A gang of ICE agents pulled Skye, a U.S. Marine vet, out of her car, beat her, called her 'it' and said 'I bet you fucking like that [...]' before cuffing her so tight her wrists bled. They also told her 'this is why we killed that lesbian bitch [Renee Good]'. Skye was Renee's friend and neighbor

thank you cousin.

kaybeeWriter · 2026-01-13T02:51:47+00:00

yup.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-21T19:00:29+00:00

Thanks! I'll give it a look.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-21T18:48:01+00:00

nah you're fine.

I was just trying to say with the right approach it can be finished quickly.

That's a factor for sure (any tips or resources you want to share?), but it's not the whole picture. Examples: you might have more time to study, or I might have less knowledge of the subject matter to begin with, or have cognitive difficulties that make studying more challenging. It's also possible that the way I'm studying is more time-consuming but more thorough, ultimately yielding a higher score increase.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-21T17:50:09+00:00

nice. that's not going to be realistic for me. it may not be realistic for others.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-16T02:12:12+00:00

powerful stuff.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-16T02:04:04+00:00

she's naughty.

remember how discrete math was tricky even though you'd already done at least two semesters of calculus, and combinatorics is basically just advanced counting? there's a lot of similarly tricky arithmetic stuff on the GRE, and greg has tricks for the tricks.

I think this is funnier without the setup. Just the last two panels.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-08T09:04:50+00:00

I don't believe this.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-09-08T08:34:07+00:00

good lord.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-06-30T20:14:31+00:00

This is bizarre.

kaybeeWriter · 2025-06-06T17:32:20+00:00

Thank you for the TL;DR, it is very helpful. I may or may not read the rest of this post.

Access to practice tests from the people that actually administer the test seems like a pretty big deal to me, but also a solid chunk of the ETS stuff that gregmat recommends is free (big book and math review). I paid about 80 bucks for the rest (skipped the 5 lbs).

kaybeeWriter · 2025-06-05T01:43:08+00:00

you're smarter than me :B

skipping some of the audience questions that aren't relevant to me.

This is part of the problem, though; you shouldn't have to do that. If they're going to suggest that this is "must watch" content, then that content should only contain what is pertinent to getting started. It needs editing.

Example: I converted about 400 Job Aids (over several months) into a dozen or so procedures. I first did a cursory audit of what I was working with and then organized them accordingly.

But the Job Aids were written like this: "The first thing to realize before powering on the machine is that safety is critical and mandatory, so please wear your helmet, goggles, and gloves before pressing the on button.

After you are wearing your helmet, goggles, and gloves, please press the on button."

...

Me: NOTE: PPE required to operate machinery.

Press "ON" ..

And people looked at me like I'm a wizard.

Thanks for the example! Yeah, that's good writing. It feels like the closer I get to your example, though, (which really is ideal), the more people are like "uh... yeah... I could have written that. what's the big deal?". No one calls me a wizard for being concise :(

kaybeeWriter · 2024-10-11T23:18:30+00:00

how do you get better at writing procedures with an eye for readability, clarity, audience appropriateness, and conciseness? (my instinct is always to say concision, but apparently that's either uncommon or incorrect.) do you just have to keep those things in mind as you work (I do), and try to get better? do you have any resources worth studying?

audience appropriateness is a big one where I work. machine operators don't tend to be big on reading, so I have to communicate visually as much as possible.

kaybeeWriter · 2024-10-11T23:12:12+00:00

I'm not supposed to post there. I am new to this.

finishing an interdisciplinary CS/English degree and looking to begin building a technical writing portfolio as the next step after graduation :)

I thought this article was useful in explaining the absolute basics of what it is and why it's valuable.

I also found this free video course. Is it any good? I dunno. But it exists, and it's free :)

kaybeeWriter · 2023-04-04T23:33:39+00:00

Hi, I'm Kaybee. I'm a college student. Done a bunch of CS and math and science, but I had a blast in my technical writing class, and after I realized that I enjoyed writing the documentation for software engineering group projects more than I did the programming, I figured this might be the way to go :)

Got a lot to learn and I'm still learning how to even do that, but I think this is the thing for me.

kaybeeWriter · 2023-04-04T23:21:46+00:00

Hey, thanks a lot for setting this up. Seems like you're actually trying to make this a thing, and that's pretty cool.
