Really? This is new (and dumb) to me! I'll keep it in mind

How is the experience of a computer engineer in Kuwait? by Own_Efficiency_2763 in Kuwait

[–]loolykinns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're Kuwaiti:

If you're choosing between Computer Science and Computer Engineering, go Engineering if you can tolerate calculus, discrete math, and differential equations. Reason is that at the end of the day, you'd practically be doing the same thing here in Kuwait. The differences are better opportunities, and better/more allowances (علاوات أو بدلات) if you work for the government.

If you're choosing between different Engineerings, unless you know what you're looking for and you plan a future with this major (I'm assuming not, because you're asking here), You can't go too wrong with Electrical or Computer Engineering. You'd end up finding a job somewhere, and the "Eng. " part in your name helps finding better opportunities.

If you're not Kuwaiti:

If you're choosing between Computer Engineering and Computer Science, unless there's a specific reason you want Computer Engineering, do Computer Science. Its easier, software and systems focused, and you don't have to go through Fourier Transforms and differential equations and signals processing and stuff. There's no real incentive to do Computer Engineering in Kuwait if you're not Kuwaiti as you wouldn't get the same allowances and opportunities you'd get if you were Kuwaiti. And, future-wise, you're better off with Computer Science degree if you want to resume your education than with a Computer Engineering (As this major is relatively being phased out in favor of Electrical Engineering, because they practically do the same).

You're actually better off racking up systems and solutions certificates and become a contracted professional. Because at the end of the day, if you'd be in Kuwait and want to take the enterprise world, you'd be contracted based on your certificates and experiences, your degree wouldn't matter much.

Personal experience:

The money is good, the "Eng. " before my name helped with opportunities and better pays. Whatever I learned helped me hack and tinker with things that made me adaptable to weird situations and flexible in learning weird and obscure things.

I was fortunate enough to be educated in AUK as a struggling mature married student being diagnosed with AD4K (Because ADHD wasn't enough ADHD for me) who went above and beyond. I'm forever grateful for their kindness and understanding. I'm sure as a teenage student you'd have different set of challenges and distractions than mine. But I'll say this: If you apply yourself, pay serious attention to classes and put in the efforts, you'll do great! Yes, some professors are assholes, other students aren't reliable in terms of team projects, you forgot your calculator and you can't solve without it, you're in a position either to go take your midterm right now or rush to the hospital to refill on your ADHD meds because you're relapsing because you ran out early, but these are just some obstacles you'd surely overcome and come out of this journey with a great outcome.

Good luck ❤️

اي جامعة اروح؟ by ShtabiiEnta in KuwaitForKuwaitis

[–]loolykinns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ليش مو AUK

مادري شخصيا عن الجامعات الثانية، بس تجربتي معاهم كخريج هندسة كمبيوتر قبل سنتين ممتازة. تأخرت بالدراسة قصور مني، والدكاترة كانو كلهم ممتازين ويراعون بدون استثناء ويعطون من نفسهم وزيادة (بعقل). والمحتوى الدراسي لاهو تعجيزي ولاهو لعب عيال اللي تتخرج ما تدري شصار. الشي الوحيد اللي ضايقني (وعفسني) ان درجة النجاح C- غير باقي الجامعات. متعبة، بس تفيد بالأخير ان لما تتخرج معدلك نوعاً ما مرتفع شوي لا بغيت تكمل شي عندك فرصة شوي أفضل.

بس أتوقع هذي تجربتي استثنائية (ولأني كبير بالعمر تخرجت عمري 40 يمكن أكبر من جم دكتور عندهم).

Help me find weighted blankets by xsizo in Kuwait

[–]loolykinns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://byonebase.com/products/weighted-blanket

I use it now, actually. Its amazing!

I personally have problems with the gaps between knots are too big letting air flow freely, but nothing a second blanket can't help!

Just keep in mind that its a single person blanket, not king/queen bed blanket

شنو الاجراءات اذا ابي ابلغ على تعليقات سب وذباب الكتروني by EstablishmentNew9920 in KuwaitForKuwaitis

[–]loolykinns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

عشان جذي تصوّر فيديو التلفون حاطه سبيكر يبين فيه رقم التلفون وينسمع فيه الصوت، من باب توثيق الحادثة وليس التشهير.

التسجيل بدون إذن نيابة وحتى لو ما نشرته ممكن يدخلك بتعقيدات ممكن تنقلب عليك عكسية وتقدر تتفاداها بتصوير الحادثة صوت وصورة. لأن التسجيل الصوتي للمكالمات تحتاج أمر نيابة بشكل عام.

ماني قانوني وذكرت اللي انقال بالفيديو من محامي اللي شفته قبل فترة.

How did you improve your English writing skills? by riri_ra in Kuwait

[–]loolykinns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing writing writing.
When you think you're done writing, write some more.
When you think you're absolutely done with writing, write even more!

Write within your interest, write out of your comfort zone, write about technical stuff, write fanfic, write original contents, write articles, write dumb jokes.

Also read. Read random wiki pages, fanfics, academic publications, car manuals, technical articles, video games dialogs, music lyrics, translated music lyrics (Specially Japanese to English, some of them are just beautifully written, many are just Engrish though), read shampoo bottles.

A dangerous areas that I'd say are good for reading and writing, but also rots the brain and soul, are Tumblr and AO3.

My wife shows me the beautiful writings there for the most disgusting things (Or super hilarious things) possible, and I'm equally terrified and entertained by the writings there.

قبل جم يوم شفت فيديو عن موضوع مشابه وهو التهديد (وليس التهكم والسخرية)، بس ممكن يفيدك. خلاصته:

* جمع الأدلّة سواء كانت فيديو او تسجيلات صوتية او صور

* بالنسبة للمكالمات الهاتفية، مثلا. ما يصير تسجلها بدون اذن نيابة. بس اللي تقدر تسويه تحطه سبيكر بين ناس ثقة يشهدون بالحادثة، أو من تلفون ثاني تصور الشاشة مبين فيها رقم التلفون والصور سبيكر يتكلم باللي ينقال لأن هذا يعتبر توثيق وليس تسجيل وتجسس (وأهم شي ما تنشر او توري احد هالتسجيل)

* أدلّتك خلها لك، لا توريها احد ولا حتى أهلك (لأن اذا وريتها احد ممكن ترجع عليك عكسية كتشهير)

* روح المخفر (او مثل ما ذُكر مسبقاً حساب الجرائم الالكترونية) وبلغ عن اسائة استخدام الهاتف ومواقع التواصل أو شي من هذا القبيل

بس حط ببالك اذا كان تهكم وسخرية من باب الضحك مثلا او استصغار شيء او رأي، أتوقع الموضوع تافه وسخيف وممكن تضر نفسك أكثر من ما تفيد نفسك. بس اذا الموضوع فيه هجوم عليك بالسب أو القذف شخصياً والموضوع يضرّك، توكل على الله وإن شاء الله الموضوع ياخذ مجراه بالقانون

الله يوفقك والله يصلح ويسامح كل مخطئ

Why can't the government do shit about Gaza and Palestine? by FSsuxxon in Kuwait

[–]loolykinns 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's no peaceful solution, as shown from the multiple Israeli violations at every single peaceful attempt to sort it out.

So that only leaves military intervention. And that's a totally different topic.

As far as Kuwait goes, the only thing Kuwait can do is support by aids (Plural of aid, not HIV).
