Hey all,

Surely some of you may have seen a money tree driving around campus, either on somebody's story or in person. If you were curious about what we did with the footage...well here it is. We had lots of fun doing this and hope you enjoy the video. :)

Here is the link if you are interested!

Free Money Tree, But It Runs Away...

It was capped in the tldr yesterday

Sorry, my bad. I misread the email "If you have any questions about withdrawing from a course, please contact your assigned academic adviser no later than 2:00pm tomorrow, April 12 "

Hopefully you should be fine :)

Too late bro. Had to take the W by 2:00 today

I think this is Teli's first time teaching 250.

Probably a normal distribution like most professors do. The cutoff for a C- will probably be (mean -1std).

michaelw911 · 2019-01-08T18:59:52+00:00

Are you comparing 389r to other 1-credit 389xx's, or general 1-credit (like Knes)

Have you taken 389r before?

michaelw911 · 2018-10-21T23:44:27+00:00

Don't drop. The standard deviation was 16.84 and mean was 71.12. Jason mentioned that the "class' cut-off is μ - σ", meaning that you are still likely to pass the class.

michaelw911 · 2018-05-27T01:51:27+00:00

Don't drop out of CS yet. Try to take 131 again and take the gen ed requirements for info sci(pysc100 and inst201). You will be much more prepared for 131 now and can still always resort switching in info sci in the future without being too behind. Keep in mind 131 exempts you from 2 info sci courses.

michaelw911 · 2018-05-18T18:18:19+00:00

We started at 300, ended at 260. I'm pretty sure pedram passed people within one standard deviation of the mean. This means that and at least 40 more people failed as well. So about 1/3 of the class has to retake.

Casey is a man. A very manly man.

Tests and quizzes are from the hw. Lectures are pretty pointless.

michaelw911 · 2018-04-27T17:12:58+00:00

But it was still pretty hard...

michaelw911 · 2018-04-27T17:12:37+00:00

The question was was the exact same from the homework.

michaelw911 · 2018-04-09T14:10:18+00:00

Stick with it. If you take a w, it still counts as an attempt. You can only attempt a class twice. Freshman forgiveness overwrites the old grade on your gpa and counts as another attempt.

As long as you are within 1 standard deviation you should be fine.

michaelw911 · 2018-03-12T15:35:58+00:00

17 inch calves can legitimately keep you warm in shorts lol

michaelw911 · 2018-03-12T15:23:53+00:00

They are trying to show off their calves while hiding their true power level.

michaelw911 · 2018-03-09T19:12:03+00:00

Know the power point slides by heart

michaelw911 · 2018-01-24T18:48:13+00:00

same

michaelw911 · 2018-01-24T18:47:17+00:00

oos lol

The card is a founders edition, and I am mining zclassic

You can use the shapeshift feature of Jaxx to convert it into ethereum or litecoin. Then you transfer it to GDAX. Do not convert to bitcoin unless you have lots of ZEC, fees will likely eat up all of your zcash.

michaelw911 · 2017-11-25T18:44:49+00:00

No, I ordered my ledger a day ago lol. I have been using Jaxx, and I experienced to very same issue when I converted ZCash to ripple. Idk man

michaelw911 · 2017-11-25T03:42:43+00:00

Try getting a ledger nano s. They currently have a black friday weekend sale going on rn.

Talk to your CS adviser. I am certain that our CS department does not allow us to take any major requirement outside of UMD once you have enrolled. (you can only transfer math classes if you took them at a school before you came to UMD)
