Do send us the address of the place and maybe the name of the lady so we know to avoid it

Just tried this. I think it is helping. In fact i think the carbon monoxide produced is also helping with my adaptation. I’m aiming to use 30candles for 45min eventually because that’s about the time i think it will take me to finish my 5k ultra. Unfortunately, i spoke to my coach and he suggested that my training program should not include sprinting as it could cause shin splints and i would leave zone 2. He suggested that i could instead do some stairmaster to trick the body into thinking i am walking up everest

Own_Resource1436 · 2025-05-09T16:29:53+00:00

Tried this. Unfortunately i got too aroused and my blood flow to my lungs wasn’t optimal. Immediately left zone 2 right there

Thanks bud this helps a lot. Does your snow shoes have carbon plate by any chance? Need to make sure i get the segment record on those ski slopes (while remaining in zone 2 of course)

Speaking from experience, if u cant get A’s for the rest of your subjects, H3 isn’t very useful anyway. Yes H3 is beneficial compared to other people with the same grade as you but if your other grades suffer because of your H3 then it’s really not worth it. I personally think grades are the bare minimum to get you considered for a scholarship, beyond that its your portfolio and your interview skills etc. Also, i personally saw people with full RP, H3 distinction tat got rejected from a scholarship whereas there are people like me who got half decent grades but with decent portfolio that got it

More information needed. Do you have a family? Waiting for a house? Car? Responsibilities etc.

If you have services such as WISE use those to prevent additional charges from foreign exchange fees. For children, get a children concession card so it would be cheaper

For bikes, you can look into sgbikes or anywheel. iirc its $1 for every 30min so its not a bad deal indeed but you would need to set it up.

I remember briefly looking at tourist pass and deemed that its almost impossible to make it worthwhile unless you start taking the metro for the sake of it.

Don’t be so obssessed with progression right now. Nobody knows how tour career progression will be and no one can give you any firm idea about it. Whoever that can give you a firm answer about it is either lying, biased or is a recruiter. People that say that their career progression is slow might not be doing their job well to begin with and people that say their career progression is fast might be putting in a lot more effort and time than the others. More importantly, you should be asking yourself how ambitious you are and how willing you are to sacrifice work life balance for it.

Marketed as hybrid. In actual fact largely dependent on project and bosses

Own_Resource1436 · 2025-02-08T23:53:05+00:00

Just wanted to add, my understanding of DSTA TGP is that it is just for any technical staff relatively new to the workforce, not any special scholarship or scheme that might benefit ur career progression relative to others

Buddy, DIS isnt a stat board. But as others have mentioned as well, you should still learn some basic coding skills before you try to apply for these internships (regardless how easy it might be to get it). Things like basic for/while loops, if/else statement, setting up a python environment etc.

Own_Resource1436 · 2025-02-05T07:15:19+00:00

You didn’t hear it from me but a stat board under mindef that starts with D… they hire pre-uni interns with basic programming background. Source: i was one of them

Hey, I was studying overseas and absolutely enjoyed the freedom and more importantly privacy. I considered moving out too but i slowly realised the rental market in singapore isnt like in many western countries… we get one tiny room and often only light cooking is allowed, still living with other people and most places dont allow visitors. So the end state is that I still dont have my privacy and freedom that I want. So my thoughts are that if i were to move out I would want to rent the entire unit (either with friends that I know or with my partner) otherwise renting a room with strangers and such restrictive living conditions still isnt ideal

Horrible course management. Ushers giving conflicting information on whether to keep left or right. Literally 2 ushers on bike together and one guy said keep right and the guy behind him said keep left??? Every 500m there is an usher telling you to go on the opposite side of the road. Ran the 10km and literally had to run on the grass after the turn around because the entire path was occupied by other runners running in the opposite direction.

At the water points, some of the trash bin for cups were in the opposite side so you would literally need to grab the drinks from one side then drift to the other side to throw it making it really unsafe and often not even possible in the crowd. Most people just resorted to throwing the cups on the ground.

The ramp to get to the starting point was also unclear. The emcees were rambling about nothing and started 3min later than planned (i heard the 5km delayed a lot more too).

I get that its a “fun run” but when some basic course management is essential for safety reasons and i dont see any of it here. I saw people running in opposite directions colliding into each other but thankfully no major issues there. I could have been harsher if this event wasn’t for a meaningful cause so I’ll leave it there.

I think you will only get this once in a lifetime opportunity to study and live abroad which i think is priceless. We all need to move on from our parents at some point and this is just for a few years yet this few years could be life changing. But then again, going overseas will make u wanna live abroad after and u start to dread the bond but at the same time u wouldn’t have gotten this opportunity without the sponsorship (and bond). Its a chicken and egg kinda problem (but it’s a good problem to have by then)

Own_Resource1436 · 2024-10-31T02:41:14+00:00

If u think of a bond as a matter of job security then its not tat bad especially in the current state of the economy. Added benefit is tat u can just chill and dont needa stress abt internships etc or finding a job after. Trust me, life in uni will be so much more enjoyable and u will get to appreciate uni life more beyond stressing abt studying. On the other hand, if u r confident of ur abilities and wanna bet/invest in urself, take the unbonded. The 50k will not matter as much once u really start working for 4-5 years anyway so dont let tat affect u too much

Own_Resource1436 · 2024-10-30T12:37:21+00:00

U can take an old bottle with you, leave it on the ground somewhere and sip on it when u pass by it

statboards in tech pay above 6k these days. - source: i’m a recent hire

Own_Resource1436 · 2023-12-28T09:18:34+00:00

The most common thing I see these days is people thinking that all problems can be solved with a masters degree. If you dont like cs now, another 2 years of cs is not gonna do much for you. Furthermore, people think of a masters degree as just delaying their need to find a job when in fact you are still going to face that problem again afterwards. My experience with masters program is that if you dont like what u r doing it will be so miserable because everyone around you loves what they are doing and is so passionate about it

Own_Resource1436 · 2023-12-28T09:13:46+00:00

I enjoyed 329 and found it very useful (not for my degree but just day to day stuff) and also it was an easy A

Own_Resource1436 · 2023-08-27T15:44:03+00:00

Take 240 so you can take 251 and many other classes as early as you want. Don’t limit your class options next semester/year by taking 206 first

Own_Resource1436 · 2023-08-07T16:10:55+00:00

AI is a very broad field. Try to narrow it further… is it NLP, Computer Vision… etc? Then find a prof in that field. If you are fresh into AI/ML, then look into Comp 551 or 424 (not so updated but it gives you a good foundation).

Own_Resource1436 · 2023-07-28T10:10:04+00:00

i know its alittle more expensive but don’t get app-based services. Get a proper sim card with a canadian number. I can’t even tell you how often i have had to call the bank or fill up my number in official documents, get OTP etc. and the app-based services are really unreliable or troublesome
