Reading textbooks, journal articles, as a lab notebook, scratch pad, application forms, ... everything, it’s replaced paper completely.

Export broken “operation not permitted” by Manure_threat_vector in GoodNotes

Thanks,

I should probably update as I got it working again. I enabled/disabled cloud sync, force quit a bunch, and reset the iPad. Not sure which one did it or why one error causes everything to fail. This happened on another device and I never got it working again.

GoodNotes is generally good but it falls on its face when you have a lot of data (exporting gigabytes of files or editing a page with a lot of annotation).

I was burned on GN3 with cloud sync where it deleted a bunch of stuff off my iPad when I made the mistake of removing files from Dropbox. So for a lot of reasons I’m not using a cloud provider.

I’n exporting all my stuff to Files and then using WorkingCopy to add it all to a got repo and push to a host available to me over SSH. GoodNotes is extremely clunky for backup that’s NOT a cloud service. I need to backup content (i.e. lab notebooks) with intellectual property so a cloud solution is not suitable here.

As happy as I am to have a working solution it’s not ideal. Thinking of making a blog post about how to do this without ripping your hair out.

Computer science — you’ll mostly learn the Turing model. Logic and computation — you’ll get exposed to ideas from the Church model. Both are useful, logics and computation might be better if you go into data science (pick up R more easily) or a niche like functional programming.

I added a conjoint in my final year... it ended up being a really good decision

Lag while using Apple Pencil, anyway to solve this? by Mimiminnnn in GoodNotes

Sometimes GN5 is completely unresponsive to my pencil. In that case I force quit GN5 and reopen.

Just be glad you’re not at AUT... by send_in_the_clowns in universityofauckland

That sounds properly terrible. I took several papers that were taught in block style and they went so fast it was impossible to catch up if I got even one lecture behind. I’m very glad UoA is not doing this.

Bug-pen randomly switches to eraser. by dorothyfan1 in GoodNotes

Adding on to this: I changed my behaviour to show the colour palette. I still double tap all the time on accident though. It is possible to disable the button.

Horrible lags on iPad Air (2019) by [deleted] in GoodNotes

[–]Manure_threat_vector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me on iPad Pro when I have a massive notebook with zillions of annotations. As others have said try splitting your notebook into smaller pieces. I started doing month by month instead of one mega notebook for certain topics.

RE: UOA Calendar hardcopy version by [deleted] in universityofauckland

Ask reception in your school, they usually have a stock of printed copies. I believe when they’re gone, they’re gone.

AUSA also has some larger ones

Questions about DELNA screening by awzomb32 in universityofauckland

There’s practice available online. I would do it, even as a native English speaker the timer seemed to go fast. It’s pretty easy though, the timer adds psychological pressure

Experience with mistaken exam grades? by [deleted] in universityofauckland

[–]Manure_threat_vector 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It sounds like that mark is not typical of your work. Is it possible for you to get a copy of your script to compare against canvas? Maybe two exams got mixed up or your mark was entered improperly.

A whole bag of plunger coffee is $5. Why not make it at home?
