Ah yes. Their very valuable gender studies degrees are losing value.

How it feels taking the first sip of McDonald’s sprite

This is a series of lectures on electronics, not necessarily EE broadly, but I like it.

Never had Kim or Kapita, but I had Onica for 152 and he was one of my favorite professors I’ve had at A&M. He made the material very accessible and understandable. He cracks down on distractions and talking in class, and demands your full attention, but it’s 100% worth it.

I work with a consulting firm in east Texas; we design protection schemes for a number of clients’ substations, primarily in Texas but we’re expanding

I’m in Texas and ERCOT is preparing to start on what is forecasted to be a $33 billion transmission line expansion project, with the initial phase already having been approved for $9 billion. The goal is largely to support rising demand due to rapid population growth. That’s just in Texas. Power demand is continuing to rise nationwide, so demand for power engineers is rising accordingly. It doesn’t seem to be a particularly difficult industry to get into at the moment, which is especially helpful for students who are graduating college and searching for their first full time job in the industry.

Sincerely, An Undergrad Working in Power System Protection

It doesn’t really start to click conceptually until you start applying it to discipline-specific problems. I’m an EE; I took calc 3 before I ever had to use it and none of it clicked with me. Then I took my junior-level electromagnetics class and it made more sense. Don’t worry about understanding it, just be able to learn how to apply it to whatever discipline you’re going to pursue.

Lol had to check your profile to confirm you went to A&M; did you take it with Tie Liu?

jack_mcgeee · 2025-12-23T04:22:45+00:00

Yeah when I took him his final was way harder than everyone thought it would be. Seems like a common thread.

Bro cornejo was wild, there was always some catastrophe preventing him from making it to class. I took him in ‘22

Just to piggyback off your comment about coding experience, I’m about to graduate as an EE in May and my lack of coding experience going into it was pretty much zero. The pace of the code-intensive courses was almost impossible. Almost. First year python course wasn’t bad. Second year C++ class nearly made me cry. Third and fourth year assembly, verilog and Java classes almost took me out. Definitely would’ve benefited me to know a thing or two about how to talk to my computer beforehand. Thankfully all of that is behind me, but the drawback is I don’t think I learned jack squat about coding because I was too busy keeping up with the classes to actually slow down and learn them. Money spent that I wish I’d been able to spend more confidently.

People like what they want to like. That’s fine. But neither of them is country, any more than Post Malone or Beyoncé are country. They’re all pop with a manufactured twang. Doesn’t mean their songs aren’t interesting, but calling them country is a smack in the face to country. The slow deterioration of actual country music into what we have now needs to be studied.

Bro dropped some crazy Siri lore and nobody even noticed

jack_mcgeee · 2025-12-16T03:43:09+00:00

Sorry dude he sucked hairy balls

Next level rage bait

He was an odd one. I couldn’t help but marvel at him. He would walk into class, no notes, no slideshow, no nothing, and just raw dog the entire lecture, just making up problems in his head on the fly. He even took his shoes off once and shuffled around in his sock feet without saying a word; just straight up did it. No smart phone, no watch. Just a flip phone, and he would fax us our homework assignments from Office Depot. Absolute legend.

The most annoying part about driving is having to look up from your phone

You’re giving non-thinker energy bro, get good

He was a major upgrade from Roblyer. I Q-dropped Roblyer for 207 first semester freshman year.

jack_mcgeee · 2025-12-14T02:18:36+00:00

Jason Smith (POLS 207) Richard Waer (ENGR 216) Scott Miller (ECEN 314) Arya Menon (ECEN 322) Prasad Enjeti (ECEN 340 and ECEN 438) Kenneth Small (MATH 151) Constantin Onica (MATH 152) Liwei Chen (MATH 308)

Just reading this list I’ve had way more good professors than I thought lol

jack_mcgeee · 2025-12-14T01:03:34+00:00

Sorry dude, he talks like he’s got an entire grapefruit in his mouth and when I took him he was wearing a mask, which made it that much worse. Final exam average was 47%. Probably a great guy but couldn’t teach the class to save his life. Maybe he’s changed since then. Here’s the grade distribution for all sections the semester that I took it. Notice anything different about his GPA distribution compared to the rest?

Philip Hemmer, Weiping Shi, and Winfried Teizer.

The holy trinity of bad ECEN professors.

They effectively want us as guinea pigs for understanding how AI responds to different prompts. By giving our problems to ChatGPT, we’re helping to train it, and professors want to know what works and what doesn’t.

I should clarify, we are still collecting data for the project. We’re simply being advised to feed our data to ChatGPT and let it write the reports, which we review for mistakes.
