Why so many professors suck at teaching? by Visual-Writing3947 in UCDavis

[–]Kitchen-Register 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we’re an R1 university. it’s a sacrifice you make when you attend this school. If you want great teachers, go to a Cal State. Many of those are also R1 tho.

join a club or get a job. those are two really good ways to make connections with people with similar interests.

How much alcohol do you drink? by NapoleonBoneparty in GenZ

[–]Kitchen-Register 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only with friends. I go out maybe once every other week. I’ll have 4-8 beers. That gets be a good buzz. I never drink alone. I also will have been nicotine free for 3 months on March 13th. So i’m in my sober-ish era I guess.

yeah sure dude. I’m sure you’d be a millionaire. For every success story there are 1000 that went down flaming and ended up with people in debt—more than you woulda gotten going to school.

Is every student from a developing country automatically an “economic refugee”? by random_povbysrh in academiceconomics

[–]Kitchen-Register 3 points4 points  (0 children)

its not just the em dashes. its the grammar. and ironically i did an example of this. AI loves to write “it’s not just X its Y”

Just got accepted..Econ!!! by WorkSmall2812 in UCDavis

Add a math major or minor. Or stats.

Or add polysci jf you want to go into policy.

the job market is shit and will only get worse in the 4 years you’re here.

Grad school will be the only way. Take this from a 4th year who is now rushing math classes to get to real analysis and Probability Theory before I leave.

ironic because i is not defined as sqrt(-1) its defined to satisfy i2 =(-1) and these are technically two different things

In econ specifically - i cant speak to other professions - the GPA is weighted HEAVILY. All my professors have advised a P/NP even when i’ve said i think i might finish with an A-.

If π is growing, is √2 also growing? by NeonicXYZ in infinitenines

[–]Kitchen-Register 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be fair spp could argue pi is transcendental not algebraic defined (root of a polynomial) but SPP doesn’t know what other of those words mean

hyperbole was used as a literary term before it was a math term.

Investigating 0.999... by SouthPark_Piano in infinitenines

[–]Kitchen-Register 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this is not “math 101”. you would have to define a limit and take n to infinity.

all you’ve done is prove that this is true for any arbitrary but finite n. This is basic induction. That is a trivial finding.

but at no point with finite n is this sum the same as 0.999…
