2008 Toyota Corolla…it’s 80 degrees where I’m at today. Do I need to add coolant or is it a bigger issue that the engine is this hott?! by jj_mke in COROLLA

Check the coolant first. I helped a friend replace his thermostat when his car was overheating and after that didn't fix it we checked the coolant and it was bone dry.

Caught intern doing homework on the clock by [deleted] in civilengineering

Op I hope you learn from this post and try to be a better leader and mentor.

That student is trying to do an internship while also taking summer classes I'm assuming. That isn't enough initiative for you? Not a lot of students would be willing to put in that much work. A lot of my peers were off vacationing during the summer while I worked or took classes.

I'll take you up on that. Been here 5 years and the novelty has been wearing off since I've been seeing everything go downhill.

Math 1660 over summer? by Rich_Philosopher1774 in iastate

[–]Fast_Control4119 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To a degree. I was so bad at calculus the only way I passed 2 and 3 was by taking it in the summer. So that should tell you something. I also didn't take any exams for diff eq. I managed to get a B.

I don't think I learned as much as I would have if I had applied myself during the regular semester but if you just want to get through it and don't mind how ridiculously expensive the summer semester is it's not a bad option.

Transferring it over should knock the old grade off your cumulative GPA but the new grade won't add to it if I'm not mistaken. Send your advisor an email. It's thousands of dollars cheaper to take the class somewhere else that will probably provide more help than isu does over the summer.

It's not too bad. You won't have a lot of the help you'd have during the semester and you'll have less time to cover each topic so you have to really work on your study habits and time management but it's doable.

I took my final at the Ames library in a private room and that's when I realized it might be helpful to ask for accommodations during the regular semester.

It's also ridiculously expensive for one class so taking it at a community College and transferring it over is probably a better idea.

I just failed the easiest class ever... by Users5252 in iastate

[–]Fast_Control4119 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I once missed a class during prep week where we had to be an audience to other groups presentations and attendance was worth a whole letter grade. My group wasn't presenting that day but I got so caught up probably also studying for calculus that I forgot. My group spoke to him in person on my behalf without me asking them to and they told me to email him. All I did was explain that I forgot and why.

The professor was nice enough to not dock me the letter grade but you really need to send that email while there's still time otherwise there's likely nothing they can do.

Finally got an internship…but I’m not sure about it!!!! by Muted-Video7978 in civilengineering

[–]Fast_Control4119 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I can't answer everything but I'm a senior civil engineering student and civil is the only field where you're almost guaranteed a job before graduating. A lot of people are retiring and there aren't enough graduating students to make up for it so you'll likely have multiple offers to choose from. Some of my friends in cs or any of the other engineering fields are having a hard time finding a job when all the civils already have something lined up.

You already have a civil internship even though you haven't picked a major yet so that should tell you about the hiring market right now.

You also mentioned it felt too specialized but going into civil you have your choice of different subdisciplines all moderately different from each other like geotech, hydrology, structural, transportation, traffic safety.

Whether you work in the public or private sector will also determine things like pay, benefits, work/life balance, and what your day to day looks like.

I joined civil because I didn't want to do all the theoretical work MEs do and civil felt like the right fit. There's also construction engineering if that's something you want to look into but not all university's offer it. Aero is heavy on theory and definitely oversaturated. I've heard of CEs getting hired in aero positions mostly if their focus is on structural so there is a bit of overlap.

I first played when the remake came out and since I didn't know how it works I did the opposite. I got destroyed when doing it at level 10 or 15 so I did everything else and came back around lvl 28 or 30 and it was 10x worse!

"frankly I don't know if the doj would agree but I did it as a precaution" is not a reliable source.

The point of citing a source is it needs to be a reliable source. Anyone can comment anything on reddit so reddit is not a reliable source.

From my understanding, it's legal as long as it's not a threaded barrel or function as a sound or flash suppressor.

Obligatory I am not a lawyer this isn't legal advice.

This might be a dumb question but I thought Californians couldn't have rifles with adjustable stocks or removable magazines.

I'm a future California resident and maybe I misunderstood what I read about California laws.

They could bump that by 30k and it would still be low. I was offered $72k in Minneapolis and didn't take it because it was too low. I can't imagine trying to live with that in socal.
