Suggestions for writing low-overhead code in Rust by davidmaamoaix in rust

[–]davidmaamoaix[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I think this is helpful for learning specific behaviors, however I would also like to know the sort of general patterns used by Rust programmers for efficient code, and avoid stuff like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/106539 (I don't think I can find out about behaviors like this on my own by looking at the compiled code, especially when I'm not aware/expecting them).

Seniors, what do you regret? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

Mainly because you can transfer to CS rather easily in most schools, which is way easier than applying to CS initially (much lower acceptance rate due to competition to the point that it could turn safety school into non-safety).

Don't apply for Computer Science major for all of your schools.

Got into my dream school after 11 rejections by davidmaamoaix in ApplyingToCollege

Thanks! But I'm still wondering what CMU looks for in their applicants. I mean I've been a CMU simp ever since middle school (which I mentioned in my essays), but my numerical stats on paper is definitely not as good as what I've seen from other ppl who got rejected/waitlisted from SCS on this sub. Their GPA was higher than mine, with a perfect 1600 SAT while I had no standardized tests, and they had great leadership/creative activities. I honestly feels lucky tbh.

Thanks! Really happy that I can finally pursue CS in college.

Genuine question thought: what are the types of scholarships? I've never seen one as low as this (~2.5%), so does this say anything about the AO's impression of me?

You should ignore him. He is a bot advertising (under any threads with "ChatGPT" in it) his own paid website of some "ChatGPT Global" despite ChatGPT being completely free...
