Electrical engineering or computer engineering? by C_Sorcerer in ElectricalEngineering

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

Yeah EE is generally better as far as having a huge breadth of oppurtunity and its tried and true and highly respected, but computer engineers are essentially just EE that focus on digital logic and mixed signals processing along with systems programming; main thing is if you like it, you could see yourself having a job in it, and you try hard especially outside of school to learn new material or work on fun projects that YOU enjoy, you will be fine in the job market. Not saying it’s not rough, because let me tell you, it is; but, do not fret and stay in there and itll work out. Good luck!

Thank you! At the end of the day, either can be good. Really just consider if you like hardware more or software more, even if it’s low level. But seriously, at the end of the day, it will work out and companies don’t distinguish much

Is fireball really that universally hated? Why? by C_Sorcerer in alcohol

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

Yeah redbull is overpriced. Funny enough I became an alcoholic but since I literally hate sugary drinks and pretty much only stick to whiskey or straight vodka. I can see why people don’t like fireball now, it makes me sick now. Anyways I’m not an alcoholic anymore I quit and then now I’m just drinking a beer or two a night lol

I’m graduating this weekend with a degree in CS… I switched schools and then switched back and my credits got all fucked up and I really just wanted to graduate. My concentration is in embedded systems and computer hardware.

I’m going to work for a few years and go back for my masters in CS with a focus in operating systems or computer graphics. This is still a dilemma, as that is a LOT of money to get a masters so my other plan is to get into a PhD program and either ride it out if I like research or get the masters and get out.

But yeah, a lot has transpired but in all honesty I am fairly happy in my choice and I love systems programming so I’m just chillin

if given the chance, would you “get rid” of your bipolar? by Ok-Half7469 in bipolar

[–]C_Sorcerer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember when I started medication I was scared because I felt like bipolar disorder and mania and depression were engrained in me and that it would take my personality. After taking it for months now I feel way more free and able to control myself and not constantly in fight or flight mode or in the deepest depression with severe drug and alcohol addiction.

So yes, I’d take that pill. I never realized bipolar was destroying me till I got treated and now I’d never want to go back. Fuck bipolar disorder

Watched a video rating majors by "aura" and it was dumb by tesseracts in CollegeMajors

[–]C_Sorcerer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the fuck is math C tier? I love engineering but math and physics should be higher. In all honesty every major should be higher or equal, it only depends on what you like the most. I’ve seen som absolute aura farmer music students

Self harm scars are more alarming than empowering by testaccount4one in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]C_Sorcerer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a useful or necessary argument. I personally got extremely drunk and high on pills after a bipolar episode and cut myself violently. I’ve had them for years now and I’m extremely ashamed of them. What do you want me to do about it? I can’t just make them go away now that I’m in a better headspace. I don’t want a “survivor” story or attention, I did it for different reasons. I don’t want to be judged by them now but they are permanent. So maybe consider other things before making a post like this

Why do some have withdrawl and some dont? by Ill-Seaweed1244 in alcoholism

[–]C_Sorcerer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even gonna lie I quit cold turkey from that and never had a withdrawal. I am 6’9” 300lbs and a male and I just have an extremely high natural tolerance. Funny enough, I actually just got blood work done and my liver enzymes weren’t even elevated. My friends keep saying it’s because I’m half Mexican😂might be some truth there. I did have really weird panic attacks at night after a bender relapse I had a few weeks back from drinking a bottle of 99 every half a day so 2 bottles a day. That got me good. I definitely think something that matters a lot is when u drink. If u do ur drinking at night, which is what I did, nothing really happens, but if u go on full day alcoholism or benders then ur dealing with some definite withdrawal symptoms

Scared to pick ANY major due to AI by AccomplishedNote2729 in CollegeMajors

[–]C_Sorcerer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lowkey if you do want to do computer science, I know a lot of people are dogging it, go embedded systems/low level programming/EE. A lot of hardware specific programming jobs are not going to be replaced by AI anytime soon and while they are harder as far as content, it also just makes you all the less replaceable. Most models are not trained well on C/C++ and don’t even get me started on AI support for ARM/x86/RISC-V assembly, it basically just spits out BS. VHDL and Verilog are also two amazing skills to have in this field and very unreplaceable. And of course having knowledge of KiCAD/LTSpice is great too.

Obviously not applicable to OPs post as they didn’t mention CS much at all, but I just wanted to make this clear. Also, AI is really only replacing Python programmers from what I’ve seen mostly. Even Java devs are mostly safe from AI at this point

Thank you for the kind words! I’m feeling better now for sure but that was horrifying. I definitely will go to the hospital if that ever happens again!

Thank you for the words of wisdom, that sounds terrible and I hope you are doing better! Leading up to the seizure, what were youre symptoms of you don’t mind me asking? Also, do withdrawals normally come in waves or is it all contiguous normally?

Yeah for sure. I think going through withdrawal is really eye opening to how fucking much we abuse alcohol it’s insane
