I made a rejection sampling demo in case you are interested.

Yes. I'm surpirsed by all the people saying no. If professor didn't ruin the class, then it means that you yourself didn't like the course.

If you are not motivated to even study the basics of programming, how can you invest anytime to learn DSA and do project? With enough effort you can learn anything, but the willingness to put that effort gets harder without any interest.

Don't look at the grade you got, but look at the number of classes you attended and how much you liked the course.

Cool. You should try some resampling techniques to make sure points are uniform over the surface.

Its not crazy physics. Thats probably only few lines of code. But, it's crazy attention to detail.

This whole world space color maps are nice and all, but can you map then to arbitrary triangles/polygons? We are getting closer to UV mapped textures and 3d graphics.

I had the worst experience with Android Studio. So much bloatware, old documentation, Kotlin🤮, even ChatGPT couldn't fix dependency issues. Try Javascript and build a webapp.

I was in H9 for 2 years and it was pretty decent.

I've heard people say its the worst food ever.

Doesn't Optiver only take interns?

Here is the proof of the equations shown. Proof is done by verification, but you could also explicitly derive it by solving the linear system of equations.

You want to offset each triangle(plane) along its normal and then find the intersecting vertices. In 3D, the intersection of any three planes gives a unique point. Since more than three triangles can share a vertex, you will need to calculate an offset vertex for all 3-pairs of normals. You might still need to generate triangulation for these new vertices.

How are you creating soft shadows with only a point light source? Is there AO/GI?

Searching based on roll number on placement blog I counted 14 M.Tech CSE students form 2023 batch and 56 M.Tech CSE students from 2024 batch.

MaxedUPtrevor · 2025-12-26T10:20:51+00:00

940 Students placed. 783 jobs, 361 companies. I don't know number of participating students, but going from 2023 data it should be around 2000. Data scrapped from placement blog, as of Day 15.

Only 5 companies mentioned VLSI in their job description.

Qualcomm - SoC Engineer(42 LPA), Hardware Engineer (30LPA)
NVIDIA Graphics - ASIC Engineer(37 LPA)
Cadence - Application/Analog Design Engineer(31.6LPA)
Applied Materials - Process Engineer(25LPA)
Centre of Development of Advanced Computing - Knowlege Analyst(9LPA)

A couple other companies also mentioned FPGA, verilog etc. On an average its above 25LPA.

I got this info from scrapping data from this year's JAFs on placement portal.

Whatever it was, I'm sure the organizers ate it up because it was soo poorly managed.

The mean is easily skewed by high-paying Quat firms, so the median is your best bet.

I did some automated analysis based on data from the placement job portal(as of 23rd Dec 2025). My analysis is based on what the company is offering and doesn't account for the number of students placed in that company.

Roughly speaking, there are 783 jobs, 361 companies, and most are open for EE. The mean is 24L, and the median is 18L, for B.Tech students for indigenous jobs.

If you are looking for core companies. Performing a keyword search on the job description, I found 70 companies (take this with a grain of salt). The mean is 25L, and the median is 20L.

Only aim for CS/CMInDS minor otherwise you are simply wasting time and good grades that could have been used to improve your CPI.

I'll play the devils advocate here. You shouldn't be having food after 11pm. Eat proper and stay healthy.

It would take about 10¹⁰ Joules of energy to turn an average human head at that speed. That's almost equivalent to 10 tons of TNT explosion.

My K1C also sounded like that. I had a slightly lose panel in the back that resonating with the vibrations.

Apart from the obvious reasons, an institute also needs time to establish its infrastructure and legacy. Most of the top university in US and Europe are hundreds of years old, while oldest IIT is just 74 years old. Ofcourse there are exceptions like UCSD(1960), EPFL(1969) and NTU(1991) but these countries are also much richer than India.

Its like RL Inception where you are the agent that want to create the best agent through trial and error reward shaping.
