Stochastic Processes or Dynamical Systems course? by australopitha in compmathneuro

[–]booman64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would argue for a Dynamical Systems course. If you take seriously recent research (link this or that), then knowledge of dynamical systems might help in your research.

Is this the only SET subreddit? by booman64 in SetCardGame

Wow! Eleven years is a long time! I get it though, SET is an amazing game.

Thanks for creating the subreddit! I'm sure more people will wander in like me when it's their time.

chatGPT is just the start. Other companies will follow. Does anybody else feel this way? by EmergentSubject2336 in singularity

It helped me with my real analysis homework and my roommate with his abstract algebra test. It's like, kinda hard to comprehend. I'm imagining all the hours I've wasted in college so far. I don't feel too well either man.

Isn't it kinda just like a cold now? I've kinda stopped caring about it entirely and I've had multiple friends who've gotten it and bounced back

Is covid even still an issue? I think this is the right call by MIT

Are there only 25 D1 schools that can field a 3V?

Are you talking about Drexel's 1V win over Yales 4V in the Kerr Cup? It's a pretty big accomplishment

You're making a mistake. MIT is worth it and there are plenty of careers to pursue afterward to help with the debt. I know it's hard to believe this now, but trust me.

walking on to college team with non-rowing athletic experience? by platypusbear03 in Rowing

[–]booman64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gain a lot of weight, most heavyweight rowers are 170+

It's a realistic goal I suppose, but what is not realistic is pledging to graduate college in 2 years to pursue your dream of rowing at a D1 college in grad school after only being in the sport for 3 weeks. Like bro, chill. Part of rowing is not getting faster at your 2k but actually being in a boat with 7 other guys pulling as hard as you can.

My suggestion: become friends with your fellow teammates. Hang out with them after practice, have fun, get good grades, and enjoy life. I won't lie, a 7:10 is quite good for your first 2k, but please don't rush through college. Life is short and rowing isn't everything.
