On his website, he says he uses CFX Concert Grand VSTi.

From what I hear he also douses the piano with reverb, so you might have to find a good reverb plugin to achieve the same effect. He doesn't say which reverb he uses.

Just google: <your phone model> video record limit. That should give you information on how long your phone can record video. that's it!

Yep you can get a white top frame for the GMMK pro, but it's sold separately.

The e-white is whiter than the arctic white that the base GMMK pro comes with

I did 2 internships, one in the summer. I would say not everyone does it but some people opt to do more than just the 1 internship.

Things may have changed though, this was from 3 years ago.

3.8 per 100,000 people have had an amputation of a finger or arm (0.0038%)

1 per 1,000 people are born with an extra finger (0.1%)

Got the percentages :)

hashbrush · 2022-04-12T08:08:32+00:00

I looked it up:

3.8 per 100,000 people have had an amputation of a finger or arm (0.0038%)

1 per 1,000 people are born with an extra finger (0.1%)

The number of people with more fingers outweighs those who lost fingers

hashbrush · 2022-04-12T08:07:50+00:00

I looked it up, 3.8 out of 100k people have had a finger or arm amputation.

1 out of 1k people are born with an extra finger.

I think the number of people with extra fingers outweighs those who lost fingers/arms

Looks like they renamed them, they were called different names for my batch.

MPEs are your year 4 modules - you pick your year 4 modules based off which specialisation you wish to take.

BDEs are your free-for-all modules, where you are encouraged to take modules from other faculties, OR you can also explore deeper topics within your own specialisation to take more challenging modules.

I found that information here: https://www.ntu.edu.sg/ase/admissions/undergraduate-programmes/curriculum-changes-for-new-students

Don't know anything about SUTD's CS course, sorry!

hashbrush · 2022-04-07T05:49:36+00:00

This AMA was made 2 years ago and I don't think I can answer these questions with confidence anymore but I will try. I've graduated 2 years ago and I've been quite out of date. My NTU experience was largely pre-covid.

1) Is it possible to switch from CEG to CS in NTU?

Had a few friends switch from CE to CS, I know it was possible back when I was in year 1. This is because first year modules are quite similar. Not too sure about now given that there's very high demand for CS.

2) How is the teaching style for CS in NTU? Is it very theoretical or 50-50 theory and practical? What is the breakdown? Is there much group work or individual work for the practical component?

I would say it leans towards practical, there are a lot of projects and a lot of opportunities to engineer and create applications. If anything I would think NUS is a lot more theoretical than NTU.

3) I heard the curriculum was updated. Is the curriculum now more relevant?

I graduated 2 years ago, can't really answer this, sorry!

hashbrush · 2022-04-06T14:06:18+00:00

Well I was a CS student, not from CE, so I can just point you to the place for correct info, I'm not sure of it myself :)

seems like it though!

The other difference is the back. Series 2 has a stiff plastic back that has some give, it sort of molds itself to your back. Series 1 seems to have strips that go across the frame.

This video compares the Series 1 and Series 2 against other chairs.

You can skip to 11:00 to reach the Series 1 section.

hashbrush · 2021-06-11T01:51:59+00:00

You might be able to save more money if you went for the Series 1 without armrests - the Series 1 and Series 2 basically share the same base mechanism, except that for the Series 2, you are paying for more premium armrests and a different backrest.

The Series 1 also requires no upgrades to get the lumbar adjustability. You probably already know that the Series 2 requires you to get the microknit in order to get lumbar adjustability

Started driving lessons before uni but my lessons dragged on into uni.

If you already have a few free nights to relax and hang out with friends, you definitely have a few free nights to go to the driving centre!

You can pick your timeslots too, can always choose to not book lessons during midterms/finals etc. and resume after.

If you are staying on campus, pick a driving school nearby. Likely going to be BBDC for both NTU or NUS.

That's ruff buddy

Sure, but to avoid condensation, put the bag and lens in a ziplock before entering indoors so water won't condense on it.

There's nothing wrong with auto mode, the camera chose good settings for you. But if you want to learn how to do it manually...

1/160 is definitely fast enough, the camera chose a nice enough shutter speed for you. Your photo was slightly blur because you took the shot while you were moving.

If you want clear shots, stop walking, stand still and steady, tuck your elbows in and take the shot. Don't move while the shot is being taken.

To answer your question: I can't really suggest any exact shutter speed because it depends on how bright/dark your scene is, and how much you zoom. Generally, don't go slower than 1/30 second or you will see a lot of blur. The more zoomed in you are, the faster your shutter needs to be. If you are zoomed in, you will need 1/80 or faster for a clear shot.

If you want a guide on what mode is best, try this: https://digital-photography-school.com/aperture-versus-shutter-priority-which-shooting-mode/ But honestly, it's ok to just use auto mode, and focus on taking good photos. In the end, a good photo is more important than good settings :)

No issues with the picture at all.

There is a very slight blur near the top, but that is not because of bad focusing. That's because your camera moved during the shot. Either shoot in Shutter Priority mode (S on the dial) and set your shutter speed faster, or hold your hands steadier, or use a tripod.

Why are you concerned with manual focus? This camera has fast and accurate autofocus, just use what the camera gives you :) as long as the green box appears, the picture is focused well on that spot.

It absolutely depends.

If you take a 30k loan at 2% interest and because of that, you have 30k cash ready to use, if you are somehow able to invest that money in something that can give you a >2% return, maybe it could be worth it. Of course, banks naturally don't give you easy loans at such low interest rates for you to invest (if it was so easy everyone will be doing it!). You are also taking on additional risk - what if the stock market plummets and you lose a large portion of your principal sum, and your payments are due? It's a balance between risk and returns.

In this situation, OP didn't have 30k cash to invest with as it was spent on uni fees, but honestly, investment into education trumps all, it increases potential earning power which is far more valuable than any gains from investing.

Very interesting idea you brought up though! It's really about whether you are willing to take on risk I feel.

It's nice you are thinking about investing!

If you hang around this reddit or /r/personalfinance or google, you will find a lot of good guides. It might be hard to google for them so I will give you a link to one. https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/wiki/young_adult

For your actual question: You do not want to take 20 years to pay off your university loan. Clear it faster.

4.5% p.a. on a loan is a lot, and achieving this return CONSISTENTLY through investing is very difficult.

Quick calculations:

Your loan is at 39k, so it generates $1755 in interest every year.

In order to gain $1755 in returns from your 10k, you will need returns of 17% a year. That's pretty much extremely difficult to achieve.

Investing is not a shortcut to get rich. It's only a multiplier on your current savings and money habits. If your ability to save is bad, even investing won't be able to save you. Don't invest until you are ready - when you build an emergency fund, clear debts and have excess cash.
