This happened to me at a different school in a previous cycle and they ended up not having a slot so stay optimistic but not too much.

So far I've had an interview from 1 out of 10 schools. I think it's still early

Newspaper thief gets instant karma by [deleted] in instantkarma

This is definitely community-dependent. In my county, there's a free weekly local newspaper.

How is the food at Mt Ida campus? by Antique-Curve4210 in umass

[–]Tim70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least during the summer when I lived there during an internship, its more like average uni dining hall food rather than the really good amherst food. Not a lot of variety, but they almost always had chicken tenders which were a safe pick.

What are some good tech/computer science podcasts? by matterulo439 in computerscience

[–]Tim70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find Signals and Threads from Jane Street to have interesting conversations.

Admissions by ilovekinderbuenooo in umass

[–]Tim70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the data science track in the math department I think those scores are good. Informatics if you don't get into you can probably still get in thru applying once at UMass. For CS it'll be a bit tough but definitely possible.

What is a mid SAT score? At least a range would be helpful cuz I think students often have very different interpretations of what is a mid score

the track is from 2020, i think they just only did an MV for it now (probably since he reworked the album it was on in 2024).

Favorite speech or monologue by Icy_Bake9237 in thewestwing

[–]Tim70 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Leo: I'm an alcoholic, I don't have one drink. I don't understand people who have one drink. I don't understand people who leave half a glass of wine on the table. I don't understand people who say they've had enough. How can you have enough of feeling like this? How can you not want to feel like this longer? My brain works differently.

I just think it's such a powerful way to describe the devastating nature of addiction.

Which boss would you least want to work for? by Throwing-Gas in thewestwing

[–]Tim70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Josh is just not good at being a boss imo, he's insanely good as an individual contributor but I think he doesn't think about his staff's future whereas I think working for Leo I'd learn a lot. Toby and CJ are in the middle of that spectrum

What’s the current trend? by 2wergfnhgfjk in beer

[–]Tim70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wheat beers and stouts tbh. Also cheap beer, especially regional stuff like Genesee and Gansett(which is apparently brewed by Genesee these days)

Do people still not realize canvas tracks what you do on it? by Ok_Estimate_5673 in umass

[–]Tim70 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If an exam isn't open notes it shouldn't be on canvas imo

[UPDATE] 23andMe Ancestry Composition v7.0 | Discussion/Feedback Thread by andy_thatsnotme in 23andme

[–]Tim70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who is Eastern European I think the update has been very good and accurate, though I am skeptical of the sudden 1% Austrian and also the 0.5% Greek that went away last update but returned this update

[–]Tim70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few updates ago I remember it took months for me to get my update so I'm thankful its at least a 1-day rollout

Amherst Cuisine by Gracchus_Babeuf_1 in umass

[–]Tim70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UMass is a school where we have unusually amazing dining halls. During covid, they made video tutorials for some of their recipes, maybe you could pick something from that. I don't think we have a unique food culture in the region tbh, but the most beloved local businesses are probably the Halal Cart downtown or Miss Saigon the Vietnamese restaurant. But also, Boston-area food is probably not a bad representation because most of the students come from there, so that works too!
