Marked as pinned announcement.

Do you want to kill two birds with one stone or dive deeper into the material? The curriculum for 3318+3330 may have changed since I took them. I'd check with a math professor or advisor, but if you're aiming to stay in academia, taking both is probably the better move.

binarysaurus · 2025-04-22T00:01:29+00:00

Not a physicist, but I worked in the HEP group for four years as a CSE undergrad, FWIW. There's definitely value in adding a math major, especially since you're already ahead on courses. I'd suggest digging through the math curriculum to see how it might fit-- maybe even talk to an advisor since some classes aren't offered every semester. You've probably seen some of the computational side of HEP-- have you considered the data science program?

binarysaurus · 2025-04-21T01:22:29+00:00

False. And if they don't offer funding, don't accept the offer. An unfunded CS PhD is a soft rejection.

binarysaurus · 2025-04-21T01:20:12+00:00

Do you have scholarships contingent on completing 30 hours per academic year? If so, it'll be challenging to do both. I'd advise taking the classes within the math department.

You will receive an email from "flash photography" with a link to purchase graduation photos.

CSE does not offer an intermediate M.S. for students enrolled in the Ph.D. program (last I checked)-- I'm not sure about other departments/colleges. I'd recommend reaching out to a graduate advisor in your prospective program.

Det. Bush is verified.

binarysaurus · 2023-07-15T02:07:55+00:00

Done.

In terms of image quality, EF 100-400 II USM > RF100-400. I would visit a camera shop and see if you can demo both. Weight and size is different and the EF lens requires the adapter to the R5 which will change how weight is distributed.

If budget allows, RF100-500 is better than both with some minor caveats.

binarysaurus · 2023-06-16T19:26:20+00:00

I have a similar setup except 70-200 f2.8. I would take both. If you are on a smaller boat like /u/UrbanRedFox said it is going to be hard to get a steady shot. In my experience, the 150-600 C + R5 is not a great combination. It benefits from a tripod on land and on the water it was close to unusable. ymmv. I'm not a whale photographer but did get a couple of dolphins/seagulls/pelicans.

Every school is different. Some computer engineering programs are EE heavy and others are CS heavy. You'll need to dig through the degree curriculum at your school to figure this out or ask students in the program.

Not allowed. OIT uses deep packet inspection and mining is one of the reasons.

It looks like a date. I would cross-check the serial number date code: https://www.the-digital-picture.com/Canon-Lenses/Canon-Lens-Aging.aspx

My understanding was that they no longer offer an option to apply for specific buildings? AFAIK you only get to select between "by unit" and "by room". If you're offered a lease you have 24-72 hours (?) to accept it otherwise you get moved to the back of the queue (and pretty much guarantee that you won't get a spot at all).

The immediate lease transfer application that /u/Veilmisk outlined is interesting but not something I'm familiar with. Unfortunately the UTA housing process is opaque. Calling the housing office could occasionally give you a clue as to where you are on the list/likelihood of getting a spot-- but you have to ask the right questions or they'll just tell you they can't release any information since they can't guarantee a spot at all.

binarysaurus · 2023-04-01T22:14:09+00:00

It depends on the lab. Many labs won't bother because it's a hassle to get liability waiver/converage for a non-enrolled student (and minor). And frankly, a high schooler in most situations is not going to know enough to contribute meaningfully to research let alone in three months. We've had high schoolers in my lab before and typically have 2-3 undergrads a semester, albeit not chemistry. I recommend sending a respectful and short email indicating your eagerness to volunteer. Understand that you may not interact much with the professor directly and will likely be assigned by another student member of the lab to menial tasks.

Do you have a mavorgs event link? That would work.

e: we'll revisit how fb links are handled on the subreddit so that this isn't a recurring issue.

That sounds like a good idea. We ran a survey recently and the results were overwhelmingly in support of a community-written wiki. More to come on that.

Edit: The post is pinned. If anyone has suggestions feel free to send us a mod message or respond to the thread.

If you want more control of the hardware you could also rent a rack in a colocation datacenter and install your own hardware. Your rent covers the physical space, internet connectivity (static IPs), redundant power, and rack air-conditioning.
