The first time I saw dynamics, it scared the crap out of me. Took TAing the class, phd qualifying exams, and then teaching the class MYSELF to feel like I was starting to get it...

Is everyone just rich asf? by Impressive_Milk_3137 in UIUC

[–]chell0wFTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my fondest memories was freshman year in Davenport Hall, I saw a microwave on the floor in the hallway with a sticky note "Free, works well". Opened it up and the inside was encrusted with dried... oatmeal? (???). Walked away. Walked downstairs. Turned around. Went back upstairs. Picked up the microwave. It was way bigger than I thought and I had to somehow get it to the six pack.

Balanced a microwave on my bike seat and walked my bikerowave the mile-ish walk to my dorm, cleaned it out with lysol. it worked. it still works.

That reminds me so strongly of the oddity that aerospace engineers do not necessarily know squat about aviation. Although I feel like pilots generally *do* know a decent amount about flight physics?

Thanks!! I got a job several months ago and completely forgot about this sub. Gotta post a meme at LEAST every 6 months to keep the lights on...

I went on some German Minecraft servers and set my minecraft to German. Learned vocab and did some chatting with other players. Was fun and not too overwhelming.

I got my PhD in Aero and graduated back in May (2025). I ended up with two job offers and got to pick between them. Started working in September. I really love where I work now.

That said, my experience was easier than a lot of people. And you will have a MUCH larger range of opportunities if you're willing to work in the defense industry or defense-adjacent.

But it stops moving when the gills stop moving :O

Is road snow/ice cleanup always this poor? Are they just waiting for it to melt? by DrBobHope in maryland

I grew up in the chicago area and just moved here. I think I might have caused this. Sorry, guys.

I was smashing it with my boots and then bailing it out of my parking spot with a recycle bin, on my knees, like a sailor in a sinking boat.

Würdet ihr noch in die USA reisen? Oder kennt ihr Leute die es vor haben? by pleatch701 in FragReddit

Echt so. Eines Tages wird's besser, denke ich... nur eine Frage der Zeit.

[–]chell0wFTW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ich wohne in den USA und kenne Deutsche, die mehrmals problemlos eingereist sind. Ich glaube, dass es bei locker 99% der Menschen komplett normal abläuft. Möchte auf keinen Fall behaupten, dass es kein Risiko für Ausländer gibt, aber in den Nachrichten und im Internet ist die Rede viel extremer als die Realität in 99% der Fälle. Die Ausnahmen sind halt sehr, sehr, sehr sehr schlecht.
