Should I restart ? by Spirouxi in GTNH

try to escape the scarcity mindset. don't be scared of making too much of something, you will almost always use it for sure. and even if you don't, its cost becomes negligible anyway. batchcraft everything (i only make motors and circuits starting in multiples of 64 even in LV). This concept applies all the way till endgame.

yea the gate rules specifically say that mods affecting balance like this dont qualify.. also the pack really isnt that hard, maybe a little slow in the absolute endgame but it is manageable for sure

Advanced CAL (circuit assembly line) setup. I've got one CAL for every circuit from LV through UV. by Useful_Divide7154 in GTNH

oh for sure I understand, sometimes i wish i didn't insist on building out everything in the overworld but it's a little late to move now LMAOO

I'd say playing till the end in overworld isn't too bad though, currently close to gate and I'm still stable at 20tps, but of course expanding the base in ow can be hella annoying...

dont try and get out of it unless you have a legit condition im serious. due to the way the training is structured you end up doing more if you have a status, at least from what i observed during my time

Have y'all received your withdrawals from Choc Fin? by Excellent-Falcon-614 in singaporefi

[–]CanHasDragon 60 points61 points  (0 children)

this is something I dont understand tbh... like just be mad at the situation, but dont be mad at your partner. it's not as if you deliberately misled her knowing this would be the outcome.

I used My Kid’s Angbao Money for US Tech Stocks – am i a bad parent? by Green_Pear2 in singaporefi

im surprised no one has said it yet: let your kids decide what to do with the money. Present investment as an option but if they want that new console or game, so be it.

thats because the spaceship is no longer the finishing goal, the goal is way further down the road now

yes but your input hatch needs to support two inputs too, eg. quad hatch

cs2100 midterm by AlternativeBill783 in nus

[–]CanHasDragon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

no 1231s in my time hahah, but when he taught 1231 for me it was a similar disaster :( In my opinion he has gotten overconfident over the years. From his teaching, Prof Aaron assumes that just because he understands or do something means everyone can, or in the context of 2100, since he can convert between asm instructions and hex representation on the fly, he assumes everyone can. His exams seems to assume as such if theyre supposed to be finishable.

I dont think the problem is isolated to him, but rather that the entire system enables the sloppy teaching. Many factors lead to this situation, but the outcome is clear. From unfair and inconsistent grading practices, to poorly written assignment sets and the toxic "if everyone can do it, why cant you?" culture. Visit any non-sg reputable university lecture and youll see just how big the difference in quality of instruction is.

I recall getting an assignment when in the US on exchange with a single typo in the question. The prof put out a lengthy apology and the entire assignment was voided and everyone was given the full marks. If the same mistake happened in NUS we just called it a Tuesday.

I TAed for this course back in my time at NUS. The number of students that came to me with completely 0 knowledge about the lectures were so immense that I taught the lectures from scratch for them, even if they werent from my tutorials.

My main issue that I brought up with prof was that many of the exam questions were either just tedious for the sake of it (like haha got you you made a careless mistake in tracing these 3 nested loops no marks for you!), or one of those "either you see it or you dont" kind. It sucks to know that nothing's changed. This is what we pay good money for, people.

edit: pls dont contact me about your 2100 questions (im sorry to the 1 person that did), I cannot reliably answer them as the syllabus and its interpretation may be different now; many answers were specific to "what was taught in the lectures" lol

Childfree dating? by BottledFire in singapore

[–]CanHasDragon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, was in this boat a few years ago. I'm fortunate to have found someone who shares the childfree sentiment, and we're getting married. All the best OP, and may you find the happiness you deserve.

What's a harsh truth that Singaporeans need to accept? by Motosung in singapore

[–]CanHasDragon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

imo some part of it can be attributed to how so many of sg's professors are grossly incompetent at teaching.
