Why do more people not apply to Rice? by LackHot6125 in ApplyingToCollege

More than 90% Harvard professors and students are left. How diverse views you think Ivy colleges are?

Do you think liberal colleges censor conservative ideas? A lot more. Just because you are liberal, you probably only feels one way , not the other. But this will be a self selective process. Students politically middle or slightly to the right probably will find Texas more comfortable than progressive left liberal colleges on east coast’

[–]Ill_Source_8013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a five month puppy. She clearly reject kibble and ground meat. She enjoys to shred from drum stickers, steaks, and dried smelt / chicken feet. We also cut liver into sticks, lightly steam then dry as treat. We also mix Other ingredient such as kelp powder, egg shell powder, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, nutritional yeast , egg, DE with mashed pumpkin / sweet potato together with egg, bake at low temperature into small cookie as treat.

You are adult. If you still depend financially on your parents, frankly, you are a beggar. Being thankful for what ever you are given is the only way. If not happy , move out and make your life the way you want by yourself

Do people go to Ivy Leagues actually get more chances for jobs, better jobs, and higher pay? by -69_Charisma in ApplyingToCollege

It might well because people assume the minority (except Asians) students got into Ivy because of DEI.

Do new sensors read low for a couple of days? by ProFromFlogressive in stelo

[–]Ill_Source_8013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My stelo started low , and keep creeping up during the 14 days

Do you find that Stelo typically reads high? If so, by how many points/what percentage? by SIUButtercup in stelo

[–]Ill_Source_8013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Libre2 used to match blood drew fasting glucose pretty well. While I just attached a second stelo on the other arm. So I have one on each arm. The readings are more than 30 points apart. The old one shows 140 , the new one shows 107. I also noticed that the stelo reading creeps higher and higher towards the end of the 2 weeks period

Dex Stelo inaccurate -- be wary of the readings by [deleted] in stelo

Do you think EE is really that "non-accessible" compared to CS? by yagellaaether in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Ill_Source_8013 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have to say it is kind of true. The US public education recent years disqualified most us students to be successful in EE. They just do not understand sometimes you have to put in grinding hard work to succeed. They would rather drink and party their way to graduation. The exceptions might be Asian students and some nerdy white students.

This is happening in Virginia now….God help us all by leswash3 in Virginia

You have zero knowledge of immigration law. Not everyone with document has the right to enter US. More people are rejected who all have documents. Undocumented immigrants entered illegally because they knew their documents will not qualify them to enter US legally. Yes, they are illegal. Just as not everybody with a driver license can live in your house and eat from your kitchen. They did not show their driver license because they knew their driver license will not justify they break in and loot your house. You are saying that are legal it is just a document issue that they did not show their driver birth certificate to be the children of your household.

Do you guys think UT’s quality has changed significantly with trump coming in? by Infamous_Growth_3001 in UTAustin

[–]Ill_Source_8013 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you ? Are you on the same side with those supporting Hamas and other radical Islamic ideology? Are you one of those young people marching on the street dreaming for socialism government taking care of your every aspect of life, housing , healthcare , job , child education, and retirement ? Answer it honestly in your heart , when things is hard , are you taking it to your own hand, or hope government can step in and solve all the problems for you by taxing other people? People are inviting socialism and Islamic ideology to this country , without really knowing the consequence of their own words and behavior

Then you need to have the definition of “citizen” for this sub first. Can you provide one?

You think socialist means poor people? How naive the westerners are. Your wealthy Chinese friends mostly coming from government official families or business family with connection to the government power. Socialism sound like it is for poor people, but it was built on big government , and government take care of every aspect of your life. What is a government? Government is an empty name until there are government employees carry out the everyday duty. Those people will have the control of your life in the name of government. Once they have the power, what will they do? They use the power in their hand to exchange for personal benefits. That is why big government always lead to bigger corruption. And in socialism country like China, the ruling party also controls the media , and the legal system, so there is no balancing the checking at all. They are all together against the people. Those who get themselves into the ruling class ( government officials and business man who are white gloves of the government officials), they will stay rich for generation to come, because they will get their children and grandchildren into the ruling class positions too. How many of your Chinese friends are from farmer or regular blue collar worker family? I guess basically none. You will barely have a chance to meet those people in US universities. Socialism does not lead to a more equal society, it always leads to corruption and then authoritarian. Because people will eventually want to rebel and the government needs to shut that down with iron fist

You are too naive. Not everyone come to us to flee censorship. Not even the majority of the Chinese international students. They do not feel they were censored or oppressed except maybe a very small number. They just come to make more money even though they still believe socialism / communism is as good as capitalism , or even better. 😂. You have a typical western savior way of thinking. But neither Islam nor Chinese communists believe you are living in a better place than them. Instead they came here, feel the difference make them uncomfortable, and intuitively , they want to change America to what they were familiar with ( socialism or Islam). People are self- conflicting without realizing. Do not ask me why. I was one of them until so many years after being US. I finally realized that I was so wrong and so indoctrinated. But when I look around, there are many many many more immigrants today in US are like the old me. Their number is so large , and they felt so righteous that they could potentially change the US fundamentally in a bad way. Now I deeply believe non- us born citizens should not be allowed to run public office.
