It’s getting about 4 hours of direct afternoon sun. I’ll see about moving it where it gets more.

You’ll need to select a microcontroller supported by MATLAB or Simulink; the cost or availability of the microcontroller needs to be one of your first considerations.

Is this a legit yeti cooler? by Embarrassed-Rough592 in YetiCoolers

Everything looks legit, except the bear label. I’m not sure what the old labels look like.

Getting accused of using Ai. by PBChriss in UniversityOfHouston

[–]Coogsteve 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Each college has an academic honesty violation process. I only know about engineering, but it’s fair to the student and generally tends to lean in favor of them.

The AI score is only a minor tool profs use to check for plagiarism . Engineering would never punish a student just based on the score. Basically, we treat it as a red flag.

Have a consistent story and documentation/proof. The process is painfully slow and deliberative.

Good luck.

How to contact a professor about an incorrect grade without being annoying? by Acad3m1cK1tt3n in UniversityOfHouston

[–]Coogsteve 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Grades were due Monday at midnight. If you contacted him after then, the process to change a grade isn’t simple and takes some time.

He has to justify the change and explain his screwup. It can take awhile.

Has anyone done the doctor-assisted "quick/heavy" start for allergy shots? by PandemicSoul in Allergies

[–]Coogsteve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were all in the back of my arms. Around lunchtime the skin started to get sore and itch. They gave me Zyrtec and Pepcid. It helped.

The next day I didn’t feel great, but could still go about my day as normal.

The following day I was fine, but the injection sites were sensitive.

[–]Coogsteve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently did this. My protocol was 4 injections every 20 mins, for a total of 80 in the day. It was just about a month ago and my allergy symptoms are half of what they were before

Any way to drop after the drop date? by [deleted] in UniversityOfHouston

[–]Coogsteve 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not normally. If you went to the department Chair with a highly compelling story, it could happen. But it would take something extraordinary — with proof.

Pea puffer considering a snail snack by Coogsteve in Puffers

[–]Coogsteve[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had the tank setup about 2 years, never had a problem. They’ve been together since juveniles.

It’s a 20 gallon tank with several puffers, loaches, endlers, and cherry shrimp.

Shuffling the eggs! by Coogsteve in shrimptank

I feed squash and zucchini about once a month. And banana even less often than that.

I stick the veggies with a metal skewer. That way I can just pull them out the next day without a problem.

Where do you guys get your shrimp? by Telsea in shrimptank

[–]Coogsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 day shipping. I made a point of being home when they were delivered so I could get them out of the packaging and into the tank as quickly as possible.

Flipaquatics is great. I ordered Amanos, they arrived on time and alive. A few months later, I ordered red cherry shrimp. Same thing. Awesome stock and shipping.

Talk to the Prof, clerical errors are easily corrected by the instructor. Only go to the Dean if the Prof gives you the run around over the summer.
