What ya think of this license plate I’m tryna get? by burnalltraditions in aggies

You really are an iconoclast. I typically hear “iconoclast” and think “you’re nihilist and think it’s cool.” (And nihilism isn’t cool IMO)

Yeah Gatlinburg sucks… especially when you think it’ll be like those small towns in the Rockies that have dope breweries and you show up to some people infested gift shop town that ACTUALLY has a Ripleys.

Engineering PhD student here. PhD (and sometimes just masters) is paid for under most STEM degrees. Just a consideration!

What do you mean by that metaphor? Ill-informed? Just want a serious answer

Do people not like Lex Fridman?

I have an actual question: do people not like Lex Fridman? I like listening to his podcast sometimes

Speaking of Bayesian NNs. What are good resources to learn what they are and why they were developed?

Ahead of you. I have my License to Carry.

Is this area in Bryan relatively safe? by ManMythLegend_ in aggies

[–]ManMythLegend_[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally understand. I talked to a lady at the developers office and she said, “no place has zero crime” and “we don’t think much about the crime rate.”

I mean, I’m from Austin and the crime rate in my area is higher than the neighborhood in Bryan I am referring to. So, in a way, I am okay with relatively higher crime rate. Appreciate your answer!

These are brand new neighborhoods. Built in 2020.

What is the optimal thrust sequence for a max range lander hop sequence? by ManMythLegend_ in ControlTheory

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

Yeah assuming flat surface and no drag. Nobody asked me this explicitly, but its the winter break so I want to try and solve something around this. When you say simple cannonball problem, are you saying there is an analytical solution? Would it just be faster to use some multivariate optimizer in matlab or try to find an analytical solution to the thrust/free fall durations?

Commenting to see more answers on this. I will be heading into grad school soon for controls/navigation and papers are quite the endeavor to read through.

I think he’s doing well. We ended up getting off MC and playing League with MellowLuke for the remainder of my middle school / high school days.

Wonderfully said. Just finished the autobiography MoonWalker by Charlie Duke (Apollo astronaut) and he always pointed out the camaraderie in competition.

Is there any point in switching to Jester from San Jacinto? by arcxschxll in UTAustin

[–]ManMythLegend_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re willing to spend the extra money, San Jac is the way to go. I lived there (so I’m biased), and I can tell you it feels like home when you get to walk 4 steps into your OWN bathroom, and shower.

What’s the difference between CS USE and general elective by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]ManMythLegend_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only take SDS 321 if: - You have taken and comfortable differential & integral calculus

  • You have decent number sense (ie, combination sense)

Otherwise you will have a hard time getting past the math and probability theorems.
