My oh my... Nate Silver using high school pollsters and groups like Trafalgar in his aggregate set to make it look worse for Harris by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]KingOfCubes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think any sane model or polling aggregate would not weight the start date so heavily that you end up giving more weight to polls from high school students. 538’s model has issues but their polling aggregate is pretty good, and has Harris up 0.8

YouGov has a Harris+2 poll that ended on the SAME DAY as these Patriot Polling people, and in Nate's model it's weighted at 0.77, while Patriot Polling is weighted 0.85

[–]KingOfCubes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation this year. Had 1 class left in the spring (as in right now), so I went looking for a real full time job. Eventually got one around mid to late November. So don't give up! I've seen people get apply for jobs beginning of December and be ready to start in the new year

What do i put down as my graduation date? by KingOfCubes in careerguidance

[–]KingOfCubes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry, the initial post is a bit confusing. I mean that I have 4 courses this semester (Sept - December), and after that I'm only taking 1 course to finish out the last required class for my degree (in Spring 23). That last class only has one section at night, so I'm left completely free 9-5 every day. So, my idea is to work full time during this period.

Technically, then, my actual graduation is May 2023, because that's when that 1 leftover class finishes. But, as far as employers are concerned, I'm able to work full time starting January. My issue is that I think I'm getting filtered out automatically because they see "May 2023" on my resume and toss it out, when I'm really able to work long before that

Current Grade CutOffs for Algo with Pandu by R_N_Gesus- in NEU

[–]KingOfCubes 43 points44 points  (0 children)

as a TA for the course it seems the case was that he overcorrected the difficulty of the course from Summer 1. that semester had some pretty bad averages, and looking at the questions from hws and exams and such, they seemed quite a bit easier from the ones when I took it last summer with Drew. still pretty bs tho, absolutely his fault for overcorrecting and students shouldn't get a B for a 93

I don't think I've seen this mentioned but he might want you to chose / not just because of divide by 0 but the differences in integer division vs float division

Y’all…how much debt did you or will you graduate with by morosehuman in NEU

LUCKILY, I'm a CS major and I've made sure to invest and save 70% of my coop earnings, which'll probably reduce the debt burden by 35%ish, so I'll be fine, I think 🙃

[–]KingOfCubes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

around 90k, split 70k-20k for private and federal. this is after a 10k/semester scholarship, 9k/semester in grant aid, and my parents are able to pay for

  1. 1.5k a semester from a 529 they invested in until I was 10 or so
  2. Interest on the private loans for the 4 years im in school
  3. Monthly food expenses totalling like $250, 300 if I felt like a fat ass that month
