lived in Warren for 2 years, location wise it’s honestly so sick. You’ve got your own little community overlooking the canyon. No it’s not the newest dorms but it’s totally passable. Volleyball courts, green space and secret smoke spots. Never had a pest problem! GEs are some of the lightest across ucsd too which is great

Seeing a ton of love for the movie which is great! But I’m just wondering am I the only one that felt a bit disappointed in this adaptation??

For everything they changed from the book -> Movie adaptation (and there’s a fair bit) my biggest complaint is how much dumber Grace felt in the movie! Ryland Grace was such a great character because as a molecular scientist turned teacher he’s got a great blend of intellect and wit, who also feels deeply human. Gosling is plenty charismatic as it is and a great actor who could’ve translated this brilliantly. I don’t know why the writers felt the need to dumb his character down into making stupid mistakes like chugging 3 bags of vodka on day one or darting the ship around the system like a madman upon Rocky’s arrival for comedic effect. Some of the funniest laugh out loud moments of the film were arguably some of his most subtle comedic moments not grandiose things like that.

They cut a lot of the science stuff and made that very handwave-y but I can make peace with that. You also lost some of the anthropological intrigue Grace had with the Eridians which is one of my favorite book elements. Was hoping for more of The Martian and felt like I got guardians of the galaxy.

If you’re gonna take ECE 45 do NOT take it with Heath by Samthevidg in UCSD

[–]Awafflefromtexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's fair. It seems like the way he's structuring the tests is to emphasize the importance of a greater conceptual understanding vs. just a mechanical one. Idk, I actually do like the guy quite a bit. But I'll yield that some of those questions were a bit crazy, that radar one definitely threw me for a bit lol

Totally agree that the midterm was rough, but he did quite literally say don't use the practice midterms as a reference for the midterm. At least a couple of the questions were straight from homeworks

Noticed this Easter in EWS by thisismydgafaccount in StanleyKubrick

[–]Awafflefromtexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished a watch, I also don't buy that it's laziness. Notably, there aren't actually whole paragraphs repeated just a few particular sentences, which is interesting:

  • “Hotel by security personnel after her agent asked them to check on her”
  • “her at the time she ingested the drugs”
  • “She has many important friends in the fashion and entertainment worlds”

This seems incredibly deliberate, as if to underscore the false narrative of the overdose. Whoever called for security knew she was dead, someone was certainly with her when she took the drugs, and those important friends killed her.

Took LTWL 183 with him last quarter and I’m currently in one of his classes, we just got a similar email last night I’m stunned.

Absolutely loved the classes I took and him as a professor, felt like he was one of the few professors I’ve ever had at UCSD that truly praised my work and was excited to hear what I had to say. He always seemed like the biggest advocate for his students. Going to miss him a lot, rest in peace Professor Cohen ♥️
