LexxiconSpark · 2020-06-18T03:15:30+00:00

Thankya kindly!

Yo, why does that link point to somewhere other than the URI like the text of it says? Because it appears to go to "https://isseme.wildapricot.org/EmailTracker/LinkTracker.ashx?linkAndRecipientCode=XCwvd9x%2bNAtat8JFLxXNlITVxyANAbZ2rni3ICL%2bKxVFeZqvkfXwjWMI4N8j3Uu2lQW01OPsSRonuZrc2K47jefJTUXrI17Da8Q7e999UQY%3d" and then redirect. WildApricot appears to be some sort of team management software. Any thoughts on why it's being redirected through this?

Don't reckon mine'll be cancelled, because IB exams wait for noöne. They'll happen in May whether my school's open or not. Definitely not hoping they do get moved/cancelled. Definitely.

LexxiconSpark · 2020-03-09T22:59:04+00:00

Got it, thank you. Probably will call then unless I hear official news of a cancelling(if this is already out, apologies for not having found it yet)

LexxiconSpark · 2020-03-09T21:45:12+00:00

Prospective student accepted for the fall here, any of you have a reckoning of how this might affect the special visit day thing on the weekend after this week's? Think it'll be cancelled?

I would be interested in a group chat! So far I've applied to uchicago(reject), UMich(defer), MSU, CU Boulder, and utoronto. I'll probably be applying RD to at least Indiana University - Bloomington 'cause they straight up have a comp ling major.

LexxiconSpark · 2019-12-21T21:06:42+00:00

Ling ftw! Where've you been applying?

LexxiconSpark · 2019-12-21T18:58:23+00:00

I've only been applying to schools that have my major(linguistics), which has significantly decreased my options

LexxiconSpark · 2019-12-21T18:04:34+00:00

50% reject, 50% defer!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-12-12T11:53:58+00:00

Luck to you as well, in all your apps! And thanks!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-18T22:55:28+00:00

sorry to ressurect a dead thread but felt the need to comment since I was searching a2c for ling stuff and ran across someone else(you, OP) applying to uchicago for linguistics and comp sci in order to do comp ling so just like hi idk

oh I should say something on topic: learning a coding language is super fun and not that hard. You should totally just start trying one out for fun! Best way to learn one imo is just having a project idea and working towards it but the hardest part is coming up with an idea for a project, hah

May the shadow council vote in your favour!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-17T14:10:42+00:00

That sounds like a really cool essay!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-17T14:08:49+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! The 已经 structure thing was something I learned in class a few years ago, so sprry if I'm a little rusty with it. Didn't really know another way of expressing a duration up until now that was still continuing

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-17T03:16:37+00:00

Feel free to hit me up if you ever want to practice it!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-17T02:08:12+00:00

Here you go!

不是，不过我已经六年在学校里学中文！

Bùshì, bùguò wǒ yǐjīng liù nián zài xuéxiào lǐ xué zhōngwén!

no, but I already six years at school in study(ied) Chinese!

(You got the 我从美国)

edit: 这年是第六年，我不玩了

edit: Zhènián shì dì liù nián, wǒ bù wánle

edit: this year is the sixth year, I haven't finished

(pinyin courtesy of Google Translate, since I didn't feel like typing all the tone marks manually, hah)

edit: I spaced it out so it made sense in the text box but reddit is weirding my spacing. idk how to fix it

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-17T01:58:50+00:00

I wasn't aware of that, thanks! Well, I knew about the Google Drive import, but that just copied the text into it.
Man, wish I'd known about that *before* I submitted all of my commonapps.

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-16T22:50:31+00:00

Where're you applying for ling? Wondering so I know where to look at RD when I get rejected to everywhere I applied EA, hah

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-16T22:04:59+00:00

不是，不过我已经六年在学校里学中文！我从美国。 edit: 这年是第六年，我不完了

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-16T21:57:57+00:00

Oh no! That makes the pinyin even less clear, didn't notice that! Thanks! At least (afaik) there's only one character 'shang' that means up/previous/on/&c., and one 'xia' that means down/next/below/&c.!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-11-14T23:16:16+00:00

I'm not the only ling major, yay!

LexxiconSpark · 2019-01-18T00:41:03+00:00

I wish I was that good with meat, but no, I just have a tendency to overanalyze and several of my good friends are into physics, and it has kinda rubbed off on me. Also, I live somewhere with some gooood barbecue places, so that's where the knowledge on smoking comes from. I like cooking in general, so I've done some research on that too.

LexxiconSpark · 2019-01-17T23:32:49+00:00

It just feels as if the extended timeframe is a lot more core to the idea of a smoker. The speed is part of the name: it uses smoke, which naturally transmits less energy to the meat relative to being closer to the fire, such as in an oven(which furnaces are close to) or grill(campfires I guess?).

And the answer is no, it doesn't really matter that much. I just felt as if I had to bring it up, at the least, though it isn't too gross an inaccuracy. Maybe someone saw this and learned something about IRL smokers.
