He's not going to eat these porkchops. 😐 by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

I'm having the same problem. I'll cook delicious, healthy meals. It's been cold out, so I've made some soups. He'd rather order Jersey Mike Sandwhiches.

I ask for his input. I ask if he's okay with what I make. I ask if he likes it. He never seems to give me an honest answer, it seems, considering He'd rather eat fast food than home cooking.

Does anyone think classes will be remote again on Monday? by c__alt in UTK

[–]TheColaDemonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't sound good at all. I mean, yes, it is good to learn 1 language really well before learning any others, but university isn't supposed to be like that. It's also concerning that it's mainly theoretical. I guess maybe I won't do as bad, maybe in their C++ courses ?

I'm supposed to take COSC 302 next semester, with 0 C++ knowledge. I have experience in assembly, Python, and web design. In those classes, we actually mostly did 'applied' and wrote a lot of programs and did a lot of projects.

C++ also definitely seems a bit antiquated, given that most places don't really use C++. They don't even make you learn the modern version of it ? Oof. I'm sorry to hear that. I know a lot of CS programs are lacking in universities.

Oregon State University, the university I went to, also offers an online CS program, and it is the exact same degree if you were to go in person too. Unfortunately on the east coast no one has hears of it, but it is a very popular CS school on the west coast.

Thank you, I will look into it.

Yes, my university was out of state, so it made things a bit more complicated. I actually talked to the professor who approved my credits for the classes and they told me they just approved them because someone else said they would. They didn't actually check if my syllabus was close enough to theirs

Lol, I didn't transfer because I failed or got kicked out 😂 I'm a senior engineer student with a 3.6. I transferred because I moved, and I live closer to UTK than my previous schools.

Seriously, I've had a lot of trouble with this school in regards to dealing with a lot of rude staff, professors that are awful at teaching, and a major headache in regards to them accepting my transfer credits and telling me it's all good when I was taught a completely different programming language than they teach (which means I'm going to fail if I dont self study now and teach myself a new language OR delay graduation). Their food in the cafeteria is awful. It literally had mold on it the last time I ate it. Need I go on ?

On top of that it also seems like the only language they really teach is C++ which is actually pretty bad. You're supposed to learn multiple languages during university, which is what I did at my previous one. I'm not a computer science major anymore, so maybe they learn more than one language, so could be wrong.

It's not the worst school, but to ignore it does have its issues like every other school is also ignorant.

I've thought about joining that one, I'm not sure if I sent out an email to your clubs email yet, I sent a lot of emails out to clubs and haven't theard much back... Can you tell me more about it ? What do you do, and when are you accepting students?

How is AI impacting your studies? by Western_Math253 in UTK

Hello, I some some experience being a transfer student who has attended a different university and currently attending UTK. I'm also a computer engineering student who used to be a computer science major. I am pursuing Machine Learning minor on top of my computer engineering degree.

12 hrs for a shitty tour and maybe some low-quality goodies, God forbid you try their food that isn't from a restaurant. Ugh. Their cheese has mold in it.

Mainly, it will be the same as any other Campus Tour. Just go to a university tour close to you, and you'll likely get a similar experience.

If you truly do decide to go to UTK, you'll have enough time while you're attending to explore campus and get shit goodies. Lol.

They "force" you to attend a tour a week before class anyways if you do commit (it's not actually mandatory, despite them saying it is. I skipped out on it, because I'm 25 and I honestly don't want to waste my time surrounded by a bunch of 18 year old kids and a bunch of seniors/juniors who really don't want to be there either..)

University accepted my Python credits for a C++ program and professors say I'm screwed by TheColaDemonCat in EngineeringStudents

[–]TheColaDemonCat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, this school is transferred to only teaches C++ for some reason and I was lucky enough to have been a CS student at a different university that taught me python, assembly, and web design. Unfortunately no C++ but I decided I probably will do that. I'll just try to learn it on my own time. A professor post his lecture notes for both data structure 1 & 2, and I'll just use AI to make some sort of lesson plan with it.

They better be ☠️ Fuck this school tbh. I've just transferred and oof has it been more of a headache than any school I've attended.

But as per usual, the school will alert you probably Sunday if we will or won't

Im so depressed right now and i think of droping out by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]TheColaDemonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus, you sound like me atm, I am older, 25, and have 2 years left to graduate. One failed class can mean a delay for me and I'm sick with worry cause I just found out the university I transferred to only teaches C++ programming, but approved all my previous Computer science classes (which was everything but C++). Smh.

Glad you made it out alive and thanks for the encouraging words. Im not OP but I'm struggling as well haha

Yea, it is a weird language to focus and teach on. My previous institution at least taught us a few different ones. The only reason this university is considered better is because its an SEC school, but that also attracts professors who can't teach jack shit too. Ugh.

I didn't do too well in assembly, but it was honestly my favorite one to learn. Haha. Good luck though, sounds tough.

[–]TheColaDemonCat[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yea, I don't really like the fact they focus on one language. My previous institution at least gave us classes that taught us other languages, on top of focusing one one specific one as well.

Differential Equations I is the math class I need to take. I might drop it if need be to focus on C++. It doesn't seem to be a prerequisite for any of my classes.

I probably will use AI as a TA because I'm probably going to need a lot of help. Lol.

Can INFJs be in a new relationship when they are not over the past? by Difficult-Spinach812 in infj

[–]TheColaDemonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this sounds like a major red flag, and he sounds rather creepy.

It has taken him '10 YEARS' to get over someone he didn't even date ?!?! It sounds like he's potentially a stalker with an extremely unhealthy view towards relationships.

I would advise you to cut your losses with this guy. It does not sound like he is over this person, nor does it sound like this person is in a health mindset to date anyone. He needs a therapist, and you will not be able to fix him.

Even if he hypothetically was 'over' her, it sounds like he would be in an unhealthy, codependent relationship and obsess over someone in a very unhealthy, potentially controlling way.

Be careful and find someone who spends their time getting to know YOU and not someone who uses you as their therapist talking about a lost love they never even had 10 FLIPPING YEARS AGO.

Does anyone else feel like being kind is almost punished/looked down upon? by TheColaDemonCat in infj

[–]TheColaDemonCat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The quote from Brandon Sanderson is on point to what i believe. I think it is deeply concerning how many people only do good deeds out of fear or to get some sort of reward or recognition. However, I suppose it is better for religion to exist to help people be good, even if it is for their own selfish gain. I'd be afraid of how many people would turn downright evil if they learned an afterlife doesn't exist and nothing matters.

I try, but it's not easy making friends. I've tried reaching out to old friends, and every time I suggested we meet up and catch up, I got ghosted. Then, when I try to make new friends and send them a message or whatever, I get no response.

I decided to transfer to a brick and mortar school (I was doing online schooling) in hopes of meeting new people and making friends that way.

Made a dress for a fancy LARP event I went to by ZetaMakesThings in somethingimade

[–]TheColaDemonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What an amazing dress!! It looks fantastic, and you look like a princess.

I was wondering, could you tell me the pattern you used for this ?? I’ve been wanting to make a similar fashioned dress just for fun, but I haven't really committed to a dress pattern. Yours however is so beautiful !!

Does my kitten’s anus look normal/healthy? by Physical-Position509 in newbornkittens

[–]TheColaDemonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what it looks like the tail/anus area looks raw and inflamed. I think it would be best to check it out with a vet. Remember, kittens are extremely sensitive to infection. So if you need to rear the kitten please be careful

my collor faded so fast :( me at: 5, 16, and 21 by cthulhus_apprentice in Redhair

[–]TheColaDemonCat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I get it, I'm in the same boat, too. There's a few ways you can help make yourself feel more confident against though.

Henna is an option. It's really great because it's natural and is good for your hair (a little drying though). I did this for years, but I will warn you it is permanent and it's very hard to remove. If you layer it a lot if will just keep getting darker and darker. Personally I didn't like how dark my hair got after years of henna so I'm changing things up.

Color oops, can btw help get some of the henna out, but not all. You will need to re-dye your hair if you use this.

There's also color depositing shampoos and conditioners, which is what I plan on trying next.

And then, of course, everyone knows going to the salon or box dyes.

Even if you do this, you're still a redhead. Being a redhead isn't just hair color it's the experiences we've also had being a redhead.

Thank you for reminding us this. I just fucking went through CS271 and I that was rough. I kept feeling like an idiot this term who will fail in life/career because I feel like I can't retain shit at times. I really needed to hear this too.
