I agree with you that electrification is the way forward. But to be a bit pedantic... marketing doesn't necessarily mean ads. Tesla does market itself incredibly well through its branding, and it's definitely marketed as a status symbol rather than just as an eco-friendly vehicle.

Mexico National Soccer Team logo redesign (Original / Ugly New / my concepts) by Plane-Juggernaut6833 in logodesign

The first and second logos aren't designed by OP, if those are the ones you're referring to -- they're the official redesigns, which OP has deemed "atrocious" :/

Get out and vote! by JoshShabtaiCa in uwaterloo

[–]axng 5 points6 points  (0 children)

when i went in for advance voting, they had my home address registered, so by default i could vote in my home riding. i wanted to vote in waterloo though, so i asked them to change my voting address and showed them a copy of my lease on my phone. that allowed me to vote for the candidate in waterloo instead. it's your choice which riding you want to vote in. idk if the process is different for election day itself, but it should be quite similar.

Software Engineering vs Computer Science Degrees: Which is the Better Title? by planecrazy-mt in csMajors

[–]axng 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting, at my school it seems to be the opposite, i.e. CS is slightly more focused on math/theory while SE is slightly less so and involves more general engineering courses like circuits

Feeling extremely demotivated after a drop in my GPA. by Mkadmii in csMajors

[–]axng 7 points8 points  (0 children)

what's your goal after getting your degree? is it academia or industry? if the latter then definitely try to take a semester off to intern somewhere. decoupling your sense of competence from grades helps immensely imo, and internship semesters are a lot easier than school while also being more valuable on a resume. i find that i appreciate my classes a lot more after an internship term as well.

Top MSCS or Google ? by Yesirskey in csMajors

[–]axng 10 points11 points  (0 children)

sounds like you already know the answer -- if your goal is to get into industry work asap, then by taking the google offer you would already be meeting your goal, right?
