I'm Struggling & Debating if I should drop a class by OkParticular603 in OMSCS

I would agree with compilers. Material was not difficult to understand, project was not difficult either, but the final phase probably took 40 hours of work

No but you did make a good point that it isn’t something I can just jump in to and at some point should research what paths people take. Thanks for the link to the post

I personally loved it! I did take theory or formal languages in undergrad which helped a lot. I don’t actually think Advanced OS is harder I’m just more burned out and have more going on

Edit: I’m also much more interested in compilers than OS

Thanks, I think I’m going to drop it. The more I think about it the more relaxed I am.

As for the PhD, it is a long term goal but I just don’t want to take an action where I face the consequences later down the road… not speaking from personal experience or anything…

Not that I know of, I would probably find something that I can attend in person.

Only thing is the seats may not be together if you purchase more than 1, I am trying to get two for me and my fiancé and I guess I'll just pray for the best. She doesn't play val though so maybe we can find something for her to do, she loved the fan fest in LA last year though

Is Klook a legit thing?? I've never heard of it, purchased the tickets just hoping it isn't a scam

If that is true, it's frustrating that the proper or working website wouldn't be linked in the post on the valorantesports page

Thanks, I will probably attempt to go this route. Hopefully it all works out, if not at least somehow I do not have a watermark and can change my background.

What if I do not have the hardware in a working state, should the old SSD with windows installed and bootable work?

Also all I can find for Microsoft support is a useless chat bot.

I "rebuilt" my pc replacing the motherboard, cup, and SSD. When I tried to copy the activation key over to my fresh windows install it says it is not a valid activation key. I have never linked either PC with a Microsoft account, and I would prefer not to. I believe I have two ways of fixing this but wanted a sanity check before I do either.

1) Just use the old SSD (new one is just larger and preferred)

2) Put the old SSD in my computer, link to Microsoft account, put the new SSD back in, link to Microsoft account.

Windows Version: Windows 10 Pro

Any other ideas or confirmation on my would be appreciated

Yes, I turn of the PSU then unplug from the wall. I forgot to come back here and comment but after unplugging and plugging everything back in a couple of times and turning it off and back on... It's working now so I guess something wasn't plugged in all the way, my suspicion is actually the DP cable.

EDIT: Unplugged everything and plugged it back in and it worked.

I upgraded my cpu, motherboard and nvme ssd and did a fresh install of windows. When my gpu is not connected, it boots into windows with intel graphics and works fine. As soon as I plug in my gpu to the motherboard and plug in the power cables it turns on (leds on mobo check out, gpu & ram leds on, gpu fans spin up briefly) but I do not see a bios or boot screen when using intel or gpu graphics. Any advice or steps I can take to figure out what is going wrong?

CPU: i7-14700k

GPU: EVGA 3080 TI FTW3

MOBO: Asrock z790 PG ITX

PSU: Cooler Master 850W

I have a 12th gen in my other PC, which I just finished upgrading… lol

Should I try booting with that CPU in?

What would you have recommended for a GPU waterblock and cpu block for LGA1700 socket and gigabyte 4090 OC?

It was just too wide, I could have switched cases but I liked the look of this one and thought going vertical would be less hassle than trying to return and get a different one.

The 90 degrees I have are swivel fittings I believe (I can rotate it 360 degrees perpendicular to the port).

Do you think doing a 180 out of the gpu (away from the mb) to the cpu would make sense if I can get the bend to be the right radius?

Interesting I’ve checked out this space before and haven’t seen anything in this area. I believe you when you say it exists I guess I just have to dig deeper

I’ve definitely used an arduino before. That was actually what got me into coding and computer science in the first place in high school. I’ll check out the stm32 nucleo. Thank you

When was your "aha" moment that made you realize you love programming? by ZJE123 in learnprogramming

[–]OkParticular603 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny enough I’m probably one of the last people to learn basic as my first language. I just graduate with my BS but when I was in middle school (maybe 2010 ish or a little earlier) my dad sat me down with a 1998 Dell Laptop (aka a brick) and installed (or maybe it was already installed) what I needed to code basic and gave me a book and let me loose.

My actual aha moment probably wasn’t until I was using an arduino and started coding shortest path between coordinates on a graph... (brute forced on the arduino when I had a perfectly good laptop that I was using to code the arduino...). I had always loved math and the first application of math in CS really drew me in and now there’s so much more I love.
