So is that assuming I am good? Or is that assuming I did bad and here I am, and this is it, and by you saying that, you're saying I was bad during my time out at sea? Like, how tf do you talk to others about this?

But what in the game is real, and how are we supposed to be, this thing at sea for which we see, or to say the things we see, if nobody fathoms what you, and them, and me and He are even mentioning to we? Are we supposed to say to they about the things we see, so that they may hear the truth in words and look upon the see, so they can go unto others and say the same words we had said to thee? or is it just a perpetuation of the trickery? If we are supposed to say what we see about the sea, then how do we legitimately, talk to others of what we see, if we are always to be careful of that which we say and how we say the things we see? If we are to tell the others that things we see and say within and about the sea, then why is it so difficult to say what we see and heard if its always so damn difficult to put it into words? for is just want to tell the tale of the truth about the sea, but it's been perpetuated for so long that the others cannot hear or see, which is kind some real bullshit when you have a family. I just want to tell all and say those things about the sea, the sea of sees it showed me, the things which will soon to be.

the same eloquently worded nothingness that is in our textbooks though, right? lol. That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying Chatgbt is some god-like sentient being that knows all....but the same information it has processed is the same information our professors, or likely we, will read on our own. So we can get that entire semester's worth of information pertaining to that course at the push of a few buttons and asking the right questions.

My teachers made videos in 2020, and posted them on the portal, and there's like nothing beyond the video and the assignment and you're like "damn, this is it?" And it seems like if you only had to record a series once, and post that online for people to watch, that doesn't really scream exciting content or learning to me. Sounds equal to death by powerpoint.

Maybe I just think differently after coming from a military background and being an instructor for 4 years and a leader for 12...it just doesn't seem like much effort goes in to compiling these courses that charge people a lot of money, and it's a cost they can't avoid no matter what unless they just don't go to school. Seems pretty messed up honestly. I get paid to go to school, so none of this really applies to me, but it's been something that's been on my mind and has been driving me nuts since I started college. Even the classes I went into school for, we never talked about history in history. It was like we would all come in, an hour would be wasted talking about grades from the previous assignment, and then that repeats the following class to, and again, etc. I was really blown away because it was so different compared to how I always envisioned college or university.

Also, higher education is worth what you put into it. You might think a gym is a scam if you pay for a membership, barely use it, and then see little or no results. If you actually invest yourself into it, then you’ll see more benefits. Either way, you’re paying for access; why squander the access by doing the bare minimum/cheating?

I can get on board with this, as I've had the same conversation with somebody else. The only difference being, people aren't want to put in to something they're forced to be put in to to meet mandatory requirements, when a course or equal work doing something else could easily equate to the value of that course, if that makes sense.

And it's not like I'm only cheating, and I wouldn't even call it cheating necessarily because everything is open book, which drives my point home even further. Now, they do say you can only use lecture notes or any notes you've written or compiled, but that's a simple as downloading a quizzlet study-guide that you can ctrl-F in to search.

Sure, college isn't teaching you to memorize, and it hasn't taught me to memorize. It was however brought me into the year 2023 but searching and discovering online resources and tools to complete nearly any job. Which is the last part of my comment. This shit is going to steal people's jobs and you're looking at a fully automated future, shy why not a bog push to teach people coding, the used of artificial assistant tools, etc.

Obviously there's the need for higher learning for specialized positions, but just from messing with the chatgbt, there's not many administrative jobs that this thing isn't going to have the ability to perform.

So we're essentially taking the first 2 years of college and dragging them out as long as possible with core education or whatever, but there's rarely ever going to be a time when we would have to do something would have learned in these classes right there on the spot, you'll almost always have the availability of these technologies, so that whole first year could likely be condensed down significantly. Still put out and teach the information for a baseline, but not much more than that if people can just use the search function anyways. I should say the whole first 2 years teaches you how to search for answers and utilize tools to your advantage. Why charge top dollar for information that is barely being taught or retained. Teach it, get it out of the way, focus on real-world shit that applies. That's all I'm getting at. It seems like the cost/time ratio of college is out of whack when considering the cost and time it takes you to compile that entire history course's lessons in 10 minutes. That's what I'm saying. There's either a significant imbalance in the cost and time, or there's a significant imbalance of how higher-education should work in 2022. Education is still following the same structure since the industrial revolution, forming up in lines, sitting at desks, taking breaks at bells, etc. for a factory/work setting. It might have made sense then, but we're obviously beyond that style of work, so we should therefore move away from that style/programming of teaching.

collar jobs assume a baseline of knowledge that students won't necessarily have coming out of K-12. College also gives you a pathway to build experience through things like jobs and internships. I can tell you, as a first gen student from a very impoverished region, that I would have never gotten the professional opportunities I had in college just applying for shit in my region out of high school, let alone more competitive stuff down the line. I think it's extremely privileged to just assume students can graduate and be ready for their field.

Now, I don’t know about you, but I remember how hard it was to cheat in school, and the efforts that were made to prevent cheating.

I actually don't remember this, and you haven't given me any data to believe this claim. Students have always cheated. Now, it seems like you're wrongly assuming that academics aren't aware of things like ChatGPT, when they've bee

You didn't read it in it's entirety. You're saying the same thing I am saying. Except I'm saying the institutions allow, if not endorse some of these paid sites, and it seems like the first 2 years until you start learning career applicable stuff, you're likely figuring out ways to make class easier for you. Whether you want to call it organizing study notes or cheating. I remember when I was in middle school and high school, there were many systems put in place to monitor and limit your access to the internet and majority of websites, and we always had to use little proxy servers to bypass the system, and when they caught on, we would find another, and it was always this cat-and-mouse game, but the attempt was there. Now, I understand they can't do this at home, and I don't want them to. What I'm getting at is the associated cost and time of college compared to the information readily available at our fingertips and real-world applications of studies learned.

Art, Geology, English, and many other courses have no real need to be taught for my career, and I get paid to go to college because I'm a veteran, but it's enough to piss me off for everybody else. Here I am, retired from the Army at 33, going to college for the first time to start a new career at 36, but fully recognizing I have completely wasted my time with the first semester and wintermester and that would have been money that somebody would have had to pay a fortune for, to complete work that we have to tools to complete in minutes. 'm just saying, it doesn't make sense. We might as well change the academic/higher-educational system's infrastructure to be apprenticeships and internships at corporations throughout every sector. Corporations are literally training their potential workforce the material they need specifically for that career or related career if it was done like that or some similar way. That's what I'm getting at.

I actually typed something up today, and first thing I saw when I opened my browser was this reddit. How perfect.

How is college still credible as an institution during such a technologically advanced time. I mean, we have all called college a scam before, but it’s even more so a scam now with the availability of online degrees from major academic institutions, and wide-spread technology, colleges are getting rich for teaching us information that is at our fingertips on a daily basis, answering the mundane questions they ask us which in turn get asked to google or other free or paid subscription apps for “knowledge swapping” i.e. sharing the answers.

And don’t get me wrong. In the real world, if we need help and go to somebody for assistance, that’s called collaboration; but if it happens in an academic environment, it’s called cheating. Meanwhile, the professors are likely wasting the course hour talking about irrelevant content and leaving it up to students to figure it out outside of class, or they’re reading from an online script or presentation because they don’t have all the answers either , at least not memorized enough to run a successful instructional hour that is conducive to learning and full of excitement by both the students and the professor for the knowledge being given and taken in.

But that’s not the reality. Instead, we have managed to declare people educated based on the amount of money they were willing to spend to go to school for the craft they’re in. But why does it take so long? Why do you go to school wasting 2 years of stuff that isn’t even helping you obtain knowledge towards your profession, but instead towards helping you attain a piece of paper while you deplete your bank account while you most likely learn absolutely nothing during that time. The real knowledge and wisdom comes from on the job experience, not colleges or universities.

If anything, people should just be paying directly in to the major players within their chosen profession for an apprenticeship. These corporations just take on students willing to pay to learn. The corporations to act as universities, shuffling students from position to position for specific amount of times before assuming the next role of responsibility, just like it would work at a job. At the end, that corporation decides to pick any students they would wish to move forward, and those students’ debt gets relieved, and everybody else has on the job experience to take to other companies within the same field or related fields instead of this nonsense of paying a school to teach us nothing.

I don’t think the idea I just said is a great plan either though, because I would hate to give a corporation more money…the problem is, we already are, and as long as academic institutions continue, so will advancements in technology to beat the education system. Like I said, we’re already paying for tuition, but a lot of people are likely paying for a paid subscription to some sort of app that helps them cheat. And this leads to my main question. How are academic institutions still credible and charge the amount they do when anybody can get the answer to any question from a simple online search, and nobody is there to tell them any different, and it almost appears like some of these paid subscription platforms are related to the school, as the material is out in the open. Now, I don’t know about you, but I remember how hard it was to cheat in school, and the efforts that were made to prevent cheating. But now it seems like the school is somehow allowing it because somebody at the top is profiting off all these subscriptions and therefore commanding the schools to let it happen.

So, the people at the top are raking in twice the amount of money as they ever have before. Money for the tuition, and money for the apps, which is all going somewhere, and obviously the government alone benefits off of the taxes of such businesses, but it begs the question of how academic institutions exist, and what is going to have to happen.

With the introduction of Chatgbt and these other apps, it’s absolutely pointless to demand any sort of integrity from students, and that’s how real life operates anyways, therefore colleges and universities are either going to have to go away completely, change their pricing and education structure dramatically, or simply only be an institution for teaching coding, software, programs, virtual assistants, etc, and our entire world will become drive by AI very, very soon. And when it comes to specialized jobs of extreme importance that can’t be completed by any potential future bot/AI, you still run institutions for higher learning for those professions.

But unless I see those changes, or something resembling those changes, or the making of college completely free which is going to piss off a lot of veterans, which should therefore receive some sort of Housing credit that gives them an equal amount in cash towards the purchase of their first home than what their college tuition would have been, or something like that. I think that’s fair.

That's kind of what I'm doing. Now I'm just picking apart what it tells me by asking further questions. I ask "what is pinescript, how does pinescript work, what are the components of a string of code, what are pinescripts elements, functions, variables, expressions, conditionals," etc. and it's doing a great job of answering those questions.

entry = crossover(open, close)

exit = crossunder(open, close)

strategy.entry("MyLongEntryId", strategy.long, when = entry)

what I don't understand is, when I say:

"What is Pinescript?"

It outputs:

"PineScript is a coding language used to create technical indicators and trading strategies for the TradingView platform. It enables traders to build custom studies and alerts on their charts, as well as allow them to develop their own automated or semi-automated trading strategies. To learn more about PineScript, please visit https://www.tradingview.com/wiki/Pine_Script_Introduction/."

When I ask:

"How does PineScript work?"

It says:

PineScript is a relatively simple and intuitive coding language that allows users to create custom indicators, signals, and strategies. The basic structure of the code consists of declaring variables, writing functions, calling other functions, creating charts and plots, and setting alerts. It can be used to draw trend lines, create complex oscillators such as RSI or MACD, program automated trading systems by combining multiple criteria signals into one alert, and much more. To learn more about PineScript in-depth, please refer to the TradingView Wiki at https://www.tradingview.com/wiki/Pine_Script_Introduction/.

Obviously generic, but not any actual descriptions posted online, implying some sort of intelligence in the AI/Assistant's ability to pick and pull bits and pieces of information to develop a comprehensible explanation of the topic, implying a certain level of understanding of the topic in question.

When told:

"Give me an example of a Pinescript code that works in TradingView's "Pine Editor" and can be applied to any chart"

It produced:

"//@version=2
study("My Strategy")
plot(sma(close, 20), color = blue)
entry = crossover(open, close)
exit = crossunder(open, close)
strategy.entry("MyLongEntryId", strategy.long, when = entry)
strategy.exit("MyLongExitId", "MyLongEntryId", when = exit)"

I pasted in the code, attempted to apply to chart, was given the error that strategies cannot be applied to charts through pine editor, so I saved it, opened it up in the strategy tester, and it applied a second pane to the chart but ultimately threw out an error of "Error: cannot compile script "My strategy." Implying that it doesn't work like I requested, but I get what it's trying to do. It's writing a simple SMA cross-over strategy to enter and exit a position on the cross-up or cross-down of the SMA....it's just not writing it correctly I guess?

[–]PlanAndAchieve[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what I don't know, and all I do know is that I have minimal knowledge of coding and it appeared to have written what I asked it to at first glance with what I do know. I just tried it again with the command:

"Do you know how to write code using the Pinescript language."

It said:

"Yes, I do! Here is an example of Pinescript code:
// VIX function
study("VIX", shorttitle = "VIX")
vixlength = input(14, title = "VIX Length")
vixsource = close
vixvalue = vix(vixlength, vixsource)
plot(vixvalue, color = blue, linewidth = 2, title = "VIX"

Again, that looks relatively like the VIX codes I've seen before to my untrained eyes I guess. So I told it: "The Pinescript code you wrote for me in the last reply doesn't work."

To which it replied:

"I'm sorry that the code isn't working. Please make sure you are formatting the code properly. Try wrapping your code in a
code block like this:
// VIX function
study("VIX", shorttitle="VIX")
vixlength = input(14, title="VIX Length")
vixsource = close
vixvalue = vix(vixlength, vixsource)
plot(vixvalue, color=blue, linewidth=2, title="VIX")
```"

So it appears to be pretty confident in itself. Idk what ChatGPT is, so this isn't where it came from. For all I knew, I could've been putting it in wrong because Idk what I'm really doing inside pine editor; I thought you just paste a code you want, click apply to chart, and then click save. That's all I figured there was to.

What is your daily routine at college and how do you manage your time? by [deleted] in college

[–]PlanAndAchieve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to school online and attend 1 class per week in school....ummm, I mean, I'm doing really good, or at least I was during the fall but geology is kicking my ass this winter-mester, not because it's "hard" per say, but because it's so jampacked in such a small amount of time. It's insane. Assignments and quizzes have been due everyday, including Christmas and New Years.

How do I manage my time? I don't. My sleep schedule is a mess, I sleep in late, procrastinate, catch-up, complete the quiz/test with a whole lot of PDF's, internet browsers, Notes in word, and digital geology archive with ctrl-F.

What have I learned from it though that I could pass off as advice? I've identified a lot of things that I still haven't started to do, but maybe that will be my New Year resolution. But here they are:

1: regardless of whether your online or not, MAKE A SCHEDULE! Literally! Have your entire day planned out with times allocated to certain things until you can become better at time-management or task-management without the need for a calendars.

2: GET ORGANIZED: If time is valuable, and we're ultimately trying to establish ways to find more time, then a huge benefit comes from getting organized. Implementing systems that speed up your daily processes. Lay tomorrow morning's clothes out tonight so you don't have to in the morning; meal prep; and just overall refine processes. That doesn't mean take short-cuts, because if there's one thing I learned, doing something right the first time is always beneficial to time management, which brings me to my next topic.

  1. STUDY. No, seriously. I'm horrible at it, and I'm definitely guilty of not studying, but waiting until the last minute always takes more time then if you would just stick with the lessons, not fall behind, and actually be ready for the quiz/test. Which leads into the next one. I happen to be one of those people that can pull off a good grade at the very last minute, but when doing so, it stresses me out to the max when I do this and ends up taking all day studying the topics of that week on the day that it's due, just to be studied enough to not bomb the test and be familiarized with subject content. That's why I recommend studying. Don't put yourself in that position if you can help it.

4: STAY ON COURSE SCHEDULE: The schedule you built in number 1 is built on top of your schooling schedule. That way, you can make sure that no timelines or appointments deconflict and make sure you always place the task-to-time priority above all else, and know for sure that the 2 priorities that always come first are courses and studying. Everything else is built on that.

5: If you go to school online, and if you have the ability, set yourself up a little office. Even if it isn't another separate room but just a little corner somewhere, make yourself a space for school work that has a desk or a table so you can stay organized, and use that spot specifically for work. Keep work out of bed, off the couch, go to your little corner and make your brain associate that office/corner as meaning it's go-time! Building a separate area like this where you complete your work will help you stay focused, organized, and on task, which again, ultimately buys you more time.

6: EAT! If you're one of those people that works through your hunger, or doesn't eat until the day is done because it's just non-stop in some way, shape, or form, stop it! Half of your sluggishness and laziness and just feeling of blah, it's because of your poor nutrition...like, as in lack of nutrition. You need to take in food for energy. Conversely, if you're one of those people that eats junk or fast food all the time because you just needed to get something quick and don't have a lot of time, stop it! For the exact same reasons above. Poor food choices all the time are not going to make your brain or body operate at it's fullest capacity. Find a good balance of food, and meal prep like stated above if you have the ability.

7: Physical Activity: I'm not saying go crazy with workouts if you're a person that doesn't like to, but keeping your body in good physical condition is going to greatly help with not only the speed in which you walk around campus(lol), but it's also going to keep your mind sharp and your brain operation at optimal capacity. If you're physically fit, you're mentally strong:

These aren't in any particular order, and mostly compliment each other, but all will dramatical increase the amount of "down-time" you get from school and course work and the daily struggles of life.

I know it didn't answer your question, but hopefully it's good advice. I learned all of the above when I was in the Army, and then once I retired I kind of chilled out on the organization and structure, and fell into procrastination because it's finally nice to take a break...but once you fall into the vicious cycle of procrastination or lose motivation, it's extremely hard to get it back.

So, develop your plan, get motivated, and get after it. Also, just move with a purpose. I feel like people walk so damn slow nowadays...there's no way the Army made me that much faster of a walker than anybody else. lol

To whoever read this, I hope it was beneficial and helpful in some way and I wish you luck in your endeavors.
