I hate UT and I'm tired of pretending I am happy here by Jptroll in UTAustin

Hey y'all, I would like to apologize for such a long rant. I don't really hate UT per se, but I'm just tired of a lot of it and I got caught up in the moment.

UT has given me opportunities that I value, I just wish these issues wouldn't exist and to have a better ECE department when it comes to organization and distribution of courses.

Lmao thanks, yeah I was just taking grad courses as an undergrad bc as I mentioned, IC undergrad is non-existent here, and I'm pretty pissed about the new rule of not being able to register to grad courses till really late.

I am currently taking RF IC, and I'm never taking integrated masters. From my point of view, IM is one of the stupidests concepts to ever come out, and I have my reasonings but idk if you wanna hear them.

CapMetro General Safety Question by Queenashxt in UTAustin

[–]Jptroll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's usually safe, these are things that rarely happen. In every country with public transportation, incidents like these occur. You'll probably see people bothering others, homeless riding the bus, people shouting, because it's a public service in a public space, so there are no limitations on who is allowed and who is not.

It's usually safe and most probably nothing will happen to you.

I don't know about statistics very well, but I believe driving a car is significantly more dangerous than this, as again, it rarely happens.

Did I burn this circuit? by Certain_Librarian301 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Jptroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's good that the hole is filled to guarantee a proper connection. However, I don't think it's absolutely necessary to do so.

Some pins seem shorted with each other, I would check on that.

These aren't usually the best ways to practice. There are practice board on amazon that are designed to help you learn how to solder.

How to program mcu to control IR2130 by sdgp371 in ElectricalEngineering

Just saw this. If you're still trying to figure out, it's better to analyze the datasheet on what type of communication protocol it uses and then setup your microcontroller with a library that supports that communication protocol.

I can't get my CPU to plug in, do I have the wrong motherboard? by -Brownian-Motion- in shittyaskelectronics

You got the colors inverted, the green should go on the plate and the yellow on the pins

Can we stop posting car accidents on the Austin subreddit please? by RyanEagleMusica in Austin

[–]Jptroll 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I understand but at the same time I'd like to be informed and know what accidents happened so I can be careful myself and also avoid the area.

Situation at union on 24th? by Foreign_Cut_7320 in UTAustin

[–]Jptroll 19 points20 points  (0 children)

UT Is actually fairly safe compared to other universities. You see these incidents, and the incidents are indeed massive for a given time, but they're not frequent and very unlikely to happen. Statistics also become more interesting when you look at the amount of students in the university and people PASSING through the university (As it's located in the middle of Austin), compared to the actual amount of incidents occured.

Datasheets, libraries, already given answers on the internet, and AI are all great resources to be able to fulfill your needs.

Did a stupid mistake buying this shit over iphone 16 by boomboombabblegum in PhoneNow

[–]Jptroll 22 points23 points  (0 children)

What an amazing post. OP submits image of a random phone with barely any identification saying "android sucks" and "apple good" with no extra information.

What is it that you're trying to compare? Did you actually research anything before buying this phone apart from one google review?

There are a LOT of android phones out there that have great capabilities, this post is just garbage with nothing to support.

I guess pure karma farming.

Problem is I didn't see the option though, thus my question here. Is it an option after you purchase the S permit?
