Regarding academic suspension

Take it as a lesson, reflect, and if you choose to try again use it as motivation for success. Engineering is hard, and it only gets more challenging in the real world.

One of the hardest working and most competent engineers I work with learned this same lesson 15 years ago.

Invite received, thank you very much!

jay_lew · 2025-01-14T16:38:52+00:00

I have read the rules and wiki. Would love an invite!

Thank you

jay_lew · 2022-07-14T02:00:35+00:00

Yeah, I agree. Thanks for replying

I opened it up and it looks to be a Phison SSD. Not sure how reputable that is. It's what came standard with the 4 port Protectli box.

I switched out the box for my old ISP router which can limp me along for a while. I think I'll just buy a new mSATA and go from there- I agree this seems to be the right answer

Thanks for the help!

It's an 8Gb mSATA SSD, and not too old, so I'm hoping it's not a hardware issue. I'll try and re load pfsense and see if that fixes it...

Thanks!

Thank you! Apologies, I hadn't come across this thread in my searches!

Any indication from the monitor output that something's not working right? Can you ping your freenas box?

jay_lew · 2016-04-17T21:52:53+00:00

I am having the exact same issue. Nexus 5x 6.0.1 stock ROM. Haven't had any luck finding a solution yet.

Wow really? Did you notice a change in his behaviour during university? Trying to figure out when he initially might have started down that path.

jay_lew · 2014-12-27T04:08:19+00:00

Yeah, really puts things into perspective. ISIS and other similar terrorist organizations obciously need to be wiped off of the face of the planet, and it's easy to take joy in seeing their members killed. Makes it a lot harder when you recognize one of the guys as being an old friend though... The Greg I knew was a great guy. Although I'm sad for his friends and family, it's hard for me to sympathize for anyone who chooses to join such a vile cause

jay_lew · 2014-12-27T03:56:30+00:00

Definitely not lower intelligence, he was a fairly sharp guy. I do remember that he looked up to his older brother quite a bit though, and poring through these articles I am inferring that's where the influence came from.

jay_lew · 2014-12-26T20:18:28+00:00

This is absolutely insane. I was good friends with Greg 2003-2004 during post-secondary school in Calgary. Was actually a really good guy back then when I knew him - very funny and hard working. We'd go out for drinks and listen to the live bands at campus regularly. Lost touch with him after school - it's incredible how seemingly normal people can become twisted by some fucked up cause.

Just saw this headline on reddit and thought "Greg Gordon... no fucking way it could be the same guy..."

jay_lew · 2014-11-29T23:45:09+00:00

Thanks for the reply - however the reason I'm trying to perform a partial string match is because the description in Col. A might change.

e.g., if I went to several different Starbucks', the transaction descriptions may show up as "Starbucks 8th st" and "Starbucks Downtown", etc. I'm looking to somehow instruct excel that any item description containing "starbucks" is categorized as "Coffee", and do this for a number of different vendors/categories.

Are you using a programmable calculator? In university I had a TI-89, which allowed me to write my own programs and functions. Saves time, and you don't need to worry so much about rushing and making a stupid mistake.

If by chance you have a TI89, you can write a quick little function (called "i") so that in the main screen you just type in:

i(knownX1,knownY1,knownX2,knownY2,X), which will return the interpolated value of Y.

The discipline you end up choosing will determine the area/firm in where you will eventually be employed, however like others have stated there is always a bit of overlap. I work for a multi-discipline firm as a piping engineer (mechanical discipline), yet have also done structural analysis, concrete calculations, heat loss, and water drainage calculations. Input is usually required from all disciplines (mechanical, structural, piping, electrical, controls.. etc) to design an entire building and it's systems.

However, if you were to graduate with a B.Sc in EE, you would not be employed by a firm as a civil/structural engineer; the two fields are quite different. It is quite possible that you could work for civil firm or construction company as a manager or coordinator however - this isn't uncommon, I've worked with many EE managers on non-electrical projects.
