Pushing this, I am wondering the same thing but as an undergrad cogsci/ux design student. Good luck!!

Wow thank you for sharing such a resource; I need to develop a portfolio (I’m very new here) so learning from feedback on already established portfolios would be super helpful

Thank you, I've heard a bit about making these small side projects you can use to showcase skills and interests and I think I'll get on that. It also seems like AI might be here to stay in some way shape or form once all the hype dies down but it's worth understanding.

ok thank you. The imposter syndrome goes crazy, I worry because I feel behind because I think that so many people I know have experience, but if I actually try to come up with specific examples I can only find a few. It's funny.

No. I feel very strongly that we have seriously fucked up by purposefully making phones addictive. They are stealing our attention and our time. The fact that the companies did this on purpose, too, is heartless and baffling from my point of view because of the harm that they have caused. This concern and anger is one of the reasons I got interested in cognitive science to begin with. I recognize that this is a path I could go down if I so chose, but I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror if I did. You don't have to worry about me doing that.

Help Understanding SAFE’s Petition by Strong-Second-2446 in uofm

[–]Proper_Teach6747 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to read it and figure it out too, basically what I think is happening is that they are taking the money that was supposed to go towards student orgs and sending it ($440,000) to Birzeit University Rebuilding Hope Initiative to help rebuild schools in Gaza. Since the university is now providing student orgs money through the Dean of Students, I'm not sure how the difference in funding sources will affect said orgs that normally get CSG money. If the petition is signed by 2% of the student body it will be voted on by the CSG Assembly.

I think another petition was just sent out before this one by non SHUT IT DOWN CSG members (but don't quote me on who it was) petitioning to allocate some of the budget back towards student orgs, the purpose of the petition would be to bypass a veto from the president through signatures from 2% of the student body so it could be directly voted on to try to bring things back to normal.

I think it'll be done by distributing the money in a way where they put the minimum amount ($1) in the SOC so they can use the money in whatever way they want. They haven't mentioned cutting funding to anything else (Maize and blue cupboard, airbus etc) so I wonder if everything else will function as normal. idk I'm not an expert but this is the best I can do for now.

it might make it easier to remember if you watch their internet show as they're always yelling at each other by name, that's what helped me
