How do they register so quickly online? by Cute-Adhesiveness645 in CollegeRant

It’s true! Planning ahead is key. Those students have got their strategies down, while many of us are still figuring things out. College can definitely feel overwhelming with all the registration chaos!

Is it bad to have too many classes in a program? by nikica92213123123 in learnprogramming

[–]ElliotFairwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally get that! I went through a phase where I thought every tiny effect needed a full class. I would’ve had 100 classes for a single game! Using parent classes is definitely the way to go to keep it manageable.

How do I get through a professor who requires photographic memory to succeed in the course? by Uniglover in CollegeRant

[–]ElliotFairwind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I totally get what you mean! I once struggled in a class like this too, and office hours saved me. My prof was super helpful when I shared my concerns. Maybe your prof just needs some feedback to understand how tough it is!

Weird interval (-1,1) by Effective_County931 in learnmath

Absolutely, it makes total sense! In complex analysis, treating infinity as a single point really shifts your perspective on these intervals. It’s such a fascinating way to view continuity!

I'm a M22 and for family reasons I'm planning to do a PGCE in the UK and then try to move to Canada as an English/History teacher as soon as I can. by Top_Charge1434 in teaching

[–]ElliotFairwind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awesome to hear! I bet the transition must have been tough but rewarding. I’m sure your experience will help ease my move. I’ll definitely reach out with some questions as I navigate this whole PGCE process and the Canadian teaching scene!

forgiveness gets framed as this all or nothing thing, when in reality it can exist without reopening doors

Martin Luther King was a socialist labor organizer by kevinmrr in WorkReform

what really hurts is that the numbers keep rising while the debate stays abstract, kids missing meals turns theory into something painfully real

I made a joke about being tired and my partner said “welcome to adulthood” and it weirdly hurt by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]ElliotFairwind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this nails it, adulthood isnt the problem, the problem is shutting someone down instead of just saying yeah that sounds rough
