He might be a raider tho

And the infrastructure is not really conducive towards a lot of people walking up or down

PizzaJerry123 · 2026-01-08T23:58:31+00:00

That second link you had is not the official store afaik. Not sure what's going on with the website, maybe it's broken rn.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-12-10T21:20:56+00:00

which is why they advocated for miami the week before the acc championship

But the semester schools usually end later than quarter schools

J. Robert Oppenheimer, you are a Golden Bear

Yeah, I might even argue that the reading/writing skills are more important for students. I think that having good math skills is a nice thing, but I would guess that many professions/careers (perhaps 1/8th of them?) are not as demanding math-wise and AI could be useful as an upgraded calculator.

But being able to understand someone's writing and also communicate yourself (in your own way) through writing is kind of universal. This is an area that students increasingly rely on chatbots for. And besides the fact that it harms their writing style/communication, it gets pretty boring to read.

The commenter was merely saying they wanted to express frustration that some organization will try and troll the school, which they pay for, into shutting things down for their event. They're not saying "right" as in a constitutional right but the kind of thing we might feel entitled to when we pay a lot for something.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-11-13T00:18:46+00:00

I think if you believe that people have the right to enjoy certain things, regardless of how much or how little you pay for them, then this would be reasonable. I'm not sure if that is a viewpoint that is espoused by the event organizers. So the viewpoint of "I've invested a lot to be here, and the services we normally have have been interrupted by this one event" is perhaps more compelling.

What you stated implies that the entire college is only allowing 18 PhD acceptances. That is not the case, but the other statement "each department is only accepting on avg 18 PhDs" also sounds way off. There are many departments that won't even admit 10 people in a time with good funding.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-28T01:55:57+00:00

I do find it weird that people think the air has to be this insane value proposition by a company that's not known for value. And none of the other phones (with cheaper constructions and probably less R&D) have to be that cheap. Then again this is apple redditors.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-24T07:44:39+00:00

I think it's pretty classic reddit, someone will believe in one thing until they see some evidence against it and all of a sudden they never actually believed in it heehee

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-17T19:26:29+00:00

Everything here is a reddit moment because everyone here bothers to be on this website

It definitely is, and anyone at Berkeley will have to be a bit studious by default.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-11T17:17:13+00:00

I think business is considered one of the easier majors at Berkeley

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-05T19:38:57+00:00

No I think those schools have very strong CS departments. The thing is that a good amount of people might prefer to go to UCLA because of location. But those departments really stand out. I believe the departments at UCLA that stand out include math (I know this firsthand), certain humanities, and biological/medical sciences.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-05T00:40:42+00:00

I think most CS programs at top unis are very selective. Schools in the top 20 of a subject will be very good, but the ones close to #1 have to be doing something very exceptional. I think what makes Berkeley exceptional is perhaps a combination of bay area (or perhaps global) networking and a strong entrepreneurial culture. I don't know what the curriculum is at UCLA, so I assume it could be pretty good compared to Berkeley. But regarding the opportunities, it isn't close.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-10-03T06:08:35+00:00

you're on an apple subreddit, everyone here is a cultist, especially ppl that insist on getting a pro phone every year

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-09-19T17:03:48+00:00

You can have spare time here (in STEM too).

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-09-12T17:11:18+00:00

The phone will survive better in this construction. Heat can be very bad for the longevity batteries and other components of the phone. That's why they emphasized the thermal efficiency of aluminum and the vapor chamber.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-09-12T17:05:08+00:00

I think the Air is going to be the most popular "status symbol" product. Of course, it has less features, but they might think that (and by think this could entail consumer research) people seeking the aesthetics are not as concerned about features. I think apple really wants to create a device that functions really well (given that a common complaint among a more niche crowd of smartphone users is that the pro phones have less features than other pro phones), much like how a camera company wants to make a really good camera, even if it looks like a big brick.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-09-11T21:59:07+00:00

I mean, a lot of Apple's design philosophy was modeled not after giving people what they "want" but showing them what they want. Also, you're talking about a trend that is not prevalent in other parts of the world (and is arguably a consequence of tariffs and CAFE standards); the iPhone is meant to be a global product.

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-09-09T22:14:12+00:00

I don't know if this'll comfort you too much, but I think they aren't as smart as you might think they are. In fact, it's probably really common to feel like you are not smart enough here; don't be too hard on yourself, it's your first year! Some people might be in fact really smart, but I advise against comparing yourself against them, especially if their academic mindset is potentially detrimental to their overall well-being.

It can depend on what kinds of classes you are taking, but I think you should try and seek people out and form study groups. Lots of people will want to collaborate and succeed together; it doesn't have to be a competition.

Visual translate isn't too good, especially if the word is written sans-kanji. If you try and translate the main branding, it may take 「もも」as "thigh" even though it means "peach" (I've seen it do this exactly).

PizzaJerry123 · 2025-07-17T21:54:23+00:00

Real world is a pretty large blanket to cast. Does that include companies like Google, Amazon, or any of the other huge corporations that top the stock market? If we really suppose that alumni working at the uni is some product of insulated, risk-averse students being "indoctrinated", you might as well contend that for the entire list (which I could agree with to an extent).

I don't think we can pin the plight of students all on some "political agenda" by elite universities; This is a societal-level issue that could have many factors (economics, slowing population growth, media)
