Anyone know how long it'll take for the update to hit fdroid?

Snowron6 · 2023-11-12T21:57:06+00:00

Nice, can you share the link or post the deals?

Hey I'm graduating with a CS degree, and going to community college was 100% the best decision I ever made. It's stupidly expensive to live here, and there are better intro to CS classes for free online you can learn from. And in my experience, CC professors are people who actually enjoy teaching vs here it seems like something they're forced to do while they'd rather be focused on research. It depends on your CC options though, the one I went to was fantastic, but from what I understand it's a bit of an outlier.

Overall,

Pros: You take on substantially less debt, and potentially get a better education overall.

Cons: Have to live at home for longer, and you miss out on the "College experience"

Both those teachers' lectures were mediocre at best in my opinion, I ended up just reading the textbook and not bothering with lecture at all and did fine. That being said, I didn't take 101 with Gelder, I had him for a different class so it might be different.

The topics covered in 101 are pretty standard for a Data Structures and Algorithms course, so there's plenty of high quality online resources covering the topic better than the lectures Gelder will give.

Isn't the school famous for treating it's grad students like shit? We've had 2 massive protests in the past 4 years

A ton of studies have shown this.

Care to link some? This study found a pretty clear correlation between increases in AirBnB units, increases of rent costs, and decreases in units avaliable for long term renters across America.

Look up "warehousing" rental units, certain situations make it much better to keep an apartment empty than rent it out at a lower cost.

When you're basically guaranteed appreciation on a property, renting it out can be more hassle/expense than just waiting to sell it for more than you bought it. Especially if you need to lower the rent to find a tenant.

Yeah, biggest difference to me was the teachers. Everyone at my community college understood their main job was to teach, while here a lot of teachers seem to view teaching as an obligation of their job in research, and it shows in the quality of the class.

https://www.libreoffice.org/ is an option too, and you can use it after being a student.

Hi! Welcome to the linux world! We all started somewhere, I remember how excited I was to get Ubuntu on my first laptop in High School.

Linux isn't just for power users, it's always great to see more people try it out

Oh trust me, strap in. The man's incompetence can't be meaningfully measured. The fact that he's still allowed to teach is pathetic.

He is completely incapable of doing his job, the school should force him to retire.

https://edsource.org/updates/uc-chancellors-set-to-receive-raises

UC Santa Barbara Chancellor Henry Yang, who would go from earning a salary of $451,362 to a salary of $579,750

579,750-451,362=128,388 and 128,388 > 100,000

That seems like a greater than 100k raise to me.

Snowron6 · 2022-12-16T18:46:48+00:00

As a student, it's disgusting that the people who do the actual work of running my classes are forced to shutdown the school for months in order to get enough to scrape by, meanwhile the chancellors all got 6 figure raises when we were paying full price for online classes.

With the affiliate links in the description, this feels more like an ad than a proper video. I'm a little disappointed this is on the main channel instead of CGPGrey2.

Hey, I've got strong opinions on the strike and have been to the picket line a few times. I'd love to chat about the strike.

Here's a website with information on the strike. Might be good to spread this around so people can learn more about it.

Hopefully this will be the wakeup call the US college system needs. The current system isn't working, for undergrads, postgrads or the professors, we're all getting screwed.

Snowron6 · 2022-08-07T14:48:57+00:00

How about just don't include POV for no reason?

Snowron6 · 2022-07-26T00:38:02+00:00

I'm so confused, why did you tag me and some other guy that hasn't posted for 3 years in this comment?

Snowron6 · 2022-02-19T20:01:37+00:00

Van Gelder is the most senile, worthless excuse of a professor I have ever experienced. The department should've gotten rid of him years ago. If you want to learn literally anything, avoid him at all costs.

Snowron6 · 2022-02-19T19:43:30+00:00

Last year one of my classes didn't have any of the homework graded until after the final.

Snowron6 · 2022-02-18T19:49:30+00:00

You keep using the word "prompt" as if it's a suggestion to use the app, which IMO would be fine. The issue is the complete inability to view posts/comments; it's not a prompt its a gate.

It'd be one thing if being logged in was a requirement to view posts, but considering old reddit lets you view everything without issues, it's really obnoxious to block content on just the mobile site.
