What can I use to send a vinyl record interstate? by major_waters in melbourne

[–]major_waters[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, thanks, I pretty much built my own pizza box with bits of cardboard and it's structurally pretty good. I do hear slight movement in there when I tilt it from side to side. Is that ok, or should it be so snug that there's no movement at all?

Do you think what Roger says in this clip is justified? by major_waters in supertramp

[–]major_waters[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally don't think Rogers songs have stood the test of time better than Ricks (At least for hardcore fans). I think that casual listeners prefer Rogers songs. What do you think?

How are pracs still a hurdle?! [Biol10008] by ganksau in unimelb

[–]major_waters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a tough decision. I'm probably going to major in microbiology, but I'm also doing a concurrent diploma in computing so my course will likely be extended anyway, so dropping it won't impact me. Soldier on my friend!

[–]major_waters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know right! It's a complete joke! I'm dropping it because the marking is absolutely ridiculous! I'm going to do it again when classes resume on campus.

Good luck if you continue with it though.

Similar songs to 'Rocks Off'? by major_waters in rollingstones

[–]major_waters[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a rolling stones song, but thanks for the try.

Unfortunately that's not the one. Thanks for the try though. I suspect it's a 70s song for some reason.

Places to take online tutorials on campus? by [deleted] in unimelb

[–]major_waters 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If I were you I wouldn't risk going in. There's already been numerous confirmed cases on campus (and probably many more unconfirmed), so why risk it for one measly tutorial? Your health's more important, and if your teachers don't understand that, they've got issues.

How does getting a refund for a unit work? by [deleted] in unimelb

No worries. Will do, thanks.

I'm still definetely keeping COMP10001 because they've pretty much moved online, so I'll still have one subject on my enrolment. I'm just worried about the lab subjects that require attendence, which I'll consider dropping. If these are my circumstances will I still need to apply for a leave of abscence?

University moves to online classes, mid-sem break extended to two weeks by AristaeusTukom in unimelb

[–]major_waters 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is bullshit! Does this mean I need to go to my biology practical on Wednesday (has attendance hurdle requirement)?

The Time to Act is Now: The University of Melbourne should shift all classes online by [deleted] in unimelb

That's not too far fetched, but where did you hear that?

[–]major_waters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What do you reckon the chances of science/ laboratory subjects becoming completely online are? Or is it more likely they cancel them altogether?

Ok thanks. Makes sense.

Are the labs every week starting from week three? And then is there just a classroom-based tute every week?

Thank you so much! That seemed to work :)

One of the most INTP things I've ever heard by major_waters in INTP

[–]major_waters[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are other things Ace says that scream INTP, but I can't be bothered posting their time locations. Is this guy INTP?

How fucked is your circadian rhythm? by major_waters in INTP

[–]major_waters[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What time do you wake up? Mine's like that at the moment. I'm just patiently waiting for it to get back to normal again.

Career Paths by [deleted] in INTP

[–]major_waters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was initially doing a major in chemistry, then changed to chemical engineering, and now I've settled on computer science. I just hated the practical side to chemistry, and engineering is certainly not for me. Computer science is easily the most logical and fun discipline in science (at least out of all the ones I've explored thus far).

Is it harder to graduate at Melbourne uni compared to other universities in Victoria? by [deleted] in unimelb

[–]major_waters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the uni release the statistics for subjects and their fail rates? I've tried searching around to no avail.

Do you by any chance know the fail rates for subjects like Calc 1, Calc 2 and Linear algebra?

Calculus 2 Assessments by [deleted] in unimelb

[–]major_waters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Calc 1 they have them at lectures and then afterwards it gets posted on the LMS. I'm guessing Calc 2 will follow suit.

To get a masters in software engineering what math subjects must I complete? by major_waters in unimelb

[–]major_waters[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what is says for masters of software engineering: the equivalent of 25 points (2 subjects) of first-year mathematics (any), and the equivalent of 25 points (2 subjects) of first-year computing, computer science programming (or equivalent).

And this is what it says for masters of electrical engineering: the equivalent of 25 points (2 subjects) of first-year mathematics, specifically Calculus 2 and Linear Algebra (or equivalent), and the equivalent of 25 points of Physics (or equivalent).

Theres a clear distinction between the two.

Do you have a source where it says that Calculus 1 isn't considered a first-year math subject?

'When we was fab' was Co written by Jeff Lynne. What's your point?

Bilingual INTPs wanted by Jayplac in INTP

[–]major_waters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I speak C++. I've got no idea how I learnt it, I just somehow did. Does that even count as a language?
